問題詳情

53-56題為題組【B】England is a country of many strange and unusual festivals. However, some of the strangest festivals are the various “cheese races” that take place around the country, usually in May.At a place called Cooper’s Hill, crowds gather to watch men and women wildly chase a huge round cheese down a very steep hill. The first one down the hill wins the cheese. Every year people are hurt but the race has been held annually for the past two hundred years and there are no signs of it stopping soon. A similar, but slightly more peaceful event takes place in a town called Stilton. Here, teams of people, often dressed in unusual clothing, race to push a giant round cheese through the streets. And there’s more cheese chasing in a small village called Ide Hill, where women only are allowed to chase a cheese that is launched down the hill in the middle of the village.Nobody really knows why this kind of festivals originally started. Some people think it was a kind of fertility festival--- a festival to encourage crops to grow better. Others say that it was just to protect the rights of ordinary people to use these areas of land. Anyway, whatever the original reason was, nowadays it is just an excuse to have some fun in the sun.
