【題目】

As an old Chinese saying goes, Spring Festival comes right after the Laba Festival, so get ready for a bowl of porridge while looking forward to the long-awaited family get-together.

Today, people across China are celebrating the Laba Festival. It is a traditional Chinese festival. It’s on the eighth day of the 12th lunar month. What does this festival mean to Chinese people? OK, It just tells people to prepare for celebrating the coming New Year’s Day and for wanderers to return home to get together with their family.

Long long ago, Laba Festival was a day of thanks for a good harvest. On this day, people usually eat Laba porridge, a porridge with eight kinds of mixed grains（谷物）. Many temples today have the tradition of giving out Laba porridge to the public. The sweet, red porridge is believed to bring luck and joy.

The festival is also the day for people to put garlic in vinegar（醋）. The garlic turns green, and this Laba garlic will be eaten with dumplings on Chinese New Year’s Day. While in the past, It was used to let people remember to pay back the money they had borrowed, as Laba is near the end of the year and ‘garlic’ (suàn, 蒜 in Chinese) sounds the same as ‘calculate’(suàn, 算).

Customs are quite different across the country. People in Qianxian, east China’s Anhui Province, will eat the Laba tofu a few days before. In Xining City, northwest China’s Qinghai Province, people will eat porridge with beef and mutton.

【解析】

中國有句俗語：臘八過后就是年，臘八就是中國農(nóng)歷的十二月初八，這句話告訴人們從這一天起就要開始準(zhǔn)備過年了。這篇短文中給我們講述了臘八的一些習(xí)俗。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文第二段中Today, people across China are celebrating the Laba Festival. It is a traditional Chinese festival. It’s on the eighth day of the 12th lunar month.可知，臘八節(jié)在中國農(nóng)歷的十二月初八，由此可知應(yīng)選D。

【2】詞義猜測題。根據(jù)劃線單詞所在的句子It just tells people to prepare for celebrating the coming New Year’s Day and for wanderers to return home to get together with their family.可知，臘八節(jié)是告訴人要開始準(zhǔn)備慶祝春節(jié)，而游子們要回家和家人團(tuán)聚了。由句中的return home to get together with their family可知，wanderers指“游子，離開家的人”，故應(yīng)選D。

【3】推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段中It just tells people to prepare for celebrating the coming New Year’s Day and for wanderers to return home to get together with their family.可知A、B兩個選項(xiàng)在文中提到了；根據(jù)第三段Long long ago, Laba Festival was a day of thanks for a good harvest可知C選項(xiàng)在文中提到了。根據(jù)文章最后一段Customs are quite different across the country.可知，全國各地關(guān)于臘八的風(fēng)俗習(xí)慣是不同的，故D選項(xiàng)不符合文意，選D。

【4】推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段中While in the past, It was used to let people remember to pay back the money they had borrowed, as Laba is near the end of the year and ‘garlic’ (suàn, 蒜 in Chinese) sounds the same as ‘calculate’(suàn, 算).可知，在過去，臘八節(jié)的時候把蒜放到醋里是用來gasoline人們要記得還他們借的錢，因?yàn)椤八狻钡淖x音與“算”是一樣的。由此可知應(yīng)選D。根據(jù)Laba garlic will be eaten with dumplings on Chinese New Year’s Day可知A和B不對；根據(jù)The festival is also the day for people to put garlic in vinegar可知C不對。

【5】主旨大意題。這篇短文給我們介紹了中國臘八節(jié)的一些風(fēng)俗，文章內(nèi)容都是圍繞這一節(jié)日展開的，故用The Laba Festival作為題目是最合適的，故選A。其他三個選項(xiàng)都只是文章一部分的內(nèi)容，太片面了。

這篇短文給我們介紹了中國臘八節(jié)的風(fēng)俗習(xí)慣。文章主題明確，結(jié)構(gòu)清晰，且話題有關(guān)學(xué)生們的日常生活，學(xué)生對這個節(jié)日和風(fēng)俗比較了解，這些都可以幫助學(xué)生們理解文意。后面的題目設(shè)置有細(xì)節(jié)理解題、推理判斷題和主旨大意題。細(xì)節(jié)題考查我們對文章某處事實(shí)信息的理解，答案�？梢栽谠闹苯诱业�。做題時，應(yīng)注意從題干中尋找關(guān)鍵詞，利用它定位到原文相關(guān)地方，搜索信息作答。例如第1小題，題目問的是臘八節(jié)的日期，注意文章中表示日期的數(shù)字、月份等，根據(jù)第二段中Today, people across China are celebrating the Laba Festival. It is a traditional Chinese festival. It’s on the eighth day of the 12th lunar month.可知，臘八節(jié)在中國農(nóng)歷的十二月初八，由此可知應(yīng)選D。主旨大意題考查我們給文章選擇適當(dāng)?shù)念}目，文章的標(biāo)題應(yīng)能概括文章大意，符合文章主題，且具有概括性、簡潔性、全面的特點(diǎn)。這篇短文主要介紹了中國的臘八節(jié)的一些風(fēng)俗，文章內(nèi)容都是圍繞這一節(jié)日展開的，故用The Laba Festival作為題目是最合適的，故選A。其他三個選項(xiàng)都只是文章一部分的內(nèi)容，太片面了，所以不行。

【題目】Many people run for exercise. But what will you do if you are not a “born” runner or jogger (慢跑者)? You may still want a kind of exercise that’s inexpensive and easy to do. Why not try walking?

Walking requires no special equipment (裝備). It is a kind of exercise that almost any normal, healthy person can do. Walking is good for your health like jogging or running; it will just take longer. Jogging and running make your heart work harder than walking. They also put more stress on your legs and feet than walking does.

The problem with walking is that most people don’t take it seriously. But there’s a big difference between serious walking and the walking that most of us do. Walking, like jogging, should have a steady and continuous motion (穩(wěn)健而持續(xù)的動作).

If you want to get your exercise by walking, you need to have your own walking plan. After all, runners and joggers set goals for themselves. Walkers need goals, too. You also need to set a course to walk. Start by walking about 15-30 minutes a day. Increase your time and distance (距離) slowly. And try increasing your walking speed little by little.

If you prefer to jog or run, follow the same advice. Start off slowly. Spend most of the first few days just walking. Then, start walking and running on the same day. Run or jog a short distance, then walk for a while, then, run, then walk. Follow that pattern for 15-30 minutes a day. Slowly make each run longer and each walk shorter. Later on, you can increase your distance, speed and exercise time.

任務(wù)一【1】 將劃線短語 a “born” runner 譯為漢語。

任務(wù)二 【2】列舉兩條Jogging和running對身體部位的影響。
