Ⅲ.阅读理解
A
I was on an amazing trip with my wife, following Marco, our guide to experience the festival of Qoyllur Rit'i which takes place at 4,300 metres in the southern Andes of Peru, a festival which few foreign tourists ever get to see.
People were travelling to this festival from all over Peru.Among them there were old men, mothers with small babies and children all following the same route.Many of them had horses carrying their food, blankets and tents.Some, like us, had come by bus to Mahuayani, the nearest town, and were walking up from there.
We continued climbing for another hour and a half before reaching the Sinakara valley.There we looked down on a flat plain of open grassland.Right across this flat piece of ground people were putting up tents of blue plastic to protect themselves from the rain.Marco chose a spot to put up our tent.
Not far away in an open market, people were buying tiny houses, cars or small pictures showing a baby or something else.Marco explained that these represented something the pilgrims(朝圣者)wanted.They would take them and bury them in the mountain.This, they believed, would make sure that what they wished for would come true in the year to come.
After dinner we went to bed fully clothed inside our sleeping bags.We were up early the next morning, the main day of the festival.The Ukukus men wearing black masks and bright costumes, had left their tents in the early hours to climb the nearest mountain by the light of the full moon.They stopped to dance from time to time, believing this would bring luck to their villages.As they came down, they were joined by groups of dancers in traditional costumes.They performed wherever there was a space.Although there did not seem to be anyone organising them, the whole festival had become a huge harmonious celebration.

The traditional Chinese Longtaitou Festival, or Dragon Head-Raising Festival, falls on the second day of the second lunar month every year, and recognizes the start of spring and farming.This year it falls on March 14.
Ancient people believed that after this day, rainfall increases because the rain-bringing Dragon King has awoken from his winter sleep.A well-known phrase goes, “Er yue er, long tai tou”， meaning “On the second day of the second lunar month, the dragon lifts his head.”
The festival celebrates ancient Chinese agrarian culture, and while some of traditional ways to celebrate it are no longer practised, others continue to exist.
The most famous tradition is getting a haircut.Some believe that going to the barber on this day gets rid of bad luck, while others believe getting a haircut during the first month of the lunar calendar brings bad luck.Another saying warns that cutting your hair in the first lunar month will cause your uncle to die.Although today few pay attention to it, it was once a tradition to line up outside barbershops on the day of Longtaitou.
People eat tofu balls in East China's Fujian Province during the festival, and often make tofu and vegetable balls to pray for family and business.Fried beans are the traditional festival food for people in parts of Shandong Province.Eating chengyao cakes, which are made with sticky rice, during the festival is a tradition in Suzhou，East China's Jiangsu Province, owing to the saying, “If you eat chengyao cakes on Longtaitou, your waist won't hurt all year.” Meanwhile other foods, like noodles, dumplings，and spring rolls, are named after dragon body parts to mark the day.Noodles are dragon's beard (long xu), dumplings are dragon's ears (long er), and spring rolls are dragon's scales (long lin)．

语篇导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国新年常见的三种装饰物——橘子树、富贵竹和梅花枝，以及它们的美好寓意。
解析：
1．celebration　考查名词。由空前的不定冠词a可知此处应填名词。故填celebration。
2．carries　考查时态及主谓一致。本文通篇对中国新年装饰物进行一般性介绍，所以用一般现在时；句子主语是动名词短语decorating with...，所以谓语动词用第三人称单数形式。故填carries。
3．coming　考查非谓语动词。一个句子不能有两个谓语动词，而且空前的the earth与come是主动关系，故用现在分词作后置定语。故填coming。
4．than　考查固定搭配。more than“不仅仅是，不只是”，此处表示“橘子树不仅仅是装饰物，它们还是好运和财富的象征”。故填than。
5．decorated　考查非谓语动词。see sth.done看到某物被……，此处表示“看到橘子树上装点着红包和祝福好运的信息”。them与decorate是被动关系，所以用过去分词作宾补。故填decorated。
6．Certainly　考查副词。此处修饰整个句子，用副词certainly，注意首字母要大写。故填Certainly。
7．with　考查固定搭配。be associated with“与……有关，与……相联系”。故填with。
8．to care　考查固定句式。sth.is easy to do“某事很容易做”。不定式用主动形式表达被动含义。故填to care。
9．beautiful　考查形容词。由于空后的中心词是名词branches，所以只能用形容词。故填beautiful。
10．the　考查冠词。the first to do sth.“第一个做某事的……”，不定式短语作后置定语。故填the。

It was my first time spending Spring Festival in China with my host family.Spring Festival is highly valued by every Chinese family.Preparations began a week before the festival.First, the house was cleaned from top to bottom.My host mother Mrs Chen said this was to sweep away the dirt of the past year and get ready for the new year.
Next, the Chinese character Fu was attached upside down to our front door.It is believed that when Fu is put upside down, happiness arrives.The character looked really cool.
The greatest excitement began the night before Spring Festival. Fireworks were being let off across the city, suddenly lighting up the night sky.Children were covering their ears but with an expectant look on their faces.Mrs Chen said that it was to scare away the monster Nian.The fireworks were a lot of fun! We then sat together to enjoy a big dinner, wishing everyone a happy new year.

然而，无论节日多么迥异，在世界各地，分享快乐、感恩、友爱或和平的精神存在于所有节日之中。
●重点句型
句中no matter how different they may seem是一个让步状语从句。句型公式“no matter＋疑问词”引导状语从句。
类似句型还有：
However/No matter how far away we are, we feel close to each other.
无论我们距离有多远， 我们都感觉彼此很亲近。

(1)no matter what/whose/which/...修饰名词时，该名词必须紧跟其后；no matter how修饰形容词或副词时，该形容词或副词也必须紧跟其后。
(2)“no matter＋疑问词”结构可以和“疑问词＋-ever”结构互换引导状语从句。“疑问词＋-ever”结构还可以引导名词性从句，而“no matter＋疑问词”结构不能引导名词性从句。
引导名词性从句的whoever相当于anyone who，anybody who；whatever相当于anything that。在这种情况下，whoever，whatever相当于定语从句中的“先行词＋关系代词”，它们不能换成no matter who/what等。

①___________________________ you do, if you want to become great at it, you need to work day in and day out.
②____________ wants to go to the Antarctic must be physically strong.
