Part 3 Reading Comprehension (Multiple Choice)
(Each item: 2)
Directions:Read the following passages
carefully and choose the best answer from the four
choices marked A, B, C and D.
Questions 81 to 85 are based on the same passage or dialog.
Surely the most interesting part of Pamplona's San Fermin Festival (旁普罗纳的圣佛明节) is its focus on danger and death. Why would so many people, over
hundreds of years, take part in something everyone fears?
The American writer Ernest Hemmingway
explores this very question in his 1926 novel, The Sun Also Rises. The main characters, who begin to feel empty living in modern Paris, travel to Spain, and join in the San Fermin Festival. There, they see death through Spanish eyes.
By joining in the events of this colorful celebration, they begin to understand how the Spanish, in celebrating death, are actually celebrating life.
Through the images of the black bull (公牛)and the bullfighter's blood-red cloth, they discover that the Spanish find meaning in life by worshipping(崇拜)heroic death. With people running for their lives,
and bullfighters dancing with the bulls, life and
death come together at the San Fermin Festival.
