One day he said to the children, “People in a lot of Asian countries wear white clothes at funerals(葬礼), but people in America and in Europe wear white in the weddings because white means purity and happiness.What colour does an English woman wear when she gets married?”
Mary said, “White, sir, because she is happy.” “That is good, Mary,” Roger said. “You are quite right.She wears white because she is happy.”
But then one boy in the class put up his hand. “Yes, Dick?” Roger said, “Do you have a question?” “Yes,” Dick said. “Why do men wear black in our country when they get married, sir?”

25、① Many people believe that toys are mainly made for kids. When we grow up, we should put away such childish things.
②But now many grown-ups are getting them out again.
③ According to data from the market research firm NPD Group, toys bought by people over the age of 12 account for 23 percent of the European market. Among them, adults are still the main force. In 2019, Beijing’s Toy Show attracted tens of thousands of visitors, including many grown-ups.
④But why are adults interested in these seemingly “childish” things?
⑤Toys can “bring back happy childhood memories”, noted website SWNS Digital. Many adults are under a lot of pressure at home and at work. Items that they were familiar with in childhood can remind them of easier times.
⑥Rob Willner, 25, is one such person who finds solace in items from the past. At his home in London, he keeps two boxes of loose childhood Lego tucked away under a bed, as well as various large “sentimental” models on shelves in his house.
⑦When he comes home after a hard day, he often plays with the toys. “It reminds me of the playful side of life, but also helps me to keep perspective. Lego isn’t great, but it’s fun, and helps you to think about what’s really important,” he told The Telegraph.
⑧ There is another reason for the rise in popularity of toys among adults. This pastime offers pressure-free creativity. Even hobbies such as baking and painting can be shadowed by the worry that the results will fail to please other people. Dressing up a doll or playing with a model train set doesn’t come with a lot of pressure to please others.
⑨ It seems that adults are no longer taking their childhood freedom for granted. After all, just as UK artist David Hockney said, “Play is serious.”
【1】Why are toys popular among adults according to website SWNS Digital?
A.They don’t want to grow up at all.
B.Playing helps develop and improve social sill.
C.They want to get along well with their kids.
D.Toys can bring back positive memories.
【2】How does Rob Willner benefit from playing with toys after work?
A.It makes him more creative at work.
B.It helps him realize important things in life.
C.It makes him think more about the past.
D.It helps him connect with other people.
【3】What does Paragraph 8 mainly talk about?
A.The rising pressure to please others that adults face.
B.How playing with toys can increase creativity at work.
C.Another reason why adults love to play with toys.
D.The reason why young people don’t cook nowadays.
【4】The best title for the passage may be ________.
A.Remaining a Kid at Heart
B.Let’s Put Away Childish Toys
C.How to Go Back to Childhood
D.Adults Are Under Lots of Pressure
26、Hongcun, with a history of about 900 years, is a beautiful village in Anhui Province. Located under Mount Huang, the village has kept the main Chinese styles from ancient times. It’s also one of World Heritage Sites.
Walk slowly along the old stone streets and roads, and you will feel like travelling back in time. All the houses with grey roofs and white walls were built during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The front gate of each house is decorated with red Chinese knots and lanterns. All of them are outlined against the blue sky and reflected into the clear rivers, lakes with dark green mountains around. It’s a living water-ink picture.
Step into a tea house to take a rest. A piece of classical music, played by guqin, fills up the house and goes into your hearts, as if you hear birds singing and rivers running. You will be lost in a world, full of peace and pleasure. Holding the tea cup, some lines of poems will come into your mind:
No dust is rising on the road, went with morning rain.
The willows by the hotel look so fresh and green.
Walk out of the tea house, and go to the open-air theatre. The actors with colored make-ups are performing in special clothes. This special Huangmei Opera is different from others, such as Kun Opera, Beijing Opera and Yue Opera. Also, you can enjoy all kinds of quyi here: crosstalk, kouji and pingshu.
If you want to feel more about Hongcun, plan a visit to it right now.

27、Jed couldn’t keep the tears running down his face. His friend, Rob, wanted to help, but the more he talked about it, the worse Jed felt.
“I know how terrible you must feel,” Rob said. “Everyone on the team thought the coach would choose you. He must be crazy to let Tom swim the breaststroke ( 蛙泳) !”
When the coach told him about the date and place of the state swimming meeting for boys of 15 and under, Jed was sure he would be swimming the breaststroke. He even told his family that the team couldn't win the event without him. When the coach chose Tom Timmons, the new boy from Spring-field, to swim the breaststroke, Jed could hardly believe it. Coach Robertson told Jed he could swim on the relay team, but that offered little consolation.
“I may leave the team ” he told Rob. “I’d rather not swim at all than be on the relay team.”
“I don’ t know whether you should do that or not,” Rob said. “We need you on the relay team. Of course, if you say you won’t swim at all, the coach may change his mind and let you swim the breaststroke.”
Jed left Rob and headed towards home. He knew it would be embarrassing to have to tell his family and his friends that someone else would take his place. He wondered if he should make up a story and tell his mom and dad that he asked the coach to put the new boy in. Jed didn’t know what to do.
