阅读短文,根据题目要求完成各小题。

    In early spring, the changing temperature usually makes a number of Chinese people uncomfortable. Cold air, bringing rain or even snow, easily tears up(破坏) the warmth of the spring within a night(一夜之间).

    However, with the coming of Guyu-the Grain(谷物) Rain, the blue sky and gentle winds would finally stay. Falling usually on or around April 20 every year, Guyu is the sixth of the 24 solar terms(节气). It means the beginning of a lively summer and people get busy from now on.

    Sow(播种) grains

    This is an important period of the growth of grains. The ancient Chinese already knew that as Guyu comes, the weather will become warm enough for sowing. The farmers usually catch the chance to plant rice, corn and beans.

    Hope for safety and harvest

    For those living near the sea, they will hold some ceremonies(仪式) on Guyu, hoping for safety as well as harvest during the coming fishing season.

    Watch the peony

    It's also a great time to see the peony(牡丹), which is known as “the Queen of All Flowers” in Chinese culture. As a result, watching peonies becomes one of the most enjoyable activities for many. The flower is said to be the favourite of Empress(女皇) Wu Zetian of the Tang Dynasty, who was the only woman ruler in Chinese history.

    Pick tea leaves

    Tea leaves picked before Guyu are among the best tea leaves. People believe that the tea leaves picked on the day of Guyu can make eyes clear and drive away bad luck. So the habit of drinking tea at this time of year has become a tradition in some places of China.

(1)、When does Guyu usually come every year?

(2)、Why is Guyu an important time for sowing grains?

(3)、Translate the underlined sentence into Chinese.

(4)、List(列表) activities on Guyu according to the passage (at least two).

(5)、Give a proper title to the passage.

举一反三


 Have you ever had the feeling that no one can understand you? Well, here comes “Pepper”, it could be about to change all that. Pepper is the first robot to read human feelings. Using its emotion recognition functions(情感识别功能), Pepper can make jokes, dance and even sing to people when they are around it.

 The robot looks like a lovely girl. It is four feet tall with a tablet computer in its chest. It has human-like hands, a girl-like body and baby-like voice. It was shown to attract people at stores on Friday.

Pepper can tell facial expressions, human voice and signs, then make an answer. Pepper is designed to be a family robot, but it isn't like the household robot on the cartoon. Pepper is used at home or store, where we enjoy pleasure and entertainment.

 At home, not only can it tell jokes, it also helps people in trouble. If a natural accident happens, it can encourage them, make them laugh and feel relaxed.

 Pepper will be on sale at the price of $2,000 in August, 2015. At present, several Peppers are on show at stores for people to visit. Before selling Peppers, the creators want them to store more knowledge in order to get better along with human beings.
