Strangest Festivals around the World
Through the years, people have found many ways to celebrate important occasions
in their lives. If you’re looking for an interesting and off-the-beaten-path tourist
site, here are some most wonderful and unusual festivals from around the world.
Battle of the Orange, Ivrea, Italy
Each year in February, a battle takes place in this Italian town among thousands
of tourists who throw oranges at each other during a 30-minute fight. The aim is
to try and knock down other people by attacking them with oranges so that they cannot
stand any longer.
Underwater Music Festival, Florida, America
Rather than being held at a typical concert hall, the Underwater Music Festival
takes place on the seabed in July. Aiming to protect the sea lives, this unique custom
features musicians playing music below water level. 100 feet deep in clear water,
talented musicians wear diving equipment, performing free concerts for sea creatures
and humans alike.
Rayne Frog (青蛙) Festival, Louisiana, America
The Rayne Frog Festival is held every fall in Rayne, Louisiana. The festival
features all things frog: frog races, frog jumping, and the selection of the Frog
Derby Queen. Besides music performance, it also holds a variety of frog-themed runs,
fairs and other activities. If you are into frogs, there’s no other place you’
d rather be in mid-November.
Night of the Radishes (萝卜), Oaxaca, Mexico
Night of the Radishes is a celebration that takes place every December 23rd in
Oaxaca, Mexico. It features all kinds of radish sculptures (雕塑). The tradition
began when local radish growers began carving their produce in order to attract
customers. But radishes are just radishes after all, and the sculptures don’t last.

August 21st, 2020 was a day of excitement for panda lovers. Mei Xiang, a
22-year-old panda, gave birth to a baby at American Smithsonian’s National Zoo.
It is the seventh baby panda since she came to the country in 2000. Three of her
babies have survived to adulthood. Mei Xiang is the oldest panda in the U.S. and
the second-oldest recorded in the world to give birth, which surprised
professionals.
“Pandas are an international symbol of endangered wildlife and hope,” said
Steve Monfort, the zoo’s director, “and we are excited to offer the world a
much-needed moment of joy.” As pandas are endangered animals, the birth of every
panda holds special meaning.
“This is part of our bigger program, where it’s not just about keeping panda
babies in zoos and educating people about pandas, but it’s about the wild protection
work we do,” added Brandie Smith, the zoo’s deputy director. According to Smith,
the birth suggests people-to-people cooperation and wildlife protection between the
countries have been going well. “Our partners in China were the first we contacted.
They have much experience since there are so many pandas born in China.” Smith said.
As home to pandas, China spares no effort to protect pandas. Efforts have
included protecting their living environment, introducing pandas to the wild and
issuing laws to punish hunters. The Chinese government also set up iPandaas a website
streaming (直播) pandas’ lives to a global audience.
For years, the animal has never failed in its duty as China’s ambassador (大
使) of friendship and won hearts of fans worldwide. Since 2008, the movie series
KungFuPandahas become popular globally, strengthening China’s international image,
as Kung Fu Panda represents Chinese wisdom and courage. Bing Dwen Dwen, the cheerful
official mascot (吉祥物) for the 2022 Beijing Olympic Winter Games, connected and
brought joy to people around the world.
4. What can we learn about Mei Xiang?

B. She came to the American national zoo in 2020.

Many of us sometimes find ourselves wondering or even worrying about the future.
Will we get into the school of our choice? What will we be doing in ten years’ time?
Can we become the person we really want to be? Faced with such questions, how should
we head for the future? Can we take action to shape it, or should we just accept
whatever comes our way?
As we know, having plans for the future doesn’t mean that they will become reality.
In this respect, some people are more fortunate than others, as can be seen by
comparing the lives of two famous authors. Although they both were ambitious, their
life journeys unfolded in totally different ways.
The American author, Ernest Hemingway was from early boyhood single-minded in
his ambition to write. On leaving high school, he joined a local newspaper and went
on to become a foreign correspondent (驻外记者). He used his extraordinary
experiences in Europe and later Cuba to inform his writing. His short novel TheOld
ManandtheSea won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 1953. He later won the Nobel
Prize in Literature.
Authur Conan Doyle, born in Scotland, had originally worked as a doctor. But
Doyle’s main ambition was to become a writer of historical novels. Although some
of his historical novels were published, their success was nothing compared to his
detective (侦探) stories, Sherlock Holmes. Interestingly, he finished some of the
earliest SherlockHolmesstories while waiting for patients. After SherlockHolmes
made him a household name, Doyle gave up medicine and threw himself entirely into
writing.
Though both were finally successful, their paths to success were very different,
their futures not necessarily turning out exactly as they planned. So, whatever
twists (曲折) and turns you might come across, take a leaf out of the books of these
two authors and be prepared for the unexpected.
8. How does the author introduce the topic?
A. By making comparison.
B. By quoting famous people’s
words.
C. By raising questions.
D. By presenting opinions.
9. What does the underlined word “inform” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Publish.
B. Adapt.
C. Influence.
D.
Revise.
10. What does the story of Authur Conan Doyle show?
A. Success may come in an unexpected way.
B. It’s better to stick to one’s original goal.
C. Self-confidence is the first step to success.
D. A good beginning is half done.
11. What is the most suitable title for the text?
A. Making Life Plans
B. Facing the Future
C. The Secret of Writing
D. Twists and Turns in Life
【答案】8. C
9. C
10. A

In the concert celebrating the Tsinghua University’s 110th anniversary, Fang
Jinlong, a master of the traditional Chinese instrument pipa, and three robots from
the Tsinghua Moja Robot Band performed several Chinese music pieces. “I’m happy
to see our performance can mix science and technology with traditional Chinese
culture,” said Fang.
The robot band was founded in 2018. The band name “Moja” is from Mohism, one
of many schools of thought before the Qin Dynasty. It is made up of three robot
musicians, Yuheng, Yaoguang and Kaiyang, named after three stars. They played three
kinds of traditional Chinese instruments: the bamboo flute, Chinese harp and paigu,
a set of Chinese drums, at the concert. The team behind the band include students,
teachers and graduates from Tsinghua University. They have professional backgrounds
such as computing, mechanical engineering and music composition (作曲).
The team’s chief scientist Mi Haipeng is an associate professor at the Academy
of Fine Arts in Tsinghua. He took part in the research and development of a robot
rock band when he studied in Japan. That experience inspired his dream to make a
Chinese robot band.
Mi said traditional Chinese instruments’ sound and playing techniques are
different from those of Western musical instruments. The focus is more on the
artistic conception (概念) and expression of the players. This kind of
non-quantitative (非定量的) control brings challenges to Moja robot development.
“In our research, we continuously explore how to solve these problems so that the
robots can maintain the Chinese traditional characteristics when playing music,”
he added.
Mi said the music pieces in the concert were specially made for the robots to
play. The robots’ stage clothes were made with 3D-printing technology. He added
that there are more performance plans for Moja in the future, introducing new music
pieces. The team, meanwhile, would improve the musical expression of the robots.
12. What is the performance like according to Fang Jinlong?
A. Traditional yet creative.
B. Fancy and fashionable.
C. Virtual yet accessible.
D. Unique and fast-paced.
13. What can we learn about the band?
A. It has a stable performing style.
B. Its name came from online
language.
C. It successfully mixes high-tech and tradition.
D. Its performers play
western musical instruments.
14. Where can you find the difficulty of the band’s development?
A. In paragraph 2.
C. In paragraph 4.
B. In paragraph 3.
D. In paragraph 5.
15. What will the developers do in the future?
A. Create more new robot musicians.
B. Get the robots to practise more often.
C. Design new clothes for the robots.
D. Improve the robots’ musical performance.
【答案】12. A
13. C
14. C
15. D
