社会文化类A(2018山西太原3月模拟，B)Today we talk about a time when half the world is waking from the dark, cold winter months. Spring! We often describe “spring” as a time of rebirth, renewal and awakening. Many trees are blossoming and early flowers are pushing through the earth. Things are coming to life!But the word “spring” is not just a season. It is also a verb that means something going on or coming out quickly. When you put “spring” and “life” together, you will get “spring to life”This expression means something suddenly becomes very active or perhaps seems more alive! You may “spring to life” after hearing that a distant friend will be visiting you. Or maybe your favorite soccer team finally “sprang to life” in the second half, played well and won the match.Now, besides being a season and a verb, the noun “spring” refers to a metal coil(线圈) that is wound tightly. When the coil unwinds, it often jumps. So, we often say a person “has a spring in his step” if he is lively and active. He might even appear to jump, or bounce a little when he walks.There is another way we use “spring” as a description. In the case of a “spring chicken”，“spring” means young.However, “spring chicken” is also an informal and humorous way to refer to someone who is young. So, we use this expression in the negative form, as in “no spring chicken”. For example, lets say you know an 85yearold man who decides to run a marathon, even though he has never exercised before. You could say, “Thats amazing! After all, hes no spring chicken.”But be careful when using this expression. It could be a little disrespectful. Lets say your boss shows you a picture of his wife, and you say，“Wow, shes no spring chicken.”That response would be disrespectful and a bad career move.1.What does “spring” mean in the expression “spring to life”？AThe season after winter.BBeing young and healthy.CA tightly wound metal coil.DTo occur or appear quickly.2How does someone feel when he “has a spring in his step”？AAngry.
