Buyi men and women in their best clothes sing and dance at the village entrance as they greet visitors and invite them to join the villagers in making cake flour with rice.The village was first built during the Ming Dynasty, with a history of more than 400 years. Three sides of the village are surrounded by water. It is built against the mountains according to the local geological conditions.There are about 120 families and three fourths of them are Buyi nationality and one fourth are Miao people. On January 10th every lunar year, the villagers hold traditional dancing activities to celebrate the New Year. Buyi and Miao villagers in their best costumes sing and dance to the melodies from the Lusheng (芦笙) and the bamboo flutes to celebrate their own traditional festival. Legends said once some robbers captured the Buyi forefather in the village. The villagers failed to rescue him by themselves and asked the local Miao people for help. The Miao people played the Lusheng and sang Miao songs to communicate with him and the robbers couldnt understand them. With the help of the Miao people, the forefather was rescued. Since then, the local Buyi people have formed the custom of singing and dancing to appreciate the help from the Miao. People sing and dance for three days for the festival each year.Besides this, Zhenshan villagers also celebrate the traditional “Siyueba” Festival (April 8th Festival) and the “Qiyueban” Festival (the Ghost Festival). Now, these festivals have become joyous days celebrated by Miao, Buyi, Dong, Zhuang, Shui, Gelao, and even the Han people.In Zhenshan, some young people take advantage of the festivals to make friends and choose their future husbands or wives. Girls usually make embroideries (刺绣) and give them as gifts to their lovers.1.We can infer the village is called a world of stone mainly because _.Athe villagers are very coldBthe villagers are very strongCthe village is built on a large stoneDthe village is in mountains and rich in stones解析：选D推理判断题。根据第一、二段可知，这是一个依山而建的村子，石头资源丰富，因此选D项。2Which of the following isnt a way of greeting visitors?ADressing up.BDancing and singing.CPreparing embroideries.DInviting them to make cake flour.解析：选C细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句和最后一段的“Girls usually make embroideries (刺绣) and give them as gifts to their lovers.”可知，欢迎游客的活动不包括C项。3The Miao people played the Lusheng and sang Miao songs at first to _.Astop the robbers understanding themBshow the robbers their powerCchallenge the Buyi peopleDplease the robbers解析：选A细节题解题。根据第三段“The Miao people played the Lusheng and sang Miao songs to communicate with him and the robbers couldnt understand them.”可知选A项。4What can we learn about the “Siyueba” Festival?AIt is a newlyformed festival.BIt is only celebrated in Zhenshan Village.CIt is popular with all the ethnic minorities.DIt is a chance for young people to make friends.解析：选D细节理解题。根据文章最后一段中的“In Zhenshan, some young people take this advantage of the festivals to make friends .”可知，D项正确。BSo often I hear people justify (为辩解) their lack of family trips because their children are not old enough to remember them.This reason is so confusing to me.Who would travel based on another persons memory?Of course the kids arent going to remember anything in infancy (婴儿期), but you will.You will remember all the sweet memories you had with them.My parents would take me to Guatemala as a child.I dont remember a lot of the trip, but I do know that when I went back as a young adult, I felt comfortable in my surroundings.I didnt spend my time there discovering a new way of life.I spent the time having fun with my family.I love looking at pictures that we took together when I was my sons age.I dont remember them, but thats not the point.The point is, I was there with my family, and I know I was happy.Now that Im a parent, I cant help but do the same.Last year, we took our 2yearold son to Disney alongside his greatgrandmother.His greatgrandmother had recently begun to suffer from Alzheimers.That trip was timed in the most magical way right before my son was old enough to remember it and right before his greatgrandmother began to forget.This makes me want to cry for them both.How did we get so lucky to have this moment to share with each other before big changes influenced our family forever?Realistically speaking, many families do not have the opportunity to travel internationally or visit pricey theme (主题) parks.I understand this more than you know, but Im talking beyond that.They are young but these forgettable moments are still changing them.They will shape your child into who they will be tomorrow.The memories we absorb as their parents are also as influential as we have not finished learning our truths either.语篇解读：本文是夹叙夹议文。有些家长认为孩子太小记不住事情，因而认为带他们去旅行没有意义。而作者认为，虽然孩子很小，可能记不住这些，但是这些美好时光不仅会在潜移默化中塑造他们，也会对家长产生巨大的影响。5Why do some parents go on few family trips?AThey have no time.BThey can not afford them.CThey are not interested in them.DThey think their kids wont remember them.解析：选D细节理解题。根据首段中的“because their children are not old enough to remember them”可知，家长认为孩子太小记不住事情，因此家庭旅行较少。6Whats the authors impression of her childhood trip to Guatemala?AClear.

Yes, indeed. Its part of a growing worldwide trend toward outdoor education. The schools are called Forest Kindergartens. The numbers are small so far in the US., but the idea is well established in Europe, with schools in Britain and Switzerland. By far the most of such schools are in Germany, which has more than 400 Waldkindergartens.Some schools feature several hours of outdoor schooling. Children enjoy a good amount of outdoor education each day, rainy or sunny. In all cases, students are active not sitting at desks but walking, running, jumping and solving problems like how to get the mud off the bottoms of their shoes before their parents find out.Seriously, the focus is on activities at these schools. All of these activities just have to be good for the childrens physical wellbeing as well. Childrens immune systems actually get stronger after all of the outdoor activities. Other studies have shown that graduates of Waldkindergartens show a higher ability to learn when they progress through their academic careers.Other schools are all outdoors, all the time. This is the case with the Cedarsong Nature School, on Vashon Island, Wash. Students at this school come dressed for the weather, because they spend their whole threehour day outdoors, in a private fiveacre forest, not only doing all manner of physical activities but also learning much more than “just what nature has to offer”. The school, begun in 2008, runs four days a week. Organizers, one of whom traded in her law practice to help start the school, hope to expand the school week to five days soon.In a time when so many children are being classified as obese (肥胖的) because they watch too much television and play too many video games. These outdoor schools serve as a reminder that children should open their eyes to the nonvirtual (非虚拟的) world around them.12According to the passage, which is NOT the benefit of the Forest Kindergarten?AIt provides enough exercise.BIt helps choose future careers.CIt builds up the immune system.DIt develops problemsolving skills.解析：选B细节理解题。根据第二、三段可知，森林幼儿园能让孩子们很好地锻炼、增强免疫力及培养解决问题的技能。13What can be inferred from the passage?AThe outdoor education is popular in the US.BSchools dont provide outdoor classes on rainy days.CThe Cedarsong Nature School arranges 3hour schooldays.DMost of the European countries have built Forest Kindergartens.解析：选C推理判断题。根据第四段第三句“Students at this school come dressed for the weather, because they spend their whole threehour day outdoors .”可知，在每个上学日里，该学校的学生每天只需要学习3个小时。14Whats the writers attitude towards the outdoor schools?ANeutral. BDisappointed.CNegative. DSupportive.解析：选D作者态度题。根据文章最后一句“These outdoor schools serve as a reminder that children should open their eyes to the nonvirtual (非虚拟的) world around them.”可知，作者对森林幼儿园是持支持态度的。15Whats the writers
