         Dragons can be friendly or fierce (凶狠), they can bring good luck or cause death, but one  thing is
    sure——people  talk about  them almost everywhere in the world. For a creature that doesn't actually
    exist, that's quite something.
         In Chinese culture, dragons are generous and wise, although  they can be ①unpredictable. The
    dragon was closely connected  to  the royal  family: theemperor's robes (礼袍) have a symbol of a gold
    dragon with five claws. ②Other members of the royal family were allowed to wear dragon symbols, too,
    but with fewer claws and of a different colour. According  to popular belief,  if you were born  in  the
    year of the dragon, you are intelligent, brave, and a natural leader.
         But in the west, dragons had a different reputation (名声). The very first text in English, the
    Anglo-Saxon poem Beowulf, tells the story of a Scandinavian hero, Beowulf, who fights and kills a
    dangerous dragon but is himself killed in the fight. However, across the border in Wales, the red
    dragon which appears on the Welsh flag is a positive symbol, indicating strength and a sense of national
    identity.
       ③Why should  the dragon have a different character  in different parts of  the world? Some experts
    believe it is due to the animals that  the myths grew out of.  In  the west,  the  idea of  the dragon
    probably came  from  the snake——an animal which people hated and ④____ ____of (害怕). 
         But in China, the idea of the dragon may have come from  the alligator--a shy animal which lives in
    rivers, but which  is usually only seen when  there  is plenty of water--a good sign for agriculture(农业).
    So the Chinese dragon was a bringer of ⑤good fortune.
    1.(A) 请写出文中画线部分①unpredictable的汉语意思：
       _______________.
       (B) 请从文中找出与画线部分⑤good fortune意思相近的短语：
       _______________.
    2.将文中画线部分②改成主动语态：
       They ____________________________________
    3.将 文 中 画 线 句 子 ③ 翻 译 成 汉 语 ：
       _______________________________
    4.根据文中④处的汉语提示，用英语将句子补充完整，每空一词。
       In  the west,  the  idea of  the dragon probably came from the snake-an animal which people hated and _______ _______ of (害怕).
    5．What  are  the  differences  between Chinese dragons and western dragons? (从文中找出相关描
    述的英语单词或短语，每空至少一个。)
    Chinese dragons：_____________        
    Western dragons：___________..
