The ld Chinese saying "as happy as spending the New Year" might be utdated nw in the busy mdern wrld. The Spring Festival is regarded as the mst imprtant festival fr Chinese peple and an ccasin fr all family members t get tgether, like Christmas in the West. But many traditinal custms accmpanying the Spring Festival, hwever, have weakened in practice.
Setting ff firewrks was nce the mst typical custm f the Spring Festival. Peple thught the sputtering(爆裂) sund culd help drive away evil spirits. Hwever, the activity has been cmpletely r partially frbidden in big cities fr years as the gvernment has taken security, nise and pllutin factrs int cnsideratin.
"In recent years, sme cities have begun t allw peple t light firewrks during limited hurs at the Spring Festival, surrendering t(屈从于) public demand. Respecting flk traditins is a gesture f respect tward public pinin," said Zhu Xing, a flklre researcher.
"As peple gain mre incme and it becmes easier t buy daily gds, the New Year hliday is just like any ther. After lng wrkdays, many peple use the New Year hliday t take a rest, rather than visiting friends and neighbrs. The prcess f making and enjying the family dinner n Spring Festival Eve is the mst imprtant thing. Hwever, many families wuld like t eat ut t save time and energy," said Li Shunzhi, a resident f Harbin, Heilngjiang.
"I enjy the hlidays very much in the cuntryside. My family has been preparing fr the Spring Festival mre than tw weeks befre the hliday, cleaning the huse, buying hliday gds and decrating the huse with paper cuttings. On New Year’s Eve, the whle family stays up t see the New Year in, and in the days t fllw, a series f activities such as lin dancing, dragn lantern dancing, lantern festivals and temple fairs will be held. Withut the ancient traditins, the hliday is nthing t us," said Zhang Hui, frm Hebei.
24．Which f the fllwing is WRONG accrding t the passage?
A．Setting ff firewrks has been frbidden in sme big cities fr years.
B．Nwadays, peple can light firewrks in sme cities at the Spring Festival.
C．Peple believe that the sund f firewrks can drive away evil spirits.

B．peple wuld like t have the family dinner n Spring Festival Eve
C．peple prefer t visit friends and neighbrs rather than take a rest
D．the New Year hliday is just like any ther day
26．What can we learn frm the last paragraph?
A．Zhang Hui ften spends tw weeks preparing fr the Spring Festival.
B．Zhang Hui is used t spending the Spring Festival with his family.
C．Zhang Hui always takes part in a series f activities after the Spring Festival.
D．Zhang Hui lives in the urban area.

Fr the past tw years I have been travelling and living abrad. Hme has becme mre f a feeling than a place. I feel at hme when I am with my family in Lndn, but I als feel at hme in Italy with friends I lve. Hme is n lnger a picture f a huse with a frnt dr and sme windws. It is mre cmplicated than that.
This is ne f the reasns that celebrating the new year has becme very imprtant fr me. I d nt care abut "New Year’s reslutins(愿望)” - living abrad has made me cnstantly recnsider what kind f persn I want t be and hw I will live my life, s I dn't feel the need t plan fr change: I live fr change.
New Year’s Eve has becme my time t recnnect with the friends that makes me feel at hme. Every year we try t reunite wherever we are and remember the time when we knew each ther s well that we felt like a family. It is a mment t recnnect and get t knw each ther again. Last year, we travelled t a cttage in Ireland where we had n internet and n neighburs. In the middle f the cuntryside, away frm ur big and cnstantly changing lives, we were able t becme like a little family again.
This year, we went t Barcelna. It was a very big change. We were surrunded by culture and life and jy. There were bars and parties. It was different, but ne thing stayed very much the same-I felt at hme again and we felt like a family again.
A lt f peple feel that New Year’s Eve cannt live up t expectatins. Ideas such as the "New Year's kiss" and "reslutins" create a lt f pressure fr peple t have a night t remember, a night that will change their lives and perhaps make the next year ne wrth living. I think thse peple are missing the pint. If Christmas is abut family, why can't New Year be abut friends?
28．What des the underlined wrd "It" in Paragraph I prbably mean?
A．Family. B．Living abrad. C．Hme. D．Staying with friends.
29．Why desn't the authr care abut "New Year's reslutins"?
A．New Year’s reslutins cannt be reached.
B．His lifestyle makes him always ready fr change.
C．It's meaningless t make any big changes in life.
D．Making New Year's reslutins creates much pressure.
30．What des the authr try t cnvey thrugh his experiences in Ireland and Barcelna?
A．Life is peaceful and enjyable.
B．Living abrad is a happy experience.
C．Staying with friends makes ne feel at hme.
D．Travelling abrad enriches ne's life experience.
31．Which f the fllwing can be the best title fr the text?
A．New Year's Celebratin:Hw?B．True Friendship: What?
C．Living Abrad: Cmfrtable r Cmplicated?D．Change:Plan it r Make it?
D
If we lk arund us at the things we have purchased at sme pint in ur lives, we wuld n dubt ntice that nt everything we wn is being put t gd use: the thick wlen cat which we thught lked trendy despite the fact that we live in a trpical cuntry. the smartphne that gt put away when we bught urselves the newest mdel, r even the guest rm in ur huse that smehw gt turned int a strerm.
Thse underutilized(未充分使用的) items may seem useless t sme, but culd be f value t thers. With the ccurrence f the Internet, nline cmmunities have figured ut a way t generate prfit frm the sharing f thse underused prperty, Using websites and scial media grups that facilitate the buying and selling f secnd-hand gds it is nw easier than ever fr peer-t-peer sharing activities t take place. And this is knwn as the sharing ecnmy.
These ppular nline platfrms are prviding a chance fr peple t make a quick frtune. T give an example, busy parents previusly might nt have bthered with setting up a stall at the lcal market t sell their children’s ld equipment, but with nline marketplaces, parents are nw able t sell n thse hardly wrn baby clthes that their children have utgrwn s as t put sme cash back int their pckets.
Businesses have als caught n t the prfitability f the sharing ecnmy and are seeking t gain frm making use f thse underutilized resurces. Cmpanies like Airbnb act as a middleman fr peple t cash in n their unused rms and huses and let them ut as prfitable accmmdatin. Anther example is Uber, which encurages peple t use their wn persnal cars as taxis t make sme extra cash in their free time.
This mve twards a sharing ecnmy is nt withut criticisms. Unlike businesses, unregulated individuals d nt have t fllw certain regulatins and this can lead t prer and incnsistent quality f gds and services and a higher risk f fraud. Nevertheless, in the cnsumerist sciety we live in tday, the increased pprtunities t sell n ur unwanted and underused gds can lead t a lesser impact n ur envirnment.
32．Why can peple nw sell things mre easily?
A．Peple nwadays buy mre things.
B．Businesses want t buy the things they dn t use.
C．There are nw mre market stalls.
D．There are nw nline platfrms t d business.
33．Which f these is smething that we might underutilize?
A．Thick cat in a cld cuntry. B．Clthes ur babies dn' t r can't wear any mre.
C．The latest smartphne. D．The strerm in ur huse.
34．It might be a prblem fr unregulated individuals t sell t thers because _____.
A．what they sell might be f a lwer quality.
B．they have t fllw certain regulatins.
C．they dn't have a business license.
D．they like t criticize their buyers.
35．What might be a gd title fr this article?
A．The cnsumerist scietyB．Parents wh need mney
C．The rise f the sharing ecnmyD．Why we buy things we dn't need
