The traditional Chinese Longtaitou Festival falls on that day.And it means the start of farming.Ancient people believed that after this day, there would be more rainfall because the Dragon King woke upfrom his winter sleep.

Today, people celebrate the Longtaitou Festival indifferent ways. The most famous tradition is getting a haircut. Some people believe that cutting the hair on theLongtaitou Festival can bring them good luck. They think getting a haircut during the first month in the Chinesecalendar will bring bad luck.People in different places eat some special food to celebrate this festival.Eating chengyao cakes (a kind ofrice cake) is a tradition in Suzhou.

It fills the room with joy. This rainy afternoon,she sits comfortably with her friends, Setsuko and Matsu Taira, cross-legged on a tatami mat drinking tea.Ushi has recently taken a new job. She also tried to run away from home after an argument with herdaughter, Kikue. Not long ago, she started wearing perfume (香水), too. When asked about the perfume, she jokesthat she has a new boyfriend. Predictable behavior for a young woman, perhaps, but Ushi is 103.With an average life expectancy of 78 years for men and 86 years for women, Okinawans are among theworld’s longest-lived people. This is undoubtedly partly because of Okinawa’s warm and inviting climate andbeautiful scenery. Senior (年长的) citizens living in these islands usually enjoy years free from disabilities (残障).A lean diet of food grown on the island and the idea of moderation (适度) may also be the reasons. Theyeat until their stomachs are 80 percent full and they don’t eat fat from the meat. In fact, this healthy way of eating试卷第 9 页,共 20 页was born of hardship. Ushi Okushima grew up in a poor family; her family grew sweet potatoes, which wereincluded in every meal. “We experienced terrible hunger during World War II,” Setsuko recalls.Many older Okinawans belong to a moai, a support organization whose members give and receive help toand from the organization throughout life. Ikigai may be another key to their success. The word means “whatmakes one’s life worth living,” and it is something that is different for each person. “My ikigai is right here,” saysUshi with a slow sweep of her hand that points to her friends Setsuko and Matsu. “If they die, I will wonder why Iam living.”33.Which of the following are mentioned as reasons for the Okinawan’s longevity (长寿) ① their social relationships ② their diet③ their religious (宗教的) beliefs ④ their natural environmentA.①②③④ B.①③④ C.②③④ D.①②④34.In Paragraph 4, the word “lean” is closest in meaning to________.A.rich B.low-fat C.unhealthy D.balanced35.What do we learn about Okinawans according to the article A.Many older Okinawans help each other in the organization moai.B.To Okinawans, friendship is the only thing that makes life meaningful.C.Okinawans live hard lives, with sweet potatoes included in every meal.D.Most Okinawans can live a long life without any painful illness.36.Which suggestion would Ushi Okushima and her friends probably agree with most A.Don’t have a man in your life. B.Retire from work as early as possible.C.Act young and you will feel young. D.Start wearing perfume at an old age.【答案】33.D 34.B 35.A 36.C【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,文章以 103 岁的 Ushi Okushima 为例,介绍了冲绳人长寿的现象,分析了可能的原因。33.细节理解题。根据文中“This is undoubtedly partly because of Okinawa’s warm and inviting climate andbeautiful scenery.”可知,冲绳温暖宜人的气候和美丽的景色(自然环境)是长寿原因之一 ;“A lean diet offood grown on the island and the idea of moderation (适度) may also be the reasons.”表明饮食也是长寿原因 ;“Many older Okinawans belong to a moai, a support organization whose members give and receive help to andfrom the organization throughout life.”说明社交关系对长寿有作用,文中未提及宗教信仰与长寿有关。故选 D。试卷第 10 页,共 20 页34.词句猜测题。根据文中“they don’t eat fat from the meat”可知,他们不吃肉中的脂肪 ,由此可推测“leandiet”是低脂肪饮食,与 low-fat 相近,故选 B。35.细节理解题。根据文中“Many older Okinawans belong to a moai, a support organization whose members giveand receive help to and from the organization throughout life.”可知,许多年长的冲绳人在 moai 组织中互相帮助 ,故选 A。36.推理判断题。文中提到 103 岁的 Ushi Okushima 有新工作,和朋友喝茶,还开玩笑说有新男友等,展现出她心态年轻,行为也很有活力,由此可推断她和朋友们可能认同“表现得年轻,你就会感觉年轻”,故选 C。DMole (鼹鼠) came out of his hole near the river bank(河岸).

He wantsthem to say, ‘Oh, what a clever Toad!’ and things like that. He’s always up to something.

It fills the room with joy. This rainy afternoon,she sits comfortably with her friends, Setsuko and Matsu Taira, cross-legged on a tatami mat drinking tea.Ushi has recently taken a new job. She also tried to run away from home after an argument with herdaughter, Kikue. Not long ago, she started wearing perfume (香水), too. When asked about the perfume, she jokesthat she has a new boyfriend. Predictable behavior for a young woman, perhaps, but Ushi is 103.With an average life expectancy of 78 years for men and 86 years for women, Okinawans are among theworld’s longest-lived people. This is undoubtedly partly because of Okinawa’s warm and inviting climate andbeautiful scenery. Senior (年长的) citizens living in these islands usually enjoy years free from disabilities (残障).A lean diet of food grown on the island and the idea of moderation (适度) may also be the reasons. They试卷第 5 页,共 11 页eat until their stomachs are 80 percent full and they don’t eat fat from the meat. In fact, this healthy way of eatingwas born of hardship.

Ikigai may be another key to their success. The word means “whatmakes one’s life worth living,” and it is something that is different for each person. “My ikigai is right here,” saysUshi with a slow sweep of her hand that points to her friends Setsuko and Matsu. “If they die, I will wonder why Iam living.”33.Which of the following are mentioned as reasons for the Okinawan’s longevity (长寿) ① their social relationships ② their diet③ their religious (宗教的) beliefs ④ their natural environmentA.①②③④ B.①③④ C.②③④ D.①②④34.In Paragraph 4, the word “lean” is closest in meaning to________.A.rich B.low-fat C.unhealthy D.balanced35.What do we learn about Okinawans according to the article A.Many older Okinawans help each other in the organization moai.B.To Okinawans, friendship is the only thing that makes life meaningful.C.Okinawans live hard lives, with sweet potatoes included in every meal.D.Most Okinawans can live a long life without any painful illness.36.Which suggestion would Ushi Okushima and her friends probably agree with most A.Don’t have a man in your life. B.Retire from work as early as possible.C.Act young and you will feel young. D.Start wearing perfume at an old age.DMole (鼹鼠) came out of his hole near the river bank(河岸).

He’s famous. I look forward to meeting him.”“I knew Toad’s father,” Badger said. “He was a fine animal. But as for Toad... he’s a show-off.”“What’s a show-off ” Mole asked.“A show-off, my dear Mole,” Badger explained, “is an animal who tries hard to impress others. He wantsthem to say, ‘Oh, what a clever Toad!’ and things like that. He’s always up to something.
