But have the holidays become too materialistic and more about the gifts than the feelings behind them?Throughout the world, many cultures mark holidays with gifts and food. Holiday traditions bring people together and allow us to feel a part of family and community. The gifts and food that we share are all about expressing a sense of appreciation and joy. The gifts of a few generations ago were probably more common and homemade. Even the people who could afford expensive presents probably didn't do as much buying and spending as we do today.But with our culture growing more commercial, sometimes the original meaning behind the tradition gets lost. Not only is the pressure on spending money on the right present, but many people also find that when gifts become the focus of a holiday, it puts too much emphasis on receiving. It's too easy to have high expectations of what's in that beautifully wrapped box-and that can set anyone up for disappointment. No wonder we often hear about people having the"holiday blues”feeling sad or empty.Not all people think the holidays are too materialistic, of course. Most appreciate the traditional aspects of the holidays. And some love shopping and are just fine with al 1 the giving and receiving. But if you, re feeling a little empty about the holidays, what can you do? One key to a relaxing and meaningful holiday is finding what works best for you, both in terms of gift giving and other holiday traditions. Putting some thought into what the holidays mean to you and then focusing your energies on those aspects that leave you feeling most satisfied can help you let go of the stuff that may be stressing you out.1、What can we learn about the holiday gifts generations ago?A. They were valueless.B. They were highly valued.C. They were given little attention.D. They were more about expressing feelings.2、What is the result of focusing too much on receiving?A. Receivers are often disappointed.B. Gifts become the focus of holidays.C - Our culture grows more commercial.D , Much more money was spent on gifts.3、According to the text, how can we make holidays more meaningful?A. Avoiding giving and receiving gifts.B. Figuring out your real expectations.C. Doing some shopping in the holidays.D. Putting more thought into the gifts to give.4、What can be the best title for the text?A. The Changes in Giving GiftsB. What Stresses You out on Holidays?C. Are the Holidays Too Materialistic?D. The Development of Holiday TraditionsText 3The British custom of driving on the left side of the road isn't a sign of eccentricity一there's actually a very sensible reason for it.Originally, almost everybody travelled on the left side of the road. For Medieval swordsmen on horseback, it made sense to keep to the left to have their right arms closer to their opponents. Mounting and dismounting horses were also easier from the left side, and safer done by the side of the road than in the center.So perhaps the question here should be, why did people stop travelling on the left?Things changed in the late 1700s when large carriages pulled by several pairs of horses were used to transport farm products in France and the United States. In the absence of a driver's seat inside the carriage, the driver sat on the rear left horse, with his right arm free to use his whip to keep the horses moving. Since he was sitting on the left, he wanted other vehicles to pass on his left, so he kept to the right side of the road.The British Government refused to give up their left-hand driving ways. Meanwhile post-revolution France, under their left-handed ruler Napoleon, stuck to a permanent move to the right side of the road. As the British and the French were yielding their power across the globe, they insisted that the countries they occupied drive like them. This explains why former British colonies such as Australia, New Zealand and India drive on the left, while former French colonies like Algeria drive on the right.When Henry Ford made his Model T in 1908, the driver's seat was on the left, meaning that for Americans, cars would have to drive on the right side of the road to allow front and back passengers to exit the car onto the sideway. This influenced a change in many countries, such as Canada, Italy and Spain. However, British drivers remain on the left, and this is highly unlikely to change.1> It can be inferred from Paragraph 2 that in Middle Ages.A. people always got on horses from the left sideB. people all walked and rode on the left of the roadC , people never got off horses in the center of the roadD. swordsmen felt safer travelling on the left of the road2、Why did people start travelling on the right?A. They used large carriages to transport farm products.B. They had to hold their whips with their right hands.C. They wanted other carriages to pass on their left.D. They were forced to sit on the back left horse.3、According to the passage, which of the following keep to the left side of the road?A. Russia. B. India.C. Spain. D. Algeria.4、Why does the author mention Model T in the last paragraph?A. To introduce a world-famous make of American cars.B. To stress its role in changing the custom of driving.C. To describe its safest design for passengers.D. To explain why the British won't change.Text 4Meet big brother Blue and his sisters Meadow and Little Willow,a family of three blind cats that just got adopted by the family Catherine Magno.Their story starts just before the Christmas of 2014 when the kittens（ 猫）were found in an abandoned house in Dubai.By then they had already lost their sight due to a cat flu that was left untreated by their previous （先前的） owner.After that they came to an animal home.At some point,brother Blue almost got adopted by the previous ownefs neighbor,but the poor confused cat couldn't bear living without his sisters and cried all night while searching for them.Soon they were all united in the animal home until the important night of 19 February 2015,when Catherine took them under her wing.nI had zero experience having adopted my first ever rescue kitten just a couple of months ago,"Catherine said. nBut their story touched my heart so much that I couldn*t bear the thought of them being put in a cage for a very long time or even worse.1'Catherine was worried about the special needs of her new pet friends:"My worry was that it's going to not only be challenging but also require a lot of adjustments on my partbut apparently it wasn't that much different.
