Boo5 Module 4 Carnival

No.3 Middle School of Fushun sujian

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.

2.As you wander through the streets，you see thousands of masks—elegant or frightening，sad or

amusing，traditional or modern—but you have no idea what the faces behind them look like.

[句式分析] 本句是一个较为复杂的主从复合句。从句是as引导的 从句，as是连词，意为“ 〞；主句是you see thousands of masks和you have no idea...，由表转折的并列连词but连接成一个 ；but前面的形容词对masks起到 的作用；but后面的句子中，包含一个what引导的 从句，解释说明idea的内容，what在从句中作look like的 。
