Cold air, bringing rain or even snow, easily tears up(破坏) the warmth of the spring within a night(一夜之间).However, with the coming of Guyu-the Grain(谷物) Rain, the blue sky and gentle winds would finally stay. Falling usually on or around April 20 every year, Guyu is the sixth of the 24 solar terms(节气). It means the beginning of a lively summer and people get busy from now on.Sow(播种) grainsThis is an important period of the growth of grains. The ancient Chinese already knew that as Guyu comes, the weather will become warm enough for sowing. The farmers usually catch the chance to plant rice, corn and beans.Hope for safety and harvestFor those living near the sea, they will hold some ceremonies(仪式) on Guyu, hoping for safety as well as harvest during the coming fishing season.Watch the peonyIts also a great time to see the peony(牡丹), which is known as “the Queen of All Flowers” in Chinese culture. As a result, watching peonies becomes one of the most enjoyable activities for many. The flower is said to be the favourite of Empress(女皇) Wu Zetian of the Tang Dynasty, who was the only woman ruler in Chinese history.Pick tea leavesTea leaves picked before Guyu are among the best tea leaves. People believe that the tea leaves picked on the day of Guyu can make eyes clear and drive away bad luck. So the habit of drinking tea at this time of year has become a tradition in some places of China.（1） When does Guyu usually come every year?_（2） Why is Guyu an important time for sowing grains?_（3） Translate the underlined sentence into Chinese._（4） List(列表) activities on Guyu according to the passage (at least two)._（5） Give a proper title to the passage._三、 完型填空。 (共1题；共15分)5. （15分） (2017杭州模拟) 完形填空At the age of twenty, Susan was found with terrible cancer.
