1．Kwanzaa may be a festival celebrated by millions of African Americans and pan-Africans，but it has only been around for a few decades （十年）.Introduced to the United States in 1966 as a ceremony to welcome the first harvest to the home，the festival，which takes place from December 26 to January 1，is a celebration of life，unity，family，and culture.
Featuring feasts，music and dance，and a devotion and recommitment to different principles （信條），the festival was created in the middle of the Black Freedom Movement，at a time when it was felt that cultural grounding was needed.
Dr.Maulana Karenga，professor and chairman of Black Studies at California State University in Long Beach，is responsible for bringing the festival to life.After the Watts violence in L.A.，Dr.Karenga searched for ways to strengthen the African-American community.He paired the practices with traditions of several different harvest celebrations on the African continent，and although it is celebrated around the Christmas period，it perhaps has more similarities to Thanksgiving or the Yam Festival in Ghana and Nigeria.
There are five common sets of values that are central to the week-long activities：ingathering，reverence，commemoration，recommitment，and celebration.There are seven principles of Kwanzaa，meaning first fruits in Kiswahili，a language spoken in Kenya，Uganda，and Tanzania.The first fruit celebrations appear in ancient and modern times in classical African civilizations.
These seven principles are known as Umoja，meaning unity；kujichagulia，self-determination；ujima，collective work，and responsibility；ujamaa，cooperative economics；nia，purpose；kuumba，creativity；and Imani，faith.There are seven candles used during the festival，and like，the Jewish Hanukkah，these candles are used to represent the principles.
On December 31，participants celebrate with a plentiful meal，often featuring good meals from various African countries.
The number of Americans who celebrate Kwanzaa has changed greatly over the years，and with as many as six million getting involved in the 1980s，Kwanzaa became a mainstream holiday.Now，however，numbers have paled，but it still remains an important cultural touchstone （試金石） for many African American communities.
（1）What activity can be included during the celebration of Kwanzaa？
A．Creating a piece of music.
B．Having a plentiful meal.
C．Giving and receiving gifts.
D．Enjoying an art exhibition.
（2）How did Dr.Karenga bring Kwanzaa to life？
A．He started the Watts violence in Los Angeles.
B．He created five common sets of values.
C．He found ways to practice African traditions.
D．He strengthened the unity of neighbors.
（3）What can we infer about the celebration of Kwanzaa？
A．Kwanzaa is a festival across the world.
B．Africans are considered important in the U.S.
C．Kwanzaa is an important cultural symbol.
D．Kwanzaa is less popular among young Africans.
（4）What can be a suitable title for the text？
A．A festival：The Culture Cross the World
B．African Americans：An Important Part of Americans
C．Principles：The Focus of a Festival
D．Kwanzaa：The African Celebration of Unity and Culture發(fā)布：2024/11/27 8:0:1組卷：5引用：4難度：0.5 -
2．Learning a new language like English can be a challenge，but with regular study，it can be done. （1）
Here are some guidelines to help you improve your English.
（2）Learning any new language is a time-consuming process.Rather than try a few hours of review once or twice a week，most experts say short，regular study sessions are more effective.As little as 30 minutes a day can help you improve your English skills over time.
Read，watch，and listen
Reading English newspapers and books，listening to music，or watching TV can also help you develop your writing and speaking skills.By doing so repeatedly，you'll unconsciously improve your pronunciation，accents，and grammar.Keep pen and paper handy and write down unfamiliar words you read or hear. （3）Use them the next time you are role-playing dialogue in class.
Play vocabulary and grammar games
You can also improve your English skills by playing vocabulary games that are related to what you're studying in class.For example，if you are going to study English on topics that focus on vacations，take a moment to think about your last trip and what you did. （4）
Write it down
（5）Take 30 minutes at the end of class or study to write down what happened during your day.Once you're comfortable writing about your day，challenge yourself and have some fun with creative writing exercises.Choose a photo from a book or magazine and describe it in a short paragraph，or write a short story or poem about someone you know well.You may even discover you've got a talent for writing.
A.Study every day.
B.It can even be fun.
C.Set a goal.
D.Then，do some research to learn what those new words mean.
E.Don't be afraid of making mistakes.
F.Repetition is key to learning English，and writing exercises are a great way to practice.
G.Make a list of all the words you might use to describe your activities.發(fā)布：2024/11/25 23:30:2組卷：11引用：6難度：0.6 -
3．I believe that writing is the most important invention in history.It is the most important for two reasons.First，it helped governments and businesses work better.Second，it helped ideas to spread.
Writing was invented by the Sumerians around 5，000 years ago. （1）One example is The Code of Hammurabi.It was a list of laws written on a huge stone block for all to see.The law was written down，so every person knew what the law was.They knew what would happen if they broke it.
The Sumerians also wrote down rules about their government.The rules described how the government should work. （2）The rule said that the worker would have to pay a fine.This made the government act more responsibly.
The Sumerians also wrote down business contracts （合同）.That's because a contract explains what both sides promise to do.Written contracts helped the Sumerians run better businesses.This helped their civilization to grow.
（3）It was an epic poem （史詩(shī)） called The Epic of Gilgamesh.The work is about more than just two friends on an adventure.It is also about life and death，happiness and sadness.It's full of big ideas about the world.When the Sumerians wrote these ideas down，they spread.As a result，the Sumerians could study and talk about these big ideas. （4）Writing helped the Sumerians become great thinkers.
As you have read，writing helped the Sumerians become a great civilization. （5）That is why writing is the most important invention in human history.
A．They could also improve these ideas.
B．Writing continues to improve our lives today.
C．They used writing to make their government work better.
D．The Sumerians also created the world's first written story.
E．Writing is so common to us that we hardly think about it.
F．The writing of the Sumerians further developed to include sounds and meanings.
G．One rule explained what would happen if a government worker didn't do his job well.發(fā)布：2024/9/22 4:0:8組卷：8引用：3難度：0.5
