Every year, as Spring Festival draws near, most Chinese people will get excited to make preparation for the most important festival and make plan for the winter break. It is a little like Christmas in the United States, but there are some differences between the two festivals.

Both the major Chinese and the major Western holidays come during the cold season, and special food is expected. In western countries, cookies and cakes begin just after Thanksgiving in November and show up everywhere. Turkey, potatoes and other food come later. Similar thing happens in China. Entering lunar December, most families will make shopping plans for the coming big day and food is certainly one of the most important things to be considered. At the end of the month, both parents in each family will be very busy---the father is busy buying food while the mother is busy cooking.

A deeper similarity (相似处) is tradition. Christmas, as the letters “Christ” suggests, began as a holiday to celebrate the birthday of Jesus Christ. Many people pray (祈祷) on this day. In China, people living in cities or towns, though they don’t plan to sow seeds(播种) this month, still celebrate on the big day for farmers.

Followers of both holidays are also different from each other. While Chinese people travel to the homes of elder relatives, Americans usually call or send cards. Westerners prefer Christmas carols to fireworks. In Christmas, many family gifts come together instead of one by one, since adults may have only one day free to celebrate.

But the most curious difference is about students. Chinese students going home for Spring Festival sometimes report that they get bored by the end of vacation, yet American students seldom get bored around Christmas and western New Year.

Not everyone enjoys classic holiday traditions. Students in western countries may get upset, as too much homework, travel or bad family relations may destroy the short holiday season. In China, more and more college students choose to travel or work during the winter holiday instead of going home to stay with their families. It’s against the tradition but many people accept it.

1.What does “the coming big day” (Paragraph 2) refer to?

A.Christmas                             B.Thanksgiving Day

C.the New Year’s Day                     D.the Spring Festival

2.The second and the third paragraphs mainly talk about ________.

A.the similarities between Christmas and the Spring Festival

B.the differences between Christmas and the Spring Festival

C.the preparations for Christmas and the Spring Festival

D.the history of Christmas and the Spring Festival

3.What does the writer mainly want to tell us in this passage?

A.Food in different festivals.

B.Differences between two festivals.

C.Festivals in China and western countries.

D.Traditional celebrations in different countries.

People are being lured (引诱)onto Facebook with the promise of a fun, free service without realizing they’re paying for it by giving up large amounts of personal information. Facebook then attempts to make money by selling their data to advertisers that want to send targeted messages.

  Most Facebook users don’t realize this is happening. Even if they know what the company is up to, they still have no idea what they’re paying for Facebook because people don’t really know what their personal data is worth.

  The biggest problem, however, is that the company keeps changing the rules. Early on, you keep everything private. That was the great thing about facebook—you could create your own little private network. Last year, the company changed its privacy rules so that many things— your city, your photo, your friends' names—were set, by default (默认)to be shared with everyone on the Internet.

  According to Facebook’s vice-president Elliot Schrage, the company is simply making changes to improve its service, and if people don’t share information, they have a “less satisfying experience”.

  Some critics think this is more about Facebook looking to make more money. Its original business model, which involved selling ads and putting them at the side of the page, totally failed.  Who wants to look at ads when they’re online connecting with their friends?

  The privacy issue has already landed Facebook in hot water in Washington. In April. Senator Charles Schumer called on Facebook to change its privacy policy. He also urged the Federal Trade Commission to set guidelines for social-networking sites.“I think the senator rightly communicated that we had not been clear about what the new products were and how people could choose to use them or not to use them,” Schrage admits.

I suspect that whatever Facebook has done so far to invade our privacy, it’s only the beginning, which is why I’m considering deactivating(撤销)my account. Facebook is a handy site, but I’m upset by the idea that my information is in the hands of people I don’t know. That’s too high a price to pay.

1.What do we learn about Facebook from the first paragraph?

A.It is a website that sends messages to targeted users.

B.It makes money by putting on advertisements.

C.It profits by selling its users’ personal data.

D.It provides loads of information to its users.

2.What does the author say about most Facebook users?

A.They are reluctant to give up their personal information.

B.They don’t know their personal data enriches Facebook.

C.They don’t identify themselves when using the website.

D.They care very little about their personal information.

3.Why does Senator Charles Schumer propose?

A.Setting guidelines for advertising on websites.

B.Banning the sharing of users’ personal information.

C.Working out regulations for social-networking sites.

D.Removing ads from all social-networking sites.

4.Why does the author plan to cancel his Facebook account?

A.He is dissatisfied with its current service.

B.He finds many of its users untrustworthy.

C.He doesn’t want his personal data to be used in a wrong way.

D.He is upset by its frequent rule changes.
