Part ⅢReading Comperhension Section A
Public holidays and festivals are an important part of a country's life. They give everyone a break from routine and they form part of the annual life in that country.
Sometimes they celebrate a day in a country's history, commemorate a special person , mark the passing of time or celebrate a religious festival.Many national festivals have been celebrated for years, but occasionally new ones come along and old ones gradually disappear. This is unlikely to happen to Burns' Night or St. Patrick's Day, however. The two festivals are celebrated far beyond their native land. The first of the, Burns' Night on 25 January, marks the birthday of the Scottish poet Robert Burns(1759—1796). It is celebrated by his countrymen and admirers, not only in Scotland but all over the world, from New York to Sydney, from Toronto to Tokyo.On Burns' Night the
guests eat haggis. Haggis is chopped mutton and other ingredients encad in sheep's gut, which is boiled before being rved. The haggis is brought into the room to the sound of the bagpipes and the chief guest "address" it reciting Burns' poem "Ode to the Haggis". After eating, the other guests recite more of Burns' poems, sing Scottish tunes and drink a lot of whisky. Another widely celebrated festival is St. Patrick's Day(17 March), which celebrates the life of the 5th-century saint, St. Patrick. St. Patrick was Bishop of Ireland, and it is said that he gave Ireland its national symbol when he illustrated his religious teaching with the shamrock—a three-leafed clover. But the festival is now more than anything a celebration of "Irishness" , whether it takes place in Dublin, Auckland, Melbourne, Montreal or Boston. On St. Patrick's Day there are big parades, and people wear shamrocks. In some places people add green colouring to the beer and even to rivers and streams. They go out and have " a good craic"(pronounced "crack")—Irish for good fun. Questions 56—60 Complete the table with no more than three words from the passage.

Section B
People wear clothes to protect their bodies from the cold or the burning sun, from inct bites and injuries, and from the unwelcome eyes of strangers. However, what people wear can also convey a message about who they are and their role in society.For example, visit nearly any country in the world and you will notice that young people everywhere are wearing fashionable blue jeans. They wear them not for work, but for social occasions such as parties and concerts. The jeans are somewhat of an index of how the young people view themlves : I'm modern and stylish. I'm different from the traditional older generation. 【B1】______They can convey allegiance to schools and sports teams, adverti places or products, rve as wearable travel souvenirs, and commemor
ate important occasions. The messages clearly tell others, This is what I want you to know about me. 【B2】______It says that the person wants to impress others with his or her professional status.
A fitted jacket and matching trours constitute a man's suit, while a fitted jacket and matching skirt constitute a woman's suit.
A collared shirt and a necktie are integral parts of the man's outfit, while stockings and high-heeled shoes complete the woman's. 【B3】______Military personnel are easy to identify by their uniforms. The same is true for civil emergency
personnel like police officers and firefighters. In certain contexts, special clothing is worn to differentiate not only the occupation of people, but also their authority. For example, the chef's tall white hat indicates his job and that he's in charge in the restaurant's kitchen. 【B4】______ For example, Scotsmen were distinctive tartans to show their clan affiliation, just as school uniforms identify children as students at a certain school.【B5】______In Western societies, women—and often men —wear wedding rings on their left hands. Other cultures u different symbols. Hindu women, for example, wear a red powder in their hair after they marry. Clothing rves many function
s beyond just protecting our bodies. Clothing can tell a lot about the people who wear it. Questions 61—65Complete the passage with the following ntences. There are two extra ntences that you do not need to u.A. Clothing might also show which group a person belongs to.B. An even more direct means whereby people make statements about themlves is via messages printed on T-shirts.C. A uniform identifies the occupation of many people.D. Societies choo different ways to show marital status.E. Jeans make such an important statement that, in some groups, a person might be judged by the brand of jeans he or she is wearing.F. Often the original significance of the clothing has been forgotten or has changed over time.G. Just as blue jeans and T-shirts
say a great deal about the people who are wearing them, so does the Western business suit.
