—What’s the name of the song you sang just now ?It beautiful.
—It is When Christmas Comes to Town..
A. was sounded B. sounded C. was heard D. heard
B 【解析】句意：- 你刚刚唱的这首歌的名字是什么？它听起来很美。- 这是“圣诞节来到城里的时候”。Sound能够作为感官系动词，后加形容词，表示“听起来…”，这个结构没有被动语态，排除A，hear是“听”，不能表示“听起来”，排除C/D，描述的是“之前听起来”，用一般过去时sounded，故选B。科目：初中英语 来源：2018年江苏省无锡市中考英语试卷 题型：阅读单选
From Asia to America and everywhere in between, Swing-an energetic form of dance that includes six-step and eight-step rhythms(节奏) - has taken the world by storm. Making a recent comeback, swing dance floors have popped up all over the world. Many clubs make fans of Swing happy by holding nights when swing music is played, and sometimes even offering classes to attract customers.
Though Swing is now popular worldwide, it first appeared alongside the jazz movements of the 1920s and 1930s in New York City. While listening to jazz, the young black people of that time developed the movements of the Lindy Hop - a style of dance that is best known for a break away or ‘swing out’ move and sudden improvisation(即兴表演).
It was reportedly given this name when a reporter was interviewing a person at the dance hall who was watching other couples dance. When asked what that dance was called, the watcher looked at a newspaper next to him that had an article about Lindbergh- the first person to fly alone across the Atlantic(大西洋)-which was titled, ‘Lindy Hops the Atlantic’. Then the watcher announced that the ‘Lindy Hop’ was the name of the dance, and it has stuck since then.
In 1926, the Savoy Ballroom was the first large business to offer a place for people to listen to swing music and dance. With its huge dance floor, the Savoy became a big success overnight, attracting some of the best dancers and musicians in the New York area.
Within ten years, the Lindy Hops was sweeping through the United States and became a symbol of unity, as young people of all racial(种族的)backgrounds crowded into dance halls to swing the night away. Traditional dance teachers did not welcome it because they thought it was not even a real dance and were quite sure about its demise but Swing has proved them wrong; it continues to be one of the world’s most fun dances.
1.The writing purpose of this passage is __________.
A. to introduce a popular form of dance
B. to discover the fun secrets of a dance
C. to tell stories about an energetic dance
D. to describe the special moves of a dance
2.Which of the following words has the closest meaning to ‘demise’?
A. Challenge. B. Change. C. Development. D. Death.
3.What can we learn about Swing?
A. It’s a lively dance with strict rules.
B. It has a close connection to a pilot.
C. It has a history of around 90 years.
D. It attracts mostly young black people.
4.What can we infer(推断)from the passage?
A. The dance style will soon be accepted by traditional dance teachers.
B. The name was changed from ‘Lindy Hop’ to ‘Swing’ in the 1940s.
C. The movements of different Swing dancers always look the same.
D. The dance might have become unpopular sometime in its history.

When I spent Christmas away from home in Europe for the first time, I was only 14 and it was certainly terrible. I am now married and live in the US. So there is little possibility for me to go home for Christmas. Now I am able to get through Christmas with some moments of joy:
First, you are advised to search your area for stores that carry items from your home country or town. Buy food, candles and some other things that mean something to you.
Hold on to the traditions from your home that you think are important even if other people think they are stupid. But keep in mind to be open for new traditions from wherever you might be, because those traditions are as important to those people around you as yours are to you. For me that includes celebrating Christmas on the 24th.
Call, write Christmas cards, buy gifts and mail them to loved ones, just as if you were there. If you try to be as if the holiday doesn't exist, you are just going to make it worse.
Introduce your traditions to your loved ones, especially your kids. It will only enrich their celebration of the holiday to have some special traditions in their home. Little by little it will become their tradition and it’s fun for them to try something new.
Food is one of the most important factors in any kind of tradition. Find the recipe (食谱) of that cake your grandmother used and make it your tradition to bake that particular cake.
Call up your parents and get them to send you some of your favorite childhood ornaments (装饰品) for your tree.
Pay attention to new traditions, talk to your family about which ones you want to make your own and stick with them.
If you are far away from home, Christmas can never be the same as you experienced it before, but it is important to remember these traditions while enjoying the new ones.
