Last weekend, something special happened in a quiet village in Chongqing. A young woman named Daidai was worried about her elderly father. Her father was too old to handle the family’s traditional “killing the New Year pig (杀年猪)” event. So Daidai posted a video online asking for help. She also invited people to come and join a “pig-killing feast”.
To her surprise, thousands of strangers from all over China came to help! The roads to the village were full of cars. People brought gifts and worked together like old friends.
So many guests came that two pigs were not enough. Luckily, neighbors and the local culture department offered three more pigs. All the pork from the pigs was cooked for over 3,000 visitors. Everyone there helped happily — some washed dishes, some cut vegetables, and some helped with the pigs.
Local cooks worked very hard to cook enough food. The government also helped by managing the traffic and even offering free tickets to a nearby historic site.
1.1.What was Daidai’s purpose of posting the video online?
A To become famous.
B To get help.
C To sell pork.
D To share food.
解析:选B。B 细节理解题。文章第一段明确提到:“Her father was too old to handle the family’s traditional ‘killing the New Year pig’ event. So Daidai posted a video online asking for help.”(她的父亲年纪太大,无法处理传统的“杀年猪”活动,所以呆呆发布视频求助。)由此可见,她发布视频的直接目的是寻求帮助,而不是为了出名、卖猪肉或分享食物。因此正确答案为B。
2.2. What happened after Daidai posted the video?
A Many strangers came.
B Few neighbors arrived.
C Her father worked alone.
D People refused to help.
解析:选A。A细节理解题。文章第二段第一句指出:“To her surprise, thousands of strangers from all over China came to help!”(令她惊讶的是,成千上万的陌生人从全国各地赶来帮忙!)选项A“许多陌生人来了”与原文完全一致。其他选项与文章内容相反或未提及,因此选A。
3.3. How many pigs were prepared for the event?
A Two.
B Three.
C Five.
D Eight.
解析:选C。C 数字计算题。文章第三段提到:“So many guests came that two pigs were not enough. Luckily, neighbors and the local culture department offered three more pigs.”(客人太多,两头猪不够。幸运的是,邻居和当地文化部门又提供了三头猪。)因此总共准备的猪的数量是2+3=5头。选项C正确。
4.4. What did the local government do for the event?
A Cooked food for guests.
B Provided free historic site tickets.
C Bought more vegetables and meat.
D Prevented people from entering the village.
解析:选B。B细节理解题。文章第四段写道:“The government also helped by managing the traffic and even offering free tickets to a nearby historic site.”(政府也提供了帮助,包括管理交通,甚至为附近的历史遗址提供免费门票。)选项B“提供免费历史遗址门票”是原文明确提到的政府行为之一。其他选项(如做饭、购买食材、阻止进村)均不符合原文,因此选B。
5.5. How often do people suggest holding the Pig-Killing Festival?
A Once a week.
B Once a month.
C Every two years.
D Once a year.
解析:选D。D 细节理解题。文章最后一段提到:“Now, some are even suggesting a yearly ‘Pig-Killing Festival’…”(现在,有些人甚至建议每年举办一次“杀猪节”……)关键词“yearly”意为“每年一次的”,由此可推断人们建议每年举办一次。因此正确答案为D。
