阅读理解 While popular in the US，the April Fool’s Day tradition is even more popular in European countries，such as France and Great Britain．Although the roots of the traditional tricking are unclear，the French and the British both have their own stories about the origin of the celebration． One story holds that the first April Fool’s Day was on April 1 of the year when the king of France introduced the new calendar．This new system placed the day that had formerly been the first day of a new year on April l．Many people were not used to the new calendar and continued(继续)to celebrate New Year’s Day on what had become the first day of April．Thus，they became the first April Fools．Others began to give funny gifts on the day to laugh at the fools who continued to celebrate the New Year on April 1． An English story about the day，however，says that it began sometime during the 1200s．At the time，King John was in the habit of making roads out of the paths he most often walked along．The people of one particular farm village were aware of this．To avoid having their green grasslands and pastures(牧场)disturbed by one of the king’s roads，they built a fence that prevented the king from walking through their countryside． The king sent a group of messengers(使者)to inform the villagers that they must remove the fence．Upon hearing that the king was planning to do this，however，the villagers developed a plan of their own．When the king’s messengers arrived，they were met by the villagers pretending to be mad．The people just throw things and ran around wildly．The messengers were surprised by this and reported to King John that these people were so mad that there was no necessity of punishing them．So，the villagers saved their farmland by tricking the king．In Great Britain，tradition only allows April Fool’s tricks from midnight to noon on April l．Those who try to play tricks in the afternoon become the fools themselves． 1.Which country has the origin of the celebration of April Fool’s Day？ A．Japan． B．France． C．Great Britain． D．Both B and C． 2.When was the first April Fool’s Day？ A．It was on April lst． B．It was on April 2nd． C．It was on March lst． D．It was on May lst． 3.Why did French people become the first April Fools？ A．Because they were stupid． B．Because they were not used to the new calendar and continued to celebrate New Year’s Day on what had become the first day of April． C．Because they were happy to become the first April Fools． D．Because they were given funny gifts on the day． 4.The underlined word“avoid”probably means“________”in Chinese． A．加强 B．倡议 C．避免 D．建造 5.From the passage we can know that________． A．April Fool’s Day is very popular in Asian countries B．according to the English story，April Fool’s Day began sometime during the 1300s C．according to the English story，King John of England was in the habit of making a building D．according to the English story，the citizens of one particular farm village were against what the king did

阅读理解 (2014广州) In early November of 1503，during Christopher Columbus’s fourth and final trip to America，his ship was seriously damaged in a storm．Columbus and his men had to live on a small island for several months while they tried to repair their ship and return to Spain． At first，the local people on the island were very kind to the European visitors，giving them allthe food and clothes they needed to survive．However，as the months passed，the local people became more and more unhappy with their guests，who were tricking and stealing from them．Finally the locals decided to stop helping．Without food or any way to leave the island，Columbus’s group was soon in serious trouble． Luckily for Columbus，he had a book about the stars and planets on his ship．It described the movements of all the objects in the night sky．The book，written by a well－known German scientist，said there would be a total lunar eclipse(月食)on the evening of February 29，1504 and how long it would last． Columbus worked out the difference in time between Germ any and North America．He then had a meeting with the local leaders just before the eclipse would take place．In this meeting，Columbus told them his god was angry because the local people were no longer giving food．So his god would take away the moon to punish them．The moment Columbus finished talking，just as he had planned，the moon began disappearing． The local leaders grew frightened and quickly agreed to provide Columbus with food and anything else he wanted．But first，Columbus’s god had to return the moon．Columbus told them he would have to discuss the idea with his god on his ship．Knowing the moon would stay completely hidden for about 48 minutes，Columbus returned just before the moon began to reappear．From that day on，until they finally left，Columbus and his men no longer had any trouble getting the food they needed． 1.At first，the local people helped Columbus and his men by________． A．giving them food B．building a house for them C．repairing their ship D．providing them with a book 2.The local people became angry because the Europeans________． A．looked very different B．had nothing to trade C．were cheats and thieves D．wanted to take their land 3.Where did Columbus learn about the lunar eclipse？ A．From a book． B．From the moon． C．From his group． D．From the locals． 4.What did Columbus do after returning to his ship on the night of the meeting？ A．He discussed the problem with his god． B．He waited for the eclipse to finish． C．He read about the stars and planets． D．He told his men what happened． 5.What can we learn about the Europeans from the passage？ A．They all believed in god． B．They never returned to Spain． C．They admired the local people． D．They caused their own problems．
