16.根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项.选项中有两项为多余选项.Spring festival is the most important holiday for Chinese people.(36)E The arrangements they have to make for family reunions,buying necessities and preparing food keep them busy throughout the holiday.With the country's economic development and globalization,as it is celebrated today,Spring Festival has undergone many changes.
(37)C People could not get good food they desired in earlier times,but three decades of economic growth has ensured that most people in China can enjoy good meals whenever they want to.Some people suffer from obesity and other health problems associated with extreme eating.
In the past,Spring Festival celebrations were limited to events,such as songs and dances,dragon or lion dances or fireworks.(38)A But economic development and urbanization (城市化)seems to have weakened the social links among people.Many,especially those living in cities,are not interested in celebrating the festival with people they hardly know.
(39)D In the past,people used to visit relatives and friends with gifts and lots of good wishes.Today,many people especially the youth,use their cell phones or the Internet to send their good wishes and even"gifts".Some may say this is sign that people have become less caring about their near and dear ones,but we should see this development as a time-and energy-saving exercise brought by the information age.
Also we can see,some people have started praying to God or the Buddha for a career promotion or more chances instead of for a long life or a fortune of their family.However,the number of such people is decreasing now.(40)G
