On Christmas Eve─the night before Christmas Day─children all over Britain put a stocking at the end of their beds before they go to sleep. Their parents usually tell them that Father Christmas will come during the night.
Father Christmas is very kind and hearted. He gets to the top of each house and climbs down the chimney into the fireplace. He fills each of the stockings with Christmas presents.
Of course, Father Christmas isn't real. In Jim and Kate's house, "Father Christmas" is really Mr Green. Mr Green doesn't climb down the chimney. He waits until the children are asleep. Then he quietly goes into their bedrooms and fills their stockings with small presents. When they were very young, Mr Green sometimes wore a red coat. But he doesn't do that now. The children are no longer young, and they know who "Father Christmas" really is. But they still put their stockings at the end of their beds.
1.Christmas Eve is __________.
A. the night of Christmas Day B. the evening of Christmas Day
C. Christmas Day D. the night before Christmas Day
2.Father Christmas often puts presents ________.

The last few days before Christmas passed quickly and it was soon Christmas Eve. That night when everyone went to bed, Bunny couldn't sleep. He still couldn't think of what he wanted his special Christmas gift to be. He wondered how Santa Claus would know what to bring him if he didn't know himself.
As he was sitting up in bed, Bunny heard a big noise on the roof and a sound downstairs. It was Santa Claus, he realized. Bunny jumped out of bed and raced down the hall to the stairs hoping to have a look at the old man with his own eyes.
By the time Bunny reached the bottom of the stairs, though, everything was again silent .Beautiful gifts were piled(堆积) under the Christmas tree, but Santa Claus was gone. He looked for him for a few minutes, but it was already too late. Bunny turned to climb back upstairs when he heard a cry.
“Hello,” said Bunny. “Is somebody there?”
He was answered by another cry. Bunny looked around the big pile of gifts to see what was making the noise. Right under the tree was a funny looking brown animal with big feet and sad eyes. Bunny might have mistaken it for a dog, if it hadn’t been for the antlers(鹿角) on its head.
"Are you a reindeer?" asked Bunny.
"Yes," replied the animal, “my name is Ralph."
"And you were pulling Santa’s sled(雪橇)?"
"I was until I got air-sick," replied Ralph," I'm afraid I wasn't cut out for the job. Now I'm stuck here and I don't know how to get back to the North Pole."
"Well, if you like, you can stay with us as a friend," said Bunny. As he made the offer, Bunny suddenly realized the gift he wanted from Santa Claus was a new friend!
1. Why couldn't Bunny fall asleep on Christmas Eve?
A. He had a lot of things to do.
B. He wanted to take a look at the reindeer.
C. He was disturbed by a big noise.
D. He was thinking of what gift he would get.
2.As soon as Bunny came downstairs, he _____.
A. was probably very sad B. found what he wanted
C. ran into a reindeer D. heard a loud cry
3. The underlined part “cut out for” in the passage probably means”___”
A. fit for B. afraid of
C. proud of D. interested in
4.Why didn't Ralph go back to the North Pole?
A. He got stuck in the chimney.
B. Bunny asked him to stay.
C. He was air-sick.
D. He didn't know the way to the North Pole.
5.What would be the best title for the passage?

The Christmas Eve meal is very important in most European countries. While other Christian families around the world celebrate this great meal with different kinds of meat, it is a tradition for Italians to eat seven different kinds of fish. Such a meal is called the “Feast of the Seven Fishes”. It’s also considered traditional that there may be nine, eleven, or even thirteen fishes for the meal. This kind of celebration is held to remember the birth of the baby Jesus.
The Feast of the Seven Fishes was held just by southern Italians as a custom at first, but today Italians all over the world hold it. Although the Feast of the Seven Fishes has been regarded as an Italian custom, no one definitely knows the meaning of it. There are lots of explanations for it. Some people believe that seven fishes are served because it took God seven days to create the world. Other explanations mention the Seven Hills of Rome.
For the Feast of the Seven Fishes, it’s not certain that which kinds of fish should be served. At the Feast of the Seven Fishes, the meal usually begins with antipasto (开胃食物) and ends with delicious desserts.
The Feast of the Seven Fishes has been a tradition since ancient times, and it will continue or even change as life changes. However, for Italians all over the world, the cultural meaning of the tradition is more important than anything else.

It was on the afternoon of the day of Christmas Eve, and I was in Mrs. Prothero’s garden, waiting for cats, with her son Jim. It was snowing. Patient and cold, our hands wrapped in socks, we waited to snowball the cats. The wise cats never appeared. We were so still in the snow that we never heard Mrs. Prothero’s first cry from the bottom of the garden. Or, if we heard it at all, it was, to us, like the cry of the neighbor’s Polar cat. But soon the voice grew louder. “Fire!” cried Mrs. Prothero.
And we ran down the garden, with the snowballs in our arms, towards the house; and smoke, indeed, was pouring out of the dining room.
This was better than all the cats in Wales standing on the wall in a row. We loaded with snowballs, stopped at the open door of the smoke-filled room. Something was burning all right; perhaps it was Mr. Prothero, who always slept there after midday dinner with a newspaper over his face; but he was standing in the middle of the room, saying, “A fine Christmas!”
There was no fire to be seen, only clouds of smoke and Mr. Prothero standing in the middle of them, waving his slipper as though he were conducting.
“Do something,” he said.
And we three all our snowballs into the smoke—I think we missed Mr. Porthero—and ran out of the house.
“Let’s call the police,” Jim said.
“And Emie Jenkins, he likes fires.” But we only called the fire-brigade, and soon the fire-engine came. Mr. Porthero went out just in time before they turned the hose (水管) on.
1.Why were the boys in Mrs. Prothero’s garden?
A.They were about to start a snowball fight.
B.They were waiting to see if there would be any fires this year.
C.They were waiting to hear Mrs. Porthero’s first cry.
D.They were waiting for the neighbour’s cats to appear.
2.The underlined phrase “snowball the cats” (in Paragraph 1) means “__________”.
A.make cats out of snow B.bury cats under the snow
C.throw snowballs at the cats D.play tricks on cats
3.When the boys saw smoke pouring out of the dining room, __________.
A.they were joyful and excited B.they were frightened and worried
C.they were sorry for Mrs. Prothero D.they were worried about Mr. Prothero
