【解析】

本文是一篇說明文。印度有很多節(jié)日，有的地方幾乎天天都有節(jié)日。印度的節(jié)日主要體現(xiàn)在三個方面：宗教、文化與旅游，因為節(jié)日多，印度每年吸引眾多的游客前來參觀。

【1】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段中的"All these are done to keep the festive spirit alive in modern times"可知，印度人慶祝節(jié)日是為了將節(jié)日的傳統(tǒng)繼承下來。故選C。

【2】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中的"There is a wide variety of festivals in India because of the presence（存在）of many different religions, beliefs，ideas and cultures"可知，印度有各種各樣的節(jié)日是因為這里的宗教信仰、觀念以及文化種類多。故選D。

【3】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中的"Cultural festivals in India are organized to provide a platform for different forms of music, dance and other art"可知，人們用唱歌、跳舞以及其他藝術(shù)形式來慶祝文化節(jié)日。故選A。

【4】推理判斷題。根據(jù)全文內(nèi)容可知，本文主要介紹了印度的節(jié)日,因此最有可能出現(xiàn)在文化版塊。故選B。

文章出處類推理判斷題。做這類題重要的是要抓住文章的內(nèi)容或結(jié)構(gòu)特征，這是推理判斷的前提和基礎(chǔ)。如報紙，前面會出現(xiàn)日期、地點、通訊社名稱等；廣告，其格式特殊，容易辨認；產(chǎn)品說明、器皿設(shè)備的使用說明有產(chǎn)品名稱或操作方法，而藥品的服用說明會告知服用時間、次數(shù)和藥量等。如第四小題，文章主要介紹了印度的節(jié)日,因此最有可能出現(xiàn)在文化版塊。故選B。
