24、Interesting Festivals in the World
Throwing tomatoes—Spain Spain takes “tomato fights” to a whole new level. But the tomatoes are being thrown, not eaten. The festival takes place on the last Wednesday in August. Trucks carry tomatoes into the square. People rush to the tomatoes and throw them into the crowd. |
Rolling cheese—England This festival is celebrated on the last Monday in May. It takes place on Cooper’s Hill. A large wheel of cheese is rolled down Cooper’s Hill. The festival is actually a race where people run down the hill after the rolling cheese. The first person to cross the finishing line at the bottom of the hill wins the cheese. |
Burning man—The United States The Burning Man Festival lasts a week, and it is from the Monday before Labor Day to Labor Day (which falls on the first Monday in September in America). The festival takes place in the Black Rock Desert. The best part of the festival is the burning of a large sculpture of a man. |
Throwing water—Thailand The Songkran Festival is the celebration of the New Year in Thailand. Rather than a single day, Thailand celebrates the New Year from April 13th to April 15th. Thai people run after each other, throwing water, Songkran is one of the most important reasons why foreigners travel to the beautiful land. |
【1】Where will you probably go to enjoy one of the festivals above in May?

25、So, it’s exam time again. Have you done the necessary work to get good marks? Sleeping with the textbook under the pillow doesn’t work. The best way is to space your practice out, rather than cram(塞满)it all together. Just as a scientist called Tom Stafford advises, if you organize five hours of study into one hour a day, you’ll remember more than if you study for five hours on one day.
Don’t depend on memory alone. Get pens and paper, and start working! Students who can test themselves earlier will be better at retrieving(检索)the knowledge from the memory and keep it in the long run. John Dunlosky, a professor in the US, suggests that “you start by reading a textbook with your favourite pens and colours, and then write down the important ideas on small cards. While doing so, you actually try to test yourselves on them.”
Good revision should give you confidence, but if you are still worried, it’s not harmful to follow some special customs. In Japan, it seems to be a tradition for students to eat Katsudon before a test. This is a bowl of rice with egg and pork pieces. The name of the dish makes people think of the word “katsu”, meaning “winning”. For some students in South Korea, the key to success is not washing their hair before an exam, because they believe they could wash all the knowledge out of their heads. And in different parts of the world, there are always those who believe in their “lucky underwear”.
The bottom line is that you need to study, eat a good meal, sleep well on the eve of the test, and believe that your efforts will pay off.
Good luck in your exam!
【1】When you “space your practice out”, you________.
A.study for at least 5 hours on one day
B.sleep with your textbook under the pillow
C.organize 5 hours of study into one hour a day
D.take your textbook out from the pillow
【2】Which of the following is TRUE according to Paragraph 3?
A.The word “Katsudon” sounds similar to “winning” in South Korea.
B.In some countries, washing hair brings bad luck after having exams.
C.Some people might wear special underwear when there is a test.
D.Students in Japan will eat noodles with egg and pork pieces before a test.
【3】What does the writer advise students to do before tests?
A.Prepare your exams well and be confident.
B.Choose your favourite pens and stay up late.
C.Follow some customs and just enjoy yourselves.
D.Sleep with the textbook under your pillow.
