On December 24, kids around the world waited for Santa Claus (圣诞老人). They thought that the fat, white-bearded man would bring them gifts. But do you know that some people would rather keep Santa out of the door?
Last month, 10 doctoral (博士的) students from Tsinghua, Peking and Renmin Universities said Santa Claus wasn't welcome in China.
“Foreign holidays like Christmas are now very popular in China, while fewer and fewer people celebrate traditional Chinese festivals like the Dragon Boat Festival,” said the students in a public letter.
They asked people to stop sending Christmas cards and giving gifts to their children. Instead, they said, Chinese should spend more time on traditional festivals.
They have lots of support. In Hunan, several people went out on the street on Christmas Day. They made poems and wrote Chinese calligraphy (书法).
“Rather than spending money on Christmas, we should care more about our own culture,” said one of them.
But others have different ideas. “Celebrations of foreign holidays help us know more about foreign cultures. It is good for us to make friends, ” said Liu Yang, a 14-year-old boy from Shanghai.
Sun Long, 13, from Beijing, sees the celebration as a way to make people happier and closer. “My school held a big party on Christmas Day. We played games and shared gifts with each other. I think we have got closer,” he said.
16. Why did some people not like Santa Claus? Because ________.
A. he was fat and white-bearded
B. he was thin
C. he stopped some Chinese from caring more about their own culture
D. he had lots of presents but usually stayed out of the door
17. Which of the following is true?
A. Some college students wanted Chinese people to pay more attention to traditional Chinese festivals.
B. All students are interested in foreign holidays.
C. More students want to stop spending more time on Chinese culture.
D. Fewer people like the Dragon Boat Festival.
18. What did people do in China after the 10 students' letter came out?
A. They stopped sending Christmas cards and giving gifts to their children.
B. They made poems and wrote Chinese calligraphy.
C. Few of them cared more about their own culture.
D. Many of them supported the students' idea.
19. What did the student called Sun Long think of foreign holidays?
A. It was good to make friends.
B. It was helpful to know more about cultures.
C. It was a happy time to relax and get closer.
D. It was a good time to get gifts.
20. The best title for this passage is ________.
A. Santa Claus B. A Public Letter

17. A 点拨：细节理解题。根据第四段中的Instead, they said, “Chinese should spend more time on traditional festivals.”可知大学生提出那些观点目的是想让人们更加关注传统的节日。
18. D 19.C
20. B 点拨：标题归纳题。阅读文章知，清华、北大、人大的10名博士生写了一封公开信提议中国人应该多关注中国传统的节日，而不是去关注外国节日。围绕此封公开信，有人表示支持，有人表示反对。因此用A Public Letter作为本文的标题是非常合适的。
