Answer 1

分析 文章大意：在中國(guó)有24個(gè)節(jié)氣，其中的一個(gè)是谷雨，它是在今年4月19日． 這個(gè)節(jié)氣被稱(chēng)為"谷雨"，因?yàn)樗�因有助于谷物生長(zhǎng)的雨而著稱(chēng)．從它的名字看，我們可以猜測(cè)這意味著是一個(gè)多雨的時(shí)期，所以如果你在未來(lái)兩個(gè)星期出門(mén)，你可能需要帶一把傘．但這是種植農(nóng)作物的好時(shí)機(jī)．如果在谷雨節(jié)氣，你錯(cuò)過(guò)了種植期，你會(huì)感到后悔的．也許你可以試著在你的花園里種一些花或蔬菜．當(dāng)春雨來(lái)的時(shí)候，農(nóng)民開(kāi)始種植莊稼．農(nóng)民常說(shuō)，"春雨貴如油．"它提前給農(nóng)民帶來(lái)了一個(gè)好年景的希望．
還有谷雨期間很多有趣的風(fēng)俗．在中國(guó)北方，人們喜歡吃椿芽炒雞蛋．這種食物在谷雨時(shí)的味道好極了，對(duì)你的胃很有好處．在中國(guó)的南部，這時(shí)期茶葉被采摘．他們被稱(chēng)為谷雨茶，因?yàn)樗�的新鮮和甜美而聞名．

解答 71．Twenty-four．（24．）細(xì)節(jié)理解題 根據(jù)文章第一段第一句There are 24 solar terms （節(jié)氣） in China，可知在中國(guó)有24個(gè)節(jié)氣，故填：Twenty-four．（24．）

74．Because spring rain is as precious as oil and brings farmers hope for a good year ahead．細(xì)節(jié)理解題 根據(jù)文章第三段中Farmers often say，"Spring rain is as precious （珍貴的） as oil．"It brings farmers hope for a good year ahead．可知"春雨貴如油．"它提前給農(nóng)民帶來(lái)了一個(gè)好年景的希望．故填：Because spring rain is as precious as oil and brings farmers hope for a good year ahead．
