    题目列表(包括答案和解析)


    A rabbit is running into his hole. You may ask, “What happened?”
    Well, when a rabbit sees something dangerous, it runs away. Its tail moves up and down as it runs. When other rabbits see this tail moving up and down, they ran, too. They know there is danger. The rabbit has told them something without making a sound. It has given them a signal.
    Many other animals use this kind of language. When a bee finds some food, it goes back to his home. It can’t tell the other bees where the food is by speaking to them, but it does dance in the air. This tells the bees where the food is.
    But animals say things by making sounds. A dog barks, for examples, when a stranger comes near. A cat purrs(发出呼噜呼噜的声音) when pleased. Some birds make several different sounds, each with its own meaning.
    But human beings have something that no animals have---- a large number of words about things, actions, feelings or ideas. We are able to give each other information to tell or inform other people what is in our mind or how we feel. By writing words down we can remind ourselves of the things that have happened, or send messages to people far away. No animals can do this. No animals has the wonderful power of language.
    No one knows how man learned to make words. Somehow he learned to make them. As centuries went by, he made more and more new words. This is what we mean by language.
    People in different countries made different kinds of words. Today there are about fifteen hundred different languages in the world. A very large English dictionary, for examples, contains four or five hundred thousand words. But we don’t know all these. The words we know are called vocabulary. We should try to make our vocabulary larger. Read as many books as possible. When we met a new word, look it up in the dictionary. A dictionary is the most useful book.

    　　For Chinese, it’s time for dragon boat racing and Zongzi．But in South Korea, wrestling and swing play are the highlights．However, both events go by the same name －the Dragon Boat Festival．It falls on May 5th of the lunar calendar．

    　　One festival, two cultures．Does one nation have the right to call it its own? It has been reported that South Korea will ask the United Nations Educational, Social and Cultural Organization (UNESCO联合国教科文组织) to make the celebration its cultural heritage (文化遗产)．If successful, people from other countries may see the Dragon Boat Festival as a Korean creation．

    　　As the birthplace of the yearly event more than 2,000 years ago, China is not happy with the situation (情况)．“It would be a shame if another country successfully made a traditional Chinese festival part of its own cultural heritage before China,” said Zhou Heping, deputy cultural minister．The Ministry of Culture is even thinking of making its own application (申请) to UNESCO, covering all traditional Chinese festivals, including the Dragon Boat event．

    　　“I don’t like some of the food eaten at the festival, but I am shocked by South Korea’s move,” said Jin Yutong, a Senior One student．“We should protect the cultural heritage left by our ancestors (祖先)．”

    　　It is thought that the festival is held in memory of the great poet Qu Yuan (340－278BC), who lived in the State of Chu during the Warring States Period．．

    Qu was known to be a patriot (爱国者) and admired by ordinary people．He is said to have jumped into Miluo River, because he had lost hope in his country’s future．When people heard about Qu’s death, they sailed up and down the river searching for his body．They also beat the drums to fright away fish and threw Zongzi into water．These were supposed to stop the fish from touching Qu．Dragon boat racing is said to have come from the search for the poet’s body．

    　　Over the years, the Dragon Boat Festival has spread throughout the world．．

    In Japan and Vietnam, as well as South Korea, the festival has mixed together with, and become part of the local culture．

    　　With this in mind, some experts say that it is meaningless to argue (争论) about which country the festival belongs．“Everyone can say that it came from China,” said Long Haiqing, an expert from Hunan Province．“But if the whole nation can protect the culture heritage together, they will all benefit．”

    (1)

    Which of the following country is NOT mentioned about the Dragon Boat Festival spreading?

    [　　]

    A．

    Japan

    B．

    Vietnam

    C．

    South Korea

    D．

    the United States

    (2)

    From the passage, we can see Chinese people’s attitude (态度) toward the Dragon Boat Festival is that ________．

    [　　]

    A．

    they do not like it

    B．

    they want to protect it because it is their cultural heritage

    C．

    it is a shame to protect it

    D．

    they won’t agree South Korea takes it as its own festival

    (3)

    Racing boats to celebrate the festival comes from the story that ________．

    [　　]

    A．

    people searched for Qu Yuan’s body by boat

    B．

    people searched for Qu Yuan’s boat

    C．

    Qu Yuan enjoyed boating

    D．

    Qu Yuan liked building boats

    (4)

    What can we infer (推断) from the last two paragraphs?

    [　　]

    A．

    The festival is celebrated in the same way all over the world．

    B．

    It matters a lot whose cultural heritage the festival is．

    C．

    It is good for the Chinese people to protect the cultural heritage．

    D．

    South Korea does not recognize that the festival is from China．
