There are many different festivals in the world. 1. People can do many kinds of things when the festivals come.
The Spring Festival is the most important festival in China. On that day, Chinese people often perform lion and dragon dances. And they also eat dumplings with their family members while watching Spring Gala. The second Sunday in May is Mother’s Day. 2. We often express our love to our mothers by giving flowers or other presents. April Fool’s Day is a funny festival, because you can play some small tricks on your friends and they can’t be angry with you. Anyway, June 1st is a dream day for all the kids around the world because it’s Children’s Day. On that day, they can get their favorite toys and have fun with their friends.
3.在西方,一些重要的节日和它也很相似。 Thanksgiving is one of them. It’s an idea of giving thanks by having a big meal at home with the family. The main dish of this meal is always the turkey! Many people prefer Halloween. They make themselves look scary by dressing up as ghosts or black cats. The festival might not fit old people. It’s kind of terrible! However, more people celebrate Christmas. They often eat together and give presents to each other. 4.That’s because the true spirit of Christmas is to share love and joy with people around us!

24、Almost every Chinese person can recite the two lines of the famous poem,“Every grain on the plate comes from hard work(谁知盘中餐,粒粒皆辛苦).” But sadly,many of us don’t actually get the real meaning of these lines: Don't waste food.
A CCTV program,News One Plus One,reported that the food Chinese people throw away every year is enough to feed 200 million people for a year.
Do we have too much food? Of course not.According to the UN World Food Program,there were 925 million hungry people around the world in 2010,especially in developing countries.Six million children die of hunger every year.
Chinese people are well known for being hospitable(好客的) and generous.Many even feel that they lose face if their guests have eaten all the food on the table.
Luckily,a number of people have realized the importance of saving food.Last November,Li Hong,a waitress in a restaurant in Nanjing,got fired (解雇)because she took some leftover food home for her son.Many people stood by her side and criticized(批评) the waste of food.
What should we do in our daily lives to waste less food? Here are some tips:
1.Do not order too much in a restaurant.Only order as much as you want to eat.If you cannot eat all the food you ordered,take the rest of it home.
2.Don't be too picky(挑剔的) about food.Some food may not taste great,but your body needs it.
3.Keep an eye on what food you have at home.Don't buy too much,especially for vegetables and fruit.

B. Many Chinese people are kindhearted and ready to help the weak.
C. Chinese people feel that they lose face if their guests eat all the food.
D. Many Chinese people don't agree with the behavior of wasting food.

26、It was the first day of class. Two of Tara’s new ESL (English as a Second Language) classmates wanted to know where she was from. They were both from Korea. Because Tara looked like Korean, one of the women asked Tara, in English, if she was from Korea. Tara replied, “No, I’m not.” Then the women took turns asking Tara if she was from Japan, or Thailand, or China. To each question, Tara answered them a simple “no”. Laughing, one woman said to the other, “She’s not from anywhere!” The two went to their desks, talking to each other in Korean.
The next day, the teacher divided the students into groups of four. The students in each group asked introductory questions of each other. A student in Tara’s group asked her, “Where are you from?” Tara answered that she was from Korea. The two women who had questioned Tara the day before were sitting only a few feet away. Both of them heard Tara’s answer.
“Aha!” they both exclaimed, “You are from Korea!” Tara smiled and said yes. Then she apologized (道歉) to both of them for lying the day before. She told them that she had not wanted to get into a Korean conversation with them. It had been her experience that many ESL students continued to speak their mother languages in ESL class, and Tara had not come to ESL class to practice her Korean. In her opinion, ESL students should try to speak English only.
“I agree.” said Rose.
“You’re 100 percent right.” agreed Jenny, “Rose and I must stop speaking Korean to each other. Right, Rose?” Rose nodded, and then said something in Korean. All three women laughed.
The next half a year, Tara became friendly with both women, although she never spoke a word of Korean to them during class or break.
【1】Where does Tara come from?
A. China. B. Thailand. C. Japan. D. Korea.

A. cried in fear B. shouted in surprise

A. Tara said she was from Korea because she knew the student in her group was also from Korea.
B. Tara said she was from Korea because she wanted to make friends with the student in her group.
C. Tara said she wasn’t from Korea because she didn’t like Rose and Jenny and wasn’t willing to speak Korean with them.
D. Tara said she wasn’t from Korea because she didn’t want Rose and Jenny to speak Korean with her during the class.
