Thousands of years ago, birthdays were considered special days. On birthdays, the bad spirits were able to harm you and change your life. It was believed that the only way to solve the problem was to have your friends and family around you, so that good wishes and presents would keep the bad spirits away. Also, noisemakers were thought to be used at parties as a way of scaring away the evil spirits.

The custom of lighting candles was created by people believing that the gods lived in the sky. By lighting candles and torches, they were sending a signal or prayer to the gods, so they could be answered. Blowing out the candles and making a wish were thought to be another way of sending a signal or a message.

This is how the way we celebrate our birthdays came about. But different cultures celebrate in different ways.

The birthday story in the Bible(圣经) that we know best is about the birth of the Christ in Bethlehem(地名:伯利恒). For nearly 2000 years since that day, the Christian world has been honoring this birth. The day many Englishmen celebrate is, of course, Christmas. There are other references to birthday parties. King Pharaoh celebrated his birthday by making a feast for his court followers. That was over 4000 years ago. The story of King Herod tells that on his birthday he made a supper for his lords, high captains and other special friends in Galilee (地名:加利利).

According to the passage, good wishes and presents given by one’s friends and family on his birthday can _____________________.

A. cheer him up                           B. prove that he’s a popular person

C. bring him a big fortune                   D. push bad spirits away

A. how great the two kings were

B. how different cultures celebrate in different ways

Why should I teach my children history? That sounds like a stupid question to even ask.But,as I hear different home schooling teachers discuss history,I get the idea that there may be different reasons for teaching history.Let me briefly explain the three good reasons for studying history and two bad reasons for studying history.

The major reason I see for studying history is that we can learn from the past.I believe that the world would be a much better place if more people understood the successes and failures of the past and the things that made these successes and failures.However,as the unfortunately(不幸地)true statement goes ‘‘the one thing we seem to learn from history is that we don't seem to

learn from history”,perhaps at least in teaching history, to my children I can do a small part in changing this.

    A second major reason for studying history is that it is hard to understand the current(目前的)political climate in the absence of an understanding of its historical context(背景).We can not

even understand why we are and where we are without history,much less try to figure out where we are going or how we should get where we want to be.

    I teach my children history,for one more reason.I bought a set of historical audio tapes for our children.My seven-year-old son listened to them over and over.It was my hope that he would

become inspired by the accomplishments(成就)of people like the Wright brothers to accomplish things by himself.I think that it is good that we celebrate the accomplishments of people like Martin Luther King Jr. By doing so,young people are called on to stand for the principles that he stood for and accomplish what he didn’t accomplish.I also think that by studying people like Adolph Hitler,people can learn to stand against the things that he stood for.

1.What message can we get from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 ?

  A.Many people aren’t clever enough to learn well from the past.

  B.Many people fail to make good use of history and make the same mistakes.

  C.Many people feel it hard to understand history.

  D.Many people have no interest in studying history.

2.In Paragraph 3,the author shows that history is useful because

  A.it makes the current political situation go smoothly

  B.it helps us realize the importance of historical events

  C.it helps us understand why things are the way they are

  D.it helps people accept the present situation where they live

3.Some historical figures are mentioned in the last paragraph to show____.

  A.people can be inspired to do good and also learn to fight against evil

  B.people may also learn from bad historical figures

  C.more celebrations should be held to honor their achievements

  D.today’s people can also achieve what they achieved

4.What would be talked about in the following paragraph?

  A.How to teach history effectively.

  B.Some negative reasons for studying history.

  C.How to get more people to study history.

  D.Some bad historical figures.
