The Spring Festival is regarded as the most important festival for Chinese people and an occasion for all family members to get together,‎ ‎ like Christmas in the West. But many traditional customs accompanying the Spring Festival, however, have weakened in practice.‎ Setting off fireworks was once the most typical custom of the Spring Festival. People thought the sputtering (爆裂) sound could help drive away evil spirits. However, the activity has been completely or partially forbidden in big cities for years as the government has taken security, noise and pollution factors into consideration.‎ ‎“In recent years, some cities have begun to allow people to light fireworks during limited hours at the Spring Festival, surrendering to (屈从于) public demand. Respecting folk traditions is a gesture of respect toward public opinion，” said Zhou Xing, a folklore researcher.‎ ‎“As people gain more income and it becomes easier to buy daily goods, the New Year holiday is just like any other. After long workdays, many people use the New Year holiday to take a rest, rather than visiting friends and neighbors. The process of making and enjoying the family dinner on Spring Festival Eve is the most important thing. However, many families would like to eat out to save time and energy，” said Li Shunzhi, a resident of Harbin, Heilongjiang.‎ ‎“I enjoy the holidays very much in the countryside. My family has been preparing for the Spring Festival more than two weeks before the holiday, cleaning the house, buying holiday goods and decorating the house with paper cuttings. On New Year's Eve, the whole family stays up to see the New Year in, and in the days to follow, a series of activities such as lion dancing, dragon lantern dancing, lantern festivals and temple fairs will be held. Without the ancient traditions, the holiday is nothing to us，” said Zhang Hui, from Hebei.‎ 语篇解读：‎ 本文主要介绍了中国春节的传统习俗在逐渐消失的现象以及人们的不同观点。‎ ‎1．Which of the following is WRONG according to the passage?‎ A．Setting off fireworks has been forbidden in some big cities for years.‎ B．Nowadays, people can light fireworks in some cities at the Spring Festival.‎ C．People believe that the sound of fireworks can drive away evil spirits.‎ D．In the past, setting off fireworks couldn't be seen almost anywhere.‎ ‎[解析]　细节理解题。根据第二段的第一句“Setting off fireworks was once the most typical custom of the Spring Festival”可知，过去放鞭炮是过春节最典型的传统习俗，应该到处可见，故选D。‎ ‎[答案]　D ‎2．What Li Shunzhi said implies __________.‎ A．what people do during the festival now is different from the past B．people would like to have the family dinner on Spring Festival Eve C．people prefer to visit friends and neighbors rather than take a rest D．the New Year holiday is just like any other day ‎[解析]　细节理解题。根据第四段的整体内容可推知，哈尔滨的一位居民所说的这段话是在感慨今昔过年的差异，故选A。‎ ‎[答案]　A ‎3．What can we learn from the last paragraph?‎ A．Zhang Hui often spends two weeks preparing for the Spring Festival.‎ B．Zhang Hui is used to spending the Spring Festival with his family.‎ C．Zhang Hui always takes part in a series of activities after the Spring Festival.‎ D．Zhang Hui lives in the urban area.‎ ‎[解析]　推理判断题。根据最后一段的“I enjoy the holidays very much in the countryside”和“Without the ancient traditions, the holiday is nothing to us”以及本段的整体内容可推知，张惠习惯和家人一起过春节，故选B。‎ ‎[答案]　B ‎4．What does the whole passage show?‎ A．The Spring Festival is as lively as before.‎ B．The Spring Festival is outdated now.‎ C．The Spring Festival is losing its qualities.‎ D．The Spring Festival in China is more important than Christmas in the West.‎ ‎[解析]　推理判断题。根据第一段的最后一句“But many traditional customs accompanying the Spring Festival, however, have weakened in practice”并结合全文的整体内容可推知，本文主要讲述了中国春节逐渐失去年味这一现象，故选C。‎ ‎[答案]　C Ⅳ.完形填空 ‎(2017·河南、河北、山西、湖南、江西、安徽省七所名校高三联考)For me, two of the loveliest words in English are “Life persists”．‎ I ____1____ them years ago as a college student, sitting in the library, ____2____， working on a paper.
