Every year, as Spring Festival draws near, most Chinese people will get excited to make preparation for the most important festival and make plan for the winter break. It is a little like Christmas in the United States, but there are some differences between the two festivals.

Both the major Chinese and the major Western holidays come during the cold season, and special food is expected. In western countries, cookies and cakes begin just after Thanksgiving in November and show up everywhere. Turkey, potatoes and other food come later. Similar thing happens in China. Entering lunar December, most families will make shopping plans for the coming big day and food is certainly one of the most important things to be considered. At the end of the month, both parents in each family will be very busy---the father is busy buying food while the mother is busy cooking.

A deeper similarity (相似处) is tradition. Christmas, as the letters “Christ” suggests, began as a holiday to celebrate the birthday of Jesus Christ. Many people pray (祈祷) on this day. In China, people living in cities or towns, though they don’t plan to sow seeds（播种） this month, still celebrate on the big day for farmers.

Followers of both holidays are also different from each other. While Chinese people travel to the homes of elder relatives, Americans usually call or send cards. Westerners prefer Christmas carols to fireworks. In Christmas, many family gifts come together instead of one by one, since adults may have only one day free to celebrate.

But the most curious difference is about students. Chinese students going home for Spring Festival sometimes report that they get bored by the end of vacation, yet American students seldom get bored around Christmas and western New Year.

Not everyone enjoys classic holiday traditions. Students in western countries may get upset, as too much homework, travel or bad family relations may destroy the short holiday season. In China, more and more college students choose to travel or work during the winter holiday instead of going home to stay with their families. It’s against the tradition but many people accept it.

1.What does “the coming big day” (Paragraph 2) refer to?

A．Christmas                             B．Thanksgiving Day

C．the New Year’s Day                     D．the Spring Festival

2.The second and the third paragraphs mainly talk about ________.

A．the similarities between Christmas and the Spring Festival

B．the differences between Christmas and the Spring Festival

C．the preparations for Christmas and the Spring Festival

D．the history of Christmas and the Spring Festival

3.What does the writer mainly want to tell us in this passage?

A．Food in different festivals.

B．Differences between two festivals.

C．Festivals in China and western countries.

D．Traditional celebrations in different countries.

Kites have been around for a long time. The Chinese invented kites over 2000 years ago. A determined man named Mo Zi had an idea as he watched hawks(鹰) fly. He spent three years making a wooden hawk “kite”. It broke after one flight! Mo Zi and his Chinese friends did not give up. Soon they perfected the art of creating kites.

Kites became part of many Chinese festivals. Pictures of kites were also on vases and in paintings. But kites were meant to fly in places other than China! Marco Polo visited China in the 13th century and brought kites back to Europe with him. Europeans loved them, and the art of kiting “took off”!

Many kites have stories behind them. One Chinese novel, called Journey to the West, was written around 1400 AD. In the story, a priest(僧侣) traveled with three students. One student was a monkey. The second student was a man with pig ears. The third student was a former river monster. These characters often appear on Chinese kites. Another splendid(壮观的) Chinese kite is the dragon kite. A dragon kite is made of many round discs strung together. Often the dragon is bright red, with fat horns and white teeth. The dragon is the king of beasts in Chinese myths. It represents goodness, even though it looks scary. Two kinds of kites have pictures of birds on them. One kite is called the phoenix(凤凰) bird kite. The phoenix bird symbolizes peace. Another kite shows the redheaded crane(鹤).The crane represents happiness, good fortune, and a long life.

Kites come in all shapes and sizes. Flat or bowed kites have a simple shape, such as a diamond or a rectangle(长方形). Delta(三角形) kites are triangular. Rokkaku kites are six-sided and often bear a striking image. Sometimes these kites “fight” each other until one kite drops from the sky. The other kite then wins the “battle”.

1.Who introduced Chinese kites to Europe?

A.A foreigner from Europe. B.Three students in Journey to the West.

C.The priest in Journey to the West. D.A Chinese artist.

2.Which of the following statements is TRUE?

People have been making and flying kites for about 2, 000 years. 1. Some historians believe that the ancient Chinese may have started kite flying 2, 000 years ago. It is still a popular hobby in China, Japan and South Korea and in other countries of the Far East where beautifully decorated kites appear in different colours. In China there is even a special Kite Day on which children and adults fly kites. In Japan, families fly fish kites on Children’s Day.

Kites are made in many different sizes, colours and shapes. 2. It flies because air flows over and under the kite’s wing. The pressure under the wing helps the kite lift into the air.

3. Early scientists sent kites up into the air to measure temperature at different heights. In 1752, Benjamin Franklin used a kite to prove that lightning was a form of electricity. He attached a metal key to the string of a kite. When lightning hit the kite, electricity passed down the string and Franklin got an electric shock. It was a very dangerous experiment that you shouldn’t copy.

Kites were also used to develop airplanes. The Wright Brothers experimented with kites before they flew the first airplane. 4. In World War I the Germans developed a large kite that could transport people to a submarine (underwater ship). Kites were also used to carry radio signals over long distances.
