Id been out of high school for four years，but my high school headmaster，Mr.Gardner，invited me to a Valentines Day dance party at school. The thought of seeing my former teachers was exciting. So I agreed.When Friday came, I cleaned up，dressed up and drove to the high school gym. I chatted with my teachers and approached Mr. Gardner to thank him before leaving. Just then, the band started playing and a young girl stood up to sing. One look at her and I was crazyI had never seen such a beautiful girl!I asked Mr. Gardner who she was，and he answered，“Thats Marilyn Riley，Cut Rileys daughter.”I was shocked to say the least. They lived just around the corner from me. I walked across the gym floor to introduce myself，“Hi，Im Jack Joseph.”“I know who you are，”was her nottoofriendly response.“Would you like to dance？” I asked. “No！Im working，” she shot back.“Can I call you next week for a movie date？” I asked. “No” was her response.For the next month I phoned，trying to set up a date. She always had the same answer：No. Then one rainy afternoon in March as I was driving home after basketball practice，I saw Marilyn, walking with no umbrella，no raincoat and no hat. I pulled alongside her and asked if she needed a ride，half expecting her to say no. Instead，she stepped over the roadside and sat down on the seat next to me. It was only a few blocks to her house，but after pulling into her driveway we talked for 45 minutes. It was magic from then on.【解题导语】本文是一篇记叙文。讲述了作者海军退伍之后受母校校长邀请参加情人节舞会，遇到一位女孩并与其交往的故事。1Why did Jack decide to attend the party?AThe party was held to welcome him back home.BMarilyn would be introduced to him at the party.CHe could meet some of his former teachers there.DThey gathered there to celebrate Valentines Day.C解析：细节理解题。根据第一段的最后两句可以看出，由于在情人节舞会上可以见到原来的老师，所以作者决定参加舞会。所以选C项。2What was the authors attitude towards the party?ACasual.BFormal.CPassive.

It marks the approach of summer.The English developed their May Day festival from the Roman festival called Floralia. In the festival of Floralia, the Romans gathered flowers to honor the goddess of spring, Flora. In the Middle Ages, May Day became the favorite holiday of many English villages. People gathered flowers to decorate their homes and churches, sang spring songs and chose a king and a queen of May. Villagers danced around a tall pole fixed upright in the ground, called a maypole, each holding the end of a ribbon attached to the top of the pole. They tied the ribbons around the pole until it was covered with bright colors. They collected dew(露水)on May Day morning and washed their faces with it because they believed that the dew on the day had the magic power to regain youth.Nowadays in Britain people no longer attach great importance to the day, but in some towns and villages people still celebrate it by choosing the May Queen and dancing around the maypole. May Queen is a girl selected as the most beautiful girl on May Day. She is usually crowned with flowers and often driven in procession through the street. In the United States, the day has never been celebrated with the same enthusiasm as in Britain. But in many American towns and cities, children celebrate the day with dancing and singing. They often gather flowers in handmade paper baskets and hang them on the doorknobs of the homes of their friends and neighbors on May Day morning. At May Day parties, children select May Queen, dance around the maypole, and sing May Day songs.【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了欧洲国家的传统节日“五朔节”。5What do we know about the May Day in Britain in the Middle Ages?APeople dressed in bright colors.BPeople celebrated it with enthusiasm.CPeople presented flowers to the goddess of spring.DPeople stayed at home instead of going to churches.B解析：细节理解题。根据第二段内容特别是第三、四句可知，在中世纪，英国人通过举行各种活动，热情地庆祝五朔节，故B项正确。6Why did people wash their faces with dew on May Day?ATo bring good luck.BTo become prettier.CTo get magic power.
