As we all know，Carnival，the most important and popular festival in Brazil，mixes emotions，creativity，colors，sounds and many costumes.Maybe you have heard about the carnivals in Rio and Orleans.However，this passage describes another one.The custom of celebrating from the end of January until mid-February has long been popular in Quebec City，Canada.The first large Winter Carnival here，in the world’s snow capital，took place in 1894.Faced with winter’s hardships，the city’s population made this popular tradition into a winter celebration that warmed the hearts of all people.Interrupted by the two wars and then the economic crisis of 1929，the Carnival was held from time to time until the second half of the century.In 1954，a group of business people restarted the festivities(欢宴；欢庆).That year，Bonhomme was born and was elected the event’s representative.The next year the first official Quebec Winter Carnival took place.The Carnival snowballed(滚雪球般增大) into a big event and was important for tourism and economic activity in the city.From one winter to the next，the Carnival enriched its activity program.We have since added even more popular activities，such as winter sports，snow sculptures，and activities based on the traditional Quebec lifestyle，such as dogsled(狗拖的雪橇) races.The Quebec Winter Carnival is the largest winter carnival in the world today，and is the third on the list of Top Carnivals after the famous carnivals in Rio and New Orleans.根据短文判断正(T)误(F)1.The first large Winter Carnival in Quebec City，Canada took place in 1894.(T)2.The Quebec Winter Carnival is the third largest winter carnival in the world today.(F)Period One　Introduction & Reading and VocabularyⅠ.重点单词1.carnival n.狂欢节2.hide vt.掩藏；躲藏hidden adj.隐藏的3.confusion n.混乱；杂乱confuse vt.使……困惑confused adj.感到困惑的confusing adj.令人困惑的；难懂的4.extend vt.延长extension n.延长5.pretend vi.假装6.memory n.记忆7.revive vt.复兴；再兴起；再流行revival n.复兴；再流行；复活8.book vt.预订9. wander vi.漫步；闲逛10.elegant adj.优美的；高雅的11.magic n.魔力；魅力Ⅱ.重点短语e to an end 结束；完结2.dress up装扮；打扮3.see...as... 把……看作……4.have fun玩得愉快5.on end连续地6.in secret 秘密地7.date back to 追溯到(某个时候)8.put sb. into prison 把某人投入监狱e off 去掉；剥落10.bring...back to life使……复活，给……以活力Ⅲ.重点句式1.祈使句＋and/or＋陈述句Think of carnival，and you think of crowds，costumes，and confusion.想到狂欢节，你就会想到拥挤的人群、节日的服装和混乱的场景。
