As with most Indian festivals, this one also has many different folk stories. Most of them center around the success of good over evil. The most popular one is about a king, who hates his son Prahlada for loving the creator of the Universe—Lord Vishnu. When every attempt to stop him fails, his sister, Holika believed to be immune(免疫的) to fire, joins in the effort by inviting the young boy to sit with her inside a huge fire. Helped by the power of Lord Vishnu, Prahlada escapes safely, while the evil Holika is burned to death. To remember this event, huge outdoor fires are lit in the night before Holi in order to clean the air of evil spirits and to celebrate the death of the evil.
So what’s so great about this day? While there are some fun parades(游行) and folk songs and dance performances, the most fun of all is walking to the streets and splashing(泼洒) people with water guns and dry colors and even covering them with entire buckets of colored water. On this day, everybody is fair game, no matter how old or how young.
At about midday, the splashing comes to an end and people living close to oceans or rivers usually take a bath in the water to clean themselves before going home to a delicious home-made big dinner and a well-deserved short sleep, following this full day of fun and activities.
小题1:Why does the king dislike his son Prahlada?
| A．Because Prahlada doesn’t love him. |
| B．Because Prahlada is rude to Holika. |
| C．Because Prahlada loves Lord Vishnu. |
| D．Because Prahlada concentrates on his own success. |
| A．with the help of Lord Vishnu |
| B．because of his good luck |
| C．by beating his aunt Holika |
| D．using his amazing talent |
| A．fights against others fairly |

The Bumps (碰撞)
It used to be traditional for the birthday child to have the bumps. Friends would hold the child by the legs and under the arms and lift the child up and down bumping them gently on the ground. The number of bumps given is the age of the child plus one for extra good luck. As this can be dangerous, clapping (拍手) is often done instead.

Internet. However, you can also find many weather signs (征兆) among wildlife. A drop (下降) in air pressure
affects small animals in many ways. Mice and deer are good weather indicators. Before a storm, people outside
have observed that field mice come out of their holes and that Deer come down from the mountains.
Birds are good weather indicators. For example, some birds become irritable (急躁的) and will fight over a
piece of bread. Other birds chirp (叽叽喳喳) and sing just before a storm. It seems they know they won"t have
another chance for one or two hours. Birds also look for safe places before a storm. You will sometimes see
birds gathering together on a wire (电线) close to a building. Before the storm, the low pressure makes the air
so thin that birds have difficulty flying.
It is unusual to see many birds flying overhead in the summertime. Watch for other weather signs if you
see this. If they fly in the wrong direction, they may be flying ahead of a storm.
By paying closer attention to some important signs in nature, we can become better prepared for any kind
of weather.

in China, in the United States, high school is usually divided into two periods, the first two or three years are
called "junior high school" and the other is "senior high school".
