According to the traditional Chinese lunar calendar, we officially welcome the Year of the Horse better than others.
The horse has played an important role throughout human history all over the world. Horses were used for thousands of years as a means of transportation, a weapon of war and a plougher of fields(犁地農(nóng)具), but “the horse was more than just a vehicle – it had more character than a car, a tank or a tractor,” Clare Balding wrote for The Telegraph.
In the Middle Ages in Western societies, the horse was a symbol of chivalry (騎士精神) and nobility(貴族). In fact, the word “chivalry” comes from “cheval” in Old French, which meant horse. The idea of chivalry helped to fashion the 19th-century “gentleman”, which was about good manners, courage and honesty to friends.
Nowadays, because of economic(經(jīng)濟(jì)) development, people in Western societies are less likely to see or ride horses. People living in cities, in particular, hardly ever experience horses except through movies, paintings or  books. But horse racing, and betting money on horse races, is still popular. The Kentucky Derby is one of the most popular sporting events every year in the US.
In the UK, the royal police still go around the city on horseback and the Queen rides in a traditional horse-drawn carriage on “ceremonial occasions (正式場(chǎng)合)”.
Some sayings about horses are still used in English today. For example, people still say “hold your horses” to mean “slow down”. If someone seems too proud, people might tell him or her to “get off his or her high horse”. And since horses are strong and energetic, there are expressions such as “as strong as a horse”, “workhorse” and “horsing around”.
Interestingly, the horse also appears in many Chinese sayings, such as Qianlima, which means a talented person. Other Chinese horse sayings include Madaochenggong (instant success) and Baimawangzi (prince charming).
Besides their physical strengths, horses are smart and have “excellent memories”, according to Discovery News. Maybe that’s why Chinese people say, “An old horse never gets lost”.
Since the horse is honored as a symbol of many great qualities, people born in the Year of the Horse are said to share them.

【小題1】 According to Chinese tradition, which year is welcomed best officially?

A．the Year of the SnakeB．the Year of the Tiger
C．the Year of the MouseD．the Year of the Horse
【小題2】According to the passage, which is NOT the role of the horse nowadays?
A．A weapon of war.
B．The royal police’s transportation to go around in the UK.
C．Race horses.
D．Animal actors in movies.
【小題3】 If a friend of yours is overconfident, what are you supposed to tell him or her?
A．Hold your horses.B．Get off your high horse.
C．Be as strong as a horseD．An old horse never gets lost
【小題4】 According to the passage, which is NOT the reason why people like horses?
A．The horse has played an important role throughout human history all over the world
B．The horse was a symbol of chivalry and nobility in the Middle Ages in Western societies.
C．Besides their physical strengths, horses are smart and have “excellent memories”.
D．Horses are only used as a means of transportation like a car, a tank or a tractor.
【小題5】 From the passage we know that ____________.
A．Economy develops a lot, so people in Western societies hardly see or ride horses nowadays.
B．The Kentucky Derby is one of the most popular betting events every year in the US.
C．Qianlima in Chinese means a person who can run one thousand kilometers a day.
D．Since the horse is honored as a symbol of many great qualities, people born in the Year of the Horse are said to be as strong as a horse.

You may know the English letters A, B and C. But do you know there are people called ABCs? Do you know there is such a thing as “a banana person”? How strange! ABC means American-born Chinese. An ABC is a Chinese, but was born in the United States. Sometimes, people call an ABC a “banana person”. A banana is yellow outside. So, when a person is a “banana”, he or she is white inside—thinking like a Westerner and yellow outside—looking like a Chinese.
Usually, ABCs know little about China or the Chinese language. Some of them don’t speak Chinese. But if ABCs cannot speak Chinese, can we still call them Chinese people? Yes, of course. They are overseas（海外的）Chinese. These people may be citizens（公民）of another country like the US, Canada or Singapore. But they have Chinese blood. Their parents, grandparents or even great-grandparents were from China. They all have black eyes and black hair.
But they are not Chinese citizens. They are people of the People’s Republic of China. For example, we all know the famous scientist C. N. Yang（楊振寧）. He got the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1957. Chinese people love him. But he is an American citizen.

In most languages, a greeting is usually followed by "small talk". Small talk means the little things we talk about at the start of a conversation. In English-speaking countries people often make small talk about the weather: "Nice day, isn't it?" "Terrible weather, isn't it?" But there is something special about small talk. It must be about something which both people have the same opinion about. The purpose of small. talk is to let both people agree on something. This makes meeting people easier and more comfortable. People usually agree about the weather, so it is a safe topic for small talk. But people often disagree about religion or politics so these are not suitable topics for small talk in English. The topics for small talk also depend on where the conversation is taking place. At football matches, people make small talk about the game they are watching: "Great game, isn't it?" At bus-stops, people may comment about the transport system: "The bus service is terrible, isn't it?"
Greetings and small talk are an important part of conversation in any language. The way people greet each other and the things they talk about, however, may be different from one language to another. This shows that there is much more to learn when we learn a language than just the vocabulary and the grammar of the language. We also have to learn the social behavior of the people who speak it.
【小題1】The passage suggests that when we learn a language______.

A．we should know the culture about the country
B．we should only master the grammar and vocabulary
C．we should grasp the importance of the language
D．we should learn about the transport system of the country
【小題2】 When we say "Great game, isn't it?" we in fact______.
A．have a conversation B．begin a small talk
C．greet each other D．a(chǎn)sk a question
【小題3】 What we learn from the passage is that______.
A．in English-speaking countries we should talk about the weather
B．different language has different grammar
C．small talk is an important part in a language
D．small talk depends on the purpose of the conversation
