24 蛇年話蛇（解析版）

24蛇年話蛇蛇年說蛇話圖騰宋人陸游在《人日雪》一詩中說：非賢那畏蛇年至，多難卻愁人日陰。2025年，是中國農(nóng)歷蛇年。蛇在中國傳統(tǒng)文化中有著特殊的地位。現(xiàn)代的人們常把蛇稱之為“小龍”，以示尊崇。在民俗中也有“三月三”，是真龍和小龍出洞，“抬頭”的日子。其實，這些都是人們在流傳至今的民族文化中，想象而產(chǎn)生的圖騰崇拜。蛇被認為是神秘、智慧、精明、富有、善良的代表。在中國民間傳說中，蛇有時被當做是陰邪物，蛇年易發(fā)生不好的事情。但是，蛇年好與不好，取決于人們對世界和事物的認知和態(tài)度。在人們的認知中，一般的都會認為，蛇狠毒，因此派生出“農(nóng)夫和蛇”的故事。有人認為，蛇陰險、冷漠，也派生出“美女蛇”“蛇蝎心腸”等等稱謂和形象來。也有人說，蛇十分莫測，顯得很神秘。還有人認為蛇象征著狡猾。但蛇也有著許多褒義的象征。1.象征著幸運和吉祥、神圣。古時候，人們認為蛇是君主的保護神。古時也有國家在節(jié)杖上雕刻著蛇的象形，代表著使節(jié)權(quán)力，蛇成為一個國家和權(quán)威的象征。2.象征著追求愛情和幸福。最為有著代表性的是民間傳統(tǒng)故事《白蛇傳》，是中國四大民間愛情傳說之一。描述的是一個修煉成人形的蛇精與人的曲折愛情故事，表達了人們對男女自由戀愛的贊美向往和對封建勢力無理束縛的憎恨。3.象征著長壽和財富。在中華民族文化中，蛇和龜都是長壽的象征。經(jīng)過瑜伽、氣功等習練后，人們可以延年益壽。因此說，不管蛇年的運勢與否，都取決于人們永遠保持一顆樂觀向上的心態(tài)，要好好珍惜當下，勇敢的面對一切，迎接新時代的未來。一、完形填空Haveyoueverbeennearananimalyouwereafraidof?Howclosehaveyoubeentoa1snake?Well,TonyKeplerraiseskillersnakesforalivingandheloveshis2.Hehasbeenworkingwiththem3hewasalittleboy.Tony’sfatherhasbeenasnakehandler(馴蛇師)fortwentyyearsandhehastaughthissonalotaboutthem.NowTonyis4tomakemoneyfromsnakes.Inorderto5thevenom(毒液),hehastofindrattlesnakes(響尾蛇)inthewesternpartoftheUnitedStates.Peopleusethevenomtomakeintosomethingcalled“antivenin(抗蛇毒素)”.Thisantiveninisreallyhelpfulin6thepersonwhohasbeenbitten.Manypeopleheard7storiesaboutsnakeswhentheywerechildrenandhavebeenafraidofthem.Tonyhasbeentryingto8peopleaboutthepositive(積極的)thingssnakesdo.Snakesarealsoverycleanandthey9troublehumans.Tony’sjobisverydifferentfromanyotherjobI’veheardof,butitisareallyimportantone.10venomcollectors,manypeoplewouldbeinrealdangerandsomewoulddie.1．A．safe
