21、 “Happy New Year!” Everyone will greet each other with these words as they meet over the next couple of weeks. But it wasn’t always January l that marked the New Year.
At least 4,000 years ago the ancient Egyptians and Babylonians marked the changing of the year. In Egypt, the year started when the Nile River flooded, enriching farmers’ fields with silt. This happened at the end of September.
The Babylonians held a festival in spring, on March 23, to kick off the next farming cycle. The Babylonian celebration lasted for 11 days.
The date January l was picked by the Roman Emperor Julius Caesar as the change of the year when he established his own calendar in 46 BC. The month of January was named after the Roman god, Janus. He is pictured with two heads. One head looks forward and the other back. They represent a break between the old and new. That new calendar was in time with the sun and it has been used until the present day.
Around the world, different cultures have their own traditions for welcoming the New Year. The Japanese hang straw rope across the front of their houses to keep out evil spirits and bring happiness and good luck. They also have a good laugh as the year begins to get things started on a lucky note.
In India people like to wear pink, red ,purple and white flowers. Women favor yellow, the color of spring. Hindus also leave shrines next to their beds so they see beautiful objects when they wake up.
Canadians enjoy the traditional polar bear swim. People of all ages put on their swimsuits and jump into frozen lakes.

23、A cafeteria manager is changing her students’ lives for the better at an elementary school in Virginia Beach, Va.,writing uplifting messages on bananas being offered in the school cafeteria.
Stacey Truman has held the position at Kingston Elementary School for nine years, but recently decided to start making the “talking bananas,” as the kids call them, to encourage the students. “I do it for my kids at home, so why not bring it here and do it for them because they are like my kids.’’ Truman said. The bananas have several motivational messages like “Never give up” “You are wise!” and “Keep trying” among others.
“Most of the messages I came up with myself because I would just think about what you would tell a kid or what you would want to hear yourself.” Truman said. Truman’s sweet gesture did not just have a powerful influence on the children, however. School principal Sharon Shewbridge saw the bananas and posted a picture of the fruit on Twitter, where it started receiving wide attention.
“Truman feels a bit shy about all the attention,” Shewbridge said. “She just wanted to be anonymous. But I think this is so simple and amazing—and it really does good to kids.”
“It's simple but these words can help them be more courageous and realize that they are good enough,”
Shewbridge added. “I hope that other schools see it's an easy way to get a kind message to kids.”
【1】Where are the messages on bananas mainly from?
A．They are copied from a website.
B．They are created by Truman.
C．They are collected from students.

A．Make money.
B．Attract attention.

24、The sparkling drink (气泡酒), Champagne, which we’ve all come to adore has an interesting backstory. Back in the 1690s, wine growers in France were trying their best to develop a new version of wine that would rival Burgundy wines, which are considered to be the best money can buy. The pioneer leading this project was Dom Pierre Pérignon, who was a French monk.
However, these efforts kept failing. It was all down to the fermentation (发酵) process being stopped because of cold winters in the region. But then something magical happened. When springtime rolled around, the yeast (酵母) became active again. The delayed fermentation process caused carbon dioxide to be released in the bottles that the wine had been stored in.
The result? You guessed right: champagne!
However, in recent years, some have argued that an Englishman was actually the first to invent sparkling wine, which, they claimed, happened around 30 years earlier. A scientist named Christopher Merrett was apparently experimenting with different ideas, one of which involved adding sugar to wine. The debate continues, although we recommend you avoid saying this to any French people, especially if you are a guest in their house!
Today, the Champagne regions in France consist of over 34,000 hectares given to vineyards (葡萄园). It produces 300 million bottles of sparkling wine every single year. Interestingly enough, many argue that three grape varieties are used in the Champagne region. However, the truth is that there are actually seven varieties that can be used. The area is home to over 250 Champagne houses directing the industry. The industry directly employs around 30,000 people and had an annual global market size of nearly $6 billion U.S. dollars in 2021.
【1】What does the underlined word “rival” in paragraph 1 mean?
A．Be as good as.
B．Be as interesting as.
C．Be an addiction to.
D．Be an attachment to.
【2】What can be inferred about the French version of the invention of Champagne?
A．It ended up as a failure.
B．It was a complete accident.
C．It was contributed to by the cold weather.
D．It caused conflict among the French people.
【3】What is a suggestion of the author?
A．Not giving up despite disappointing failures.
B．Not ignoring different ideas when doing experiments.
C．Not arguing with an Englishman about the origin of Champagne.
D．Not mentioning Merrett as the inventor of sparkling wine to a Frenchman.
【4】What’s the last paragraph mainly about?
A．The huge French Champagne industry.
B．A breakthrough of the Champagne houses.
C．An argument over the origin of Champagne.
