MY AMAZING NAADAM EXPERIENCE
  I experienced the Naadam Festival in China’s Inner Mongolia
Autonomous Region for the first time this year.The festival falls on the
fourth day of the sixth month of the lunar calendar, usually lasting for
three days.Naadam means “games” in Mongolian, and it is
represented by three events: horse racing, wrestling, and archery,
which are all so exciting to watch!
  On the first day, I set off to the games early with my friend Burin.I
saw a lot of people wearing fancy Mongolian robes.Some were feeding
their horses, some were practising archery, and others were chatting or
taking photographs.Burin told me that Mongolians travel every year from
near and far to attend the festival, just as their ancestors had done for
centuries.
  After the opening ceremony and some amazing performances, the
wrestling competition began.Mongolian wrestling is different from the
wrestling in the Olympic Games.There are no rounds, and wrestlers are
not separated by weight.The wrestler loses if any part of his body above
his knee touches the ground.After singing some songs, the competitors
danced onto the green field, waving their arms in the air as if they were
eagles.I was quite moved by their show of strength and grace.
  I absolutely enjoyed the archery, too, but the horse races were my
favourite part.However, I was surprised to see that the riders were boys
and girls! I heard it is because children are lighter and the horses can run
faster and farther.At first, I was a little worried about the children’s
safety, but Burin said, “Don’t worry.They’ve been riding horses
all their lives.They’ll be just fine.” That was the moment I started to
understand why people say “Horses are at the heart of Mongolian
culture”....
I’m finally back home now, feeling really tired, but celebrating
Naadam with my friend was totally worth it.He invited me back for the
winter to stay in a traditional Mongolian tent and eat hot pot.I can’t
wait!
Step 2 析写作手法
学语言:
1. 修饰语:
文章第三段倒数第二句使用了比喻的修辞手法,用来描述摔跤选手
的激情。
2. 连接词:
(1)在第二至四段中,作者分别描写了“那达慕”大会的节日习
俗与开幕仪式、蒙古式摔跤以及赛马活动等,运用了时间顺
序的描写方法,使用On the first day ...、 After the opening
ceremony ...、 After singing some songs ...等使层次清晰,
逻辑鲜明,语意连贯。
(2)文章最后一段恰当地使用副词finally、 really、 totally描述了
作者的节日感受,并表达了作者对故地重游的期待。
3. 高级表达:
set off、 amazing、 absolutely、 can’t wait 等表达的运用彰显了作
者高人一筹的文字驾驭能力。
4. 高级句式:
(1)文章第二段第三句运用了排比句some ...some ...and
others ..., 不仅使表达具有韵律感,还能增强气势。
(2)文章第四段第二句巧妙运用了感叹句,表达了作者强烈的惊
讶之情。
学结构:
【参考译文】
我的“那达慕”大会奇妙经历
  今年,我第一次体验了中国内蒙古自治区的“那达慕”大会。这
一节日于每年农历六月初四开始,通常持续三天。“那达慕”在蒙语
中意为“游戏”,主要表现为三大赛事:赛马、摔跤和射箭,每项运
动都动人心魄!
  (“那达慕”大会的)第一天,我和好友布林早早出发来到了会
场。我看到许多人身着华丽的蒙古袍。有的在喂马,有的在练习射
箭,其他人则在聊天或拍照。布林告诉我说,与他们数百年前的祖先
一样,蒙古人每年都会从四面八方赶来参加这一节日。
  开幕式和几项精彩的表演之后,摔跤比赛开始了。蒙古式摔跤与
奥运会的摔跤比赛有所不同:它不分局,摔跤手也不分体重级别。摔
跤手膝盖以上的任何部位先着地者为负。几首歌唱毕,选手们开始在
草地上翩翩起舞,他们挥动着双臂,宛如雄鹰。这刚与柔的展示深深
地打动了我。
  射箭同样令我叹为观止,但赛马才是我最喜爱的部分。然而,看
到赛马选手们都是男孩和女孩,我十分惊讶!听说这是因为儿童体重
更轻,马儿才能跑得更快、更远。刚开始的时候,我有点担心这些孩
子的安全,但布林却说:“别担心,他们是在马背上长大的,不会有
事的。”我顿时明白了为什么人们说“马是蒙古文化的核心”了。……
  我现在已经回到家了,感到十分疲倦,但能和我的朋友一起庆祝
那达慕,再累也是值得的。他邀请我冬天时再去住传统的蒙古包,吃
火锅。我已经迫不及待了!

National Bird Day
National Bird Day is a holiday which has been celebrated on 5 January.The purpose of this holiday is to bring attention to the situation of our feathered friends, particularly birds that are not native to the United
States.This holiday is also a good day to appreciate the beauty and the diversity of these animals.
  However, National Bird Day shouldn’t be confused with Bird
Day — one of the oldest bird holidays.Bird Day is a holiday that is
celebrated annually in the United States on 4 May and has been since the
late 19th century.
  History
  National Bird Day is a holiday which has been celebrated for over a
decade now.Bird Day, on the other hand, goes back a lot
further.According to the US Library of Congress, Bird Day was
established by Charles Babcock in 1894.
  Facts About Birds
  According to the International Union for Conservation of Nature,
there are almost 10,000 different species of birds.Out of these species,
almost 900 of them are on the verge (边缘) of extinction and 4 have
been ruled as extinct in the wild.
  Customs, Traditions and Celebrations
  National Bird Day can be celebrated in any number of different
ways.Participants can watch birds — either alone or in a group, and they
can take part in one of the activities that exist for the protection of birds.In
schools across the US, children are often given the task of researching
about birds on this day or drawing a nice picture of birds for the
classroom.
  When Is National Bird Day?

  (2024·聊城高一下期末)Sweetest Day in America is always the
third Saturday in October.This holiday is much more important in some
regions than in others (Detroit, Cleveland and Buffalo being the biggest
Sweetest Day cities).It is a holiday that is gaining in popularity every
year throughout the country.
  Sweetest Day is celebrated on the third Saturday in October as a day
to make someone happy.It is an occasion which offers all of us an
opportunity to remember not only the sick, aged, and orphaned, but
also friends, relatives and associates whose helpfulness and kindness we
have enjoyed.
  Over 60 years ago, a man in Cleveland, believing that the city’s
orphans and shut-ins (卧病在床的人) too often felt that they were
forgotten and neglected, thought of the idea of showing them that they
were remembered.He did this through the distribution of small gifts.With
the help of his friends and neighbours, he distributed these small
remembrances on a Saturday in October.During the years that followed,
other Clevelanders began to participate in the celebration ceremony,
which came to be called “Sweetest Day”.In time, the Sweetest Day
idea of spreading cheer to the poor was broadened to include everyone,
and became an occasion for remembering others with a kind act or a small
remembrance.And soon the idea spread to other cities all over the
country.
  Sweetest Day is not based on any single group’s religious affection
or on a family relationship.It is a reminder that a thoughtful word or deed
enriches life and gives it meaning.Because for many people remembering
others takes the form of giving gifts; Sweetest Day offers us the
opportunity to show others that we care about them in a practical way.

  (2024·云南三校高一下学期联考)I used to play football when I
was a little kid.Okay, let’s face it.I was never really a little kid.I was
so big that I got to play football a whole year ahead of my friends.Our
football league didn’t have an age limit, but it had a weight
requirement.If you were heavy enough, you got to play.I was heavy
enough at the age of eight.
  The only problem was, by the time I turned ten I was too heavy.You
had to weigh a certain amount to start playing, but if you weighed too
much they made you stop.Not playing would be just fine with me.I would
be happier sitting at home reading a book.
  Dad was one of the team’s big sponsors and friends of the coach,
so I figured I would let him down and that quitting wasn’t an option.I
waited, day after day, and week after week ...until I was eleven and
weighed more than two hundred pounds.I thought that would be the end of
it, once and for all.
  However, my coach came up with a bright idea to help me lose
weight.The very next practice he presented me with a T-shirt made out of a
black garbage bag.“Put it on,” he said, pointing out the holes for my
head and arms.“Start running around the practice field.” “Keep
going, Fireplug (消防栓),” other players would
shout.“Fireplug” was the new name they gave me.Although no one
ever explained it to me, I figured it had something to do with me being
shaped like it.
  Every day in practice, I had to run in that stupid garbage bag.My
short fat legs weren’t exactly comfortable, and often I’d trip and
fall.The other players would laugh.At that moment, I asked myself,
“Why?Was I being punished for something?Wasn’t the running,
sweating and pain enough?” I suddenly realised that I’d been knocking
myself out for something I didn’t even want to do in the first place!
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式作答。
  It was then that I decided I wouldn’t play football anymore.                       
  Much to my surprise, my dad was on my side.
参考范文:
  It was then that I decided I wouldn’t play football anymore.With my
heart pounding, I walked towards the coach with shaky legs.At that
time, it didn’t exactly seem brave.It just seemed right.“What’s
up?” the coach asked me in confusion.“I quit,” I said in a trembling
but determined voice.“What?You can’t quit.What would your dad
think?” He seemed disappointed and picked up the phone.Having
described the situation to my dad, he handed me the phone.
  Much to my surprise, my dad was on my side.On the phone, he
explained he had thought I wanted to be the next big football star from my
perseverance!But now he understood and told me it was time to make a
change, no matter what anyone else thought.Suddenly, a warm current
surged into my heart.I hung up the phone and headed home, thinking
about the thing which made me happy.It was from the experience that I
realised we should express our real thoughts bravely.(共89张PPT)

Some Strangest Festivals from Around the World
  Through the years, people have found many ways to celebrate
important occasions in their lives.If you’re looking for an interesting and
off-the-beaten-path travel destination, here are some most wonderful and
unusual festivals from around the world.
  Boryeong Annual Mud Festival, Boryeong, ROK
  This festival takes place at the beach, with much mud resource from
the sea.At this festival, people take part in a number of activities
involving mud, which not only brings back happy childhood memories
but is good for the skin.
  World Bodypainting Festival, P rtschach, Austria
  This entire festival is not strange because of the activities that occur
during it, but because of the way people look when it’s over.During
this time, artists worldwide flood in and hold live body-painting
activities.They are painting creative designs on willing participants.
  Underwater Music Festival, Florida, America
  Rather than being held at a typical concert hall, the Underwater
Music Festival takes place on the seabed.This unique custom is unlike any
others because it features musicians playing music below water level.100
feet deep in clear water, talented musicians wear diving equipment,
performing free concerts for sea creatures and humans alike.
  Battle of the Oranges, Ivrea, Italy
  This Italian town hosts one of the most unusual festivals.Each year in
February, a battle takes place among thousands of participants who have
to throw oranges at each other during a 30-minute fight.The aim is to try
and knock down other participants by attacking them with oranges so that
they cannot stand any longer.

  I had run out of printer ink just when I needed it, so I found myself
making the long drive to the only store around here that sells it.It was the
worst possible time to shop.The store was packed with people and the wait
at the checkout counter was long.I could see the stress and frustration on
the faces of the people around me.It was no better in the parking lot and I
found myself in the middle of a long line of cars waiting to pull out on the
highway.
  As my car was inching forward, I saw her.She was a young, thin
woman with black skin.She was holding up a cardboard sign that read:
“Homeless.Please Help!” I watched as car after car drove past her
while their drivers averted (移开) their eyes.
  As I came closer, my better angels whispered in my ear and I
quickly grabbed my wallet and pulled out the little cash I had left.I
stopped next to her, rolled down my window, and quickly put it in her
hand.She looked at me with a small, sad smile and whispered “Thank
You” before the car behind me forced me to drive on.I drove away saying
a prayer for her and hoping that I had helped her even a little.
  In this life we all want to make great changes and do great things,
but sometimes a small kindness is all God asks of us.Sometimes a small
kindness is all we can do.Sometimes a small kindness is enough.So fill
your days with small kindnesses.Fill your life with love.

C
  You might think it’s absurd (and maybe it is), but Oxford
English Dictionary (OED) editors recently revealed that “run” has
indeed become the single word with the most potential meanings in all of
English, boasting no fewer than 645 different usage cases for the verb
form alone.How could three little letters be responsible for so much
meaning?
  Context is everything.Think about it: When you run a fever, for
example, those three letters have a very different meaning than when you
run a bath to treat it.You’d do things differently if you ran the
world.Maybe you should run for office.
  It bears mentioning that “run” didn’t always have the run of the
dictionary.When the OED’s first edition came out in 1928 (after 70
years of editorial research), the longest entry belonged to another three-
letter juggernaut:“set.” Even today, the print edition of the OED
contains some 200 meanings, beginning with “put, lay, or stand
(something) in a specified place or position”, and continuing on for
about 32 pages.
  So what happened? Why is “run” suddenly the Swiss Army Knife
of verbs? British author Simon Winchester fancies it “a feature of our
more energetic and frantic times”, making words like “set” seem
almost boring and passive by comparison.“Run” appears to have earned
some major lift during the boom of the Industrial Revolution, when all
manner of mechanized innovation adopted it as their verb of
choice.“Machines run, clocks run, computers run—there are all of
those (meanings) which began in the middle of the 19th century,”
Winchester says.
  So, ready to run through the whole list of definitions? Alas, to
read all 645 meanings you’ll have to wait for the next edition of the
Oxford English Dictionary.The print run is expected in 2037.

哪个吗?文章对此进行了简要介绍。

哪个吗?文章对此进行了简要介绍。
28. What does the underlined word “boasting” in Paragraph 1 probably
mean?(  )
A. Expressing. B. Possessing.
C. Suggesting. D. Demanding.
解析: 词义猜测题。根据上下文可知,run是英语中意义最丰
富的单词。画线词后的645 different usage cases提示这里的boasting
是“拥有”之意。
29. What helped the word “run” to have more meanings?(  )
A. A change in lifestyles.
B. Cultural development.
C. Economic development.
D. A change in environment.
解析: 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段可知,工业革命的发展
为run一词赋予了更多含义。
30. What can we learn about the word “run” from the text?(  )
A. It can only be used as a verb.
B. It takes up about 32 pages in the OED.
C. It has the same meaning in different situations.
D. It wasn’t the word with most meanings in the past.
解析: 细节理解题。根据第三段可知,1928年第一版《牛津
英语词典》中含义最多的单词是set。
31. What can we infer about English words from the text?(  )
A. Their meanings don’t stay unchanged.
B. Short ones are usually more expressive.
C. Long ones tend to have more meanings.
D. “Set” will have more meanings than “run”.
解析: 推理判断题。综合全文可知,run最初并非英语中含
义最多的单词,而是随着时代的发展含义越来越多,最后成为
英语中意义最丰富的单词。由此判断,英语中单词的意义不会
保持不变。
D
  To understand how much we rely on ecosystem services, imagine a
world where humans are the only species — perhaps in a spaceship far
from the Earth.
  There are no plants releasing oxygen, so you have to engineer a way
to make it yourself. So straight away you need a chemical processing plant
on board your ship. That same plant will have to make water too.
  There is also nothing to eat, so you must artificially make food.You
could synthesise (人工合成) chemicals like sugars and fats, but
making it delicious would be extremely hard.As of 2015, we can’t
even make an artificial burger that everyone finds convincing.
  Let’s not even get started on the microorganisms (微生物) living
in your gut, many of which are beneficial. The point is that, while we
could in theory do all these things artificially, it is far easier to let the
existing wildlife do them for us.
  The scale of these ecosystem services, when you add them up,
turns out to be extraordinarily large.
  In 1997, ecologist Robert Costanza and his colleagues estimated that
the ecosystem provides services worth around $33 trillion a year.For
comparison, they noted that the entire global economy at the time
produced around $18 trillion a year.
  Five years later, the team took the argument a step further by asking
how much we would gain by conserving biodiversity.They concluded that
the benefits would outweigh the costs by a factor of 100.In other words,
conserving nature is an unbelievably good investment.
  By contrast, letting species decline and go extinct looks like a bad
move.A 2010 study concluded that unchecked species loss would wipe
18% off global economic output by 2050.
  You may perhaps be feeling that all this talk of economics and growth
is strange.It’s all rather cold and heartless, without any of the love for
the natural world that we were talking about earlier.Well, many
environmentalists feel the same way.

项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
How to Start the New Year Right
  We’re about to start a new year, so why not start it off right by
developing a few new healthy habits? Check out the ideas below and try
the ones that sound right for you.
  36. (  ) Just as a healthy diet is necessary and important for
good health, so is sleep.Cutting back on snooze-time can lead to an out-
of-control appetite, a greater risk for some diseases.So try to get the
recommended eight hours of sleep needed for good health and perfect
performance.
  Eat mindfully.One of the most significant differences between
people who successfully manage their weight and people who constantly
struggle is mindful eating.Turn off the TV or computer, sit down at a
table with your food on a plate, and focus on eating.37.(  ) Put
your fork down between bites, and take time to really enjoy your meal.
  Volunteer.In addition to helping others, volunteers themselves
often benefit from “giving back” to the communities in which they live
and work.38.(  ) As a volunteer, you gain valuable experience,
learn new skills, make friends and meet others who share the same
interests.
  39. (  ) Research has shown that people who have family and
friends they can turn to for support and companionship may be healthier
and less likely to experience depression than those who spend most of their
time alone.
  Take a time out.40.(  ) Inhale (吸气) through your nose,
and exhale (呼气) through your mouth.Deep, focused breathing
slows your heart rate, calms the body and, as a result, calms your
mind and reduces stress.
A. Follow a healthy diet.
B. Get your full eight hours of sleep.
C. Enjoy the smell and enjoy the taste.
D. Try to finish your work by yourself.
E. Maintain strong family and social networks.
F. At least once a day, close your eyes and focus on taking 10 deep
breaths.
G. They also enjoy a rewarding sense of doing something good for
someone else.

  We’ve all heard the saying “Laughter is the best medicine”.And
there might be something in this idiom: numerous studies have shown
that people who describe themselves 56.    happy tend to have fewer
health problems, a 57.    (low) risk of depression, and longer
lives.
  For instance, a 2017 study at the University of Nottingham tested
the effect of mood on 138 pensioners receiving the normal flu jab.Those

flu-fighting antibodies.Earlier work at Yale University and the University

activation of genes that fight disease.
  But does happiness cause good health, 60.    is it the other way

  There is a possible evolutionary 62.    (explain) here.Humans
evolved as social creatures that cooperate in groups 63.    (obtain)
food and protect themselves from wild animals.We were happier with a

chances.
  It turns out that most people can increase their happiness.Research
suggests that, on average, 50% of people’s general level of happiness

control, and the remaining 10% depends on the circumstances.

比较级形式。
58. who/that 本空前面的Those为先行词,这里用关系代词who或that

语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。我们常说“笑是良药”,快乐真的

kitchen.Then I joined their effort, which included making the fillings,
rolling jiaozi wrappers, and making jiaozi.Having finished all the
processes, we began to enjoy our fruit of labour.The jiaozi we made
turned out to be extremely delicious and we all ate to our heart’s content.

第二节(满分25分)
  阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构
成一篇完整的短文。
  Middle school was a difficult time for me.I felt ugly and kids teased
me every day, which only made me upset.
  The friends I’d had for many years claimed I’d changed and
wouldn’t hang out with me anymore.Then a funny thing happened.One
of the “cool” kids started inviting me to hang out.Her name was Dina,
and she invited me to parties and over to her house.Dina may have seen
that I needed a friend.Or maybe she just thought I was nice.Either way,
when kids teased me about being ugly, she told me they were crazy.
  Middle school graduation was approaching and I couldn’t wait.I
knew there was a chance that high school might be as horrible as middle
school, but maybe it would get me away from all the bad memories of
middle school.
  Unexpectedly, the day we were taking graduation pictures turned
out to be a life-changing moment for me.I came to school like I always
did, and I was definitely not wearing make-up, although many of the
girls were.Make-up was forbidden at my house until I reached high
school, and I didn’t think much of it — that was who I was.That was
who I thought I would always be.
  I was getting ready for the photographer when Dina grabbed me.She
laughed and said,“Not like that, you’re not!” dragging me into
the girl’s bathroom.Dina and her friends pulled out some supplies and
started giving me a makeover (装扮).They changed my hair, put
make-up on me, and took away my oversized glasses.
  I couldn’t see how I looked, but they said I looked great and I was
just hoping it wasn’t all a big joke.I let them lead me to where I had to
stand for the pictures, hoping the photographer would tell me if I looked
like a clown or something.The flash went off and Dina gave me back my
glasses.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式作答。
  When I got home that day, my mother was pretty upset about the
make-up.                       
  A few weeks later, the pictures came back from the photographer.                       
参考范文:
  When I got home that day, my mother was pretty upset about the
make-up.She yelled at me for a while and told me that I didn’t look like
myself.She was so angry that she said something unpleasant.“Have you
forgotten that make-up is forbidden at our house? Remove it and wash
your face at once!” said my mother.However, I didn’t care about
what she said.I didn’t want to look like my old self.I didn’t want to be
my old self.
  A few weeks later, the pictures came back from the
photographer.They did look great, and I looked like a new, happier
person.I was surprised to see that I looked pretty and felt glad that I could
now look back on middle school with one really good memory.I will
always be grateful to Dina for what she did for me.She helped to bring me
out of my shell and discover a better version of myself.(共19张PPT)

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……”。

  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.

【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。

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
  (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.
语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Stallone的成功之。

1. What do we know about Stallone from Paragraph 2?(  )
A. He lived a very hard life.
B. He didn’t want to work hard.
C. He made a living by selling dogs.
D. He didn’t get on well with his wife.

的生活。
A. He wasn’t a responsible actor.
B. He asked too much for his script.
C. They had already found a famous star.
D. They thought he wasn’t the right person.
解析: 细节理解题。根据第五段中的After being refused on the

M:Hey, Sarah! This year I’m going to the rock festival for all three
days!
W:Oh, lucky you, Leo! Are you going with your cousin again?
M:Not this year.My brother has promised to take me there now.My
sister’s too busy with her college work.
W:How will you get there?
M:We wanted to drive, but Dad said no.And it’s too far from the city
for us to cycle there, but there are special buses so we’ll take those.
W:What do you have to take with you?
M:Just a tent and clothes, really.We’ll need lots of water, but
we’ll buy that and all our meals there.Hey! Come with us!
W:Maybe I will!
(Text 2)
M:Hey, Jenny, the Summer Festival is happening in the park.Don’t
you know about it?
W:No.Is it a music festival?
M:Well, in fact, it’s a festival of food and art.
W:Oh, that sounds interesting.When does it begin?
M:On Friday.Last year it finished on Saturday, but this year the
festival will run for three days, not two.
W:Great! I’d like to go.Is it open all day?
M:The gates open at eleven in the morning, and they stay open until
midnight.
W:I don’t think I’ll stay that long.But I might go in the afternoon at
about three o’clock and stay there until seven o’clock.
M:Well, please don’t come by car.The city center will be very
busy.Take the bus.The No.15 goes to the park every 15 minutes.
W:Thanks a lot for reminding.
(Text 3)
W:The festival is great, isn’t it?
M:Yes.I have never seen such a good art festival before.
W:But I have a question — why is the festival only held in winter rather
than in other seasons? I prefer it is held in summer.
M:Summer? It’s not a good idea.
W:Why not?
M:As there are many travelers in summer, if there is an art festival,
the town will be crowded.But in winter, there aren’t enough
travelers.For the town’s development, the government organises the
festival.
W:It sounds more reasonable.
(Text 4)
W:Attention, please! Now I will give you a brief introduction to the
Winter Festival.It is a free event for all people to enjoy, and is organised
by a team of volunteers.The first Winter Festival was introduced the year
before last.Sadly due to a lack of money, no festival was held last
year.This year the government may provide 15,000 to the festival.They
also persuaded the businessmen around the town to offer the rest 5,000.
There will be a free art exhibition on Friday 18, Saturday 19 and Sunday
20 December in the Center Park of the town.The opening hours are from
10:00 a.m.to 4:00 p.m., and there is an opening night only on
Friday, from 7:30 p.m.to 10:00 p.m.Different from other
exhibitions, this art exhibition is really a special one because the public
will have the chance to watch the paintings which are from the town’s
school.And all the paintings are created by the students.
It is great that the Festival is going to host a wonderful sound of music in
the Main Exhibition Hall this year.This program aims to show some of the
musical talents that we have in town.Everyone watching the performance
had better not wear formal clothes, but fancy dress.And in the
program, you will hear classical music, pop music, rock music and
operas.

  (2024·南京高一下质检)Dongfang Shuo was a famous minister
(大臣) in the Han Dynasty.
One day, Dongfang entered the Imperial Garden and found a maid with tears streaming down her face and intending to jump into the well.He hurried up to stop her and asked what happened.It turned out that the maid, named Yuanxiao, hadn’t been able to see her parents since she entered the royal palace.
  After hearing about her experience, Dongfang assured her that he
would figure out a way for her to meet her family.He set up a fortune-
telling service outside the palace where he began telling people who came
to him that there would be a disastrous fire on the 15th day of the first
lunar month.
  News spread quickly.People in Chang’an city were in a panic and
asked for a solution.Dongfang told them that on the 13th day of the first
lunar month, the God of Fire would send a fairy in a red dress and people
should ask her for mercy.Dongfang also suggested letting every house in
the city put up red lanterns and set off firecrackers to pretend that the city
was on fire.
  The emperor was worried and asked Dongfang for advice.Dongfang
said,“I heard that the God of Fire loves glutinous rice balls.Don’t you
have a maid called Yuanxiao who is good at it?Let her make glutinous
rice balls to worship the God of Fire, and on the same day, the whole
city can make the glutinous rice balls to pay respect.”
  On the 15th day of the first lunar month, Chang’an city was
crowded with people holding lanterns, and Yuanxiao’s parents were
able to meet up with her in the crowds.
  The emperor was overjoyed and ordered that on the 15th day of the
first lunar month every year, people should make glutinous rice balls and
hang up lanterns to worship the God of Fire.Because Yuanxiao was so
good at it, people started to name the food after her, and from then on
the day has been called the Lantern Festival or Yuan Xiao Jie.

  (2024·重庆高一下月考)The 15th day of the eighth lunar month is
the Mid-Autumn Festival.The festival celebrations date back more than
2,000 years.The word Mid-Autumn first appeared in the famous ancient
book Zhou Li.It became an established festival during the Song Dynasty,
and has become as popular as the Spring Festival since the Ming and Qing
dynasties.
  It takes its name from the fact that it is always celebrated in the
middle of the autumn season.The day is also known as the Moon
Festival, as at that time of the year the moon is at its roundest and
brightest.
  This yearning for the moon among Chinese people can be traced back
to a fairytale:“Chang’e Flies to the Moon.” What is the story
about?
  Chang’e is the Chinese goddess of the moon.According to the
Chinese mythology, Chang’e’s husband Hou Yi, a brave archer
(弓箭手), was able to shoot down nine suns and saved the planet.As
a reward he was given an elixir of immortality (长生不老药), but
Hou Yi asked Chang’e to put it away.
  After the archer’s epic deeds, he gained instant fame and a large
number of people flocked to his home to learn his archery
skills.However, an immoral man named Peng Meng was among the
people, but only wanted the elixir.
  One day when Hou Yi was out, the cunning Peng sneaked into the
couple’s room to steal the elixir but Chang’e caught him.Peng tried to
force Chang’e to hand over the elixir but she swallowed it and started to
floated up to the sky, all the way to the moon.Legend has it that she
chose to stay on the moon, the closest planet to the Earth, so that she
could stay nearer to her husband.
  Hou Yi was heartbroken by her departure.He immediately set up a
table in his garden and laid out Chang’e’s favourite foods to pay tribute
(悼念) to her.From then on, people began to worship the moon.

  (2024·南昌高一下期末)Every year in November, people look
for bargains on Black Friday.But do you know that the same day is also
Buy Nothing Day?
  Black Friday is the day after the American holiday of Thanksgiving,
which is celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November.9.(  )
Over the last 20 years, big retailers have started to offer discounts and
bargains on this day, and it has become more and more popular.Last
year, people in the USA spent an estimated $54.7 billion between Black
Friday and Cyber Monday (the Monday after Thanksgiving, when
people often buy more online).10.(  ) For example, in 2017,
people in the UK spent the equivalent of $10.3 billion, in Germany $7.6
billion and in France $6.2 billion.
  Many of us love to get a bargain, but some feel that events like
Black Friday encourage people to buy things that they don’t really need
and can’t afford.11.(  ) It is easy to find video online of
customers physically fighting each other over bargains.
  12. (  ) Since 1997, Buy Nothing Day has been held on the
same day as Black Friday.The rules are simple.Just don’t buy anything
at all for 24 hours.13.(  ) The aim is to make people think more
about their spending and to make better decisions about what they buy and
where they buy it from.
A. It’s wise to buy nothing on this day.
B. Each country has its own shopping festival.
C. Many people are surprised how difficult this actually is.
D. The idea of Black Friday has also spread around the world.
E. Many people seem to completely lose control of their spending.
F. Instead of buying as much as possible on Black Friday, you could do
the opposite.
G. It has long been a popular day for consumers to start shopping for
Christmas in America.

  (2024·浙江四校高一下联考)I don’t remember exactly what
grade I was in when it happened.All I remember is that suddenly maths
was no longer fun.Since the first grade I had always loved maths.I got 100
percent on almost every paper I did.All at once, we were doing
something called multiplication (乘法) and I was no good at it.I
struggled on my first few worksheets until the teacher gave us each a
card.On it were written the multiplication tables.I stared at them and
smiled.Here were all the answers I needed.I read them over and over until
they became stuck in my head.On our next test I did great again.
  I also began to notice how multiplication flowed through God’s
creation.I saw how a tiny handful of seeds could produce a garden full of
food.I saw how having two rabbits could soon give you twenty.I saw how
tossing a little stone into a pond could produce ripples that seemed to go on
forever.I also saw how a few caring words could heal a hurting heart.And
I saw how a single act of loving-kindness could travel from person to
person, heart to heart, and soul to soul until it circled the world.
  The truth is that we are all multipliers (乘数) in this life.The only
question is: what are we going to multiply?Are we going to multiply the
fear, anger, and distrust that exist in this world?Or are we going to
multiply the love, kindness, and forgiveness?I choose the latter and I
hope you will do the same.
  Be a multiplier then.Help God make this world a better place.Spend
your days sowing smiles.Spend your days planting kindness.Spend your
days sharing love.You will be amazed at how much and how rapidly it
multiplies.You will be amazed at the harvest you will reap.

Commonly Told there is the well-known story “Kong Rong Takes the
Smallest Pear”.
  Kong Rong was a descendant (后裔) of Confucius.9.
(  ).Together with six other literary figures, he was honoured as
one of the “Seven Masters of Jian’an”.
  In his early years Kong Rong showed himself to be a hard-working
person of talent.Once, when Kong Rong was four years old, he and his
five brothers were eating pears.10.(  ).His brothers noticed this,
and thought it very strange.They asked him why he had chosen the
smallest pear.Kong Rong replied,“I am the youngest brother;
therefore, I should eat the smallest pear.”
  When others heard it, they were very surprised that such a young
child understood the ethics of yielding (让步) to others.His whole
family realised that he was an exceptional person.11.(  ), and
later it was spread by word of mouth; it was even included in The Three
Character Classic, in the words “Kong at Four Chose the Smallest
Pear”.
  12. (  ).It is this heritage of countless numbers of children of
China that has earned for China the fine name of “country of
etiquette”.It is hoped that children today will cultivate fine manners so as
to grow up to be well-mannered young people.
  Etiquette is one of the Chinese people’s fine traditional virtues.13.
(  ).From their earliest years the children of China learn to
understand and preserve etiquette, and it is by earnestly practicing it that
the people have displayed a splendid moral character, promoting Chinese
civilization through the ages.
