It celebrates Avogadros Number, which is a basic measuring unit in chemistry. Each Mole Day has a specific theme.Pi DayThe granddaddy of mathematical and scientific holidays, however, falls every year on Mar. 14. The date, 3/14, represents the first three numerals in the calculation of pi, so the date is known annually as Pi Day.Pi Day was founded in 1988 by a physicist. The observations spread to the point where on Mar. 12, 2009, the U.S. House of Representatives passed a resolution declaring Mar. 14 as National Pi Day.Fibonacci DayNov. 23 marks Fibonacci Day, a special day that celebrates the man known as Fibonacci who developed a mathematical idea called the Fibonacci Sequence, in which every number is the sum of the previous two numbers. So, for example. 11/23 marks the day because 1+1 equals 2, and then 1+2 equals 3（the date being the 23rd）.Square Root DaySquare Root Day is a holiday that heartily honors those dates where the combination of day and month and year form square roots: e.g. 2/2/04 and 3/3/09. The last Square Root Day was 4/4/16. The holiday was created by a high school teacher Ron Gordon. Square Root Day has its own website where celebrants can gather before the next holiday.1How is Mole Day similar with Pi Day?AThey both have themes.BThey are yearly holidays.CThey fall on the same day.DThey are created by a teacher.2Which holiday is to honor a person?AMole Day.BPi Day.CFibonacci Day.DSquare Root Day.3Which day might be celebrated as Square Root Day?A10/23/22.B11/23/23.C3/12/29.

The date, 3/14, represents the first three numerals in the calculation of pi, so the date is known annually as Pi Day.”可知，Mole Day和Pi Day的相似之处是它们都是年度节日。故选B。2.细节理解题。根据Fibonacci Day部分中“Nov. 23 marks Fibonacci Day, a special day that celebrates the man known as Fibonacci who developed a mathematical idea called the Fibonacci Sequence”可知，Fibonacci Day是为了纪念一个人。故选C。3.推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Square Root Day is a holiday that heartily honors those dates where the combination of day and month and year form square roots: e.g. 2/2/04 and 3/3/09”可推知，5/5/25有可能被作为平方根日庆祝。故选D。BFu Cong, a Chinese-born pianist, died on Monday at a hospital in London, where he had lived for many years.A lover of classical music from a young age, Mr. Fu began taking piano lessons when he was 7. He made his first stage appearance in 1952. The concert caught the attention of officials in Beijing, who selected him to compete and tour in Eastern Europe. Mr. Fu soon moved to Poland, where he studied at the Warsaw Conservatory (音乐学校) on a scholarship. To prepare for the fifth Chopin Competition in Warsaw in 1955, he practiced so hard that he hurt his fingers and was nearly cut from the first round of the competition.Mr. Fu was one of the first Chinese pianists to achieve global fame when he took third place in the International Chopin Piano Competition in Warsaw in 1955. He also won a special prize for his performance of Chopins mazurkas. Almost overnight, he became a national hero. To China, Mr. Fus recognition in a well-known international competition was evidence that the country could stand on its own artistically in the West. Chinese reporters came to interview Mr. Fu, while many others went to his father, Fu Lei, for advice on child-raising.In 1981, a volume of letters written by his father, was published in China. Full of advice, encouragement, life teachings and strict paternal love, the book Fu Leis Family Letters became a best-seller in China. Besides influencing a generation of Chinese, Mr. Fus words resonated (引起共鸣) long after his death with the person for whom they were intended.“My father had a saying that First you must be a person, then an artist, and then a musician, and only then can you be a pianist," Mr. Fu Cong once recalled in an interview. "Even now, I believe in this order-that it should be this way and that I am this way.”4What is paragraph 2 mainly about?AFu Congs achievements in music.BFu Congs stage performances.CFu Congs experiences of learning music.DFu Congs efforts for competitions.5Why does Fu Congs global recognition mean a lot to China?AIt earns Chinese arts a place in the West.B
