Question

The most important holiday in spring, especially for Christians, is Easter. This Christian holiday is not on the same date every year，but it’s always on a Sunday. It can be any Sunday between March 22 and April 25. Many people celebrate Easter by buying new clothes. Children celebrate by hunting for colored eggs that their parents have hidden around the house. People also give Easter baskets filled with candy and other goodies to one another to celebrate the day.

But the holiday is more than new clothes and good things to eat. On Easter, many people go to church to celebrate Jesus’ resurrection（復(fù)活）from the dead. Most people color Ester eggs. Some people hide them. Others just eat them. But no matter what one does with Easter eggs，they are an important Easter tradition throughout the Western world. People from many different cultures celebrate Easter. In both America and Belgium, children look for Easter eggs hidden on lawns and in bushes. In America, children believe the eggs are hidden by the Easter bunny (兔子).But in Belgium, the hidden eggs are supposed to have fallen from church bells. In Bulgaria (保加利亞), red Easter eggs are lucky in churches. Bulgarian families also hit these Easter eggs together to see whose is the strongest. The winner looks forward to good fortune that year. Still dozens of other Easter traditions exist. In parts of Austria，for example，children sing from door to door and are rewarded with colorful eggs.

試題分析：文章介紹了西方傳統(tǒng)節(jié)日復(fù)活節(jié)的節(jié)日傳統(tǒng)和活動(dòng)，主要介紹了與彩蛋有關(guān)的風(fēng)俗。

1.D 細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)文章第一段的It can be any Sunday between March 22 and April 25,可以得知復(fù)活節(jié)的日期，所以選D

2.D 細(xì)節(jié)題。文章Children celebrate by hunting for colored eggs that their parents have hidden around the house. People also give Easter baskets filled with candy and other goodies to one another to celebrate the day中提到的復(fù)活節(jié)活動(dòng)各在ABC選項(xiàng)中有提到，所以較為全面的答案是D

3.A 細(xì)節(jié)題。文章第二段提到On Easter, many people go to church to celebrate Jesus’ resurrection（復(fù)活）from the dead, 說明到教堂去慶祝耶穌的復(fù)活，是人們的一項(xiàng)重要的活動(dòng)，所以選擇A

4.C 細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)第二段倒數(shù)4,5,6行In America, children believe the eggs are hidden by the Easter bunny (兔子).But in Belgium, the hidden eggs are supposed to have fallen from church bells. In Bulgaria (保加利亞), red Easter eggs are lucky in churches.在美國人們慶祝復(fù)活節(jié)的方式是不一樣的。故C正確。

5.B 細(xì)節(jié)題。文章最后的話children sing from door to door and are rewarded with colorful eggs提示我們孩子們唱歌會(huì)被獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)彩蛋。所以選B
