On that day in ancient times,people put ashes(灰) in the kitchen.This was to “lead the dragon into the house”.People believed that with the help of the dragon,they could have a good harvest in autumn.
Also,people eat special foods on that day.The foods are usually named after dragons.For example,people eat “dragon whisker(细须)” noodles and dumplings called “dragon teeth”.

Discoveries at the famous Sanxingdui ruins in Southwest China show that the region’s ancient Shu Kingdom Civilization shared similarities with the Maya.
The Sanxingdui ruins,located in the city of Guanghan,about 60 kilometers from Chengdu,belonged to the Shu Kingdom that existed at least 4,800 years ago and lasted more than 2,000 years,while the Mayan civilization built its city states around 200 CE.
The bronze-made remains of trees unearthed at the ruins of the Shu Kingdom resemble the sacred ceiba tree,which symbolised the union of heaven,earth and the underworld in the Mayan civilization.“They are very important similarities,” says Santos,a Mexican archaeologist,stressing that “the representations of trees in both cultures provide a symbolism that is very similar”.
One notable feature of the recent discoveries at Sanxingdui was the cross-subject work and technology applied by teams of Chinese archaeologists,which allowed the unearthing of artifacts as fragile as silk remains,which other types of less careful digging methods would not have been able to manage.
Cooperation between Chinese and Mexican archaeologists could benefit projects in the Maya world,where the rainy climate and humidity are problematic for the conservation of ruins.
“Every time our cultural knowledge increases,regardless of whether we speak one language or another,what it shows us is that we continue to be sister cultures and,therefore,the exchange of such knowledge is fundamental,” says Santos.
5.What is a similarity between the Shu Kingdom and the Maya civilization?
A.Their starting time.
B.Their historical origins.
C.Their cultural symbols.
D.Their ceremony traditions.
6.What is a common challenge for the conservation of both ruins?
A.Damp weather.
B.Positioning of ruins.
C.High latitude.
D.Language barriers.
7.What is the focus of Santos’s quote in the last paragraph?
A.The future of the China-Mexico cooperation.
B.The benefits of speaking a different language.
C.The importance of the exchange of cultural knowledge.
D.The increasing sisterhood in culture between China and Mexico.
8.Where is this text most likely from?
A.A historical novel.
B.A newspaper.
C.A research review.
D.A guidebook.
