ANowadays, people in China are increasingly interested in celebrating foreign festivals, especially those western festivals.A survey conducted recently by showed that among the 18,222 people surveyed63.90% said celebrating Christmas is just another way of enjoying life, nothing serious while 17.85% surveyed considered the festival as a fashion act, showing they were not “out”. These two parts clearly express the general opinion of the young. 10.45% people involved said the celebration of a religious western festival with so much enthusiasm is absolutely unbelievable admire of foreign goodness. Only 7.80% of people consider Christmas as a kind of festival colonization(殖民).The arising of celebrating foreign festivals clearly has something to do with the advancement of China’s economy. In my point view, Christmas and other festivals celebrated in China have difference from the origin. They have lost their religious background and turned into a big occasion to have fun and enjoy life. Shop owners’ pockets are filled, the public’s hunger for happiness is filled, and that is enough. Foreign festivals in China are more like carnivals giving people pleasure and enjoyment.The crisis of traditional Chinese festivals that are losing their attraction may be linked to the culture tradition and background of the festivals. Most Chinese festival culture is related more or less to real life. “The country is based on its people while the people are relied on their food”.But the western culture shows much of romance. Some festivals have their religious background while others have much to do with culture and people. At this point, food seems to be too ordinary. Flowers and chocolates are more welcomed.Foreign festivals in China are celebrated for fun. They give people opportunities to relax and celebrate, to show appreciation and gratefulness. The acceptance of foreign festivals generally depends on the openness of the public, the familiarity with the western culture, and most importantly, on people’s economic situation.21．From the survey we know that among the people surveyed ______.A．many people are worried that traditional Chinese festivals will disappear soonB．most think little of celebrating foreign festivals.C．half think celebrating foreign festivals makes people not go out of fashionD．some think it a sign of being after foreign goodness to celebrate foreign festivals22．The writer thinks that foreign festivals celebrated in China ______.A．are the same as those celebrated in the WestB．have lost their religious backgroundC．can give more fun than traditional Chinese festivalsD．may reduce the hunger of public people23．What is the main difference between foreign festivals and traditional Chinese ones?A．Traditional Chinese festivals pay more attention to culture tradition.B．Foreign festivals attach more importance to food than Chinese ones.C．Foreign festivals are romantic while traditional Chinese ones are connected with reality.D．Chinese festivals have lost their attraction while foreign ones are in fashion.24．Which of the following may NOT be the reason why so many people accept foreign festivals?A．People can relax themselves.B．People can show their thanks to others.C．People have known more about the western culture.D．Foreign festivals can make shop owners’ pockets filled.BFor a long time, a boy wondered why his next-desk-pal was always the first in the class, whereas he could only rank the 21st.At home, he asked his mom: “Am I more stupid than other kids? How can I always fall behind? I just can’t come up with an answer.”Mom was aware that her son’s self-respect had been damaged by the ranking system, but she didn’t know what to say to help.She intended to say that intelligence differs and that yes, her son’s friend really was the smarter boy. But that would so upset her son. Thank goodness she kept herself from saying it.Her son and his friend went on to high school that year, but although he tried as hard as he could, her son’s friend still outdid him. But she was proud of her boy for his hard work, sincerely proud. It was around this time that she decided to take him on a trip to the seaside. On the trip, she at last found an answer for him.Today her son no longer cares about rankings. He doesn’t have to, for he himself is now the top of the class at the top national university he attends. After university his teachers and peers fully expect him to have a bright future..Invited to speak to his old high school, he mentioned a valuable childhood experience. It concerned that holiday his mother had prepared for them: “Once, on a trip to the sea, my mother and I were lying on the beach. She pointed to the sea and said to me: Do you see the seabirds fighting for food out there? When a wave comes near, the little birds rise quickly. The clumsy(笨拙的）seagulls are far slower and have to struggle to get away from the wave. But these clumsy birds prove to have the biggest, strongest wings, which allow the bird to travel the furthest. When the season changes, they leave for foreign shores, leaving the little birds behind. Son, I have a feeling that you are one of those seagulls. ”25. The story mainly conveys the message that .A. competition between students is good for their development.B. Ranking system does damage to students’ self-respectC. only struggling can help you succeedD. parents should build up children’s self-respect26. From the 2nd paragraph, we can see that .A. the son was more stupid than other kidsB. the mother saw the bad effects of the ranking systemC. the mother knew her son was weak in his studyD. the mother felt sorry for her son’s bad behavior.27. We can infer from the passage that .A. the son knew intelligence didn’t mean everythingB. the son did not rely on his mother for helpC. the son would forget his rankings soon after leaving high schoolD. the mother was careful to protect her son’s self-respect28. Which of the following has the similar meaning with the underlined word “outdid” ?A. did better thanB. was equal toC. played tricks onD. worked harder thanCAs computers become all the more popular in China, Chinese people are increasingly relying on computer keyboards to input Chinese characters(汉字）. But if they use the computer too much, they may end up forgetting the exact strokes（笔画）of each Chinese character when writing on paper. Experts suggest people, especially students, write by hand more.Do you write by hand more or type more? In Beijing, students start using a computer as early as primary school. And computer dependence is more wide-spread among university students. Almost all their writings are typed on a computer.All the students interviewed say they usually use a computer.It’s faster and easier to correct if using a computer. And that’s why computers are being used more and more often to modern education. But when people are taking stock in computers increasingly, problems appear.“When I’m writing with a pen, I find I often can’t remember how to write a character, though I feel I’m familiar with it.”“I’m not in the mood to write when faced with a pen and paper.”Many students don’t feel this is something to worry about. Now that it’s more convenient and efficient to write on a computer, why bother to handwrite?Many educators think differently. Shi Liwei, the headmaster of a famous primary school in the capital said “Chinese characters enjo y both practical and aesthetic(审美的) value. But those characters typed with computer keyboards only maintain their practical value. All the artistic beauty of the characters is lost. And handwriting contains the writer’s emotion. Through one’s handwriting, people can get to know one’s thinking and personality. Beautiful writing will give people a better first impression of them.”To encourage students to handwrite more, many primary schools in Beijing have made writing classes compulsory(必修的)and in universities, some professors are asking students to turn in their homework and essays written by hand.29. Which of the following can BEST serve as the title of the passage?A. To Type or To Hand WriteB. The Importance of Handwriting and TypingC. Writing By Computer Will Replace Writing By HandD. Practical and Aesthetic Value of Chinese Characters30. The students interviewed prefer to write using a computer mainly because .A. they can correct the mistakes they make quickly and convenientlyB. they are usually asked to e-mail their homework and essaysC. they find it not easy to remember how to write a characterD. computers have become a trend and fashion in China31. The underlined expression “taking stock in” in the fourth paragraph probably means .A. getting bored withB. getting dependent onC. becoming crazy aboutD. looking forward to32. We can draw the conclusion from the passage that .A. more and more students will give up writing on a computerB. writing by hand will give way to typing by computer one dayC. more and more students will pay attention to handwritingD. the typed article better expresses one’s emotion and qualityDRead the advertisements, and then choose the best answers.Driver Wanted1.
