【题目】 Many people want to travel around the world and enjoy new cultures, especially the different festivals. There are festivals going on somewhere in the world every day of the year. These range from very large events which involve whole cities to local celebrations in tiny villages or neighborhoods of towns or cities. We have selected a few of the more unusual, colorful festivals from around the world. You can choose anyone you like best!
The Million Ringgit Charity Duck Race: Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
Thirteen years ago, Eric Schechter and his friends were brainstorming to find new ways of raising money for local charities when they came up with the idea of rubber duck races. The event, crazy as it may sound, involves racing "cool" rubber ducks down a local waterway and having members of the community "adopt" the ducks for a chance to win valuable donated prizes, possibly even $1 million bucks.
La Tomatina: Bunol, Spain
"The tomato battle is in honor of Saint Luis Beltran, the patron saint of Bunol. Residents and visitors take part in a tomato-throwing battle that decimates more than 88,000 pounds of tomatoes. This crazy event began with a serious aim as a symbolic protest against Franco. But the Tomatina is now celebrated as an amusing way to end the summer."
Mighty Mud Mania: Scottsdale, Arizona, USA
"Children's dreams really do come true in the City of Scottsdale. Children aged 1 to 13, get to participate in a mud race to end all mud races. During the running of the Mighty Mud Obstacle(泥坑) course, several mud pits strategically placed, provide wet and really dirty obstacles as kids compete for the fastest time in each heat. There are also mud puddle pools for the tiny tots, and a mini mud course for those six and younger. In addition, Mighty Mudway features water and mud games. There are also water slides, sandcastle buildings and fun for all ages. Moms and dads, remember to send your kids out with old clothes and shoes. And have no fear, Rural Metro Fire Department is on hand to offer plenty of water for the muddy children."
Canberra Sled Dog Classic: Canberra, Australian Capital Territory, Australia
Dog sledding is one of the fastest growing sports on the east coast of Australia. As there's no snow (the trail is earth and sand and is smooth and wide with a few hills and turns), the sleds have wheels instead of runners, but the excitement is the same.
【1】Which of the following means the summer is over?
A.Mighty Mud Mania.B.La Tomatina.
C.Canberra Sled Dog Classic.D.The Million Ringgit Charity Duck Race.
【2】What can you enjoy in all the four festivals mentioned?

【答案】
【1】B
【2】A
【3】C
【解析】
本文为一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了世界上精彩绝伦，又非比寻常的四个节日。
【1】
细节理解题。根据La Tomatina: Bunol, Spain这一小标题下最后一句But the Tomatina is now celebrated as an amusing way to end the summer.（但是 Tomatina现在被当作一种结束夏天的有趣方式来庆祝。）可知，现在Tomatina已经作为庆祝结束夏天结束的一种有趣方式了。这里的end the summer和题干中summer is over进行了替换。故此题选B。
【2】
推理判断题。根据文章Eric Schechter and his friends were brainstorming to find new ways of raising money for local charities when they came up with the idea of rubber duck races. 可知，第一个节日有橡胶鸭子赛跑活动。根据文章The tomato battle is in honor of Saint Luis Beltran可知，第二个节日有番茄大战。根据文章During the running of the Mighty Mud Obstacle(泥坑) course可知，第三个节日有泥浆赛跑。根据文章Dog sledding is one of the fastest growing sports on the east coast of Australia.可知第四个节日有狗拉雪橇活动。所以四个节日的共同特点就是有精彩的活动。故此题选A。
【3】
推理判断题。文章第一自然段We have selected a few of the more unusual, colorful festivals from around the world. You can choose anyone you like best!（我们从世界各地挑选了一些更不寻常、更丰富多彩的节日。你可以选择你最喜欢的节日!）是全文的主题句，结合全文内容，可知作者写这篇文章的目的就是介绍一些精彩绝伦，又非比寻常的节日。故此题选C。

With the graduation day approaching, memory are flooding back to me. I remember how unwillingly I was to enter the classroom. “If I have studied harder before, I would have gone to a better senior high school,” I said it to myself. However, I later realized I fell in love with a school.
The campus scenery is pleasant. The antique pavilion (亭子), where stands on a small hillside, impresses me most. Surrounded green trees, I can admire the beautiful sunrise and sunset. I often wander around the charming pond and see myself reflecting in its transparent water. Any pains I have are smoothed and float away. The kind teachers and easy-going classmates also warm my heart and cheer me up when I am in low spirits.
Every time I recall my unforgettable moments, I smile. We’ve all grew over these three years.

【题目】 The college schedule is very different from the traditional high school schedule. 【1】 In high school, you had to take the US History, which was offered every day at 10:00 a.m. In college, you’ll probably need to take a history class, but you could have 10 choices offered on different days and at different times.
【2】 For example, you will pick a course that will determine the types of classes you will specialize in. In high school, you have a set curriculum of classes you have to take across all subject areas. 【3】 During the first two years, you’ll take more general education classes. But during your junior and senior years, you’ll take fewer general education classes.
Another big difference you should be aware of is classes. Now, you’re in school from 7:30 a.m.-2:30 p.m., Monday through Friday. 【4】 In college, you might have a science class on Mondays and Fridays from 10:10-11:00 a.m. Perhaps you’ll have a Chinese class on Thursdays from 1:15-3:00 p.m.
【5】 If you go to a large university, your campus will be your home and might take up an entire town. You might see hundreds of students going out to bars every night. Many colleges are home both to academic and social clubs. In high school your stage is regional. In college, your stage is national-and sometimes global.
A.This will not be the case in college.
B.In college, think about your schedule as a pyramid.
C.Some things will appear similar, but many will be different.
D.Typically, there is a lot more flexibility with your college classes.
E.The differences will challenge your self-management as much as your abilities.
F.The atmosphere and social life in college are also different from those in high school.
G.The other cool thing is that you usually have more opportunities to explore your interests.

Finally，Dalia Sakas agreed to meet Matthew. Dalia is the director of music studies at a music school in New York City，a school for the visually impaired.

She did. Matthew has played in more than 200 clubs and concert halls around the world. His love of music has never been in doubt. Matthew’s latest album is called Now Hear This. One critic noted that it sounded like Matthew was playing with six hands.
