One day, Mathilde borrowed a diamond necklace(钻石项链) from her friend Forestier for a party.
The night arrived, Mathilde was a great success. She was prettier than any other woman. When Mathilde got home, she took off her coat before the glass to see herself once more when, suddenly, she cried, "I have—I have—I' ve lost the necklace!"
Her husband Loisel stood up, "What! How? Impossible!"
They looked everywhere, but found nothing. Loisel said to his wife, "We must think about how to replace that necklace. "
The next day, they found a similar(相似的) necklace. They could have it for 36, 000 frances. Loisel had 18, 000 francs, which his father had left him. He finally had the money after borrowing the rest here and there.
Mathilde was afraid that Forestier would open the box when she gave her the necklace. Luckily, she didn't.
After that, the Loisels were going through a hard time. Mathilde washed the dishes and tried her best to save money. Her husband worked every day and night, in hope of making more money. This life lasted ten years. In the end, they had paid off all debts(债务). But Madame became what she once hated: strong and rough.
One Sunday, Mathilde saw Forestier who was still young and beautiful. She went up. "Good-day, dear. " Forestier didn't recognize her, "Madame! I don't know you. You must have mistaken. "
"No. I'm Mathilde Loisel. "
"Oh! How you have changed!"
"Do you remember that necklace you lent me?"
"Yes. Well?"
"I lost it, so we bought another exactly like it and it took us ten years to pay for it. You can understand it was not easy for us, who had nothing. But I'm very glad because we' ve done it. "
Forestier looked at her pitifully, "Why? My necklace was a fake! It cost only 500 francs!"
a. Forestier told Mathilde the price of the necklace.
b. The couple spent ten years paying off all the debts.
c. Mathilde lost the diamond necklace and didn't find it.
d. Loisel borrowed enough money for the similar necklace.

There are lots of fun- filled ethnic(少数民族的) festivals in our country. Let's take a look at some of them.
Ethnic Festivals | Introductions |
March Fair of Bai People | The March Fair is the most important festival for the Bai people living in Dali, Yunnan. It starts from the 15th day of the 3rd lunar month and lasts about 7 days. During the festival, people in and around Dali come together for trade. What's more, they race horses, dance to and sing traditional songs. |
Torch Festival of Yi People | In Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan, Yi people celebrate the Torch (火把) Festival. It usually takes place from the 24th to the 26th day of the 6th lunar month every year. As part of the festival, every family needs to light a torch. The idea is that these torches will drive away bad luck. In the center of town, there is always a bonfire(篝火). People of all ages sing and dance around it. |
Water Festival of Dai People | The Water Festival is the New Year for the Dai people living in Xishuangbanna, Yunnan. It lasts 3 days in April. During the festival, Dai people wear their festival suits to dance and throw water at each other ( they believe it could bring happiness and good luck). The wetter you get, the luckier you will be. |
