Four Things About the Spring Equinox (春分)
A
The traditional Chinese solar calendar divides a year into 24 solar terms. The
Spring Equinox is the fourth term of the year. This term signals the equal length
of the day and the night time. Many people hold various activities to celebrate the
festival. Here are several things you may not know about it.
Kite Flying
In ancient times, people did not have good medical resources. So they wrote their
health problems on paper kites. When a paper kite was in the air, people would cut
off the string to let it fly away, meaning the disease would go away. Later flying
kites developed into a popular game in spring.
Three Hous
The ancient Chinese people divided the fifteen days of the Spring Equinox into
three hous or five day parts. As the old saying goes, “Swallows fly back to the
North in the first hou; thunder cracks the sky in the second hou; lightning occurs
frequently in the third hou, which shows the climate feature during the term.”
Spring Vegetables
It is a commonly practised custom to eat spring vegetables in many regions of
China Spring vegetables refer to the seasonal vegetables that differ from place to
place. The ancient teachings in a Chinese classic suggest people eat the seasonal
food, especially vegetables, to help preserve health and bring good luck.
Egg-standing Games
Standing an egg upright (直立的) is a popular game across the country during
the Spring Equinox. It is an old custom that can date back to thousands of years
ago. People practise this tradition to celebrate the coming of spring. It is said
that if someone can make the egg stand he will have good luck in the future.
1. Why did the ancient Chinese people let paper kites fly away in the Spring Equinox?
A. To celebrate freedom.
B. To celebrate good luck.
C. To wish for good health.
D. To win the kite-flying game.
2. What does the saying about three hous show?
A. Natural phenomena.
B. Celebration activities.
C. The environmental protection.
D. The features of Chinese culture.
3. What can we infer about the Spring Equinox from the ancient Chinese teachings?
A. It is the first day of spring.
B. It is the first term of the year.
C. It is the best time to stand eggs upright
D. It is the right time to eat spring vegetables.

In Phoenix, Arizona, about one in five children is identified with dyslexia(阅
读障碍).That means about four students in a classroom of twenty have the problem.
Christine Alm, who has the virtue of being ready to help others, is the co-founder
of Dyslexia Road and the mother of four children with dyslexia. According to Alm,
each diagnosis(诊断)is unique. That can make it difficult to understand a child’
s learning needs. Alm has recently co-founded Dyslexia Road with three other moms
whose children also have dyslexia.The nonprofit organization provides learning
resources for children who have the learning disability.
Dyslexia means a person has trouble processing written words due to the
difficulty of identifying speech sounds. Alm explains that people with dyslexia need
more assistance in training their brain to read. But she adds that many people with
dyslexia are extremely creative and smart. Whoopi Goldberg, Dav Pilkey and Steven
Spielberg are among the famous Americans who have dyslexia.
For Alm, the biggest challenge dealing with dyslexia with her own children is
the stigma surrounding the topic. She believes that it’s helpful to have open and
honest discussions. “Dyslexia is nothing good or bad, ”she says.“ So children
don’t need to feel shameful and embarrassed.”
Alm and the other co-founders of Dyslexia Road host community events to share
resources about dyslexia. On March 2, the organization celebrated its launch with
a community gathering. Many people turned up, suggesting to Alm the “power of
community”. Dyslexia Road will also host three additional events to connect families
with learning experts. Guests will discuss the available educational options, how
to get a diagnostic evaluation and more. Additionally, the Dyslexia Road website
offers resources like books.
“We’re excited to get out there and start pushing forward so that people can
come together and figure out how to direct this journey,” Alm says.
4. What do the co-founders of Dyslexia Road have in common?
A. Their kids are unique and perfect.
B. Their kids have the same problem.
C. They suffer from learning disability.
D. They ignore children’s learning needs.
5. What does Alm suggest doing for people with dyslexia?
A. Helping them do more brain exercises.
B. Making them realise they lack creativity.
C. Creating special reading materials for them.
D. Encouraging them to turn to their own families.
6. What does the underlined word “stigma” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Shame.
C. Principle
7. What’s the purpose of hosting the three additional events?
A. To find out kids with dyslexia.
B. To provide the professional services
C. To sell books about mental disability.

The Masai(马赛人) are continually trying to keep their own ways in an
increasingly modern world. They live along the border of Kenya and Tanzania in East
Africa, moving their homes from time to time to follow their cattle, the source of
their livelihood. They rely on their cattle in many parts of their life. They like
drinking the cows’ milk.
They don’t kill their cattle for food. But if a cow is killed, the parts of
ropes, bed coverings and so
its body are used to make containers, shoes, clothin,
on. Not all of the men have cows. The more cattle a man owns, the richer he is
considered to be. A man who owns 50 or fewer cattle is considered poor. Rich men
have a thousand or more. The cattle, though owned by the man, are considered to belong
to the man’s entire family. The family names the cattle and can recognize each animal’
s special voice.
The Masai men have become known as warriors(勇士), protecting their cattle
against other wild animals. They wear their red long hair. Most women often take
care of their children, cook food, clean clothes and make clothing at home. They
also make necklaces dresses and headdresses. A few women can also become authorities
once they are powerful enough. They speak a language called Maa.
The houses of Masai made from sticks and grass, which are held together with
a mixture of mud, are not very firm or safe. These plain houses with some basic
supplies are built in a circle and make up a Masai village. They are not meant to
last long since the migration(迁徙) of the cow population means that the Masai move
as well. In the meantime, in order to prevent animals from entering, they also form
a wall of branches. The whole setup is to protect the cattle, which sleep at night
in the middle of the village. They seem to live a natural and self-sufficient life
but lack modern civilisation.
8. What do we know about the Masai?
A. They don’t move in their lives.
B. They each have their own cows.
C. They don’t kill their cattle at all.
D. They are heavily dependent on cattle.
9. What do most of the Masai women work as?
A. Designers.
C. Housewives.
10. Which word best describes Masai houses?
A. Modern.
11. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Africans: Living a Moving life
B. Africans: Brave People in the World
C. The Masai: Rich People in East Africa
D. The Masai: Maintaining a Traditional Lifestyle
【答案】8. D

Researchers concerned with space exploration say they have discovered new
evidence that Mars once had a large northern ocean. The discovery adds to existing
evidence that the ancient Mars had the right conditions to possibly support some
form of life.
Today, any water on Mars is believed to be in the form of ice because of the
planet’s extremely cold desert temperatures. But there is a rich amount of evidence
suggesting that rivers, lakes and even oceans once existed on Mars. A study by the
American space agency NASA suggested that billions of years ago, Mars likely had
an ocean that covered nearly half of Mars’ northern hemisphere(半球). Another
NASA-supported study estimated that about several billion years ago, the climate
in much of the planet’s northern hemisphere was very similar to today’s Earth.
The study noted that at that time, Mars likely had a much thicker atmosphere than
today and had an active northern ocean.
Two American researchers recently released a set of maps to provide new
environmental evidence of a large ancient ocean on Mars’ low-lying northern
hemisphere. The team collected data from satellite images and photos of Mars. They
then combined them to create maps of the planet’s northern hemisphere. Using the
maps, the researchers were able to piece together evidence of shorelines that sat
at the edge of a huge body of water about 3.5 billion years ago.
The researchers published their findings in the JournalofGeophysicalResearch:
Planets.Benjamin Cardenas, a professor at The Penn State University, was a co-writer
of the study. He said the study’s findings showed the possible ocean in that area
of Mars was changeable and interesting. “It was dynamic(动态的). The sea level rose
significantly,” he said. “Rocks were being deposited(沉积) along its basins at
a fast rate. There was a lot of change happening here.” Besides, Cardenas suggested
the new study also provided useful information on Mars’ ancient climate and
developmental history. “Based on these findings, we know there had to have been
a period when it was warm enough and the atmosphere was thick enough to support this
much liquid water at one time,” he said.
12. How does the author develop paragraph 2?
A. By giving examples.
B. By listing data.
C. By making assumptions.
D. By drawing comparisons.
13. What does paragraph 3 mainly tell us about the researchers?
A. Where they created maps.
B. When they landed on Mars.
C. Why they studied satellites.
D. How they found the evidence.
14. What can we learn about Mars according to the new study?
A. It must have been always warm.
B. It might have had an active ocean.
C. The climate and sea level were unchangeable.
D. The atmosphere was too thin to support water.
15. Where is the text most probably taken from?
A. A photography book.
B. An entertainment magazine.
C. A scientific journal.
D. An agricultural newspaper.
