If you ever visit an English village,make sure to look out for morris dancing. Undoubtedly one of the strangest traditions of English culture,morris dancing is a form of folk dancing that dates back to the15th century.If you ever get the opportunely,you really have to see it.
Men and women wearing old-fashioned,shabby clothing dance in the streets of towns and villages across the country during the holiday periods.Women wear long, frilly(有褶皱边的)skirts and men wear short trousers with bells attached to them. They dance to traditional folk music which is often played on traditional musical instruments.
Some groups carry heavy black sticks which they beat against each other while they dance.Other groups wave handkerchiefs in the air while they perform.The dances are usually performed near a pub so that when it’s over,the dancers and audience can sing some traditional folk songs over a pint of beer.The celebrations will often continue long into the night,by which point most people are too drunk to think about performing again.
Morris dancing is a great English tradition but it’s facing a big crisis.As the years go by,fewer and fewer young people are joining morris dancing groups.
The dancers are getting older and older and eventually,if nothing is done to change this trends,the tradition will die out within the next few decades.
If you’ve ever had the fortune to see morris dancing,you may understand why teenagers aren’t rushing to sign up.Putting it to the point,it’s not exactly the coolest thing for an18-year-old to be doing.Why dress up in bells and funny costumes when you could be going clubbing?Or playing sport?Or doing anything else?
However,it would be a great shame to lose such a fun and lively part of England’s history and culture.It’s important to look after some traditions and customs especially when it’s something as harmless and happy as morris dancing.So here’s a toast to the next generation of would-be morris dancers!Let’s hope they don’t leave it too late.
25.What is the passage mainly about?
A.The origins of morris dancing
B.The popularity of morris dancing
C.The protection of morris dancing
D.The introduction of morris dancing

27.What is the present situation of morris dancing?
A.It is losing appeal among young people
B.It is keeping pace with people’s demand
C.It is witnessing great changes in history
D.It is being criticized by modern people
28.What does the author think about morris dancing?
