    If you have ever seen a celebration of the Chinese New Year, you may have seen a large, colorful animal dancing to the sounds of drums, cymbals, and gongs. Of course, this is not a real beast (野兽) .1.When these dancers come together, they form the colorful dancing creature!

The lion dance is a traditional part of Chinese culture. 2. It's also performed for other special occasions, like weddings. The dance is thought to bring good luck or success.

While there are many different tales of how lion dance began, one legend traces it back to village in China hundreds of years ago. 3.A lion chased nian away. But a year later, nian returned, and this time the lion was unable to help. So the people of the village created a lion costume of their own. Their fake(伪装) lion danced, pranced, roared and chased nian away.

4.

The lion dance is performed by two dancers. One dancer performs as the lion's head and front legs, and the other performs as the body and back legs. The head of the lion costume is made out of materials like paper-mache (混凝纸) and bamboo. The body of the costume is a long cloth attached to the head.

5.. In a southern lion dance, the dancers base their performance on a lion's behavior. Their lion may scratch or shake its body. The dance can even be funny. The other style is the northern lion dance. This style is closely related to the martial art form kung fu. It can involve rolling, leaping, and jumping.

Both styles require skill and practice to perform. And both are very entertaining to watch!

A.It is often performed on the eve of the Chinese New Year (or Spring Festival)

B.They gave nian what it wanted

C.It's actually skilled dancers in costume, performing a lion dance

D.The southern dance requires more skills than the northern dance

E.The legend says that the people of the village were attacked by a monster called nian

F.For this reason, people perform the lion dance on the night before the Chinese New Year they chase evil away for another year

1.C 2.A 3.E 4.F 5.G 【解析】 这是一篇说明文,讲述了中国新年的庆祝方式,舞狮表演,它是中国传统文化中的一部分,并介绍了舞狮的由来以及舞狮的两种不同形式。 1. 根据“Of course, this is not a real beast (野兽) .”当然,这不是真正的野兽。可知,下文应该解释这是什么。因此选择It's actually skilled dancers in costume, performing a lion dance它实际上是熟练的舞者,穿着服装,表演狮子舞。故选C。 2. 根据“The lion dance is a traditional part of Chinese culture.”舞狮是中国传统文化的一部分。以及下文的叙述可知,此处应该介绍舞狮表演的时间。因此选择It is often performed on the eve of the Chinese New Year (or Spring Festival) 它经常在春节前夕演出。故选A。 3. 根据“While there are many different tales of how lion dance began, one legend traces it back to village in China hundreds of years ago.”虽然关于舞狮的起源有很多不同的传说,但有一个传说可以追溯到几百年前的中国农村。可知,此处应该介绍舞狮的起源。因此选择The legend says that the people of the village were attacked by a monster called nian传说村子里的人被一个叫“年”的怪物袭击了。故选E。 4. 根据“Their fake(伪装) lion danced, pranced, roared and chased nian away.”他们伪装成狮子进行跳舞,跳跃,咆哮,把年赶走。可知,此处是该段的总结句,总结舞狮表演的目的。因此选择For this reason, people perform the lion dance on the night before the Chinese New Year they chase evil away for another year因此,人们在农历新年的前一天晚上表演舞狮,他们把邪恶在赶走一年。故选F。 5. 根据“In a southern lion dance...The dance can even be funny.
