15、open for what teachers say in class.五、阅读理解AIf you land in India anytime in late February or March, its wise to check the dates of the annual Holi Festival and bring a spare set of clothes. Thats because for a few days in spring, people crowd the streets and pelt(向投掷) anyone walking by with brightly-
16、colored powder to celebrate the arrival of spring and the end of evil. Its hard to avoid the fun and the paint, unless you stay inside or look angry enough to discourage the custom.“Watch out, madam!” said my taxi driver in Amritsar as we drove through a crowd of young people pelting each other with
17、 powder. “The colors never come out of your clothes,” he said. “And you might be having purple hair for many days.” I did a quick check. I was wearing black, a color rarely seen in India. It is usually connected with the lowest social classes, and can be viewed as unlucky. I was happy for my clothes
18、 to be painted in colors.“I have some powder I bought for my children. You can have some gladly, to join in our customs,” he encouraged me. Holding what the driver handed me as my weapon of choice, I walked into the Holi smoke. At first people politely avoided foreigners. But then a girl in a sari(莎
19、丽) ran up smiling and put paint on my face. I returned the favor with a handful of pink. With its brilliant clothes, exotic flowers, trucks covered with lights and brightly painted pictures of gods, India is truly one of the most colorful places on the planet!1.Which of the following sentences about
20、 the Holi Festival is correct?A.It falls on the same day each year and is celebrated for a few days.B.It is a playful cultural event to throw colors at friends or strangers.C.It has many purposes, celebrating the end of spring in particular.D.It is fun for local people but a little unacceptable for

23、e most popular martial arts (武术)today came from Asia, especially China. Some Chinese fighting styles were invented more than 3,000 years ago. Many martial arts were invented because people needed to defend themselves or protect others. Nowadays, people learn martial arts as a way of keeping fit or a
24、s a competitive sport, but they are still very useful for self-defence.Martial arts are often referred to as being either soft or hard. These terms imply a way of dealing with your opponents (对手的)force. Soft martial arts, such as tai chi, teach you to use your opponents own force to defend yourself.
25、 Soft styles use movements and timing to avoid, deflect and redirect the opponents attacks. These martial arts are soft for the defender but not for the attacker! On the other hand, hard styles, such as kung fu, teach you to defend yourself by using force. Techniques involve blocks, postures and pow
26、erful punches and kicks. Hard martial art techniques will be more effective(有效的)if you are more skillful, more powerful and faster than your opponent.Perhaps one of the best known Japanese martial arts today is karate. But do you know that it came from Fujian Province?A community of Chinese migrants
27、(移民)from Fujian settled in what was then the kingdom of Okinawa. The Chinese migrants used to gather in a park to enjoy cultural activitiesone of which was kung fu. This soon caught the attention of local youths, who started learning kung fu from their Chinese neighbours.In fact, Chinese influence o
28、n martial arts was not only kung fu. The very first Korean military training manual was based on a Chinese version. During the Japanese invasion (侵略)of Korea in the 16th century, the Korean army needed an effective way to train a large number of soldiers. They used a training methodology from a Chin
29、ese military manual called Ji Xiao Xin Shu, written by the famous Chinese general, Qi Jiguang, who had defeated the Japanese army himself.4.From the passage we can learn people have been using martial arts .A.to defend othersB.to protect themselvesC.to keep fitD.as a competitive sport5.What does the

31、e Japan.D.To enlarge the area of Korea.CAlmost all cultures celebrate the end of one year and the beginning of another in some way. Different cultures celebrate the beginning of a new year in different ways, and at different times on the calendar.In Western countries, people usually celebrate New Ye
32、ar at midnight on December 31st or January 1st. People may go to parties, sometimes dressed in formal clothes, and they may drink champagne(香槟酒) at midnight. During the first minutes of the new year, people cheer and wish each other happiness for the year ahead. But some cultures prefer to celebrate
33、 the new year by waking up early to watch the sunrise. They welcome the new year with the first light of the sunrise.Many cultures also do special things to get rid of bad luck at the beginning of a new year. For example, in Ecuador, families make a big doll from old clothes. The doll is filled with
34、 old newspapers and firecrackers. At midnight, these dolls are burned to show the bad things from the past year are gone and the new year can start afresh(重新).Other common traditions to keep away bad luck in a new year include throwing things into rivers or the ocean, or saying special things on the
35、 first day of the new year. Other New Year traditions are followed to bring good luck in the new year. One widespread Spanish tradition for good luck is to eat grapes on New Years Day. The more grapes a person eats, the more good luck the person will have in the new year. In France, people eat panca
36、kes for good luck at New Year. In the United States, some people eat black-eyed peas for good luck, but to get good luck for a whole year you have to eat 365 of them!8.Which of the following can be the best title of the text?

40、 (象征) by its traditional foodroast turkey. But turkey is certainly not from Turkey. In fact, its English name is based on one big mistake. We could say it is a case of mistaken identity. The word “Turkey” has meant “the land of the Turks” since ancient times. In the mid-1500s, the word “turkey” was
41、first used to refer to the bird in the English language.The misunderstanding over the word happened because of two similar-looking kinds of birds. There is an African bird called the guinea fowl(珍珠鸡). It has dark feathers with white spots and a patch of brown on the back of its neck. Traders brought
42、 the guinea fowl to Europe through North Africa. This foreign bird came to Europe through Turkish lands. So, the English thought of the bird as a “Turkish chicken”.When Europeans came to North America, they saw a bird that looked like the guinea fowl. This bird was native to the North American conti
43、nent. But they thought that it was the guinea fowl,which at that time was called the “turkey cock”,so they gave it the same name. Hundreds of years later, we continue to call this North American bird “turkey”, even though it has no connection at all with the country Turkey, or even with Europe. But
44、English is not the only language with interesting names for this North American bird.The Turks call the turkey “hindi”, the Turkish name for India. The reference(涉及)to India probably comes from the old wrong idea that the New World was in Eastern Asia. The French call it “dinde”, a name that also co
45、nnects the bird with India. “Dinde” means “from India” in the French language. “Turkey” has similar names in several other languages.12.What can we know from Paragraph 1?A.The word “turkey” appeared in modern times.B.Turkeys English name is based on correct identity.C.Americans like eating turkey on
46、 Thanksgiving Day.D.Both Turkey and turkey have similar meanings in English.13.Where does the guinea fowl come from?A.Europe.B.Africa. C.America. D.Asia.14.What does the underlined word“it” in the last paragraph refer to?A.Eastern Asia.B.The French language.C.The New World.D.The bird turkey.15.What can be the best title for the text?A.How did Thanksgivin
