For the last 40 years a farmer in England has arranged a special celebration on his farm.Each June, thousands of people travel to a field six miles from Glastonbury, a small town in southwest England. The local population grows from about 10,000 to over 185,000, with many people arriving from abroad during the weekend. Theyre taking part in the Glastonbury Festival, one of the biggest open-air festivals in the world.If you go, you will have the chance to see famous performers and enjoy lots of different activities. There are over 15 stages where you can listen to nearly any music, including jazz, hip-hop, folk and Latin music. . There are many other kinds of performing arts. There is a comedy stage, a cinema tent and a poetry area. You can watch one of Shakespeares plays or have your face painted. You can take part in art activities or learn how to juggle. Children under 12 years old can get in for free. They can watch puppet shows or enjoy a picnic. If you want to celebrate the start of summer in a more traditional way, you can go to the stone circle on a hill above the festival and light a candle or lie down and look at the stars.While the festival is great fun, its not exactly a luxury weekend. It is difficult to travel to and from the festival site on country roads and you can sometimes get trapped in traffic jams for hours. In bad weather, the field can turn into a mud bath. But once you are there, it is an experience of a lifetime.（1）All the activities are held just to celebrate _.

In Chinese, we have the expressions of Boiling a dead pig, and A pig looking in the mirror is still a pig. And in English, there are expressions such as eating like a pig and sweating like a pig. None of them are exactly complimentary.But the truth is that pigs do have some fine qualities（品质）. And theres probably no better time to clear their names than now, for it is the Year of the Pig on Chinese Spring Festival, which falls on Feb. 5 this year.It is true that science long ago proved that pigs arent stupid at all. According to a paper published in 2017 in the International Journal of Comparative Psychology, pigs are mentally and socially similar to dogs and chimpanzees（黑猩猩）. They like to play. They have good long-lastingmemories. And they know the differences between those who treat them well and those who dont.There are lovable pig characters in cartoons too. Peppa Pig, for example, a UK animated television series that began in 2004, has now become one of the most popular cartoons in 180 countries. The four members in the cartoons pig family teach children from all around the world about love, friendship, and the value of family. And in China, the adventures of McDull, a piglet who works hard towards his dreams even though he keeps failing, have been made into films since 2001.People are putting too much emphasis on efficiency and immediate results, but McDull is slow and patient, and not afraid of repeated failures, said McDulls creator Brian Tse when she was promoting the 2009 film McDull, Kung Fu Ding Ding Dong in Beijing. He has a heart of gold.Perhaps these are the qualities of pigs to keep in mind when we celebrate this Chinese New Yeartheir intelligence, cuteness, patience and innocence（纯真）.（1）How many idioms and phrases are mentioned in the whole passage? A . One.B . Two.C . Three.D . Four.（2）Which one is NOT right about pigs? A . Scientist long ago proved that pigs are clever.B . We can say that pigs are patient.C . According to a paper published in 2017, pigs are not as clever as dogs.D . Pigs know the differences between those who treat them well and those who dont.（3）Which of the following about the cartoon Peppa Pig are RIGHT? It is a USA animated television series that began in 2004.It has now become one of the most popular cartoons in 180 countries.Children can learn about love, friendship, and the value of family by watching the cartoonPeppa Pig.A . B . C . D . （4）Which of the following is NOT right? A . McDull is a Chinese cartoon character.B . McDull, the lovable pig, is slow and patient.C . The adventures of McDull have been made into films since 2009.D . Brian Tse is McDulls creator.5. （10分）阅读理解There was a man who had four sons. He wanted his sons to learn to not judge things too quickly. So he sent them each on a quest, in turn, to go and look at a pear tree that was a great distance away. The first son went in the winter, the second in the spring, the third in summer, and the youngest son in the fall.When they had all gone and come back, he called them together to describe what they had seen. The first son said that the tree was ugly, bent, and twisted. The second son said no - it was covered with green buds and full of promise. The third son disagreed, he said it was laden with blossoms that smelled so sweet and looked so beautiful, it was the most graceful thing he had ever seen. The last son disagreed with all of them; he said it was ripe and drooping with fruit, full of life and fulfillment.The man then explained to his sons that they were all right, because they had each seen but one season in the trees life.He told them that you cannot judge a tree, or a person, by only one season, and that the essence of who they are - and the pleasure, joy, and love that come from that life - can only be measured at the end, when all the seasons are up.If you give up when its winter, you will miss the promise of your spring, the beauty of your summer, fulfillment of your fall.

The Nile(尼罗河)is the worlds longest and most famous river. It runs 6,650 kilometers. Crocodiles and hippos(河马)live in its waters. Pyramids built by ancient Egyptians rise along its banks.The main branch of the Nile, the White Nile, starts just above Lake Victoria, the worlds second largest freshwater lake, in east central Africa. Then it flows to the north. At Sudans capital, another great river called the Blue Nile joins the White Nile. Together, they form one very powerful river. Then it goes through Egypts famous Nile Valley before reaching the Mediterranean Sea.Ancient Egypt, the first great African civilization(文明), started along the banks of the Nile more than 5, 000 years ago.
