Dear Peter，
Delighted to know of your interest in traditional Chinese festivals，I'd recommend Spring Festival to you as a typical Chinese celebration．
Spring Festival represents the most essential occasion for Chinese，as we both have family get-togethers．This grand festival also features particular celebrations to get rid of the evils and embrace the fortune，ranging from a thorough clean-up to firework displays，which create an energetic and cheerful atmosphere．　
By helping you understand its importance and special celebrations，I am hoping to encourage you to find out more about our tradition．
Yours sincerely，
Li Hua
[片段1]
Without saying anything，she got up，pushed me out of the room and shut the door to my face．Annoyed，I told her she was an awful sister and daughter，and that nobody needed her in any case．Then，I set out to shovel the snow and was filled with anger．
她一句話也沒說就站起來，把我推出房間，當著我的面關上了門。我很生氣地告訴她，她是一個令人討厭的姐姐和女兒，無論如何都沒有人需要她。然后，我開始鏟雪，滿腔怒火。
[片段2]
It was Saturday morning，and all the summer world was bright and fresh，filled with life．There was cheer in every face and a spring in every step．The air was filled with the pleasant smell of flowers．Furthermore，Cardiff Hill，beyond the village and above it，was green with trees and looked beautiful．
夏日周六的早晨，陽光明媚，空氣新鮮，處處洋溢著生機。每個人臉上都洋溢著歡樂，每個人都邁著輕快的步伐。空氣里彌漫著花香。此外，村莊外高聳的卡第夫山上覆蓋著郁郁蔥蔥的樹木，顯得格外美麗。

In the past two years，instead of my favourite maple-frosted donut(楓糖霜甜甜圈) cake，I had one birthday request for my family—hiking and a picnic together．Thankfully，it was my special day，so they only rolled their eyes and sighed once and then agreed to come along—exploring new places and discovering hidden waterfalls．
That was the past two years．That's not today．
Today is my birthday，and I'm on the other side of the world．I wish that I could hang out with my family and friends in the US．Just for today—on my birthday．
We are “lonely internationals”．It's hard．I won't pretend it's not．
My mother，“Nana” to my four boys，tells me regularly how she has missed almost all of her grandsons' birthday celebrations．She intentionally connects with them through texts and Face Time on their birthdays so that she can join us for the time of singing “Happy Birthday” and see the kids blow out their candles．
However，that is not the same as “being there” physically together．She feels like she misses our major life milestones called “birthdays”．
Today，I'm okay．My mother has made an e-card for me，sent to my email box early this morning．She never forgets．My in-laws，my sister and her family，my sweet friend in France，and my dear friends here in Spain and over there in the US have already wished me “Happy Birthday” online．Some even mailed me cards and gifts across the sea．
The only “gifts” I'm missing are maple-frosted donuts for a birthday cake．My mother tried to bring them to me in Europe when she travelled to visit me．However，after a 20-hour trip across the sea，they weren't so fresh anymore．
Tonight，we will have a special dinner outside on our back porch in the cool，evening air．I will blow out a lot of candles on my birthday cake．
I am happy．I have breath，life，a heartbeat，and deep inner joy from the love of my family and friends around the world．
【語篇解讀】　本文是一篇夾敘夾議文。作者身處異國他鄉，過生日的感受與以往有很大不同。
4．How has the author celebrated her birthday for the past two years
A．By hanging out with her friends．
B．By eating her favourite birthday cake．
C．By travelling to new places on her own．
D．By hiking and picnicking with her family．
√
D　[細節理解題。由第一段中的“In the past two years，instead of my favourite maple-frosted donut cake，I had one birthday request for my family—hiking and a picnic together．”可知，前兩年過生日時，作者選擇和家人一起遠足野餐。]
5．What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 6 refer to
A．Singing “Happy Birthday”．
B．Feeling far away on one's birthdays．
C．Celebrating others' birthdays online．
D．Connecting with people through texts．
C　[代詞指代題。畫線詞上一段講述了作者母親遠程給外孫慶祝生日的方式，而畫線詞所在句出現轉折，說明那種方式與親自在場慶祝生日不同。因此可推斷，that指代通過網絡遠程慶祝生日。]
√
6．What did the author's mother do to celebrate her birthday this year
A．She sent her an e-card．
B．She made her a hand-written card．
C．She travelled long hours to visit her．
D．She sent her some maple-frosted donuts．
A　[細節理解題。由第七段中的“My mother has made an e-card for me，sent to my email box early this morning．”可知，“今年”作者的母親給她發了張電子賀卡來慶祝她的生日。]
√
7．What did the author think of her birthday this year
A．It was full of surprises．
B．It brought more sadness than happiness．
C．It made her feel loved and remembered．
D．It was a sign of being far away from those she loves．
C　[推理判斷題。由第七段和最后一段可知，“今年”生日時，作者的親朋好友紛紛用各種方式從遠方送來祝福，作者很開心，并為收到家人和朋友的愛感到喜悅。因此，作者“今年”的生日讓作者感到被愛和掛念。]
√
C
The Sister Rice Festival is held every year in Guizhou's Taijiang County，where 97 percent of the 168，000 people are from the ethnic(民族的)Miao group．It is an ancient tradition，which brings men and women together through food，gifts and music．
In the days before the festival，young women gather leaves and wild flowers，which they use to dye(給……染色)sticky rice with bright colors．The brightly colored rice，known as Sister Rice，gives the festival its name．During the festival，the young women dress in beautiful traditional clothes with large amounts of silver jewelry(首飾)．
The festival includes parades，horse races and musical performances．But the real focus is the interaction between the young women and the young men who visit from surrounding villages and sing songs．In one traditional type of song，a man and a woman take turns to sing to each other，and the first one to make a mistake loses the game．The loser must give the winner a gift，but the winner is expected to give a gift in return，too．
After meeting the men，the women send them home with a bamboo basket containing dyed rice and hidden objects with special meanings．For example，a pair of chopsticks indicates that she wants to marry the man，while garlic shows that she is not interested．
One of several stories about the festival's beginning is about a girl and a boy who fell in love．The girl's parents wanted her to marry her uncle's son．She refused，and the boy likewise refused to marry anyone else．For a time，they could only meet in a field and pass hidden messages to each other through rice in a bamboo basket．Finally，the pair overcame their parents' opposition and were allowed to marry．
The Sister Rice Festival is perhaps the oldest festival in Asia that encourages love．
【語篇解讀】　本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了貴州苗族姊妹節的習俗及它的起源。
8．What is the purpose of young women collecting leaves and wild flowers
A．To decorate their rooms．
B．To sell them and make money．
C．To give sticky rice different colors．
D．To cover some objects in a basket．
√
C　[細節理解題。根據第二段中的“In the days before the festival，young women gather leaves and wild flowers，which they use to dye sticky rice with bright colors．”可知，年輕的女子收集葉子和野花的目的是給糯米染不同的顏色。]
9．Which of the following is NOT the activity taking place in the festival
A．Water skiing． B．Horse races．
C．Parades． D．Singing songs．
A　[細節理解題。根據第三段中的“The festival includes parades，horse races and musical performances．”可知，water skiing(滑水)不在此節日的活動中。]
√
10．What can we learn from the passage
A．A woman often loses the game．
B．A hidden pair of chopsticks suggests good things．
C．The winner needs not send a gift．
D．Often a man needs to sing songs to a young woman．
B　[推理判斷題。根據第四段中的“a pair of chopsticks indicates that she wants to marry the man”可以推斷，一雙藏在竹籃里的筷子暗示著好事。]
√
11．The story in paragraph 5 tells us that ________．
A．the boy's parents didn't like the girl
B．they were not married in the end
C．the boy refused to marry the girl at first
D．the rice in the bamboo basket carried their love
√
D　[段落大意題。第五段主要講了一個關于苗族姊妹節的起源的故事——一個女孩和一個男孩墜入了愛河，在克服困難后最終結婚了。根據第五段中的“For a time，they could only meet in a field and pass hidden messages to each other through rice in a bamboo basket．”可知，本段的故事告訴我們，竹籃里的米承載著他們的愛。]
D
Every festival has its own meaning．Labour Day，for example，celebrates the value of hard work．But somehow it now seems that while celebrating all festivals we just care about one thing—shopping．And that can be a big problem．
“In a way，over-consumption(過度消費) is the mother of all our environmental problems，” Kalle Lasn once told CNN．Lasn is the organiser of Buy Nothing Day，a day set up in Canada in 1992 to fight against unhealthy spending habits，and has now become an international event．It's held on the day，which is known as Black Friday—a famous shopping day in the US and Canada．
You can see something strange here．
Even though the idea of Buy Nothing Day was brought up 27 years ago，we seem to need it now more than ever．It's just as Lasn said，all the different kinds of dilemmas(困境) in our lives today—bad air quality，the reduction of forest area，endangered animal species，and plastic bags found in the ocean—seem to have the same cause: over-consumption．
The latest example is the Singles' Day shopping craze(狂熱)of Nov．11，which saw a new sales record．But as Nie Li，an organiser at Greenpeace，told Reuters，“Record-setting over-consumption means record-setting waste．” And it was reported that last year the Singles' Day packages left more than 160，000 tons of waste，including plastic and cardboard．The Collins Dictionary has also just named “single-use” its Word of the Year，pointing out the problem that there're too many things we throw away after only using them once．
So，Buy Nothing Day might only be here for one day a year，but it's not just to remind us about a break from shopping on that day，but to change our lifestyle completely，focusing on fun “with people we care about” rather than wasting money on useless things．

19 .
In China，this festival is in late January or early February，the last day of the lunar year．People celebrate it by having a family reunion dinner，setting off fireworks and staying up late． 20 ， but if you did it，you have to say: “sui sui ping an”．It is a pun(雙關語)，meaning you will be healthy every year．

【語篇解讀】　本文是一篇說明文。文章主要講述了端午節的起源和傳統以及國外的一些慶祝情況。
36．probably　[考查詞性轉換。此處修飾整個句子，應用副詞作狀語，故填probably。]
37．which　[考查定語從句。此處是非限制性定語從句，New Year是先行詞，在句子中作主語，應用關系代詞which引導。]
38．has moved　[考查動詞時態和主謂一致。根據時間狀語in recent years可知，應用現在完成時；主語為單數概念。故填has moved。]
39．with　[考查介詞。此處考查固定搭配。along with “與……一起”。]
40．dating　[考查非謂語動詞。date back to與主語it之間是邏輯上的主謂關系，應用動詞-ing形式作后置定語，故填dating。]
41．to save　[考查非謂語動詞。此處為目的狀語，應用動詞不定式，故填to save。]
42．wrapped　[考查非謂語動詞。動詞wrap與空前名詞rice之間是邏輯上的動賓關系，應用過去分詞短語修飾rice，作后置定語，故填 wrapped。]
43．imagination　[考查詞性轉換。定冠詞the后接名詞，故填 imagination。]
44．are held　[考查動詞的時態、語態和主謂一致。由前面的Every spring可知，句子應用一般現在時；boat races在定語從句中作主語，為復數概念，與hold之間是被動關系，因此用一般現在時的被動語態。故填are held。]
