Traditional Marriage Ceremonies

Belgium

The groom comes to the bride's house and gives her flowers. They go to the church and the man is inside when the bride's father brings her to her future husband. When they come out, the family throws rice on them.

Germany

Some days before the wedding, friends and relatives bring old porcelain (瓷器) and kitchenware to throw on the ground in front of the bride and groom.

Usually, a wedding's main focus is on the bride and groom. However, one couple were upstaged by a huge brown bear that they invited to be a part of their special day.

Denis and Nelya, both 30, from Moscow, Russia, hired 21-stone Stepan to play the role of ringbearer — and he even turned up to their ceremony wearing a black bow tie.

The bear, which stands seven-foot tall, was very involved with the ceremony, even posing for photos with both bride and groom.

At one point he even acted as the registrar and joins paws with the couple as they professed their love for each other. Standing underneath a cream fabric canopy(华盖) and surrounded by greenery, flowers and fruit, Stepan helped the couple on their wedding day.

Denis said, “We both knew Stepan is a very kind bear but still it is a huge, unpredictable animal so we were a bit scared, but still happy to be able to make our dream come true. It was a fantastic experience to have this photo shoot with Stepan. We will absolutely remember this day forever.”

Stepan the bear first found fame in May 2016, when a series of photos of the tame animal were published. He was adopted by Russian couple Svetlana and Yuriy Panteleenko aged just three months after being discovered by hunters in the forest, having lost his mother.

Svetlana said, “Stepan likes nothing more than to cuddle up with us on the sofa at night while we're watching television. He absolutely loves people and is a really sociable bear — despite what people might think, he is not aggressive at all. We have never been bitten by Stepan.”

1.The underlined word “upstage” in paragraph 1 probably means ________.

A. attract            B. over-drop            C. bite            D. surprise

2.What do we know about Stepan?

C. Stepan is popular since he was born.

D. Stepan caught the guests’ attention.

3.Where might the passage be taken from?
