People in Brazil mark Carnival(狂欢节)every year and it is considered to be one of the most important national holidays. It is not about a big moment in history or a famous person, but it is important for the people because it is a time of friendship, freedom, and many days without work. People can choose between parties and rest. Most people choose parties, day after day, night after night.

Carnival is celebrated forty days earlier than Easter, but it is not recognized by the church. It lasts four days and four nights. People put on their holiday clothes and go out into the streets or to clubs to enjoy themselves together.

There are also some celebration activities. For instance, samba schools make a parade showing their music and beautiful cars. They are followed by people. Every year the parade tells a different story, and each city has one or more schools like this.

In the south the celebration of Carnival comes back to normal by Wednesday. The problem is that it is not recognized by the church in the northwest where the Carnival is more traditional. There, people do not respect its end and continue to party until the next Sunday.

Carnival is my favorite holiday, but I do not agree that the party should keep going. Like at other popular parties, people drink, dance and have fun. Unfortunately, some people are not very responsible and give it a bad name, leaving a bad impression of this holiday, but it is the only national holiday that brings the whole country and its different people and cultures together.

Beijing— The public has responded with vigorous support for an NPC deputy’s proposal to extend the Spring Festival holiday from three days to 10.

More than 78 percent of about 27, 600 respondents to a poll on www. people. com. cn <http: //www. 21cnjy. com/> voted in favor of the idea of Li Jing, who is also the mayor of Meishan city in South-west China’s Sichuan province. Li said the lunar new year festival holiday was too short for family reunions, especially for the nation’s 220 million migrant workers.

With hundreds of millions of people on the move during such a short time span, the holiday puts great stress on the public transport system and suppresses tourism, she added. She suggested the holiday be extended and cover the three adjacent (毗连的) weekends, which means the public could take a total of 16 days off and floating population could spend the Lantern Festival, which falls on the 15th day of the lunar new year, with their families.

People would then have sufficient time to fully enjoy the traditional holiday with their families, Li said during an interview with People’s Daily Online on Friday.

Most online voters agreed that extending the holiday will ease the burden on public transport and strengthen family ties. “The Spring Festival is an occasion for family reunions and should be longer than the National Day holiday, ” one responder said in an online post. “Every year, I wish I could spend more time at home for the Spring Festival, but I always have to go back to work. I hope the NPC will approve this proposal. ”

Another online comment read: “Extending the Spring Festival holiday could prevent the annual transportation crush, which has in recent years resembled an exodus (出走) of fleeing refugees (难民)”.

Most of the about 13 percent who opposed the idea cited difficulties readjusting to work after the break. Some pointed out that office moral (士气) was generally low during the first week after the holiday. “After the six-day holiday, many people come back to work feeling absent-minded, ” one respondent said. Some who opposed the extension suggested adding the Lantern Festival as an official holiday.

Another 10 percent said lawmakers should carefully study the impacts before they make any decisions on holidays.

Ⅱ. 阅读填句

根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Of course you love your parents—that’s a given. But at times, maintaining the bond between parent and adult can be as challenging as that between parent and teenager. Here are some ways to strengthen an adult relationship with your parents.

Talk to your parents as friends. “　1　 it may feel funny to give up your role as the child. A good start is to model your conversations with Mom and Dad on those you have with friends, ”says Dr.  Tessina. “Don’t limit your conversations strictly to family memories, or gossip about family members, or your personal life, ”she advises. “　2　—why not explore it with Mom and Dad as you would with a friend?  Current events, sports, work, local neighborhood issues, or national politics are all fair game. ” 

　3　 When you’re dealing with your parents, laughter can be a lifesaver—both to help you handle the stress of dealing with sometimes bad-tempered individuals and to help you bond together. Tell a few jokes you know they’ll enjoy, share some comics from the paper or e-mail with them, watch the Letterman show together. 　4　 

Tell your parents what bothers you. If you love your mom and dad but they drive you crazy, your resentment(不满)can eat away at your relationship. So don’t seethe (生闷气) silently. 　5　 For instance, if your mom keeps calling you at work, tell her that your boss is starting to notice and, while you love talking to her during the day, it’s beginning to affect your job performance. Arrange a call you can both count on at a mutually convenient time.  

A. As a friend,

B. Forgiveness is the key.

C. Keep your sense of humor.

D. There’s a whole wide world out there

E. Communicate with gentleness and respect.

F. If you can laugh together, you’re doing okay.

G. If your parents still treat you like you’re six years old,

【文章大意】本文介绍了巩固成人与父母关系的几种方法。

1. 【解析】选G。本段的主题是把父母当朋友, 再根据空后面一句表示不做小孩可能感觉更有趣可知, 填空处表示如果父母还把你当六岁小孩。故选G。

2. 【解析】选D。根据空前句不要把话题局限于谈论家庭等及空后句谈广泛的话题可知选D。

3. 【解析】选C。根据本段主题要保持幽默感可知选C。

4. 【解析】选F。根据空前句中together可知选F。

5. 【解析】选E。本段的主题句是Tell your parents what bothers you. (告诉父母你的烦恼), 再根据空前面的句子不要默默地生闷气以及空后面的例子可知, 此处填空处指要温和地、充满敬意地交流, 故选E。
