What year were you born in Are you a dragon That is to say, were you born in the Year of the Dragon
As we know, the Year of the Dragon has arrived with us for a while, and everyone is excited about talking about dragons. Many of them have noticed that more and more people are using the word “loong” instead of “dragon” in their daily life. Actually, the loongs in Chinese culture, believe it or not, are far different from the dragons in Western culture.
First, let’s talk about their origins (起源). Loongs are connected to stars and rain. They are believed to have to do with the power of emperors in the past. Dragons, however, are related to floods and dangerous waters underground.
Second, let’s dig into their stories. Loongs are like messengers between the sky and the earth. They help out the rulers, who become kings because of them. Dragons, though, are troublemakers. They fight with the rulers and can even beat them! But as time passes, dragons lose their shine and heroes start killing them.
Third, let’s look at what they mean. Since loongs represent (代表) power, they are seen as a symbol of the emperor and an important part of ceremonies and traditions. Dragons, though, are bad news. They are a symbol of evil (恶), and beating the dragons is seen as a victory over evil.
Lastly, let’s check out how they look. Loongs are like a mix of animals, with heads like camels and necks like snakes. They don’t need wings to fly because they are already skilled at it. Dragons are more like snakes, living underground and causing problems. They don’t have wings either, but people add those to make them look more impressive.
36．Why does the writer start the passage by asking questions
A．To make a report. B．To do a survey.
C．To introduce a normal year. D．To catch readers’ interests.
37．What are loongs connected with according to the passage
A．Stars and the moon. B．The power of emperors.
C．Troublemakers and evil. D．Dangerous waters underground.
38．What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 4 refer to
A．Rulers. B．Snakes. C．Heroes. D．Loongs.
39．What can we learn from the passage
A．Loongs have wings. B．Dragons are good news.
C．Loongs are used in ceremonies. D．Dragons’ heads are like camels.
40．What’s the main idea of the passage
A．The origins of dragons and loongs. B．The meanings of dragons and loongs.
C．The stories between dragons and loongs. D．The differences between dragons and loongs.

In the Chinese Zodiac（生肖）culture there is a twelve-year cycle. Each year is represented（代表）by an animal. 2023 is the Year of the Rabbit! Rabbits are gentle and smart. 41
In Chinese tradition there is a Moon Goddess named Chang’e. She lives on the moon with her rabbit. 42 Besides, rabbits can have many babies in the nature. In the past, people thought the more children they had, the better their life would be.
43 There are some traditions about how to gain the rabbit’s good luck for people. For example, in the UK, people usually say the word “rabbit” three times on the first morning of every month. They’re looking forward to bringing themselves good luck for this whole month. 44 Many actors and actresses bring a rabbit’s foot with them and kiss the foot before the performance. In some parts of Northern Europe, it is common to give a child a white rabbit as a gift. 45
Rabbits in different countries are often considered as a symbol of good luck and wealth. No matter where you are, wish you a lucky and wealthy life in the Year of the Rabbit!

Each culture has its special ways of greeting people. Let’s take a look.
The US
People in the US often shake hands with people they have just met. How the handshake began is uncertain, but most would agree that it is quite a good way to greet each other. In the past, the shaking of the right hand showed that the person was not carrying anything dangerous.
But today, things are different. According to China Daily, many American people now greet each other with their elbows（肘部）. With only a little touch, the elbow greeting makes the hands free, which is good news.
France
France is famous for its special greeting ways. They touch others’ faces and make a kissing sound. For them, it tells others, “We trust and care about each other.” However, as the virus has spread all over the world, this greeting is now banned in the country. Newspapers are filled with advice on how to take the place of the famous French kiss on the face.
India
Most people in India perform a namaskar（合十礼）as a greeting. People need to place their hands together with a bow（鞠躬）. But some young people’s greeting habits have changed because of their experiences of studying abroad. They like to offer a handshake and a kiss today. In March, the Prime Minister called on his people to use only the namaskar at this special time.
46．It’s clear that ________ according to the greetings in the US.
A．how the handshake began
B．handshake used to be a good way to greet people
C．shaking hands is better than greeting with elbows
47．What does the underlined word “banned” probably mean
A．Encouraged. B．Stopped. C．Welcomed.

49．Some Indians with experiences of studying abroad like to ________.
A．shake hands or offer a kiss
B．greet each other with elbows
C．place their hands together with a bow
