In an ancient temple, an impressive feast is held for the local macaque monkeys（猕猴）.After the ceremony，the furry guests of honor begin to enter the temple. Sheets are then pulled from tables and towers which feature a bright and dazzling pile of fruits, vegetables, candies, and even ice cream! Just come to watch these precious animals feed on the food happily. Actually it sounds like a party to us too. El Colacho, Spain This strange festival actually dates all the way back to 1620. Babies that are under 1 year of age are all welcome to participate. These babies are laid out on mattresses（褥垫）in the middle of the procession（队伍）route. Men dressed as devils will then wait for the beat of a drum to signal they should begin. Holding whips, they make their way around the route, jumping over each mattress with the baby on it. Locals feel that the event will bring their children health, luck, and guard them against evil spirits. Cheese Rolling Festival, England When it was first started, locals of the English town of Brock worth, Gloucestershire would gather at Cooper's Hill. Nowadays, this festival attracts competitors from all over the world every May. From the very top, a 3-4 kg wheel of cheese is sent rolling down the hill. Participants take off after it, trying to catch the speeding cheese wheel. If nobody manages to catch the rolling cheese, the first person to cross the finish line would be the winner. The prize is the wheel of cheese, of course. The trip after the cheese is so difficult that doctors wait at the bottom to provide first aid to unlucky participants in need. 21.What is exactly Monkey Buffet Festival?

In December,1996, the Buddha was included by UNESCO on the list of the World Heritage List. Facing the river，the Buddha has symmetrical（对称的）posture and looks which have been beautifully captured in its solemn（庄严的）stillness. The statue was begun in the year 713 in the Tang Dynasty, and finished in the year 803. The Buddha is 71 meters high. And its 8-meter-long instep（脚背）is big enough for one hundred people to sit on and the 28-meter-wide shoulder is large enough to be a basketball playground. It was a monk called Hai Tong who initiated the project. His concern was for the safety of the ordinary people who earned their living around the joint of the three rivers. Tempestuous and wild waters brought out numerous boat accidents and the simple people put the disaster down to the presence of a water spirit. So Hai Tong decided to carve a giant statue beside the river thinking that the Buddha would bring the water spirit under control. Besides, the fallen stones dropped during the carving would reduce the water force there. After 20 years' begging from door to door, he finally collected enough money for the plan. When some local government officials tried to get this amount of money, Hai Tong said that they could get his eyeballs but not the money raised for the Buddha. After he dug out his eyeballs, these officials ran away in fear. The project was half done when long-suffering Hai Tong passed away，and two of his disciples（门徒）continued the work. After a total of 90 years' hard work, the project was eventually accomplished. Having such a long history， the Buddha was nearly destroyed by the erosion（侵蚀）of wind and rain. And with its worldwide fame, the renovation of the Buddha has received extensive attention both at home and abroad. Then in 1963 the Chinese government began the repairing work under the instructions of experts from UNESCO. And at present, the maintenance work is still in progress. 24.What was Hai Tong's purpose to build the statue? A.To gain fame. C.To respect the water spirit. B.To spread Buddhism. D.To protect local people. 25.How did Hai Tong fund the project? A. By begging for money. C.By asking the government. B.By working on the river. D.By building businesses. 26.Which word can best describe Hai Tong? A.Generous. B.Social. C.Devoted. D.Cruel. 27.Which column of a newspaper does this passage belong to? A.Innovation. C.Policy watch. B.Art and culture. D.Forum trends. C From checking social media every minute to being lost in computer games, we tend to overuse technology. “For many people, a moment without your phone or laptop in sight can feel like a lifetime,” the Daily Mail commented. A computer model called Mindy may persuade many people to think twice. A team from the US-based company Toll Free Forwarding built a three-d
