After the service, the food is usually given to people in need.When is Harvest Festival?Harvest festivals are traditionally held on or near the Sunday of the Harvest Moon. This is the full Moon that occurs closest to the autumn equinox (about Sept. 23). In two years out of three, the Harvest Moon es in September, but in some years it occurs in October.History of Harvest FestivalHarvest Festival used to be celebrated at the beginning of the Harvest season.

He was raised in a family that had distinguished(区分; 辨别)Americans since colonial days. At 18 years old, T.S.Eliot entered Harvard, and after graduating he went abroad. Then he taught in a boys school briefly before spending eight years in Lioyds Bank in London.T.S.Eliot inspired the musical Cats in the 1980s from his wellknown book Old Possums Book of Practical Cats.He also wrote The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufock in 1915. After 1915, T.S.Eliot wrote such poems as Portrait of a Lady.The Waste Land appeared in 1922. It was considered by many to be his most challenging work. In 1927 Thomas Sterns Eliot became a British subject(国民) and was confirmed in the Church of England.His essays, For Lancelot Andrew(1928) and his poetry, Four Quartets (1943), increasingly reflected this association with a traditional culture. The Rock (1934), his first drama, was a pageant play. This was followed by Murder in the Cathedral( 1935 ), a play dealing with the assassination of Archbishop(主教) Thomas a Becket, who was later praised.In 1948, King George VI bestowed(给予; 赠给)the order of Merit on T. S.Eliot, and in that same year he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature. On January 4,1965 Thomas Sterns Eliot died. Another one of his poems I enjoy is Aunt Helen.4. How many works written by TS.Eliot are mentioned in the passage?A. 7 B. 8 C. 9 D. 105. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Thomas Sterns Eliot was once a teacher in a school.B. Thomas Sterns Eliot only wrote poems in his life.C. Eliot won the Nobel Prize because King George VI bestowed the order of Merit on him.D. Thomas Sterns Eliot spent eight years in London.6. What does the underlined word “assassination” mean?A. Concern B. MurderC. Attention D. Determination7. How old was Thomas Sterns Eliot when he died?A. 34 B. 39C. 60D. 77 C Yinlan looked at the people sitting around the table and smiled with satisfaction. Everyone in her family was there her children, grandchildren, and new great-grandson, just one month old. Her whole family had e to celebrate the Harvest Moon Festival. A couple days days after the Harvest Moon Festival, Yinlan died peacefully in her sleep. Her family was sad but at the same time grateful. They felt happy that they had been able to celebrate the Harvest Moon Festival with her one last time. Everyone said it was remarkable that Yinlan had died just two days after the holiday. Actually, the timing of Yinlans death was not remarkable at all. Recently sociologists (社会学家) studied the death rate among elderly Chinese women in California. They discovered that the death rate drops 35 percent before the Harvest Moon Festival and then rises 35 percent again after the Harvest Moon Festival. Sociologists believe that these changes in death rate show the minds power over the body. The Harvest Moon Festival, when families gather, is important to elderly Chinese women. Apparently some women are able to postpone (推延) their deaths so that they can celebrate the festival one last time. The idea that people can postpone the time of their deaths is not new. Many families tell stories of a relative who held on to life until after an important event. The sociologists work is important because the sociologists studied facts, not stories. The facts the drop and rise in death rates prove that people really can postpone their deaths.8. When did Yilan die?A. Before going to sleep. B. During the Harvest Moon Festival.C. Just before the Harvest Moon Festival.D. Two days after the Harvest Moon Festival.9. The studies by sociologists took place in _.A. AmericanB. ChinaC. Yinlans homeD. Festival grounds10. There are _ generations(代) in Yinlans family.A. one B. two C. three D. four11. The writer tells us the story of Yilan to let us know that _.A. the Harvest Moon Festival is an important festival B. Chinese families often get together to enjoy festival C. families are often sad during the Harvest Moon Festival D. people may be able to put off death for an important event D Edmund Halley was an English scientist who lived over 200 years ago. He studied the observations of ets (彗星) which other scientists had made. The orbit of one particular et was a very difficult mathematical(数学)problem. He could not figure it out. Neither could other scientists who dealt with such problems.However, Halley had a friend named Newton, who was a brilliant mathematician. Newton thought he had already worked out that problem, but he could not find the papers on which he had done it. He told Halley that the orbit of a et had the shape of an ellipse (椭圆).Now Halley set to work.He figured out (解决; 计算出) the orbits of some of the ets that had been observed by scientists.He made a surprising discovery. The ets that had appeared in the years 1531,1607, and 1682 all had the same orbit. Yet their appearances had been 75 to 76 years apart.This seemed very strange to Halley.The different ets followed the same orbit. The more Halley thought about it, the more he thought that there had not been three different ets, as people thought. He decided that they had simply seen the same et three times. The et had gone away and had e back again.It was an astonishing idea! Halley felt certain enough to make a prediction (预言) of what et would happen in the future. He decided that this et would appear in the year 1758. There were 53 years to go before Halleys prediction could be tested. In 1758 the et appeared in the sky. Halley did not see it, for he had died some years before.Ever since then that et has been called Halleys et, in his honor.12. Halley made his discovery _.A. by using the work of other scientists B. by doing experimentsC. by means of his own careful observation D. by chance13. Halley made a surprising,but correct prediction in the year _.A. 1704 B. 1705 C. 1706 D. 170714. This passage in general is about _.A. Halley and other scientists B. the orbit of a etC. Halley and his discovery D. Newton and Halley15. Which of the following is TRUE?A. Edmund Halley was an American scientist. B. Halley made his discovery by doing experiments.C. The orbit of a et had the shape of a circle. D. Newton was a famous mathematician.第二部分 英语知识运用(共两节)第一节 完形填空(共20小题,满分30分)Yesterday, my daughter had to go to work earlier than usual.
