It was two months before Christmas, when nine-year-old Almie Rose told her father and me that she wanted a new bike, Her Barbi bike was just too old, and it needed repairing as well.

As Christmas came nearer, her dream for a bike seemed to disappear, so we thought, for she didn‟t mention it again. We were busy buying some beautiful story books, a doll house, a holiday dress and toys. Then much to our surprise, on December 24,she said she really wanted a bike more than anything else.

Now we didn‟t know what to do. It was just too late. We were busy with Christmas dinner and packing children‟s presents, parents‟presents, a brother‟s present and friends‟presents till midnight. So there was no time to take to buy the “right bike”for our little girl. Thinking that we were parents who would make their

On Christmas morning, we were so excited for Almie Rose to open the little box with the beautiful red and white clay bike and the note, She opened and read the note loudly. She looked at me and Ron and said,“So, does this mean I can trade in this bike for a real one?”Smiling, I said,“Yes.”Almie Rose had tears in her eyes when she replied, “I would never trade in this beautiful bike that Daddy made me. I prefer to keep it rather than get a real bike.”At that moment, we would have moved the God to buy her every bike on the earth.

Today is March 17th. About two and a half months ago, I said“Happy New Year!”to many of my friends. About fifty days ago, I said the same thing to some

www.HuiLanGe.com 回澜阁教育 免费下载 天天更新

other friends. In about four days, I‟ll say the same wishes to yet another group of friends. I‟ll do the same thing in July and also in September. “How can that be?”you might ask （if you „re from Western Europe or the Americas）.“Everyone knows that New Year‟s Day is in Januare!”

In fact, the date of New Year‟s Day depends on the calendar（日历）—and I have friends who use one or more of five different calendars to keep track of at least part of their lives:

●January 1st: New Year‟s Day on the Western/international calendar

●In January or February （in 2006, January 29 th）: New Year‟s Day on the Chinese calendar （China, Korea, and a few other places）

●March 21st: New Year‟s Day on the traditional Persian（波斯）calendar

●Mid-July （usually the 16 th）: New Year‟s Day on the Isamic（穆斯林）calendar ●September: New Year‟s Day on most Eastern Orthodox Church（东正教）calendars （Central and Eastern Europe）and, usually, on the Jewish calendar

And these are just the New Year‟s Days that I know about! As a matter of fact, there are probably even more!

( )70.The first time the writer said,“Happy New Year!”was about January 1st.

The second time was on or after .

A.February 28th B.the middle of March C.January 29th

21st

( )71.The writer will say“Happy New Year”around March 21st to some friends.

A.Chinese Orthodox

B.Korean

C.Persian

D.Eastern D.March

( )72.According to the passage, we can infer that the exact（准确的） dates for

the two New Year‟s Days in September are . A.probably different

C.probably the same

B.not always in September D.after September

( )73.The meaning of “keep track of”is . A.understand

B.choose

C.manage

D.forget

( )74.The Chinese calendar is used . A.only in China

B.in several different places D.all over the world

C.only in China and Korea

( )75.The word“Years”in the title of this article . 回澜阁 青岛著名旅游风景点

A. means that January 1st is at different times on different calendars

B.is a mistake and should be “Year”

C.is used because New Year‟s Day is at different times on different calendars D.means that the writer was polite
