Countries around the world ring in the new year with unique customs and traditions, often carried out at the strike of midnight. We rounded up ways to bring international New Year’s Eve experiences to you.
Japan: Eat toshikoshi soba.
Shiwasu is the end-of-the-year period in Japan, filled by many traditions like traveling to see family and thoroughly cleaning your home. To celebrate New Year’s Eve, people eat toshikoshi soba, which can symbolize having a long and lucky life along with a clean break from the year.
Spain: Eat 12 grapes.
The tradition of eating grapes for good luck began in Spain, but it is now practised around the world. When the clock starts ringing at midnight, eat one grape with each ring. It’s even luckier if you’re wearing special New Year’s Eve underwear while eating your grapes. A pair of red underwear can bring you a new year of love, while yellow may bring joy and good luck.
Denmark: Jump off a chair.
In Denmark, one does not simply let the new year happen. You go on the offense(讨厌的东西) and jump into it. Just before midnight, stop what you’re doing and get on a chair to do the jump like a Dane would. Should you forget to jump, it’s said that you’ll bring bad luck for the following year, so please, we are begging you—do not forget to jump.
Russia: Burn, then drink, your wishes.
After a year of unrealized dreams and plans, set your sights on a fresh start with this Russian tradition. Before midnight, write down your wishes for 2023 on a piece of paper, then light the paper on fire. Once it’s stopped burning, sprinkle(洒) the wish-filled ashes into a glass of wine and drink up after the clock strikes midnight.

B
A reentry capsule(太空舱)carrying the crew —— Chen Dong, Liu Yang and Cai Xuzhe —— touched down on Earth at the Dongfeng Landing Site in northwestern China’s Gobi Desert after flying nine hours. This has become the first time that Chinese astronauts have returned to Earth at night, which meant low temperatures and low visibility. Many technologies were developed to make sure the Shenzhou - 14 crewed spaceship went back safely.
The temperatures can be tricky. From the moment the spaceship separated from the space station on the way home, it has to start its own thermal (热 的) control system to keep the temperature between 17 and 25 degrees, an ideal condition for the astronauts. When the spaceship enters Earth’ atmosphere, it can cause temperatures of over 1, 000 degree Celsius, so the ship has a heat shield on its bottom to protect itself from the high temperature.
High efficient communication is another promise of the safe return. The ground teams including control center in Beijing, landing site and rescue teams use the BeiDou Navigation Satellite System. The rescue helicopters also have a smart system to help predict the path of the reentry capsule during landing.
When the spaceship is 10 kilometers above the ground, the three parachutes (降落伞) will open one after another. The size of the parachutes will expand from only several square meters to over 1, 000 square meters, gradually reducing the spaceship speed from 200 meters per second to seven meters per second, which protects astronauts from gravity force overload. “It’s like when we’re driving, we need to slow down gradually, ”said Rong Wei, chief designer of manned spaceship at the 5th Academy of Aerospace Science and Technology Group, At the same time, the engine will be ready for a soft landing.；
4. Why was Shenzhou- 14 spaceship’s returning different than before
A．Because the landing site is in the Desert.
B．Because there are less astronauts in Shenzhou- 14.
C．Because the returning time was put off.
D．Because it was cold and dark outside.；
5. What do we know about the temperature change in the capsule
A．It was controlled to fit astronauts’ condition.
B．It was the highest at the very beginning.
C．It went to the frozen point in the atmosphere.
D．It kept dropping before starting the control system.；
6. What is the purpose of using the BeiDou Navigation Satellite System
A．To design the best landing spot. B．To assure the location of the capsule.
C．To control the temperature in capsule. D．To send orders from the capsule.；
7. What is the main idea of the last paragraph
A．How the engine expanded parachutes. B．How the gravity force influenced landing.
C．How the landing parachutes worked. D．How astronauts controlled the landing.
C
Festivals are celebrated all around the world. They have a wide range of origins, such as the seasons of the year, religions, famous figures, and important events. Every festival has its different customs and unique charms. However, no matter how different they may seem, all over the world, the spirit of sharing joy, gratitude, love, or peace is common in all festivals.
Of all the traditional festivals, the harvest festival can be found in almost every culture. This important agricultural festival takes place after all the crops have been gathered in. People celebrate to show that they are grateful for the year’s supply of food. In ancient Egypt, the harvest festival was celebrated during the springtime — the Egyptian harvest season. It featured a parade and a great feast with music, dancing, and sports. Today, in some European countries, people decorate churches and town halls with flowers and fruit, and get together to celebrate over a meal. During the Mid-Autumn Festival in China, families gather to admire the shining moon and enjoy delicious moon cakes.
Customs play a significant role in festivals, but sometimes they can change over time. With the development of modern society and the spread of new ideas, some traditions may fade away and others may be established. One example is the typical Chinese Spring Festival custom of lighting firecrackers to drive away the evil spirits and celebrate the new year. Nowadays, many big cities have given up this custom in order to avoid air pollution. Another example is Halloween, which slowly became an exciting festival for children, in spite of its religious origins.
Festivals are becoming more and more commercial, with businesses taking advantage of the celebrations. Online shopping websites and social media apps have made it much easier for the public to spend more on gifts for their loved ones. Some believe festivals should not be commercialized, while others believe the increase in spending is good for the economy and public happiness.
Festivals are an important part of society. They reflect people’s wishes, beliefs, faiths, and attitudes towards life. They are occasions that allow us to relax and enjoy life, and forget about our work for a little while. They help us understand where we came from, who we are, and what to appreciate. And if you study festivals carefully, you may be surprised to find that different cultures actually have a lot in common after all.；
8. Why do people in different cultures celebrate the harvest festival
A．It’s tradition in their religion.
B．It’s a only custom in their culture.
C．It’s a way to express their appreciation and cheers.
D．It’s a chance for people to enjoy themselves together.；
9. How did some festivals change over time according to the passage
A．Fireworks can’t drive the evil spirits away.
B．Festivals play an important role in commerce.
C．People share information faster than before with society developing.
D．People get gifts easier than before due to the increase of the economy.；
10. What’s the writer’s attitude towards the commercialization of festivals
A．Neutral. B．Doubtful. C．Supportive. D．Disapproving.；
11. Which statement is NOT true according to the passage
A．Almost every culture celebrates harvest festival.
B．Festivals are a reflection of people’s outlook on life and values.
C．Festivals have something in common with each other in different cultures.
D．The religious origins of Halloween have disappeared.

Warren Buffett’s father told him not to go into securities (证券). Oprah was warned that moving to Chicago would destroy her career. These stories of famous people being told not to do the very thing that later made them hugely successful are entertaining, but they also show a larger point. Bad advice is very common.
As investor Paul Graham has said, “When experts are wrong, it’s often because they’re experts on an earlier version of the world.”
In a New York Times article, Wharton professor Adam Grant offers a simple prescription-stop giving advice. Wait, what Doesn’t other people’s advice help improve our decisions Of course they do, but as Grant points out, giving your advice isn’t the same as saying, “You should do this...”
“When people come to us for advice, we can stop ourselves from giving them a suggestion immediately,” he, well, advises. “People seldom need to hear our conclusion. They benefit from hearing our thought process and our view on the criteria (标准) for the matter. The most useful advice doesn’t tell us what to do clearly and exactly; it helps people see blind spots in their thinking.”
You may want to offer an example from your own life to explain your way of thinking, Grant continues, but “make sure to explain that it mayor may not be suitable for them.”
Each of us has our ow unique set of talents, fears, values and limits. When someone comes to you for advice, it’s near impossible to get a full picture of theirs. That means its near impossible to tell them what they should do. Therefore, advice should not mean “telling people what to do.” Instead, provide a framework (框架) for making the decision. That way advice seekers can put their own variables (变量) into your system and see what answer it gives. This also offers them a chance to develop their own decision-making muscles.
Showing someone how to think through a problem for themselves beats telling them the right answer almost every time.；
12. Why does the author mention the stories of Buffett and Oprah
A．To introduce a topic. B．To explain a rule. C．To give a reason. D．To make a comparison.；
13. Why do experts sometimes give bad advice according to Paul Graham
A．They don’t live in a normal way. B．They hesitate to make early decisions.
C．They have forgotten their earlier experience. D．They base their advice on previous knowledge.；
14. What does the underlined word “prescription” in Paragraph 3 mean
A．System. B．Suggestion. C．Argument. D．Effect.；
15. What does the author suggest on giving others good advice
A．Offering them guidance on how to develop their talents.
B．Finding a good chance to tell them what they should do.
C．Reminding them of the importance of making right decisions directly.
D．Helping them develop a more complete way to consider their choices.

How to Have an Attractive Personality
Being attractive comes more from your personality than your appearance, and demonstrating an attractive personality is key to having lasting relationships. 16 The following tips help foster your ability to fascinate others.
Laugh at yourself. If you make a fool of yourself, laugh at yourself instead of feeling embarrassed. It shows that you’re comfortable in your skin. A sense of humor makes someone more engaging and delightful to be with. 17 It is a great ice-breaker or stress reliever, but don’t ruin a serious conversation with inappropriate jokes.
Speak sincerely. Tell people the truth. If you can’t commit to something, it’s better to be honest about it than to have to tell them last minute that you can’t make it. When people ask for your opinion, you should be honest. 18 For instance, if you don’t like your friend’s shirt, respond with, “I really like you in blue instead,” rather than, “I hate it, it’s ugly.”
19 If you see value in making others laugh and keep yourself positive, you’ll be a happier person, making others drawn to you as a result. A great way to remind you to laugh more is to have daily jokes on your phone or email. Set them for a time of day when you notice yourself start to feel drained.
Have confidence in your body. You don’t have to have the “perfect body” to be confident in it. People will be more attracted to you if you dress well and carry yourself well. If you need a little boost, place posters around your mirror that remind you of the charming parts of your body. 20
A．Speak in a positive way.
B．Make laughing a priority.
C．Remember, there is a time and place for humor.
D．There is difference between being frank and rude, though.
E．Focus on these rather than what you’re self-conscious about.
F．Actually, developing engaging personalities is not that far out of reach.
G．But having charming appearance is only skin-deep and far from enough.

One 31 why a lot of people feel less than 100% fit is that they don’t drink enough water. You need to drink two liters(升) a day — and water 32 water, not tea, coffee or sugary drinks.
Keeping fit is fun. However, a lot of people think it’s boring to go jogging or cycling. They just want to 33 their food. Well, of course, it’s fine to have cakes and ice cream, but not every day! I would say we like what our bodies 34 and if you eat more healthy food, over time, you might find yourself wanting to eat them more than anything else. Try it, I think you’ll be 35 !

Most English learners want 36 (become) fluent English speakers. In fact, many learners 37 (consider) the goal of being fluent since they started to learn English. Learning a foreign language can and should feel like a never-ending journey. Unluckily, many English learners give up along the way, because they feel that they will never achieve 38 (they) goal of becoming “fluent” in spoken English.
So some learners, fluency means 39 (have) perfect pronunciation. They are surprised to hear that accent (口音) is not the key 40 fluency. English speakers all over the world have different accents yet understand each other quite easily. Pronunciation is the key part of oral fluency, however. Fluent speakers are easily understood, because they can 41 (clear) produce the sounds of English. They have also mastered intonation (语调), linking and stress, so they sound 42 (nature) when they speak.
Some English learners don’t require oral fluency, 43 they do need to achieve a high level of written English for the purpose of standardized testing. These 44 (student) may need to focus on grammar rules and vocabulary to get high grades, 45 will help them enter a good school.

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My husband and I got to experience a total stranger's kindness and generosity first-hand during a 10-day trip across the High Atlas Mountains and the Sahara Desert.
On our second-to-last day in Morocco, we happily took a trip to Essaouira, an old and beautiful seaside town on the Atlantic. During the journey there, we stopped at an Argan co-operative（合作社）, where we got to taste some Argan oil and honey. After that, we headed where we stayed. We arrived at our small guesthouse in Essaouira at around dinnertime, and on our way to a local restaurants my husband started to feel unwell. He went back to our guesthouse while I had dinner with some friends.
When I got back to our guesthouse after dinner, I found my husband sitting on the bathroom floor, looking very pale. He had been sick about six times in an hour. He spent the rest of the night in the bathroom, getting very familiar with the house's pipe. Our main suspect was the Argan honey—it probably didn't agree with him.
At about 6 a. m., my husband finally managed to leave the bathroom and crawl into bed. He was very weak and dehydrated（脱水的），so I went down to the reception to buy a bottle of water. When I got to the lobby（门厅）,I found a young man behind the desk, who didn't look older than 18, and explained to him that my husband was sick and I needed to buy some bottled water for him.
Our house was very small and basic and didn't have a restaurant or cafe. The young man informed me that they didn't sell any drinks at the house, so I asked him where the nearest shop was.
I looked out the window and my heart started to race. I didn't fancy risking going into the unfamiliar streets of the Medina in the dark, all by myself. In fact, I was afraid of it.
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右；

Instead of giving me directions to the nearest shop, the young man asked me to wait for him there.

The School Sports Carnival
With the purpose of helping students have a healthy body, our school held the sports carnival last Thursday and Friday on the playground.
On the morning of Thursday, we had the opening ceremony of the sports Festival. Each class gave a one minute wonderful performance. After that, we had an exciting sports meeting. The relay races were the most exciting games. Everyone cheered for the competitors as their class team scored.
We were pleased to have such activities and it made us fully realize the importance of team spirit and persistence.
（Ⅱ）
Instead of giving me directions to the nearest shop, the young man asked me to wait for him there. He popped outside and disappeared in the dark quickly. I was wondering what he would do when he re appeared in about 15 minutes, out of breath and carrying a large bottle of water. You can' t imagine the relief that washed over me when I saw him, He gave me the bottle and asked me to give my husband some water quickly.
I handed him a 50 Dirham note (about 5 EUR) for the water. But he wouldn't accept any money for it despite my insistence. I was so thankful for that small gesture of kindness from a total stranger on a helpless night. I had been up all night worrying about my husband. The last thing I wanted to do was to walk through unfamiliar streets in the dark.
