B

     Thousands of years ago,the ancient people of Babylon and Egypt studied the stars in the sky and created the zodiac. It was first used to tell time. Later,many people used the stars to describe a person's character and to foretell what would happen in the future.

     A person's star sign is connected to his or her birth date. Some believe this sign can tell us about a person's character. For example,some think that a person born under the sign of Aries (between 21st March and 20th April) is adventurous. A person born under Cancer (between 22nd June and 23rd July) is kind and home-loving.

     In many countries in Asia,people believe the Chinese horoscope describes character and can foretell future events. In the Chinese horoscope,there are twelve animals. A person's animal sign is connected to his or her birth year. Each animal has a different type of character. People born in the Year of the Rat are friendly,but careful. Those born in the Year of the Monkey are smart and good at making money. The Sheep are shy and sensitive.

     In Asia,a person's blood type is also used to describe character. People with the blood type A are calm and serious,but they may be selfish. Type Bs are independent but may be lazy. ABs are honest,and type Os are talkative.

B

     Groundhog Day is held on Feb. 2 in Punxsutawney,Pennsylvania,a state in the northeastern U. S. every year. And you might be wondering how a groundhog landed the job of predicting the weather. The tradition goes like this： If a groundhog sees his shadow this morning,there will be six more weeks of winter.

     If he doesn’t see his shadow,spring is on the way,that is to say,we luck out with an early spring.

     Since a groundhog hibernates for the winter,its coming out of the ground is a natural sign of spring. Centuries ago,people in Europe watched for a badger or bear as signs of winter's end,rather than a groundhog. Germans who moved to Pennsylvania in the mid-1800s began keeping an eye on the groundhog. The large population of the little animal made it easy for them to forecast the weather.

      It also has religious origins,just like Candlemas,which is also on Feb. 2.Candlemas Day is a Christian holiday. Early Christians believed that if the sun came out on Candlemas Day,winter would last for six more weeks.

      In the 1880s, some friends in Punxsutawney,Pennsylvania,went into the woods on Candlemas Day to look for groundhogs. This outing became a tradition,and a local newspaper editor nicknamed the seekers “the Punxsutawney Groundhog Club”. Starting in 1887 the search became an official event and centered on a groundhog called “Punxsutawney Phil”. A ceremony still takes place every year. Groundhog Day is not a legal holiday;nobody gets off work. Many American cities have their own special groundhogs;New York City's official groundhog is called “Pothole Pete”，but “Punxsutawney Phil” gets the most attention. So far,Phil has seen his shadow about 85 % of the time.

() 1. According to the passage,spring is coming near if .

   A. a duck is swimming in the river

   B. a groundhog cannot see its shadow

   C. a groundhog can see its shadow

   D. a bear is sleeping in the tree hole

() 2. People in Europe watched for a badger in order to .

   A. predict the weather   B. take the place of a groundhog

   C. celebrate the festival   D. catch it as a pet

() 3. The underlined word “them” refers to .

   A. the groundhogs in Punxsutawney in the mid-1880s

   B. people in Europe centuries ago

   C. Germans who moved to Pennsylvania in the mid-1800s

   D. bears or other hibernating animals

(   ) 4. Which is NOT true about Groundhog Day?

   A. The festival falls on Feb. 2 in Punxsutawney.

   B. Groundhog Day has a religious origin.

   C. Going out to look for groundhogs was an official event.

   D. People have a day off on Groundhog Day.

(   ) 5. The passage is mainly about .

   A. Groundhog Day   B. Candlemas Day

   C. Punxsutawney Phil   D. Pothole Pete
