No matter where you go around the globe, everybody loves to celebrate. And when it comes to
celebration, festivals offer something for everyone.
Mardi Gras (New Orleans, Louisiana)
Also known as Fat Tuesday, Mardi Gras in New Orleans is a cultural event. Though the celebration is
held every year, the festivities last for months. And if you love music, check out the annual Galactic
concert at the worldfamous Tipitina's on Lundi Gras (the day before Mardi Gras).
La Tomatina (Valencia, Spain)
Launched way back in 1944 or 1945, La Tomatina is one of the oldest festivals on our list. It's also
easily the happiest but the messiest, coming off like the world's biggest food fight.
Legend has it that the whole thing started when some local boys joined a parade alongside musicians.
The boys made the performers so angry that they tried to hit the boys, and a vendor's ( 摊 贩 )
vegetable stand fell victim to the incident.
If you go, please follow some simple rules: Don't throw hard objects; squash the tomato before
throwing it; keep a safe distance from tomato trucks and stop in time.
Montreux Jazz Festival (Switzerland)
Founded back in 1967, Montreux is one of the oldest music festivals in the world. It is also the
second largest jazz festival, after the Montreal International Jazz Festival. That Canadian concert
may attract more visitors — around 2 million annually. But Montreux benefits from its pretty
location on the attractive shores of Lake Geneva. The area is particularly beautiful in late June/early
July, when the festival is held.

Cecilia Chiang, whose San Francisco restaurant, the Mandarin, introduced American diners in
the 1960s to the richness and variety of authentic Chinese cuisine, died on Wednesday at her home in
San Francisco.
Ms. Chiang was not a chef, nor was she a likely candidate to run a restaurant. She was born near
Shanghai in 1920 as the seventh daughter in a wealthy family. After her parents died, Cecilia
managed the businesses' finances while still in her teens.
Ms. Chiang came to the United States from China to flee the Japanese during World War Ⅱ ，
traveling nearly 700 miles on foot. Once in San Francisco, she met two Chinese acquaintances who
wanted to open a restaurant. Ms. Chiang agreed to put up large funds. But when the two women quit,
Ms. Chiang found to her horror that the funds were not refundable ( 可 退 还的 ). She took a deep
breath and decided to open the restaurant herself. “I began to think that if I could create a restaurant
with Westernstyle service and the dishes that I was most familiar with — the delicious food of China
— maybe my little restaurant would succeed，” she wrote in her book.
The Mandarin, which was opened in 1962 as a 65seat restaurant, introduced customers to mainly
Sichuan, Shanghai and Canton dishes. The early days were difficult. But little by little, Chinese
diners, and a few Americans, came regularly. Overnight the tables were filled and the restaurant
became a huge success.
Ms. Chiang continued to work as a restaurant consultant into her 90s. “I think I changed what
average people know about Chinese food，” Ms. Chiang wrote.“They didn't know China was such
a big country.”
4．When did Ms. Chiang start to manage the businesses' finances?
A．In the 1920s. B．In the 1930s.
C．In the 1950s. D．In the 1960s.
5．What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about?
A．When Ms. Chiang came to the US.
B．How Ms. Chiang earned her deposit.
C．What Ms. Chiang wrote in her book.
D．Why Ms. Chiang opened her restaurant.
6．What do we know about The Mandarin?
A．It survived the early hardships.
B．It provided all kinds of Chinese dishes.
C．It could seat less than 60 people at first.
D．It attracted many Americans once opened.
7．Which of the following can best describe Ms. Chiang?
A．Smart but stubborn.
B．Devoted and brave.
C．Adventurous but careless.
D．Enthusiastic and ambitious.
C
Audiences may be ready to return. Will they have anything to watch? It is turning out to be a
long pause.
Cinemas across the West closed in March and, despite attempts to reopen in the summer, the box
office has not recovered. From October 9th Cineworld, the world's second largest chain, will
temporarily shut its 536 Regal theaters in America and its 127 British ones. AMC, the biggest, will
cut the opening hours at some Odeon cinemas in Britain.
Early in the pandemic the problem was audiences. In March Disney's “Onward” closed as people
refused to breathe the air with a crowd of strangers. Business got harder when governments ordered
theaters to shut.
As countries have eased restrictions and audiences have prepared to return, cinemas are finding little
to show them. In China, where COVID19 has been effectively brought under control, studios have
resumed pumping out hits. But Hollywood will not risk premiering (首次上映) costly blockbusters
(大片) while many markets, including New York and California, remain closed, and cinemagoers
remain cautious. Most big titles have been postponed. Nine months without income would be
disastrous (灾难性的). America's National Association of Theatre Owners predicts that seven out of
ten small or mediumsized cinema companies will go bust ( 破产), which it has urged Congress to
approve.
Both AMC and Cineworld are likely to stop a contract or file for going bust, believes Moody's, a
ratings agency; AMC could run out of cash by January. Share prices of Western operators have
dropped sharply this year, and are now worth a fifth as much as five years ago. Chinese ones have
done better.
8．Which company will reduce the opening hours in Britain?
A．Cineworld. B．Odeon.
C．AMC. D．Hollywood.
9．What made the cinema business get harder?
A．Governments' restriction.
B．Films' attraction.
C．Audiences' attitude.
D．Operators' signing contracts.
10．What is the situation in Hollywood?
A．They are applying for going bust.
B．They are complained by the audiences.
C．They will offer the audience more big titles.
D．They put off premiering most blockbusters.
11．What does the text mainly talk about?
A．A few famous film companies.
B．COVID19's effect on cinemas.
C．The global economic situation.
D．Audiences' desiring for films.

Wearing a caveman mask, Dr. John Marzluff walks across the campus at the University of
Washington in Seattle. Crows (乌鸦) circle and squawk (尖叫), diving at him and going away.
Beneath the mask, he smiles. Days before he and his students, wearing caveman masks, rapped them
and placed colored plastic bands on their legs. Then they released the unhappy birds. When the
researchers wandered around campus without the masks, the crows they had caught and banded did
not react to them. But when the same humans walked by while wearing the masks, the crows scolded
loudly and dived at their “enemies”．
At first, only the banded birds reacted aggressively to the people in masks. But in later tests more and
more crows joined in, and even when the banded birds were not around. “Crows think and dream,
fight and play, reason and take risks，” he says. “Their antics confuse us.”
This led him to study how crows' brains work. He and his students wore one type of mask as they
