Looking for something entertaining to do? Check out some awesome festivals around the world.
Koninginnedag — The Netherlands
Koninginnedag or Queen’s Day is a national holiday in the Kingdom of the Netherlands. Although the birthday of the current Queen, Beatrix, is actually during the winter, she has celebrated it on April 30th, the country’s official “Queen’s Day” since 1949. Orange is the national color, and the streets become a sea of feather boas(围巾) and body paint as crowds gather in the plazas and on boats in the rivers. Amsterdam is the center of this outdoor party, with many live music events, but nearly every town is alive with orange on this day.
Thai Elephant Day — Thailand
Thai Elephant Day is a national holiday in Thailand. Thai Elephant Day has been celebrated on March 13th of every year since 1998. Because the elephant is the national animal of Thailand, they are highly respected and treasured. During the festivals elephants are honored during a ceremony in which they are fed bananas, other fruit, and sugarcane.
The Fire Festival — Shetland
On the last Tuesday in January the entire town of Lerwick, Shetland goes up in flames. At the festival, you’ll find yourself sitting, dancing, or stumbling around the largest bonfire you’ve ever seen in your life. The festival lasts only one day but takes the entire year to plan. Be prepared for an evening of singing, dancing, and fast-paced activity, and don’t worry about making it to work the next day — it’s a national holiday!
Holi — India
Holi, he Festival of Colors, is a Hindu celebration full of joy and one of India’s most important holidays. On the day of the last full moon of the lunar month, usually late February or early March, the air is full of bright colored powder. The festival is celebrated differently throughout the country, with bonfires and music, but the cheerful spirit is common throughout Hindu communities around the world.

With the recent relaxation in travel, I found myself visiting Innsbruck, the capital city of the state of Tyrol in Western Austria.
This amazing destination is surrounded within snow capped mountains and is perfect for a short break. You can even enjoy a breathtaking sight at Innsbruck airport as the plane gently moves between the mountains on its journey to the runway.
The city is a combination of modern and historic buildings, serving both as a thriving university town and a popular tourist centre.Walking through cobbled streets and specially designed buildings, I could not help but be impressed by this awe-inspiring city. I learned from my guide-book that Innsbruck was the imperial capital 500 years ago when the Holy Roman Emperor Maximilian I settled here, and it still lives up to its royal connections today with its lavish and amazing buildings. I walked round this city which was easy to explore on foot, amazed at the dramatic backdrop of the Nordkette mountain range which offers skiing, hiking via the Nordkettenbahnen cable railway which is just a 20-minute ride from the centre of Innsbruck. The Goldenes Dachl (“Golden Roof”), an important landmark in Innsbruck shining in the sunlight, can be viewed from the street, and took my breath away.
Of course, no visit to Innsbruck is complete without sampling traditional Austrian food including my personal favourite—apple strudel with vanilla cream. Roadside cafes are plentiful in the city and there is nothing more relaxing than sitting in the sunshine, drinking coffee and watching the world go by. Innsbruck stole my heart with its amazing buildings, great mountains and friendly people. I cannot wait to return to sample more of this delightful European city.
4. How is the text developed?
A. By telling some fact files. B. By providing the latest news.
C. By comparing now and past. D. By following the order of time.
5. What did the author do in the city?
A. He went skiing. B. He the viewed Golden Roof.
C. He climbed the mountain. D. He took a 20-minute ride.
6. What is the author's attitude towards Innsbruck?
A. Critical B. Favorable C. Indifferent D. Doubtful
7. What’s a suitable title for the text?
A. Innsbruck-My Great Hometown B. Guidelines on Traveling in Innsbruck
C. A Combination of Present and History D. My Great Escape─Inspiring Innsbruck
C
Among world languages, English places perhaps the highest value on the expressions of thanks, especially in formal and business settings. So it’s logical that English speakers tend to conflate the expression of thankfulness with the feeling of thankfulness. If somebody didn’t say “thanks,” we often think, they must not have been very grateful. And yet, in English, “thank you” gets used so frequently that it can easily start to feel habitual.
But do we say it as much as we think in our casual interactions with family and friends? A new research paper titled Universals and Cultural Diversity in the Expression of Thankfulness suggests that no, we do not.
The research team behind the paper looked for expressions of thankfulness in daily informal interactions across eight languages: English, Italian, Polish, Russian, Lao, Cha’palaa, Murrinhpatha, and Siwu. The findings suggest the universal way in which thankfulness is expressed is not through giving thanks, but rather through participation in a social agreement in which mutual (相互的) assistance and working together are the norm. In fact, the practice of giving thanks seems to have little impact on the practice of mutual exchange.
The practice of giving thanks also varies culturally In India, for example, people — especially when they are your elders, relatives, or close friends — tend to feel that by thanking them, you’re weakening your closeness with them and creating formality and distance that shouldn’t exist! In contrast, in England, expressing thankfulness through words is seen as a positive strengthening of relationships, promoting goodwill and connection.
Nick Enfield, lead researcher of the study, suggests that most of the 6,000 to 7,000 world languages don’t have a word for “thank you.” “When we consider the negative effects of thanking close relations alongside the fact that many languages are spoken in very small communities where speakers are likely to know each other, that claim starts to feel quite reasonable.”
8. What does the underlined word “conflate” in paragraph 1 mean?
A. Compare. B. Replace. C. Figure out. D. Mix up.
9. How do people express thankfulness universally according to the study?
A. By saying thanks directly.
B. By making social agreements.
C. By using body language.
D. By helping and cooperating.
10. How do Indians view the practice of giving thanks to relatives?
A. It weakens their bond. B. It reduces their social distance.
C. It enhances their connection. D. It promotes their mutual trust.
11. What does Nick Enfield imply in the last paragraph?
A. Many cultures do not emphasize thankfulness.
B. Thankfulness might not be expressed in words.
C. Small communities prefer to thank close friends.
D. The negative effects of thanking should be avoided.
D
In the digital age, the rapid development of AI, VR and AR technologies has greatly changed the way people read and appreciate literary works, making the traditional literary reading more interactive and interesting. More and more readers, especially teenagers, begin to accept and love the new digital reading methods, which have become a new trend in literary spread.
One of the most popular digital reading methods is immersive reading. With the help of VR and AR devices, readers can “step into” the vivid scenes described in novels, poems and plays directly. For example, when reading Qu Yuan’s Li Sao, readers can see the beautiful scenery of the ancient Chu State and feel the poet’s strong emotions of patriotism. The 2026 Spring Festival Gala used this technology to present classic Chinese poems, which made the poems more vivid and easy to understand for the audience of all ages.
Another popular trend is AI-assisted reading. AI can automatically explain difficult words, phrases and historical background knowledge in classic literary works, which helps students and new readers understand the works better and faster. Some reading apps even turn classic literary works into short animated plays or gentle songs, combining literature with music and painting. This creative form makes traditional literature more lively and attractive to young people.
However, some people worry that digital reading may make people lose the habit of reading paper books, and the sense of touch and immersion brought by paper books can never be replaced by digital devices. Experts point out that the key is to balance digital reading and traditional reading. Technology is just a tool to help people fall in love with literature, and the true beauty and value of literary works themselves will never change with the form of reading.
12. What can we learn about the use of VR and AR in literary reading from the text?
A. It transforms classic poems into animated plays or songs.
B. It enables readers to visually experience the settings of literary works.
C. It was first introduced to the public through the 2026 Spring Festival Gala.
D. It is more popular among the elderly than among younger generations.
13. Why does the author mention the 2026 Spring Festival Gala in paragraph 2?
A. To criticize the overuse of technology in traditional culture shows.
B. To illustrate the widespread commercial application of VR devices.
C. To provide a concrete example of how immersive reading works in practice.
D. To compare the differences between TV shows and digital reading apps.
14. How does AI-assisted reading help readers according to the text?
A. By writing new literary works for readers automatically.
B. By providing explanations for difficult elements in classic works.
C. By reducing the time needed for reading any books significantly.
D. By discouraging the use of paper books among young students.
15. What can be inferred about the experts’ view on digital and traditional reading?
A. They believe digital reading will soon make paper books disappear.
B. They consider the sense of touch from paper books to be unimportant.
C. They think the true value of literature lies in the reading form.
D. They see technology as a helpful tool rather than a replacement.
