38、 customs and forget our work for a little while.节日和庆祝活动自古以来，(世界)各地都会举行各种各样的节日和庆祝活动。大多数古老的节日会庆祝严寒天气的结束、春季的播种和秋季的收获。有时候，猎人捕到猎物之后会举行庆祝活动。在那个时代，尤其是在寒冷的冬季，如果难以找到食物，人们就会挨饿。今天的节日有很多种起源：有些源于宗教，有些源于季节，也有一些是为了纪念特别的人或事。纪念死者的节日有些节日是为了纪念死者，或者使祖先得到满足，(因为)祖先们有可能回到世上(给人们)提供帮助，也有可能带来危害。在日本的盂兰盆节，人们要扫墓、烧香，以缅怀他们的祖先。他们还
39、点起灯笼，奏响乐曲，因为他们认为这样做可以把祖先引回到世上。在墨西哥，人们在11月初庆祝亡灵节。在这个重要的节庆日子里，人们会吃制成颅骨形状的食物和装点有“骨头”的蛋糕。他们向亡者祭献食物、鲜花和礼品。西方节日万圣节也源自人们古老的信念，认为亡者的灵魂会返回人间。如今它成了孩子们的节日，在这天他们可以装扮一番，去邻居家要糖果。如果邻居不给(他们)糖果。孩子们可能会捉弄他们。纪念人的节日节日也可以是为纪念名人而举行的。中国的端午节(龙舟节)是纪念古代著名诗人屈原的。美国的哥伦布日是纪念克里斯托弗哥伦布发现“新大陆”的日子。在印度，10月2日是纪念帮助印度摆脱英国而获得独立的领袖莫罕达斯甘地的全国
40、性节日。庆祝丰收的节日庆祝收获并表达感恩的节日是非常喜庆的。人们心怀感激，因为过冬的食物已经收集，而且农活已经结束。在欧洲国家，人们常用鲜花和水果来装饰教堂和市政厅，并且聚在一起用餐。有些人可能因为他们的农产品而获奖，比如最大的西瓜或最漂亮的公鸡。中国和日本都有中秋节，这时人们会赏月。在中国，人们还品尝月饼。迎接春天的节日最富有生气而又最重要的节日就是盼望告别冬天、迎来春天的节日。中国人过春节要吃饺子、鱼和肉，可能还要给孩子用红纸包着的压岁钱。(人们)舞龙、狂欢，全家人聚在一起庆祝农历新年。在一些西方国家有非常激动人心的狂欢节，通常在二月，复活节前的40天。这些狂欢节可能包括游行、昼夜在街上跳
41、舞、喧闹的音乐和各式各样五颜六色的服装。复活节是全世界基督教徒的一个重要的宗教性和社会性节日。它庆祝耶稣复活，也庆祝春天和新生命的到来。稍晚些时候，日本的樱花节就到了。(节日里)整个国家到处是(盛开的)樱花，看上去就像是覆盖了一层粉红色的雪。人们喜欢聚在一起吃吃喝喝，开心地玩乐。节日让我们享受生活，为我们的风俗而自豪，并让我们暂时忘却工作。学生用书P101(单独成册) 阅读理解AIt was past midnight when I saw an email that told me that I had been accepted into the International Summer
