【3】A

【4】B

【解析】

本文介紹了中國的臘八節(jié)，臘八節(jié)這一天，人們會喝臘八粥。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“Laba Festival, which falls on the eighth day of layue, is the first festival in this month.”可知，臘八節(jié)是在農(nóng)歷的臘月初八。故選D。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“On Laba Festival, people often eat hot Laba porridge.”可知，人們通過喝臘八粥來慶祝臘八節(jié)。故選C。

【3】詞義猜測題。根據(jù)前半句“People begin to soak（浸泡）garlic in vinegar（醋)from that day on”可知，人們在臘八節(jié)那天用醋泡蒜，也就是臘八蒜，所以此處是“在新年的時候，人們就著臘八蒜吃餃子”，所以代詞it代指的就是上文中的臘八蒜。故選A。

【4】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。People in the south like to make Laba garlic on Laba Festival.南方的人們喜歡在臘八節(jié)的時候做臘八蒜。根據(jù)文中“Laba garlic（蒜）is popular in the north.”可知，臘八蒜在北方很流行，而不是南方，所以A項(xiàng)表述錯誤；When Laba Festival is over, the Chinese New Year is coming.當(dāng)臘八節(jié)結(jié)束的時候，中國新年就要到了。根據(jù)文中“From this day on, people begin to get ready for the Chinese New Year.”可知，從臘八節(jié)開始，人們開始準(zhǔn)備中國新年，也就說臘八節(jié)結(jié)束，新年就來了，所以B項(xiàng)表述正確；Chinese people have the same customs on Laba Festival.在臘八節(jié)，中國人有相同的習(xí)俗。根據(jù)文中“Laba garlic（蒜）is popular in the north.”和“While in the south, people like making sausages.”可知，在臘八節(jié)，北方的人們喜歡做臘八蒜，南方的人們喜歡做臘腸，由此可見習(xí)俗不一樣，所以C項(xiàng)表述錯誤；Laba Festival is the last Chinese festival in layue.臘八節(jié)是臘月里最后一個中國節(jié)日。根據(jù)句中“Laba Festival, which falls on the eighth day of layue, is the first festival in this month.”可知，臘八節(jié)是臘月的第一個節(jié)日，所以D項(xiàng)表述錯誤。故選B。

“Make-A-Wish” is one of the world's most well-known charities. It makes wishes come true for children who have serious illnesses. It gives them hope and joy and helps them forget about their health problems and have fun.

It all started in 1980 in phoenix, Arizona(亞利桑那州). Christopher was a 7-year-old boy who was very sick. He always dreamed of becoming a police officer. Tommy Austin and Ron Cox, two police officers, made his wish come true. They gave Christopher a tour of the city in a police helicopter(直升飛機(jī)) and made a real police uniform for him.

There are four kinds of wishes children usually have:

(1) I wish to go. Children usually want to travel or go to a concert, a game or a park.

(2) I wish to meet. Children sometimes want to meet their favorite actors, singers or players.

(3) I wish to be. Some children wish to become actors, singers or police officers.

(4) I wish to have. They often want to have a computer, a game, a bike or many other things.

Let's hope more wishes will come true in the future. People who work in the charity always try for the best. Almost 25,000 volunteers help, work or give money. Will you be one of them?

【題目】 Oink! The Year of the Pig is coming. How much do you know about pigs? Do you like them? Many people don't, because they believe that pigs are naturally fat, lazy and dirty. But are any of those things true?

It is true that pigs are fat. They eat a lot. But they are useful to us. We get more than just pork from pigs. We can use their skin to make shoes. We can use their hair to make brushes. Pigs also provide us with ingredients for drugs like insulin(胰島素). Insulin can treat diabetes (糖尿病).

People sometimes say. “You are as stupid as a pig.” But pigs are not stupid. In fact pigs are one of the 10 smartest animals. They have a good memory and can tell different shapes apart. Many experts think pigs are easier to train than dogs or cats. In France, people teach pigs to find truffles(松露). With their good sense of smell, they can find truffles even faster than dogs.

When you see pigs, they are usually in dirty water or mud. That's because pigs have no sweat glands(汗腺). On hot days, they have to cool themselves in water or mud. This keeps insects away from them as well. Mud can also protect their skin from sunburns.

These stereotypes about pigs often make us hold a negative(負(fù)面的) view about the animal. For example, If someone eats a lot, we say that they have “pigged out”. If someone's room is very messy, we might say his or her room looks like a pigsty(豬圈).

But people in ancient China really liked pigs. People thought the pig's big head and ears were a symbol of good luck. If someone had a round and chubby(胖乎乎的) face, he or she was thought to be blessed(有福氣的). People also believed the animal, stood for wealth, as humans use every part of the pig. Piggy banks are a symbol of this. Most children have a piggy bank that they can use to save money.

【1】People can use pigs' skin to___________.

A.make clothesB.make insulin

C.make shoesD.make brushes

【2】According to the passage, pigs can____________.

A.tell one hundred different colors apart.B.find truffles with their good eyesight.

C.be of great help to people like dogs.D.get away from insects with their owners' help.

【3】Which of the following best explained the underlined word “stereotypes”?

A.fixed ideasB.feelingsC.mistakesD.decorations

【4】Why did the people in ancient China like pigs?

A.People thought pigs were blessed by God.

B.People believed the animal stood for health.

C.People knew pigs were one of the 10 smartest animals.

D.People thought pigs can bring good luck to them.

【5】The writer wrote this passage mainly to_____________.

A.tell that pigs are not stupid, dirty or fat at all.B.criticize people who don't really know about pigs.

C.point out that pigs can do a lot of things for people.D.help people know more about the pigs.

【題目】 When I was in primary school, I got into a major argument(爭論) with a boy named Michael in my class. I have forgotten what the argument was about, but I have never forgotten the lesson I learned that day.

I was convinced that I was right and he was wrong, and Michael was just as convinced that I was wrong and he was right. The teacher decided to teach us a very important lesson. She brought us up to the front of the class, placed Michael on one side of her desk and me on the other. In the middle of her desk was a large, round object. I could clearly see that it was black. And she asked Michael what color the object was, “White,” he answered.

I couldn’t believe he said the object was white, when it was obviously black! Another argument started between Michael and me, this time about the color of the object.

The teacher told me to go stand where Michael was standing and told him to come and stand where I had been. We changed places, and now she asked me what the color of the object was. I had to answer, “White.” It was an object with two differently colored sides, and from his viewpoint（視角）it was white. Only from my side it was black.

My teacher taught me a very important lesson that day. You must stand in the other person’s shoes and look at the situation through their eyes in order to truly understand their perspective.

【1】What was the argument about between the author(作者) and Michael at first?

A.The color of the object.B.The answer of a math question.
