【題目】Four years ago my sweet mom went to be with her Lord. She did it her way.

I got the call at work, and I headed home quickly. Mom and Dad lived on a small farm that they had owned since I was seven. I hated going there every weekend. There was nothing for a young girl to do but watch the one station on the old TV set, if the weather allowed reception.

My mom, on the other hand, loved the peace and quiet of the land. The place was rustic, with no indoor plumbing or heat. We had a big wood stove in the kitchen that did its best to heat the little farmhouse, but it always seemed cold and too quiet to me.

In the evenings, my mom and I would sit for hours singing in the little kitchen. I sang the melody and Mom harmonized. Her favorite song was "Moon River" and we sang it over and over. Mom told me stories about how when I was a little girl, I could sing before I could talk.

As time passed, I had my own children and went to visit them every week or two. The kids loved the farm and the tractor rides with my dad. Me, well, I still hated the silence of the farm. While my mom loved to sit at her kitchen table and look out at her garden and flowers and retell all the old stories, I missed the hustle and bustle（喧鬧）of my life at home. But I sat there listening quietly as shereminisced.

Now, I sat back in the silence and the silence was deafening so I finally leaned over to turn on an old radio. Music always comforted me.

My heart skipped a beat. "Moon River" was playing on the radio. I sat there stunned, with a tear running down my cheek, as I listened to every familiar note.

【題目】Tomb-Sweeping Day

A well-known poem by Tang Dynasty writer Du Mu tells of a sad scene in early April: "Rains fall heavily as Qing Ming comes， and passers-by with lowered spirits go. "Qing Ming Day, the traditional tomb-sweeping day, falls on April 4—6 each year. It is a time for remembering loved ones who have departed. People visit their ancestors' graves to sweep away the dirt.

Its origin dates back to the Spring and Autumn Period. Jin prince Chong'er ran away from the country with his supporters due to persecution. They were homeless for 19 years and things got so bad that Chong'er began to starve to death. One of the prince's faithful followers, Jie Zitui, cut a piece of muscle from his own leg and served it to his master. Chong'er was saved and, in 636 BC, he took back the throne.

He rewarded the officials who had stayed loyal to him but he forgot about Jie Zitui. By the time Chong'er remembered him, a heartbroken Jie Zitui had traveled deep into the mountains. Chong'er wanted to persuade Jie to come home， so he had the hills set on fire. But Jie was later found beside a large tree, with his old mother on his back. Both were dead.

Saddened by the tragedy, Chong'er ordered that fires could not be lit on the day of Jie Zitui's death. From this comes Hanshi Day, or Cold Food Day. People visited Jie Zitui's tomb the next day to pay their respects. Over time, Hanshi Day was replaced with tombsweeping day.

【1】 This passage is mainly about ______ .

A. a poem called Qingming which was written by Du Mu

B. the story between Chong'er and Jie Zitui

C. the origin of Qingming Day

D. Chong'er rewarded his loyal followers

【2】 According to the passage, which statement is NOT right?

A. Hanshi Day has another name, Cold Food Day.

B. Chong'er was forced to leave his country in 617 BC.

C. Qingming Day is a traditional festival, which is on April 5 every year.

D. Qingming Day dates back to the Spring and Autumn Period.

【3】 Cold Food Day started from ______.
