What makes the displays exciting is that everyone gets to create his/her own show by lighting up their favorite fireworks.For Indians, Diwali also marks the end of the year.They will celebrate the first day of the New Year the following day.The final day of the festival honors the relationships between brothers and sisters and is celebrated with more special food and prayers.For kids, Diwali is like Christmas, except earlier.They get a weeks vacation from school! It is no wonder that most kids consider Diwali the best festival of all.【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文。Diwali(排灯节)在印度是很受欢迎的节日，其每年的庆祝活动持续五天。1On Kali Chaudas, people will do the following EXCEPT_Aeat great foodBplay with fireworksChonor LakshmiDdrive out bad spiritsC解析：细节理解题。根据文章第三段的内容可知，在Kali Chaudas期间，人们会品尝丰盛的食物、燃放烟花以及驱赶恶灵，不包括祭拜拉克希米女神这一项，故答案选C。2The underlined part “make up for it” in Paragraph 4 probably refers to “_”Ago shoppingBreceive goldCgive prayers Dcelebrate DhanterasA解析：推理判断题。根据第四段中画线部分前的“Those who missed the opportunity to buy gold on Dhanteras”可知，错过在Dhanteras购物的人可以在这一天弥补，因为这一天也是一个幸运的好日子，故答案选A。3The last day of the festival is mainly for_Arelatives to visit each otherBneighbors to improve relationshipsCfriends to meet and have fun togetherDbrothers and sisters to deepen their relationshipsD解析：推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段的内容可知，在节日的最后一天，兄弟姐妹们会增进相互之间的感情，故答案选D。4Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?ADiwali is the longest festival in India.BIndian New Year starts from October 24th.CThe celebration of Diwali lasts for a week.DIndians think gold can bring them good luck.B解析：推理判断题。根据文章第五段中的“They will celebrate the first day of the New Year the following day.”可知，在印度，10月24日是新年的第一天，故答案选B。BBefore I had my child, I thought I was going to let her fall and fail and make mistakes and learn from them.But from the moment she was born, without really realizing it, Ive been preventing her from hearing her own inner voice that tells her to “Go for it.”Every time she tried to take a bigger step in the playground, I was in fear.Every time she got curious and ran off to see something, Id yell，“Watch out.”“Slow down.”“Be careful.”Although I hate parenting terms, I see now that Ive been a helicopter parent.The more I started watching her at play, the more I started to hear my words echoing(回荡) back at me：“Watch out.”“Slow down.”“Be careful.”My husband taught her to ride a bike and he said，“Stay straight, look ahead, and then you ca
