    What's your favorite holiday? We asked this question to children from different countries. And here are some of their answers.

    Lara

    I think the best holiday in my home country is Christmas. It is on 25th, December. It often snows a lot during the Christmas season. The snow gives us a romantic (浪漫的) feeling. There are all kinds of special markets during the holiday. We have great fun visiting these markets with our friends. Of course, we can enjoy some delicious food, like candies, biscuits and cheese.

    Mingming

    In my opinion, the best holiday is the Spring Festival. It often happens in January or February. It is one of the main festivals in my country. My family gets together and enjoy traditional food, such as dumplings. We also visit our relatives and friends. The kids receive red envelopes with money inside.

    Amy

    I would say that the best holiday is Thanksgiving. It is the fourth Thursday of November each year. Families get together and talk about things they are thankful for. But I don't like some aspects (方面) of this holiday. For example, there is so much delicious food at the big dinner and I always eat too much of it.

    Dancing is popular all over the world. People dance in theaters, in parks or in their own living room. But Yang Liu, a woman in Guizhou, dances in an unusual place. Her stage is a single bamboo pole.

    Her hard work finally paid off. Now 26, Yang has made a name for herself as a dancer on a bamboo pole. People can't believe their eyes whenever they watch her performances. Through Yang's dances, many people now know about bamboo drifting. They have discovered the beauty of this traditional skill.

    Doorbells are the bells (铃) for people to ring at a door. When someone hears it, he or she can open the door. Do you know that you can ring a doorbell for fish, too? 

    Every spring, millions of fish migrate (洄游) along the river in the city to find better places to lay eggs. But in the river, there are many locks (水闸). They stop fish from swimming through. Weerd Lock is in Utrecht, the fourth largest city in the Netherlands (荷兰). When fish get there, they have to wait a long time before the lock opens for boats to pass through. The lock keeper there is glad to open the lock for fish, but he cannot tell when fish want to get through. So in 2021, Mark van Heukelum, a scientist, came up with a good idea to help solve this problem—by using the fish doorbell. 

    Under the water near the lock, there's a camera. People from around the world can visit a website (网站) to see fish through the camera. When you see a group of fish waiting, you can ring the doorbell on the screen. And when the lock keeper notices it, he will open the lock for the fish.

    In its first spring season in 2021, people around the world rang the fish doorbell more than 100,000 times. If you want to join them to help fish, visit the website and ring the fish doorbell next spring. 

    (1)、Fish migrate along the river in Utrecht to ____.
    A、have fun B、look for food C、lay eggs
    (2)、How does the fish doorbell work? 

    ① Lock keepers open the lock. ② Lock keepers notice the ringing. 

    ③ Internet users ring the doorbell. ④ Internet users see a group of fish on the screen.

    A、①②③④ B、④③②① C、④①③②
    (3)、Which of the following about the fish doorbell is NOT TRUE?
    A、The camera is above the water near the lock. B、Fish groups swim through Weerd Lock every spring. C、The lock keepers don't know when fish wait to get through until they hear the doorbell.
    (4)、In which part of a newspaper can we read this passage?
    A、Life. B、Health. C、Technology.

    Since November 20th, it has been a great time for us, soccer fans around the world—a time when our friends got together around the television, cheering on favorite soccer teams. Every night, we were shouting, and jumping up and down. Soccer fans got really into the games. Although the next World Cup is in 2026, many of us have made the wish to watch it live. 

    Why are we so crazy? Maybe it's the game's camaraderie: the feeling that the team on the field is our team; their win is our victory, and their loss is our failure. Or maybe it's the game's international quality. In countries like France, England, Spain, and Brazil, major teams have players from many different nations, and these teams now have fans all over the world.

    But I think the main reason may be this: It's a simple game. Anyone can play it. "You don't need to be rich to play soccer," says historian Peter Alegi. "You just need an open space and something like a ball, a bottle, or even some bags tied together." Even in some war areas, you can see children and adults play on the street, often with handmade balls. That's why soccer becomes the most loved sport.

    In human history, people have played some kinds of the kicking game. What the world now calls football—or soccer in the United States—began as far back as 2500 B.C. with the Chinese game of cuju. However, the sport we know today first appeared in Britain. In the 1840s, England's Football Association made a set of rules, and the modern game was born. Today, more than 200 million players all over the world take part in the game, truly making soccer the world's sport.

    Surprisingly, many of the game's best players come from poor families in African nations, including Senegal, Ivory Coast and Ghana. Through their hard work, these best players achieve success and find their value. "Soccer is the love of everyone here," says Abubakari, a teacher who works in Tamale, Ghana. "It gives people hope and makes us strong."

    (1)、The modern soccer game was born in ____.
    A、China B、America C、Africa D、Britain
    (2)、The underlined word "camaraderie" in Paragraph 2 probably means "____".
    A、共情 B、亲情 C、悲情 D、同情
    (3)、In Paragraph 3, the sentence "It's a simple game" is written to show that ____.
    A、the rules are easy for people to understand B、people can play it almost anywhere with almost anything C、people need much talent to play it D、there are only a few different kinds of the game
    (4)、This passage is mainly about ____.
    A、the history of soccer B、the popularity of soccer C、different soccer teams D、best soccer players
