7.The Wife-carrying World Championship has been celebrated in a small town in central Finland since 1992.In 1992,the people of the town decided to restart some long-forgotten traditions.Back in the late 1800s,there was a robber called Rosvo-Ronkainen in that area.He was said to only accept men as members of his gang (帮派)who proved their worth in challenges.At that time,it was also a common practice to steal women from neighboring villages.
This event is becoming increasingly popular.A large number of competitors and journalists from Canada to Finland attend the Wife-carrying World Championship every year.

Along with the Wife-carrying World Championship,there is also a team competition.The distance is the same but three men in the team carry the wife in turns.At the exchange point the carrier has to drink official"wife-carrying drink".Then he may continue the race.A special prize is awarded to the team with the best costumes.

Some foreign friends share their tips on how to spend the Chinese New Year in China:
※"Don't travel during the holidays"is one golden role(61)followed (follow)by some friends for years,especially during Spring Festival as the traffic is heavy.And in China,I always spend Spring Festival Eve with Chinese(62)families (family),eating dumplings,laughing,joking.I love
the Chinese and there are no other people I would rather spend my time(63)with.
※I(64)really (real)love to watch people set off fireworks for the feeling of(65)excitement (excite)and joy!I've never seen so many fireworks in my life!But I do wish people would be more careful,especially with(66)their (them)children.Sometimes I see kids who are too young(67)to play fireworks.
※I(68)was/am impressed (impress)with the Spring Festival gala on CCTV though I don't understand Chinese well.It is one of the most(69)amazing (maze)TV shows from an artistic point of view.What's more,I like to go to temple fairs.I enjoyed some snack food,(70)which was nice for me first couple minutes until my hands started freezing and I could no longer use my chopsticks properly-my fingers were getting numb.
18.Frank told us of his childhood."My dad was a fisherman,and he(36)B the sea.It was  (37)Amaking a living on the sea.He worked hard and would stay out (38)Che caught enough to feed the family."

"Every day he drove me to school.When the old truck rattled (嘎嘎作响) down the road,I would shrink down into the seat hoping to (43)B.When we reached school,he would give me a kiss on the cheek and (44)D me to be a good boy.It was so embarrassing for me.I was  (45)C twelve years old!"
"I (46)A the day I decided I was too old for a goodbye kiss.When he started to lean toward me,I put my hand up and said,‘No,Dad.'It was the first time I had ever talked to him in that (47)B,and he had this (48)B look on his face.I said,‘Dad,I'm too old for a goodbye kiss.'My dad looked at me and his eyes were filled with tears.I had never seen him (49)D.‘You're right,'he said.‘You are a big boy…a man.I won't  (50)Ayou any more.'"
(51)Bbegan to well up in Frank's eyes,"It wasn't long after that when my dad went to sea and never came back.(52)C of the boats stayed in that day because of a coming storm,but not dad.He had a big family to (53)D."
"Guys,you don't know what I would like is to have my dad give me just one more kiss on the cheek,to feel his(54)Cold face,to smell the ocean on him.I wish I had been a man then.(55)AI had been a man,I would never have told my dad I was too old for a goodbye kiss."

12.The more you give to others,the more you reap yourself.When you share what you know,you will find that you grow according to the number of seeds that you sow.Such is the one secret to be happier in life.
Spread cheer and teach others to do the same.People will gather around you to hear your wisdom,and feel your love.They will come to receive your sharing of what is inside you,all around you,and the messages coming from above.
Life is all about giving back.It is not about heartache or lack.Count your blessings every day.Put them in a stack that grows higher and higher,till it sets your spirit on fire with joy!
Life is good when you stand up for what you believe.When you enrich the world with your truth,then you will receive all that is good and wonderful.All that is grand will come to you,too.All it takes is living from your heart to understand how the cycle of giving and receiving works.Ah yes!You will discover endless perks!
For many people today,especially women who are socialized to give of themselves,and told they are selfish if they want to do something for themselves,the cycle of giving and receiving gets blocked.When a person gives and does not receive,then the energy flow gets cut off.
Every person must receive,as well as give.Nature intended for that balance in creating that particular flow.Now why would that giving and receiving be a natural law?Because all people need to open themselves to receiving.In receiving you tell yourself you are worthy and deserving of what life has to offer.

A.Giving is more important than receiving

A.Giving them whatever they want to get.
B.Dancing to the music to amuse them.
C.Sharing whatever you have with them.
D.Spreading cheer and teach others to do the same.
30.For the women who are giving,which sentence is right?C
A.They don't need receive or praise.
B.They are selfish if they want to do something for themselves.
C.They need receiving to encourage their energy to continue giving.
D.They can't understand the secret to be  happier in life.
31.The reason why receiving is important is thatD.
A.we living together is to receive our possessions.
B.life is all about giving back not receiving from others.
C.the more you give to others,the more you reap yourself.
D.you are worthy and deserving of what life has to offer.
19.One Sunday,a picture in the newspaper touched me.A young woman stood in front of a totally destroyed home.A little boy stood beside her with his head (36)B.Holding her skirt tightly was a tiny girl,eyes wide with (37)Aand fear.

I brought three large boxes and placed them on the living room floor.Meghan watched seriously (43)C the boys and I filled one box with canned food.
While I (44)Dour clothes,I encouraged the boys to go through their toys and (45)D some of their less favorite things.Meghan watched(46)B as the boys piled up useless toys in the box.
"I'll help you find something for the little girl,"I said to her.
The boys placed the toys they had (47)A to donate into one of the boxes while I filled the third box with clothes.Meghan walked up with Lucy,her worn,faded,much-loved doll (48)Ctightly to her chest.She (49)D in front of the box,pressed her little face into Lucy's face,gave her a (50)A kiss,then,laid her gently on top of the other toys.
"Oh,honey,"I said."You (51)D to give away Lucy.You love her so much."
Meghan nodded,eyes shining with tears."Lucy makes me happy,Mommy.(52)B she'll make that little girl happy,too."
I stared at Meghan for a long moment,(53)A how I could teach the boys the lesson she had just taught me.
It's easy to give what we don't want any more,but (54)C to give things we cherish to others,isn't it?(55)B,the true spirit of giving is to give with your heart.

16.The pen is more powerful than the sword.There have been many writers who use their pens to write things that were wrong.Mrs.Harriet Beecher Stowe was one of them.

     This book that shook the world was called Uncle Tom's Cabin.There was a time when every English-speaking man,woman,and child had read this novel that did so much to stop slavery.Not many people read it today,but it is still very interesting.The book has shown us how a warm-hearted writer can arouse(唤起) people's sympathies.The author herself had neither been to the Southern States nor seen a slave.The Southern Americans were very angry at the book,which they said did not at all represent the true state of affairs,but the Northern Americans were widely excited over it,and were so inspired by it that they were ready to go to war to set the slaves free.
