As we all know, the Dragon Boat Festival is our country’s traditional festival, but do you know there is also a Dragon Boat Festival in South Korea, which also falls on May 5 of the lunar calendar(阴历)? It has been reported that South Korea will apply to United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO 联合国教科文组织) to make the celebration of the Dragon Boat Festival its own intangible cultural heritage (非物质的文化遗产). If successful, people from other countries may see the Dragon Festival as a Korean creation. As the birthplace of the yearly event more than 2,000 years ago, China is not happy with the situation. "It would be a shame if another country successfully made a traditional Chinese festival part of its own cultural heritage ahead of China," said Zhou Heping, deputy(副) culture minister. The Ministry of Culture is even thinking of making its own application to UNESCO, covering all traditional Chinese festivals, including the Dragon Boat event. It is thought that the festival is held in memory of the great poet Qu Yuan (340-278 BC), who lived in the State of Chu during the Warring States Period. Qu was known to be a patriot (爱国者) and admired by ordinary people. He is said to have jumped into Miluo River, because he had lost hope in his country's future. When people heard about Qu's death, they sailed up and down the river searching for his body. They also beat the drums to frighten away the fish and threw Zongzi into the water to stop the fish touching Qu. Dragon boat racing is said to come from this search for the poet's body. Over the years, the Dragon Boat Festival has spread throughout the world. In Japan and Viet Nam, as well as South Korea, the festival has mixed with and become part of the local culture. 1.The Dragon Boat Festival _______. A. is also kept by South Korea B. comes from South Korea C. was created by South Korea D. is South Korea’s cultural heritage 2.What is the reaction of the Ministry of Culture to South Korea’s intending to make the Dragon Boat Festival its own cultural heritage ? A. Fighting against South Korea B. Telling South Korea it’s not right to do so C. Considering to do the similar thing D. Asking South Korea not to do so. 3.What is the purpose of the Dragon Boat Festival’s being held? A. In memory of Qu Yuan B. In memory of all the patriots of China C. To frighten away the fish D. In honor of QuYuan’s birthday 4. After Qu Yuan’s death, Zongzi was thrown into the water to _______. A. feed him. B. protect his body from going bad. C. prevent the fish biting his body D. attract his soul 5.Now, the Dragon Boat Festival has become ______ activity. A. a nationwide B. a worldwide C. an Asian D. a foreign

No one doubts that students should study languages, maths and science in high school, but some may be against the idea that they should study art and music as well. To them, these subjects are useless for students' future and are not worth the time and effort. In my opinion, however, it is necessary for middle school students to study art and music. Art and music are a valuable culture legacy（遗产）, which bring us pleasure and enjoyment. Have you ever been deeply moved by Beethoven's famous Fifth Symphony? Have you ever been shocked by the colorful starry night produced by Vincent van Gogh in his paint? Have you ever longed for the moving love between the Butterfly Lovers when you hear this well-known Chinese melody（曲调）? Art and music are not only images and sounds, but something beyond them. They are the products of passion and human wisdom. Art and music help make students more creative. Artists and musicians are considered the most creative people in the world. It is because art and music sharpen their senses and provide a different perspective (视角)for them to see the world. Many great scientists benefited from art and music. Einstein, the greatest physicist in the 20th century, as well as an excellent violin player, is a good example. Enjoying art and music is also a good way to relax ourselves. Middle school students, who typically carry heavy burdens of study, will definitely benefit from it. In a word, art and music should absolutely be included in the middle school courses, for they can bring students pleasure,creativity and relaxation. 1.According to the author, people who think art and music are useless for middle school students_____. A. don't realize the value of art and music B. don't know the history of art and music at all C. never benefit from artists and musicians D. know little about the future education 2.In paragraph 2, the author tries to argue that______. A. Beethoven is one of the greatest musicians B. art and music help express people's feelings C. art and music are valuable pictures and sounds D. art and music bring people joy and relaxation 3.The example of Einstein is used to_______. A. show the importance of creativity B. prove that scientists are creative C. encourage students to study art and music D. provide students with a new way to see the world 4.Which of the following is used to support the writer's opinion? A. Art and music are helpful to make students creative learners. B.Art and music provide people with more opportunities. C.Art and music help people become scientists. D.Art and music must help students in other subjects. 5.Which of the following is an effective way for middle school students to study ? A. Relaxing themselves regularly while studying. B. Attending concerts during holidays or after school. C. Avoiding too much homework by studying art and music. D. Listening to music while studying language, maths or other subjects.

A mouse happened to look through a hole in the wall to see the farmer and his wife open a package. “What food might this contain?” The mouse wondered. But he was sad to discover it was a mousetrap. Back to the farmyard, the mouse announced this warning; “There is a mousetrap in the house! There is a mouse trap in the house!” The hen clucked (咯咯地叫) and scratched, raised her head and said, “Mr. Mouse, I can tell this is a great concern to you, but it is of no consequence to me. I cannot be bothered by it.” Then the mouse turned to the pig. The pig sympathized, but said, “I am so very sorry, Mr. Mouse, but there is nothing I can do about it but pray. Be assured you are in my prayers.” Then the mouse turned to the cow and repeated the same words. The cow said, “Moo, Mr. Mouse. I’m sorry for you, but it’s no skin off my nose.” So, the mouse returned to the house, head down and sadly faced the farmer’s mousetrap alone. That very right a sound was heard throughout the house – the sound of a mousetrap catching its prey (猎物). The farmer’s wife rushed to see what was caught. In the darkness, she did not see it. It was a poisonous snake whose tail was caught in the trap. The snake bit the farmer’s wife. The farmer rushed her to the hospital. When she returned home, she still had a fever. Everyone knows fresh chicken soup is good to treat a fever. So the farmer took his knife to the farmyard. The hen was killed. But his wife’s sickness continued. Friends and neighbors came to sit with her around the clock. To feed them, the farmer butchered the pig. The farmer’s wife did not get well but died. So many people came for her funeral that the farmer had the cow killed to provide enough meat for all of them for the lunch. The mouse looked upon it all from his hole in the wall with great sadness. 1. What surprised the mouse when looking through the hole? A. The farmer and his wife. B. A dangerous mousetrap. C. A package with food in. D. A poisonous snake. 2. What did the mouse do when it returned to the farmyard? A. It had a warn talk with his friends. B. It warned its neighbors of the danger. C. It argued with its neighbors loudly. D. It tried hard to cheer its neighbors. 3.Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the story? A. The hen was sure that it needn’t be bothered by it. B. The pig only expressed its sympathy for the mouse. C. The farmer’s wife was bitten by the poisonous snake. D. The farmer’s neighbors came to his home for meat. 4.What does the underlined sentence “but it’s no skin off my nose” in paragraph 5 mean? A. It is none of my business. B. It is out of the question. C. It doesn’t affect my smell. D. It is not interesting at all. 5.Which of the following can best express the moral of the story? A. Mind works faster in time of danger. B.
