Question

【題目】

Everyone loves holidays and festivals. But do you know a holiday that is celebrated every month? Yes, it's the only holiday that takes place twelve times a year—Bonza Bottler Day.

Bonza Bottler Day is celebrated once a month when the number of the month is the same as the number of the day (Jun. 1, Feb. 2, March. 3). When the number of the year also matches the number of the day and month (August 8, 2008), there is reason to have a bigger celebration.

Elaine Fermont from America came up with the idea for Bonza Bottler Day on August, 1985. She created it when she realized that there were no special chances to celebrate one month. She decide to give herself a reason to have a party and some fun with this special day every month.

Mrs. Fremont held a competition to give the day a special name, which a student from Australia won. When Australians like something, they might shout,” Bonza!”. The word means super, great or fantastic. And “Bottler"is slang(俚語)for something excellent. So the holiday is known as Bonza Bottler Day.

Bonza Bottler Day has no tradition. You are free to do whatever you want. People in offices and hospitals bring food to share. Bonza Bottler Day is a favorite with many schools because it gives a break to students. The holiday can be Candy Day, Ice Cream Day, Be Kind to Classmates Day, No Homework Day, Picnic Day, and the list goes on.

【解析】

本文介紹了Bonza Bottler Day的由來及慶祝方式。

【1】

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Bonza Bottler Day is celebrated once a month when the number of the month is the same as the number of the day (Jun. 1, Feb. 2, March. 3)，可知月份和日期相同就是Bonza Bottler Day。結(jié)合所給選項(xiàng)，B選項(xiàng)的月份和日期不相同，所以不是Bonza Bottler Day，故選B。

【2】

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Mrs. Fremont held a competition to give the day a special name, which a student from Australia won，可知，伊萊恩舉辦了一場為這個節(jié)日命名的比賽,一個澳大利亞的學(xué)生勝出，所以這個節(jié)日的名字是由這個澳大利亞學(xué)生命名的。故選C。

【3】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)Bonza Bottler Day is celebrated once a month when the number of the month is the same as the number of the day (Jun. 1, Feb. 2, March. 3). When the number of the year also matches the number of the day and month (August 8, 2008), there is reason to have a bigger celebration，可知，這個節(jié)日是用來慶祝每個月中月份和日期相同的那一天，當(dāng)年份也和月份，日期相匹配時(shí)，會有一個更大的慶祝，所以A選項(xiàng)錯誤。根據(jù)She decide to give herself a reason to have a party and some fun with this special day every month，可知，弗里蒙特夫人創(chuàng)造了這個節(jié)日是為了給自己每個月開派對的理由，所以B選項(xiàng)錯誤。根據(jù)When Australians like something, they might shout,” Bonza!”. The word means super, great or fantastic，可知，澳大利亞人喜歡某個東西時(shí)，他們可能會喊“優(yōu)秀”，所以個詞跟澳大利亞的文化息息相關(guān)，故C選項(xiàng)錯誤。根據(jù)Bonza Bottler Day has no tradition. You are free to do whatever you want，可知，你可以用任何方式去慶祝這個節(jié)日，所以D選項(xiàng)正確。故選D。
