節(jié)風(fēng)俗也各不相同。現(xiàn)代滸的圣誕節(jié)風(fēng)俗包括圣誕禮物、唱圣誕歌曲、參加教堂活動、擺放各種圣誕裝飾品和圣誕樹、舉行家庭聚會以及準(zhǔn)備一頓特別的大餐。對小孩子們來說,空上節(jié)日充滿了幻想和驚喜。據(jù)傳說,圣誕老人會在圣誕夜從煙囪進入每戶人家,給乖巧聽話的孩子帶來禮物。由于圣誕節(jié)送禮物以及許多其他方面推動了基督徒和非基督徒的經(jīng)濟活動,圣誕節(jié)也因此成為商家的一個重大活動和主要銷售季。11AccordingtotheChineselunarcalendar,August15ofeveryyearisatraditionalChinesefestival-theMid-AutumnFestival.Thisdayisthemiddleofautumn,soitiscalledMid-Autumn.OneoftheimportantMid-AutumnFestivalactivitiesistoenjoythemoon.Onthatnight,peoplegettogethertocelebratetheMid-AutumnFestival,lookingupatthebrightmoonandeatingmooncakes.Thefestivalisalsoatimeforfamilyreunion.Peoplelivingfarawayfromhomewillexpresstheirfeelingsofmissingtheirhometownsandfamiliesatthisfestival.Therearemanycustomstocelebratethefestival,allexpressionpeople’sloveandhopeforahappylife.Since2008,theMid-AutumnFestivalhasbecomeanofficialnationalholidayinChina.SectionBReadingskills1"Allright,"/hesays,/andcarriesthesmellypackage./Aswewalkback,/hetellsme/aboutmigrationsofeels/totheSargassoSea:/how/eelscomedownDalmatianrivers/andswimacrosstheMediterranean/andthenthewholeAtlantic,/until/theyreachthewarmSargassoSea./Here/theylaytheireggs,/andthenthebabyeelsswimback/tothenativeriver/oftheirparents.ReadingcomprehensionUnderstandingthetext21D2B3C4C5C6D7D8ACriticalthinking3Tomeagoodparentisquitechallenginganddemanding.Agoodparentshould:.attendtochildren’sphysicalandspiritualneeds;.besupportiveintimesofdifficulties;.sharelifeexperienceswithoutpreaching;.sharehobbiesanddoingsportswiththeirchildren;and.respecttheirchildren’sprivacy.Myparentstookgodcareofmysisterandme.Theyregardedittheirdutytomakesurethatwehadgoodfood,decentclothes,andaniceplacetolivein.buttheyalsorequiredustodowhatevertheytoldustodo.Andweweresupposedtokeepnosecretsfromthem.IfIsupposedtokeepnosecretsfromthem.IfIwereaparent,Iwouldtrymybesttosupplythebestformychild<ren>’sdailyneeds,justaswhatmyparentsdidtome.ButIwouldalsodosomethingdifferent:Iwouldrespectmychild<ren>’sprivacy;Iwouldnotgiveorders.Instead,Iwouldtrytobecometheirfriendsandencouragethemtodowhattheylike.Yes,afterreadingthetwostoriesinthisunit,Ihavecometoabetterunderstandingofmyparents’loveforme.Thoughmyfatherandothershowtheirloveindifferentways,everythingtheydoformeismeanttodomegood,evenwhentheyarebeingtoughwithme.MosttimesItendtotaketheirloveforgranted.Irarelyspendtimethinkingabouttheirloveforme,letaloneexpressingthanksfortheirlove.Abetterunderstandingofmyparents’lovewillpromptmetothinkaboutthatIcandotothem,andhowIcanrepaythemfortheirselflesslove.Conflictsbetweenparentsandchildrenmaybesometimesinevitable.However,therearesomethingwecandotoreconcileandsolvethedisagreement:.calmdown–angeronlymakesthingsworse;.analyzethereasonfortheconflicts;.trytobeinourparents’shoesandseethinksfromtheirangle;.explainwhatisonourmindandtrytohavetheirsupport;and.makecompromiseswheneverwecan.Nowadaysmanyyoungpeoplearetoobusytospendtimewiththeirparents.Thishasbeenasocialproblemofpublicconcern.Itistruethatyoungpeopletodayarefacinggreatpressurefromwork.Theyhavesomanythingstodothattheyoftenhavetoworkextrahours.Butthisisnoexcuseforneglectingtheirparents.Busyastheyaretheyshouldtrytosetasidetimetobewiththeirparents,especiallyontheweekend.Theagingparentsmayfeeldesertedandlonely,beingl
