（3）C.词义猜测题。根据Then he ordered that each year on that day the setting of fire was not allowed，and that all people should eat cold food.This is the origin of the Cold Food Festival，which used to be one or two days before Clear and Bright.Later，the two merged（融合）and became Tomb﹣sweeping Day.然后他命令每年的这一天不允许放火，所有人都应该吃冷的食物。这就是冷食节的由来，过去冷食节是清明节前一两天。后来，这两个节日合并成了清明节。联系前后句可猜测出下划线单词origin的意思应为：起源。故选C。
（4）C.推理判断题。根据At the festival，people usually honor the dead，plant willows，take spring outings，fly kites and eat cold food.They also do some sports to keep warm and avoid harm caused by cold dishes.As a result，this festival includes not only sadness from sweeping new tombs（坟墓），but also laughter from spring outings.在节日里，人们通常祭奠死者，种柳树，春游，放风筝和吃冷食。他们还做一些运动来保暖，避免冷菜造成的伤害。因此，这个节日不仅包括扫墓带来的悲伤，还包括春游带来的欢笑。可推断出文章没有提及C选项：人们在哪放风筝。故选C。
（5）A.文章出处题。通读全文，根据The festival has something to do with Jie Zitui in the Spring and Autumn Period.This is the origin of the Cold Food Festival，which used to be one or two days before Clear and Bright.Later，the two merged（融合）and became Tomb﹣sweeping Day.At the festival，people usually honor the dead，plant willows，take spring outings，fly kites and eat cold food.They also do some sports to keep warm and avoid harm caused by cold dishes.这个节日与春秋时期的介子推有关。这就是冷食节的由来，过去冷食节是清明节前一两天。后来这两个节日合并成了清明节。在节日里，人们通常祭奠死者，种柳树，春游，放风筝和吃冷食。他们还做一些运动来保暖，避免冷菜造成的伤害。可知文章主要介绍了清明节的来历和习俗。故最有可能在报纸的历史和文化部分读到这篇文章。故选A。
