B If you are a fruit grower-or would like to become one-take ad vantage of Apple Day to see what'saround.It's called Apple Day but in fact it's more like Apple Month.The day itself is on October 21,but since it has caught on,events now spread out over most of October around Britain. Visiting an apple event is a good chance to see,and often taste,a wide variety of apples.To people who are used to the limited choice of apples such as Golden Delicious and Royal Gala in supermarkets,it can be quite an eye opener to see the range of classical apples still in existence,such as Decio which was grown by the Romans.Although it doesn't taste of anything special,it's still worth a try,as is the knobbly(多疙瘩的)Cat's Head which is more of a curiosity than anything else There are also varieties developed to suit specific local conditions.One of the very best varieties for eating quality is Orleans Reinette,but you'll need a warm,sheltered place with perfect soil to grow it,so it's a pipe dream for most apple lovers who fall for it. At the events,you can meet expert growers and discuss which ones will best suit your conditions,and because these are family affairs,children are well catered for with apple-themed fun and games. Apple Days are being held at all sorts of places with an interest in fruit,including stately gardens and commercial orchards ()If you want to have a real orchard experience,try visiting the National Fruit Collection at Brogdale,near Faversham in Kent. 24.What can people do at the apple events? A.Attend experts'lectures. B.Visit fruit-loving families. C.Plant fruit trees in an orchard. D.Taste many kinds of apples. 25.What can we learn about Decio? A.It is a new variety.

D.To promote apple research. C The Chongyang Festival falls on the 9th day of the ninth month of the Chinese lunar calendar,so it is also known as the Double Ninth Festival. The festival is held in the golden season of autumn,at harvest-time.The bright clear weather and the joy of bringing in the harvest make for a festival happy atmosphere.The Chongyang Festival is usually perfect for outdoor activities.Climbing a mountain,carrying a spray of dogwood(茱萸)and drinking chrysanthemum(菊花) wine have become the trad itional activities of the festival. The dogwood is a plant with a strong fragrance(),and is often used as a Chinese herbal medicine.People in ancient times believed it could drive away evil spirits and prevent one from getting a chill()in late autumn.So its history as a medicine goes back many centuries.But the custom of carrying a spray of dogwood during the Double Ninth Festival is slowly dying out and many people in the cities do not even know what a dogwood spray looks like. Early in Han Dynasty,about 2000 years ago,people used to climb a high platform outside the capital city of Chang'an on the occasion of the Chongyang Festival.For many,it was the last outing of the year before the onset of winter.The custom evolved()into present form,when people go climbing to get some exercise as well as enjoy the autumn scenery. But what about those people who live in plains far from any mountain?The problem is solved by going for a picnic and eating cakes.The Chinese word for"cake" is“Gao”,a homonym(同音异义词)of the Chinese word for“high”.Mountains are high,so eating cakes can,by a stretch of the imagination,take the place of going for a climb. 28.Why do people carry a spray of dogwood on Chongyang Festival? A.Because the dogwood is a plant with a strong fragrance. B.Because the dogwood can be used as a Chinese herbal medicine. C.Because the dogwood has a long history as a medicine.
