Throwing tomatoes-Spain(西班牙) Spain takes “tomatoes fights” to a whole new level. But the tomatoes are being thrown, not eaten. The festival takes place on the last Wednesday in August.Trucks(卡车)carry tomatoes into the square. People rush to the tomatoes and throw them into the crowd.
Rolling cheese-England This festival is celebrated on the last Monday in May. It takes place on Cooper's Hill. A large wheel of cheese(奶酪)is rolled down Cooper's Hill. The festival is actually a race where people run down the hill after the rolling cheese. The first person to cross the finish line at the bottom of the hill wins the cheese.
Burning man-the United States The Burning Man Festival lasts a week, and it is from the Monday before Labor Day to Labor Day(which falls on the first Monday in September in America). The festival takes place in the Black Rock Desert. The best part of the festival is the burning of a large sculpture of a man.
Pouring water-Thailand The Songkran Festival is the celebration of the New Year in Thailand. Rather than a single day,Thailand celebrates the New Year from April 13th to April 15th.

Did you know that vocabulary(词汇) is more important than grammar If you have good vocabulary, you can communicate successfully , even if the grammar is not completely perfect.
However,one common problem is learning new words and then forgetting them. So when you want to use a new word in a conversation, you can’t remember it at that moment.Does this often happen to you The reason for this difficulty is that most students try to learn vocabulary by studying lists and dictionaries and remembering the words. But it may not work if you don’t have a very good memory.
The best way to learn vocabulary and remember the words successfully, is to learn new words and use them at once. You can do this with a very simple exercise. Every time you learn a new word,for example,from an English lesson or an article,write it down in your vocabulary notebook. Writing is more active than just reading a definition(释义).You should write the word,the definition in English or translation, one example sentence from the article or dictionary and one example sentence that you create.
Imagine you just learn the word “generous”, write in your vocabulary notebook: generous(adjective), definition-giving or willing to give freely. Example one,from the article:Thanks for paying for my dinner, you’re very generous. Example two, my example: My brother is generous because he volunteers at the animal shelter on weekends. It’s best if your example sentences are true to your life,because this creates a personal connection with the new word. The next day, read your vocabulary notebook again and try to add one more example sentence using the new word. It’s helpful for you to remember it. These two simple steps-writing the word and using it at once--help you remember and use new words.
Do you have a vocabulary notebook If not, start now.
24. What does the underlined word“it”in Paragraph 2 refer to
A. The problem. B. The new word. C.The conversation.
25. What’s the correct order of the following steps of taking vocabulary notes
① Make your own example sentence.
② Write the word, its English definition or translation.
③Copy an example sentence from the article or dictionary.
④Read your notebook again and add one more example sentence.
A. ②③①④ B.②③④① C.③④②①
26. How can we make the best example sentences according to the writer
A. By asking for help from friends.
B. By explaining words’ definitions.
C. By connecting them with our life.
27. What's the best title for the passage
A. Tips for Translating Words
B. Advice on Using Grammar
C. Ways of Learning New Words

I was in a strange city and I didn’t know the city at all . And what ' s more , I couldn’t speak a word of the language . After having spent the first day in the town center , I decided to lose my way on my second day , since I was sure that this was the better way of getting to know the strange city . I got on the first bus in the morning , rode on it for several stops , and then got off and walked on . The first two hours passed happily enough . Then I decided to turn back to my hotel for lunch . After walking about for some time , I decided I had better ask the way . The trouble was that the only word I knew of the language was the name of the street in which I lived and even that was pronounced badly .
I stopped to ask a friendly - looking newspaper seller . He smiled and handed me a paper . I shook my head and repeated the name of the street and he put the paper into my hands . I had to give him some money and went on my way . Then I met a policeman . I asked him at once . The policeman listened to me carefully , smiled and took me by the arm . There was a strange look in his eyes as he pointed left and right and left again . I thanked him politely and began walking on . About an hour passed and I found that the houses were getting fewer and green fields could be seen on either side of me . I had come all the way into the country .
The thing left for me to do was to find the nearest bus stop .

Giving Directions in Different Places
If you ask people of different countries " Could you tell me the way to the post office ". you will get different answers .
In Japan , people use landmarks （路标） instead of street names . For example , the Japanese will say to travelers ," Go straight down to the corner . 31 The post office is across from the bus stop ."
In Kansas , America , there are no towns or buildings within （在……之内） miles . So instead of landmarks , people will tell you directions and distance （距离）. For example , people will say ," Go north two miles . 32 "
People in Greece sometimes do not even try to give directions . They will often say ," Follow me . 33 Sometimes if a person doesn’t know the answer to your question , he or she , like a New Yorker , might say ," Sorry , I have no idea ." But in Yucatan , Mexico , no one answers " I don ' t know ." 34 They usually give an answer , but often a wrong one . A visitor can often get lost in Yucatan !
But one thing will help you everywhere . You might not understand a person ' s words , but maybe you can understand his or her body language .He or she will usually point to the correct direction . Go on in that direction and you may find the post office !
根据短文内容，从下列选项中选出能填入文中空白处的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余选项。
A . Turn east , and then go another mile . B . Turn left at a big hotel and go past a fruit market . C . People there think " I don ' t know ." is not polite . D .

The Mid-Autumn Festival is a very important Chinese festival. It falls on the 15th day of August. A few days before the festival, everyone in the family will help to make the house clean and beautiful. Lanterns will be hung in front of the house.
On the evening of the festival, there will be a big family dinner. People who work far away from their homes will try to come back for the reunion(团聚). After dinner, people will light the lanterns which are usually red and round. Children will play with their own toy lanterns happily.
At night, the moon is usually round and bright. People can enjoy the moon while eating mooncakes which are the special food for this festival.
They can look back on the past and look forward to the future together. It is said that there was a dragon in the sky. The dragon wanted to swallow up the moon.
