21、December is a “big deal” in Sweden and Finland not only because of Christmas, but because Saint Lucia’s Day is on Dec.13. Starting in kindergarten and continuing all throughout high school, on this day one lucky girl is selected to be “Saint Lucia”. For many girls, this is a big deal, though I personally really fear being picked and much prefer being one of Lucia’s handmaids (侍女).
It is not certain how the Saint Lucia tradition found its way to Sweden, and then also to Finland. The legend of Saint Lucia is known in most European countries, and has its roots in Italy. It is thought that during a time when the rulers of the land did not approve of Christianity (基督教), a woman named Lucia decided to try and spread the word of God and help the poor. Lucia was put on trial, and when she refused to give up her belief, she was sentenced to being burned. But when the guards tried to light the fire, it would not light. Unfortunately, this did not save Lucia, who at last was killed by a knife.
No one knows exactly how this legend has changed into the unique Swedish tradition today, but there are certainly some elements that can be recognized. Saint Lucia, a girl dressed in a long white dress with a crown of candles in her hair, brings light and good spirit to everybody, lightening up the cold December weather.
Both in Sweden and Finland, Saint Lucia is a nationally celebrated tradition. The people of the city or town can then vote for their favorite girl out of several candidates, and the winner is crowned on December 13th together with her entourage (随从). This year, 18-year-old high school student Elin Anderson was crowned Lucia, and following her coronation (加冕礼) she will appear at around 80 different events over the next month in her role as “a bringer of light”.
【1】Which of the following is TRUE about the Saint Lucia’s Day?
A．It originated from an Asian country.
B．It is celebrated in Sweden and Finland.
C．All the girls hoped to be selected to be a “Saint Lucia”.
D．All the girls take part in the celebration of the tradition.
【2】To spread the belief of Christianity, Lucia __________.
A．managed to persuade the rulers
B．was severely punished by the rulers
C．decided to give up her family at last
D．was in charge of Sweden and Finland
【3】If you are lucky to be selected to be Lucia, what can you do?
A．Take part in various events.
B．Stay in the church for a year.
C．Take charge of the coronation.
D．Choose the entourage by yourself.
【4】What is the text mainly about?
A．Different ways to celebrate Saint Lucia’s Day.
B．Different versions of the legend of Saint Lucia.
C．Saint Lucia’s Day — A traditional Swedish festival.
D．How the Saint Lucia tradition found its way to Sweden.

23、 In Canada you can find dogs, cats, horses and so on, in almost every family. These are their pets. People love these pets and have them as their good friends.

All kinds of birds are welcomed to come and have a good meal. They are free to come and go and nobody is allowed to kill any animal in Canada. They have a law against killing wild animals.

26、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Would You Like a Cup of Tea?
The year when I turned 30, my friend Erin and I hiked part of Newfoundland's East Coast Trail-215 kilometers between Cappahayden and St. John's. There was one take-home I didn't expect: proof of the surprising kindness of strangers.
As a shy woman growing up in the danger of strangers, I'm not one to open up to anyone I don't know. But on that hike, I learned new ways to manage.
Over our first two days, we covered less than 30 kilometers, mostly in the rain. Then the rain changed into a downpour. Nothing dried overnight and everything was wet through. The trails were rugged, with deep muddy puddles. We struggled with every step.
As we emerged from one trail, looking like cats in the rain, a woman and her parents caught sight of us and took pity. "Would you like to come in for a cup of tea?" the woman asked. A brief break from the weather, a warm tea, chairs to sit on—it was all too good to pass up. We hurried to their cottage, and then learned more about our hostess—Jenny. Tea turned into an offer of a shower; the hot shower turned into an offer of a hot meal. After the meal, our boots and clothes were dried out over the oven. We sat on couches, listening to the radio, looking through magazines and talking casually and happily.
The rain stopped. We waved a reluctant goodbye and continued the rest hilly road with new energy.
注意：1. 续写的词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Back at home, I telephoned and told Jenny we'd made it.
