1、阅读下列短文,从每题的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
Give fishermen a string, and they can use it to catch fish, but give it to young men from Huotong Town and they can make a lion fly. Indeed, many children growing up in the town in Ningde City, Fujian Province, might be under the impression that lions can actually fly, as they come into contact with the popular string lion dance at an early age.
From a distance, bamboo lions with colorful long hair could be seen high above a small wooden stage in Xingxian Village in mid-March, each seeming to have a life of their own. Closer up, it was possible to see that they were linked by what looked like countless long strings that were being operated by a team of young people behind the stage.
The young people made every effort during the show, sometimes using their weight to pull the strings, and other times jumping up and down to control the strings to make the lions do various fancy actions, ranging from rolling, jumping, to running one after another, and fighting for a ball.
Applause broke out from the crowd as the lions came to rest, and a group of young boys stepped out from behind the curtain.
"This is my happiest moment, getting recognition from the audience," says Chen Jihong, 24, who leads the team of around 30 members aged between 13 and 24.
Like other children in the region, Chen was first fascinated by the dance as a child when his mother took him to watch a lantern show on the day of longtaitou, or Dragon Head Raising Day. He remembers how the crowd suddenly became excited and cheered for the string lions to come out. Curiously, he pushed through the crowd to get a closer view as the lifelike lions came into sight.
Huang Zhenqiao, a senior inheritor of the tradition that was named a national intangible (非物质的) cultural heritage in 2006, says that the string lion dance dates back about 1,300 years and is one of the most attractive shows at the local lantern show on that day.

C、A person who prefers to get rid of old things. D、A person who studies the history of a country.(5)、What might be talked about if the text is to be continued?A、How the string lion dance has been improved. B、What can be named a cultural heritage in the region. C、Why Chinese people love operating the string lion dance. D、Who is likely to be the next inheritor of making lanterns. -
