Some holidays are well-known all around the world. Among them are New Year’ s Eve celebrations. Also common are days in honor of love and friendship, like Valentine’ s Day. Each country has its own holidays, too, often to mark important events in its history. Schools, banks, and government offices all close on days like these. 【T1】______A few of them are really very strange.
Of course, they are not strange to the people who celebrate them. Perhaps that is because the celebrations have long traditions. Consider April Fools Day, for example. No one knows when or why it began. Today it is celebrated in many countries—France, England, and Australia, among others. On this day, people play practical jokes. 【T2】______The ones who laugh are the ones playing the jokes. The people they fool often get angry. Does celebrating this day make sense to you?
Dynguss Day in Poland seems strange, too. On this day, it is traditional for boys to pour water over the heads of girls. Here is the strangest part : They do it to girls they like.
Other unusual celebrations take place in a single city or town : A holiday called La Tomatina is celebrated in Bufiol, Spain. Every year, in late August, big trucks carry more than 200, 000 pounds of tomatoes into this little town. 【T3】______For two hours, people in the streets throw tomatoes at each other. Everyone ends up red from head to toe.
August 10 marks the start of the Puck Fair, an Irish festival with a very unusual tradition. People from the town of Killorglin go up into the mountains and catch a wild goat. 【T4】______
There are also some celebrations that are really strange. In the United States, sometimes one person gets an idea for a new holiday and tries to get others to accept it. Whose idea was Public Sleeping Day ? That one is on February 28. It may seem strange, but it sounds like more fun than the one on February 9. 【T5】______
Do you like the idea of inventing a new holiday?If you do, then you will want to mark March 26 on your calendar. That is Make Up Your Own Holiday Day.
A. Some of the days people celebrate, however, are less serious.
B. That is supposed to be Toothache Day.
C. Some people have fun imagining new holidays.
D. Then begins the world’ s biggest food fight.
E. Jokes are supposed to be funny, but these jokes do not make everyone laugh.
F. They bring him back to town, put a crown on his head, and make him king for three days.
【T5】
选项
答案
B
解析
句意:这一(天)应该(或设想)是牙痛日。代词That指代前一句中的某个名词。ToothacheDay(牙痛日),说明其前一句一定会有“某月某日”,才能定为(大写的)……日。空白处【T5】______的前一句:“似乎很奇怪,可是听起来比这更有趣的是2月9日。”很明显应该补入B项。
