Like clckwrk, nearly every furth February includes ne extra day. February 29th, therwise knwn as Leap Day, isn't exactly a hliday. Instead, it's there t keep yur calendar cnsistent with the earth's rtatin (旋转) arund the sun.
Accrding t Histry. cm, Rman emperr Julius Caesar is the “father” f Leap Year. Until he came alng, peple had used a 355­day calendar, which was 10.25 days shrter than the slar year. Rman fficials were suppsed t add an extra mnth every nw and then t keep the seasns exactly where they shuld be. But that didn't wrk ut all that well. When special ccasins started shifting int different seasns arund 45 BCE, Caesar cnsulted with astrnmers and decreed (下令) that the empire shuld use a 12­mnth, 365­day calendar, which he named after himself. Caesar's Julian calendar included a Leap Day every fur years.
Thugh Leap Day keeps yur calendar in line with the earth's rtatin arund the sun, it causes a different kind f prblem fr leapsters. When shuld these February 29th babies celebrate their birthdays during the ther three­quarters f their lives？Sme party n February 28th, while thers prefer a tw­day celebratin that spans the last day f February and the first day f March.
Leap Day can be a nuisance in the legal system. In 2006, a curt in Massachusetts was deciding whether criminal Jhn Mel culd be released a day early since his 10­year sentence included a Leap Day. In the case, the judge decided that since the man was sentenced t prisn fr years, nt days, Leap Day didn't make a bit f difference.
Thugh a few timekeepers have pushed fr calendars that dn't include Leap Day, almst all astrnmers and scieties agree that Leap Day is the best methd t keep the calendar n track.
9．Why was Leap Day created?
A．T celebrate special ccasins.
B．T hnr Emperr Julius Caesar.
C．T keep pace with the slar year.
D．T keep track f all the seasns.
10．What is the prblem with the birthday celebratin f February 29th babies?
A．It is smetimes delayed.
B．It lasts at least tw days.
C．It has t be held every ther year.
D．It may take place n different dates.
11．What des the underlined wrd “nuisance” in paragraph 4 mean?
A．Jke. B．Tpic.
C．Truble. D．Mistake.
