六、阅读单选(每题3分,共30分)
A
The most important holiday in spring, especially for Christians, is Easter. This Christian holiday is not on the same date every year, but it's always on a Sunday. It can be
any Sunday between March 22 and April 25. Many people celebrate Easter by buying new clothes. Children celebrate by hunting for colored eggs that their parents have
hidden around the house. People also give Easter baskets filled with candy and other goodies to one another to celebrate the day.
But the holiday is more than new clothes and good things to eat. On Easter, many people go to church to celebrate Jesus’ resurrection(复活)from the dead. Most people
color Easter eggs. Some people hide them. Others just eat them. But no matter what one does with Easter eggs, they are an important Easter tradition throughout the Western
world.
People from many different cultures celebrate Easter. In both America and Belgium, children look for Easter eggs hidden on lawns and in bushes. In America, children
believe the eggs are hidden by the Easter bunny(兔子). But in Belgium, the hidden eggs are supposed to have fallen from church bells. In Bulgaria(保加利亚),red Easter
eggs are lucky in churches. Bulgarian families also hit these Easter eggs together to see whose is the strongest. The winner looks forward to good fortune that year. Still
dozens of other Easter traditions exist. In parts of Austria, for example, children sing from door to door and are rewarded with colorful eggs.

You see people in movies celebrating a white Christmas in England or the United States. But Christmas in Australia is different.
Australians celebrate the holiday on Dec.25th. It is at the hottest time of the year in Australia. The temperature is usually about 30°C in most cities and can even be over
40°C.There is certainly no white Christmas in Australia.
Because it is so hot, the tradition is to have a lunch outside and to swim in the pool or beach. Most people have a one-week holiday during this time, so they will travel
to meet their family for Christmas lunch. Christmas lunch is usually a big meal of ham, turkey, salad and fresh seafood. Family members all cook something different and
bring it to the big meal. I always enjoy Christmas lunch because there are lots of good cooks in my family. One year my aunt even made a delicious gingerbread house(姜饼
屋) for us to eat as desert.
Children get presents from Santa Claus and are always excited to play with them. It is a fun time to play or swim in the pool with the other members of your family.
The sport of cricket(板球) is very popular in Australia and another tradition is to play a game of cricket in your backyard. I always enjoyed playing with my uncle and
cousins when I was growing up.
So Australia might not have a white Christmas. But it is still a very exciting and fun time of the year.

April Fool’s Day is coming! But do you know how April Fool’s Day comes?
In the sixteenth century in France, the start of the New Year was on April 1st. People celebrated the New Year in the same way as it is today. They held parties and
danced into the late night.
Then in 1562, Pope Gregory introduced a new calendar into the Christian(基督教的)world, and the new year fell on January 1st. Some people didn’t believe the change
in the date, so they celebrated the New Year on April 1st. Others played tricks on them and called them “April fools”.
Today Americans play small tricks on friends on the first day of April. One common trick on April Fool’s Day is pointing down to a friend’s shoe and saying, “Your
shoelace is untied.” School children like to tell a classmate that there are no classes. Then if someone believes the trick, he or she will be called the “April fool”! People play
tricks on each other only because they want to enjoy themselves together. Most jokes are really funny and people play tricks not to hurt anyone but to find happiness.
