　　A

　　(2024·郑州市第一次质检)There is a very instructive incident involving the life of Alexander the Great, King of Greek. Alexander, after conquering many kingdoms, was returning home.

　　On the way, he fell ill and it took him to his death bed. With death staring him in his face, Alexander realized his conquests, his great army, his sharp sword and all his wealth were of no consequence. So, he lay helplessly waiting to breathe his last. He called his generals and said, “I will depart from this world soon, and I have three wishes. Please carry them out without fail.”

　　“My first desire is that，” said Alexander, “my physicians alone must carry my coffin.” After a pause, he continued, “Secondly, I desire that when my coffin is being carried to the grave, the path leading to the graveyard be strewn (撒满) with gold, silver and precious stones which I have collected.” The King continued, “My third and last wish is that both my hands should be kept hanging out of my coffin.” Alexander's favorite general kissed his hand and pressed them to his heart. “Oh King, we assure you that your wishes will all be fulfilled. But tell us why do you make such strange wishes？”

　　Alexander took a deep breath and said, “I would like the world to know of the three lessons I have just learnt. I want my physicians to carry my coffin because people should realize that no doctor can really cure any bodies. They are powerless and cannot save a person from the clutches of death. So let people not take life for granted.

　　“The second wish of strewing gold, silver and other riches on the way to the graveyard is to tell people that not even a bit of gold will come with me. I spent all my life earning riches but cannot take anything with me. Let people realize that it is just a waste of time to chase wealth.

　　“And about my third wish of having my hands hanging out of the coffin, I wish people to know that I came empty­handed into this world and empty­handed out of this world.” With these words, the King closed his eyes. Soon he let death conquer him and breathed his last.

　　(2024·石家庄二模)Spoiled for choice? That's likely how you'll feel after a mere day in Athens. The secret is in not trying to do everything. Instead, take in a couple of the tourist highlights and then get a feel for this attractive capital.

　　An ancient sight

　　The Acropolis (卫城) always comes out at the top of the list of things to see in Athens. The most famous of the western world's ancient sights continue to impress tourists as they climb the marble steps and stand before the graceful Parthenon. Views from up here are amazing.

　　A slow wander

　　Plaka is the city's oldest neighborhood, resting on the slopes of the Acropolis with cafs and fascinating architecture. The streets are perfect for getting lost in, giving wanderers the chance to discover cafs and bars where they can down some strong coffee among locals. Plaka is at its best in the early evening. Acropolis House Pension is a preserved 19th­century house that gives guests a glimpse into a Greek home.

　　A market scene

　　Varvakios Agora is Athens' central market. Locals come here to shop and look for everything needed in a Greek kitchen — from olive oil to meat. This is a look at local life as well as a window into Greek cuisine. The meat market is also home to some of the city's best pubs, feeding traditional food to crowds of customers from all walks of society.

　　A splash of nightlife

　　Athenian nights are filled with music, dancing and dining. Perivoli Tou Ouranou is a club with a strong atmosphere. Filled with the sounds of violins and guitars pelting out traditional blues­like music, it's sad but also beautiful and lively.

　　(2024·贵阳市适应性监测考试)As the November cold begins to take control

　　in the UK, Bonfire Night (or Guy Fawkes Night) is a chance to wrap up in winter clothes and warm up by the fire.

　　Celebrated on November 5, Guy Fawkes Night has been part of British history since 1605, when Fawkes was found trying to blow up parliament (议会) with barrels of gunpowder. Now, it is traditional for Britons to make a fake (假的) “Guy” every year from old clothes and burn it on the fire.

　　If you visit a small town in the southwest of the country, you might see men from the village run through the crowded streets with huge wooden barrels on their backs, then fill them with tar (焦油) and set them on fire. And in Lewes, a town in the southern English county of Sussex, different groups of bonfire societies parade (游行) the streets, each wearing their own unique outfits and carrying a giant mascot (吉祥物), which they burn at their own bonfire party at the end of the evening.

　　Bonfire Night is also a time for “chili con carne”， a dish made from slow­cooked beef mince, tomatoes, kidney beans, onions, and spices. It is often served on top of a hot jacket potato with butter and cheese. It's not the most elegant dish in the world but it's sure to warm people up while they brave the cold for the festivities.

　　But for many Britons, the night is not complete without “bonfire treacle toffee (太妃糖)”， which is also known as “plot toffee”， named after Guy Fawkes' plot to blow up parliament. The toffee is rock hard and is often broken with a hammer and handed out to guests.

　　Whether it's the sound of fireworks making Britain sound like a war zone, the hearty winter food, or the excuse to light a huge fire, Bonfire Night has something for everyone. Just watch out for those rockets!

　　语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。主要向读者介绍了英国的一个节日——篝火之夜，包括这个节日的历史背景和人们在这个节日里举办的活动等。

　　8．What is Guy Fawkes Night?

　　A．A person to explode the parliament.

　　B．A guy to be controlled in the UK.

　　C．A symbol for Britons to enter winter.

　　D．A dish famous to British people.

　　解析：选C　推理判断题。根据第一段的内容可知，在Bonfire Night那天，人们开始穿上冬天的棉衣，坐在火堆旁取暖。由此可推知，这个节日标志着英国要进入冬季了。C项符合题意。故答案选C。

　　9．Why do people have “chili con carne”？

　　A．Because it's the most elegant.

　　B．Because it's full of energy.

　　C．Because it's on jacket potatoes.

　　D．Because it's slowly cooked.

　　解析：选B　推理判断题。根据第四段最后一句中的“it's sure to warm people up while they brave the cold for the festivities”可知，这道菜能让人们暖和起来，帮助他们抵御寒冷。由此可推知，人们吃这道菜是因为它充满了能量。故答案选B。

　　10．The underlined word “rockets” refers to “________”．

　　A．celebrations

　　B．fireworks

　　C．performances

　　D．bonfires

　　解析：选B　词义猜测题。画线词所在句的句意为只需小心那些“火箭”！根据最后一段第一句中的“Whether it's the sound of fireworks making Britain sound like a war zone”可知，在Guy Fawkes Night这天，英国人会放烟花，故下文提到的画线词“火箭”应指这些烟花。故答案选B。

　　11．What is the text mainly about?

　　A．The origin of Guy Fawkes Night.

　　B．The introduction of a traditional food.

　　C．A complete toffee on Bonfire Night.

　　D．Activities on the night of November 5 in Britain.

　　解析：选D　主旨大意题。文章主要介绍了英国的篝火之夜，这个节日在11月5日举办；文章还介绍了人们在这个节日举行的活动。所以D项“11月5日英国夜晚的活动”概括了文章的主旨。故答案选D。
