  Chinese culture has many, many festivals commemorating(紀(jì)念)some unusual events. Dragon Boat Festival is one such festival. The main thing to do on this day is to eat zongzi, the glutinous rice(糯米)dumpling.

  In some places, people race boats that are colorfully decorated(裝飾)with dragon designs, but I have never seen such a race. I have, however, eaten lots of zongzi. You can buy them or eat homemade ones. They are commonly eaten as a snack food. Tile rice may be white, and it may have some red bean paste(紅豆沙)inside. Sometimes the rice is brown from a sauce and inside is a small chunk(塊)of ham. In any case, each one is wrapped in reed leaves and steamed, I suppose, for a long time. At first, I thought they were rather tasteless, but I have developed a taste for them now, and I like to eat them, though once a year is enough.

  The origin of the zongzi is as strange as the food itself. There was a Chinese poet and official (Chinese officials in old times were always poets)named Qu Yuan. He was an official in the kingdom of Chu around 340~278 BC. China has a tradition of ministers(大臣)who give advice to the king, and Qu Yuan was such a minister. Qu Yuan advised the king of Chu to prepare for war because the state of Qin was ready to devour(吞滅)his state. But the king thought he was safe since the emperor of Qin seemed to be more interested in other, weaker states. But, finally, Qin did attack Chu, and the Chu kingdom was defeated.

  Qu Yuan was so sad about this that he killed himself by jumping into the Miluo River. His countrymen, on learning of this, rushed to the scene in small boats and tried to find his body. They failed to find it, so they made the dumplings wrapped in reed leaves and threw them into the river so the fish would eat the dumplings and not Qu Yuan's body. That day was the fifth day of the fifth lunar(陰歷)month. Later, it became a ritual(儀式)to eat the zongzi and to hold dragon boat races on that day every year.

(1) What do people mainly do on Dragon Boat Festival?

[  ]

A.They eat zongzi.

B.They all go boating.

C.They swim in the river.

D.They all buy something to throw into the river.

(2) According to the text, which of the following is TRUE?

[  ]

A.The author becomes so interested in zongzi that he eats them once a month.

B.The tale of how the zongzi came into being is even stranger than the food itself.

C.The king of Chu didn't like Qu Yuan's advice and killed him.

D.Dragon Boat Festival is celebrated in commemoration of the death of Qu Yuan.

(3) Qu Yuan killed himself because ________

[  ]

A.the king of Chu didn't take his advice, and as a result the Chu kingdom was defeated by Qin

B.the Chu kingdom was the weakest state

C.he couldn't live a good life

D.he wanted to show his bravery in face of danger

(4) What is the purpose of this text?

[  ]

A.To tell the readers about different kinds of zongzi.

B.To give information about the war in old times.

C.To tell the readers about the zongzi, as well as the origin of Dragon Boat Festival.

D.To recommend that the readers eat more zongzi.

以下是關(guān)于中國傳統(tǒng)節(jié)日的起源介紹:

A. One day, Emperor Mingdi had a dream about a gold man in his palace. When he was about to ask the mysterious figure who he was, the gold man suddenly rose to the sky and disappeared in the west. The next day, Emperor Mingdi sent a scholar to India to locate Buddhist scriptures and ordered that a temple be built to house a statue of Buddha and serve as a repository for the scriptures. So Emperor Mingdi ordered his subjects to display lighted lanterns during what was to become the Festival.

B. The earth once had ten suns circling it. However, one day all ten suns appeared together. The heat was so scorching and unbearable. A strong archer named Hou Yi came out and succeeded in shooting down nine suns. He was later made the emperor but after that he became a tyrant. In order to save the people from his tyranny, his wife Chang-E stole the elixir and consumed it herself and floated to the moon taking along her pet rabbit with her.

C. Qu Yuan was a minister in the kingdom of Chu.He was upright , loyal and highly esteemed for his wise counsel that had brought peace and prosperity to the kingdom. Realizing that the country was now in the hands of evil and corrupt officials, Qu Yuan clasped a large stone and leaped into the Mi Lo river on the fifth day of the fifth moon. The people of Chu, mourning the death of Qu Yuan, threw rice into the river to feed his hungry ghost on this day every year.

D. One of the most famous legends is Nian, an extremely cruel and ferocious beast that the ancients believed would devour people on New Year's Eve. To keep Nian away, red-paper couplets are pasted on doors, torches are lit, and firecrackers are set off throughout the night, because Nian is said to fear the color red, the light of fire, and loud noises. Early the next morning, as feelings of triumph and renewal fill the air at successfully keeping Nian away for another year, the most popular greeting heard is "gong xi fa cai", or "congratulations."

E. On this evening, two lovers will meet on a bridge of magpies across the Milky Way. Chinese grannies will remind children that they would not be able to see any magpies on that evening because all the magpies have left to form a bridge in the heavens with their wings.

F. The Festival itself was created by the Tang Emperor Xuanzong in 732. It is said that because the wealthy held too many expensive, elaborate ancestor-worshipping ceremonies, in a needed effort to lower this expense, Emperor Xuanzong declared that respects could be formally paid at ancestor's graves only on the day.

     In 1901, H. G. Wells, an English writer, wrote a book describing a trip to the moon. When the Explorers
(探險(xiǎn)者) landed on the moon, they discovered that the moon was full of underground cities. They expressed

systems, called"Alice Cities," The designers imagine using surface space for pubic parks and using underground space for flats, offices, shopping, and so on. A solar dome (太陽能穹頂) would cover the whole city.
     Supporters of underground development say that building down rather than building up is a good way to use
the earth's space. The surface, they say, can be used for farms, parks, gardens, and wilderness, H. G. Wells
"moon people" would agree. Would you?
