    　　Languages keeps evolving(进化、发展), and English is no exception．It is a language that embraces(欣然接受)new words that may be cool today but gone tomorrow．

    　　There are, however, some words and phrases that have stood the test of time．OK, which has become the international standard for expressing agreement, is a good example．

    　　But why is this rather odd(奇怪的)expression so popular and so useful when we could use any number of other words to say the same thing?

    　　Writing in The Times, Allen Metcalf, author of OK：The Improbable Story of America’s Greatest Word, writes：“What OK provided that the others did not was neutrality(中性), a way to express agreement without having to offer an opinion．”

    　　For example, if someone asks you “Shall we go for a walk after lunch?” you can simply respond “OK”．There you go－no extra opinions．Just straight, plain old OK．

    　　So just where did this rather curious expression come from? The origins of OK have been widely disputed(辩论，争论)．Some people have guessed that OK was the name of a person or a product．

    　　Speakers of many different languages have had their say on this question, keen to claim the term as their own．

    　　Writing an article for London’s Metro newspaper, Metcalf states：‘O and K are present in every language of the world, as expressions that can be abbreviated(缩写)OK．” For example：French－“O qu-oui”, “yes indeed”; German－“Ohne Korrektur”,“ without correction needed”; and in Latin or Greek, “Olla kalla”, “all good”．

    　　But, does it sound a little too informal with this popular little expression?

    　　Apparently not．

    　　In a speech where he stated that his election(当选)would not be a radical(激进的)result to all problems, President Obama said：“…even though I am president…, AI-Qaida is still a threat(威胁)and that we cannot pretend somehow that because Barack Hussein Obama got elected as president, suddenly everything’s going to be OK,” he said．

    　　So, there you go, straight from the president．It’s OK to say OK, and thanks to the expression’s widespread usage across the world, you can be understood anywhere．

    (1)

    Using the example of Obama, the author wants to show that _________．

    [　　]

    A．

    there is still a long way to go to defeat Al-Qaida

    B．

    Obama likes to use OK when he speaks

    C．

    OK is widely used even on formal occasions

    D．

    the use of OK is encouraged in formal speech

    (2)

    According to Allen Metcalf, OK differs from other terms to express agreement, which of the following opinions is true?

    [　　]

    A．

    It is easiest way to say．

    B．

    It doesn’t need emotion．

    C．

    It is the most commonly used．

    D．

    It doesn’t use in the formal speech．

    (3)

    What is the best title for the passage?

    [　　]

    A．

    Why OK is OK everywhere?

    B．

    It’s OK to say OK in the world．

    C．

    Where did OK come from?

    D．

    Everything is going to be OK．

    　　For Chinese, it’s time for dragon boat racing and Zongzi．But in South Korea, wrestling and swing play are the highlights．However, both events go by the same name －the Dragon Boat Festival．It falls on May 5th of the lunar calendar．

    　　One festival, two cultures．Does one nation have the right to call it its own? It has been reported that South Korea will ask the United Nations Educational, Social and Cultural Organization (UNESCO联合国教科文组织) to make the celebration its cultural heritage (文化遗产)．If successful, people from other countries may see the Dragon Boat Festival as a Korean creation．

    　　As the birthplace of the yearly event more than 2,000 years ago, China is not happy with the situation (情况)．“It would be a shame if another country successfully made a traditional Chinese festival part of its own cultural heritage before China,” said Zhou Heping, deputy cultural minister．The Ministry of Culture is even thinking of making its own application (申请) to UNESCO, covering all traditional Chinese festivals, including the Dragon Boat event．

    　　“I don’t like some of the food eaten at the festival, but I am shocked by South Korea’s move,” said Jin Yutong, a Senior One student．“We should protect the cultural heritage left by our ancestors (祖先)．”

    　　It is thought that the festival is held in memory of the great poet Qu Yuan (340－278BC), who lived in the State of Chu during the Warring States Period．．

    Qu was known to be a patriot (爱国者) and admired by ordinary people．He is said to have jumped into Miluo River, because he had lost hope in his country’s future．When people heard about Qu’s death, they sailed up and down the river searching for his body．They also beat the drums to fright away fish and threw Zongzi into water．These were supposed to stop the fish from touching Qu．Dragon boat racing is said to have come from the search for the poet’s body．

    　　Over the years, the Dragon Boat Festival has spread throughout the world．．

    In Japan and Vietnam, as well as South Korea, the festival has mixed together with, and become part of the local culture．

    　　With this in mind, some experts say that it is meaningless to argue (争论) about which country the festival belongs．“Everyone can say that it came from China,” said Long Haiqing, an expert from Hunan Province．“But if the whole nation can protect the culture heritage together, they will all benefit．”

    (1)

    Which of the following country is NOT mentioned about the Dragon Boat Festival spreading?

    [　　]

    A．

    Japan

    B．

    Vietnam

    C．

    South Korea

    D．

    the United States

    (2)

    From the passage, we can see Chinese people’s attitude (态度) toward the Dragon Boat Festival is that ________．

    [　　]

    A．

    they do not like it

    B．

    they want to protect it because it is their cultural heritage

    C．

    it is a shame to protect it

    D．

    they won’t agree South Korea takes it as its own festival

    (3)

    Racing boats to celebrate the festival comes from the story that ________．

    [　　]

    A．

    people searched for Qu Yuan’s body by boat

    B．

    people searched for Qu Yuan’s boat

    C．

    Qu Yuan enjoyed boating

    D．

    Qu Yuan liked building boats

    (4)

    What can we infer (推断) from the last two paragraphs?

    [　　]

    A．

    The festival is celebrated in the same way all over the world．

    B．

    It matters a lot whose cultural heritage the festival is．

    C．

    It is good for the Chinese people to protect the cultural heritage．

    D．

    South Korea does not recognize that the festival is from China．
