WHY DO WE CELEBRATE FESTIVALS？
　　Festivals are celebrated all around the world.They have a wide range① of origins②， such as the seasons of the year， religions③， famous figures④， and important events.Every festival has its different customs and unique charms⑤.However，[1] no matter how different they may seem， all over the world， the spirit of sharing joy⑥， gratitude⑦， love， or peace is common in all festivals.
　　Of all the traditional festivals， the harvest⑧ festival can be found in almost every culture.[2]This important agricultural⑨ festival takes place after all the crops⑩ have been gathered in. People celebrate to show that they are grateful for the year’s supply of food.In ancient Egypt， the harvest festival was celebrated during the springtime — the Egyptian harvest season.It featured a parade and a great feast with music， dancing， and sports.Today， in some European countries， people decorate churches and town halls with flowers and fruit， and get together to celebrate over a meal.During the Mid-Autumn Festival in China， families gather to admire the shining moon and enjoy delicious mooncakes.
　　[1]“no matter＋特殊疑问词”引导让步状语从句，意为“无论……”。
　　[2]句中的after引导时间状语从句，意为“在……之后”。
　　Customs play a significant role in festivals， but sometimes they can change over time.With the development of modern society and the spread of new ideas， some traditions may fade away and others may be established.One example is the typical Chinese Spring Festival custom of lighting firecrackers to drive away the evil spirits and celebrate the new year.Nowadays， many big cities have given up this custom in order to avoid air pollution.[3]Another example is Halloween， which slowly became an exciting festival for children， in spite of its religious origins.
　　[4]Festivals are becoming more and more commercial ， with businesses taking advantage of the celebrations.Online shopping websites and social media apps have made it much easier for the public to spend more on gifts for their loved ones.Although some believe festivals should not be commercialised ， others believe the increase in spending is good for the economy and public happiness.
　　Festivals are an important part of society.They reflect people’s wishes， beliefs ， faiths ， and attitudes towards life.They are occasions that allow us to relax and enjoy life， and forget about our work for a little while.They help us understand where we came from， who we are， and what to appreciate.And if you study festivals carefully， you may be surprised to find that different cultures actually have a lot in common after all.
　　[3]句中which引导非限制性定语从句。
　　[4]句中使用了with复合结构，即“with＋宾语＋宾语补足语”；动词-ing短语taking advantage of the celebrations作宾语补足语，用于补充说明宾语businesses的情况。

我们为什么庆祝节日？
　　世界各地都庆祝各种节日。节日的由来五花八门，比如时节、宗教、著名人物及重大事件。每个节日都有它不同的风俗和独特的魅力。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。
　　在所有的传统节日中，丰收节几乎可见于每一种文化之中。这一重大的农业节日在庄稼全部收割后举行。人们举行庆祝活动，对这一年收获的食物表达感恩。在古埃及，人们于春季（即埃及的丰收季）庆祝丰收节。庆祝活动主要是游行和丰盛的筵席，载歌载舞，并伴有体育活动。如今，在一些欧洲国家，人们用鲜花和水果装饰教堂和市政厅，聚在一起共享大餐，以示庆祝。在中国的中秋节，家家户户欢聚一堂，观赏明月，品尝美味的月饼。
　　风俗在节日中扮演重要角色，但有时也随时间而变化。随着现代社会的发展和新思想的传播，有些传统会渐渐消失，而另一些传统则得以建立。中国春节燃放鞭炮以驱鬼神、贺新年这一典型风俗就是一个例子。如今，为了避免空气污染，许多大城市已经摒弃了这一风俗。另一个例子是万圣节，虽然起源于宗教，但万圣节渐渐成了孩子们纵情玩乐的一个节日。
　　节日正变得越来越商业化，商家会利用这些庆祝活动（进行促销）。购物网站和社交媒体应用程序极大地方便了人们为至亲至爱花更多钱购买礼物。尽管有人认为节日不应该被商业化，但是也有人认为消费增长有利于（提高）经济和公众幸福感。
　　节日是社会的一个重要组成部分。节日反映了人们的愿望、信仰、信念以及对生活的态度。节日是让我们放松心情、享受生活、暂时忘却工作的时刻。节日让我们了解我们来自何方、我们是谁、我们应该感恩什么。此外，如果你仔细研究各种节日，你会惊奇地发现不同的文化实际上有很多相同之处。

WHY DO WE CELEBRATE FESTIVALS？
　　Festivals are celebrated all around the world.They have a wide range
① of origins②， such as the seasons of the year， religions③， famous
figures④， and important events.Every festival has its different customs
and unique charms⑤.However，[1] no matter how different they may
seem， all over the world， the spirit of sharing joy⑥， gratitude⑦，
love， or peace is common in all festivals.
　　Of all the traditional festivals， the harvest⑧ festival can be found in
almost every culture.[2]This important agricultural⑨ festival takes place
after all the crops⑩ have been gathered in.
People celebrate to show that they are grateful for the year’s supply of
food.In ancient Egypt， the harvest festival was celebrated during the
springtime — the Egyptian harvest season.It featured a parade and a
great feast with music， dancing， and sports.Today， in some European
countries， people decorate churches and town halls with flowers and
fruit， and get together to celebrate over a meal.During the Mid-Autumn
Festival in China， families gather to admire the shining moon and enjoy
delicious mooncakes.
　　[1]“no matter＋特殊疑问词”引导让步状语从句，意为“无
论……”。
　　[2]句中的after引导时间状语从句，意为“在……之后”。

church n.（基督教的）教堂；礼拜堂
　　Customs play a significant role in festivals， but sometimes they
can change over time.With the development of modern society and the
spread of new ideas， some traditions may fade away and others may be
established.One example is the typical Chinese Spring Festival custom
of lighting firecrackers to drive away the evil spirits and celebrate the
new year.Nowadays， many big cities have given up this custom in order
to avoid air pollution.[3]Another example is Halloween， which slowly
became an exciting festival for children， in spite of its religious origins.
　　[4]Festivals are becoming more and more commercial ， with
businesses taking advantage of the celebrations.Online shopping websites
and social media apps have made it much easier for the public to spend
more on gifts for their loved ones.Although some believe festivals should
not be commercialised ， others believe the increase in spending is good
for the economy and public happiness.
　　Festivals are an important part of society.They reflect people’s
wishes， beliefs ， faiths ， and attitudes towards life.They are
occasions that allow us to relax and enjoy life， and forget about our
work for a little while.They help us understand where we came from，
who we are， and what to appreciate.And if you study festivals
carefully， you may be surprised to find that different cultures actually
have a lot in common after all.
　　[3]句中which引导非限制性定语从句。
　　[4]句中使用了with复合结构，即“with＋宾语＋宾语补足
语”；动词-ing短语taking advantage of the celebrations作宾语补足
语，用于补充说明宾语businesses的情况。

【参考译文】
我们为什么庆祝节日？
　　世界各地都庆祝各种节日。节日的由来五花八门，比如时节、宗
教、著名人物及重大事件。每个节日都有它不同的风俗和独特的魅
力。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。
　　在所有的传统节日中，丰收节几乎可见于每一种文化之中。这一
重大的农业节日在庄稼全部收割后举行。人们举行庆祝活动，对这一
年收获的食物表达感恩。在古埃及，人们于春季（即埃及的丰收季）
庆祝丰收节。庆祝活动主要是游行和丰盛的筵席，载歌载舞，并伴有
体育活动。如今，在一些欧洲国家，人们用鲜花和水果装饰教堂和市
政厅，聚在一起共享大餐，以示庆祝。在中国的中秋节，家家户户欢
聚一堂，观赏明月，品尝美味的月饼。
　　风俗在节日中扮演重要角色，但有时也随时间而变化。随着现代
社会的发展和新思想的传播，有些传统会渐渐消失，而另一些传统则
得以建立。中国春节燃放鞭炮以驱鬼神、贺新年这一典型风俗就是一
个例子。如今，为了避免空气污染，许多大城市已经摒弃了这一风
俗。另一个例子是万圣节，虽然起源于宗教，但万圣节渐渐成了孩子
们纵情玩乐的一个节日。
　　节日正变得越来越商业化，商家会利用这些庆祝活动（进行促
销）。购物网站和社交媒体应用程序极大地方便了人们为至亲至爱花
更多钱购买礼物。尽管有人认为节日不应该被商业化，但是也有人认
为消费增长有利于（提高）经济和公众幸福感。
　　节日是社会的一个重要组成部分。节日反映了人们的愿望、信
仰、信念以及对生活的态度。节日是让我们放松心情、享受生活、暂
时忘却工作的时刻。节日让我们了解我们来自何方、我们是谁、我们
应该感恩什么。此外，如果你仔细研究各种节日，你会惊奇地发现不
同的文化实际上有很多相同之处。

　　（2024·长沙高一下质检）Sylvester Stallone had been a struggling
actor before he achieved his great success as an actor and screenwriter，
starting in 1976 with his role as boxer Rocky Balboa， in the first film of
the successful Rocky series.
　　Stallone was so poor at one point that he sold his wife’s
jewellery.He ended up becoming homeless， sleeping in a bus station，
and struggled to afford food.He even managed to get a small amount of
money in his pocket by selling his dog for $25.
　　Soon after， Stallone decided to take his career into his own hands
and write a movie role for himself.After watching a boxing match，
Stallone wrote the script （脚本） for Rocky very quickly， and soon a
studio wanted to buy the screenplay to make.
　　Stallone was offered $125，000 for the Rocky script， but the trouble
for the studio was that Stallone wanted to star in the movie.Stallone was
penniless， but he still turned down $125，000 in order to chase his
dream.
　　After being refused on the idea that he “looked and talked
funny”， Stallone was then offered $250，000 for the screenplay.He
refused unless he could star.He was then offered $350，000.Again he
refused.
　　The studio wanted this screenplay so badly， but was not willing to
risk the money on this unknown actor.Stallone stayed strong， and
eventually the studio gave him a small amount for the script and let him
star.
　　With his fortunes up， Stallone went to buy back his dog， but the
guy he sold it to would not sell him back.Stallone offered the man $1，
000 for the dog， but the man refused.Eventually， the man accepted
$15，000 for the dog.
　　And this is why Stallone has deserved his success and why he is on
this list of the best inspiring stories — because he was willing to do
whatever it takes to realise his dreams.
