         Switzerland (瑞士) is famous for its watches. However, this country didn't invent the watch. It was the
    British who did. Here is a story of how the watch was brought to Switzerland.
         Many years ago, an Englishman traveled to Italy. This Englishman traveled in a Carriage. On his way, he
    stopped in a small town called Geneva in Switzerland.
         There was a carriage clock in it. This was the earliest kind of watch. A blacksmith's assistant happened
    to see the clock. He wanted to know what it was and asked the English man about it. "It is a carriage clock."
    said the man. "This machine can tell the time but it isn't working now."
         The blacksmith's assistant wanted to try to repair, so the traveler handed him the clock. The assistant was
    a very clever man, so it was easy for him to repair it. He even remembered how it was made. As soon as the
    traveler had gone on his way, he made a watch of exactly the same type (样式).
         So the watch-making was started in Switzerland. Today, Swiss watches are sold in countries all over the
    world.
    1. What is Switzerland famous for?
    A. TVs.
    B. Pens.
    C. Watches.
    D. Shoes.
    2. What can the carriage clock tell?
    A. A story.
    B. A joke.
    C. The time.
    D. A lie.
    3. Which of the following is true?
    A. The blacksmith's assistant didn't want to have a look.
    B. The blacksmith's assistant wanted to wear the clock.
    C. The blacksmith's assistant wanted to repair the clock for the man.
    D. The blacksmith's assistant repaired the carriage.
    4. From the passage, we know that _____.
    A. Japan started the watch-making.
    B. Swiss watches are sold only in Switzerland.

         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.

         Any mistake made in the printing of a stamp raises its value to stamp collectors. A mistake on one
    inexpensive postage stamp has made the stamp worth a million and a half times its original value. The
    mistake was made more than a hundred years ago in the British colony of Mauritius, a small island in
    the Indian Ocean. In 1847 an order for stamps was sent to a London printer-Mauritius was to become
    the fourth country in the world to issue (发行) stamps.
         Before the order was filled and delivered, a ball was planned at Mauritius' Government House, and
    stamps were needed to send out the invitations. A local printer was instructed to copy the design for
    the stamps. He accidentally printed the words "Post Office" instead of "Post Paid" on the several hundred
    stamps.
         Today there are only twenty-six of these misprinted stamps left fourteen One Penny Orange-Reds and
    twelve Two Penny Blues. Because of the Two Penny Blue's rareness and age, collectors have paid as much
    as ＄16,800 for it.
    1. Over a century ago, Mauritius _____.
    A. was an independent country
    B. belonged to India
    C. was one of the British colonies
