is well known in the early-20th century as a religious day.However,it is now widely recognized as a celebration of Irish and Irish-American culture with fun traditions that include hunting for leprechauns(精灵),enjoying beef,and wearing bright green clothing.While St.Patricks Day is one of Irelands holidays,the clergyman(牧师),whose death day it marks,was from the west coast of modern-day England.Though wearing green on St.Patricks Day is now the tradition,it was not the color of choice from the start.When the Order of St.Patrick was set up in the 1780s,the followers wore blue.Green was only used once it became associated with Irish nationalism in the 1790s and considered as a good representation of the countrys green hills.While most US cities hold a St.Patricks Day parade,New York City,which began the tradition in 1762,hosts the biggest one.Though the Dublin,Ireland parade,which started in 1998,cannot match the impressive numbers,the city makes up for it with a week-long celebration which attracts over a million people.For the ninth year,over 300 of the worlds landmarks will celebrate the occasion by turning green on March 17.No celebration is complete without enjoying a traditional dish or two.For St.Patricks Day,that means enjoying corned beef,cabbage,potatoes,and carrots as much as one likes.The tradition is believed to have come from early Irish immigrants(移民) to the United States,who were only able to afford meat once a week.As beef was the cheapest one,it became the meat of choice.However,dont expect to see the Irish in Ireland dining on the same food!They usually prefer bacon and lamb and would have most likely eaten pork and potatoes in the past.4.What do we know about St.Patricks Day?A.It was started by St.Patrick.B.It was first celebrated by hunters.C.It is a religious and cultural celebration.D.It is celebrated on St.Patricks birthday.答案:C解析:细节理解题。根据第一段中的“the holiday is well known.a celebration of Irish and Irish-American culture with fun traditions”可知,圣帕特里克节是爱尔兰传统的宗教和文化节日。5.Why do people wear green on St.Patricks Day?A.It is St.Patricks favorite color
