Part Ⅳ Reading Comperhension
Section A
Many cultures follow special customs when a child’s baby teeth fall out.
Many of these customs include stories and beliefs related to creatures, real or magical,
taking the teeth. In Asia, for example, birds and other animals are thought to play a
role in taking these baby teeth. In the West, though, a fairy is thought to visit. In all
cases, it is considered lucky for the animal or fairy to take the offered tooth.
Koreans have a custom of throwing lost teeth up on the roof of a house. According to
tradition, a magpie will come and take the tooth. Latter, the magpie will return and
bring a new tooth for the child. This custom is also followed in other Asian countries.
In both Japan and Vietnam , children follow a similar tradition of throwing lost teeth
onto the roofs of houses. Other countries have teeth traditions which include other
animals. In Mexico and Spain, for instance, tradition says a mouse takes the, tooth and
leaves some money. But in Mongolia, dogs are responsible for taking children’s teeth
away. Dogs are highly respected in Mongolian culture and are considered to be
people’s guardian angels. Tradition says that the new tooth will grow in good and
strong if the baby tooth is fed to a guardian angel. Accordingly, parents in Mongolia
will put their child’s lost tooth in the fat of a piece of meat and feed it to a dog.
The idea of giving lost teeth to an angel or fairy is also a common tradition in the
West. Many children in Western countries count on the Tooth Fairy to leave money or
presents in exchange for a tooth. The exact origins of the Tooth Fairy are unknown,
although the story probably began in England or Ireland centuries ago. According to
this tradition, a child puts a lost tooth under his or her pillow before going to bed. In
the; small hours while the child is sleeping, the Tooth Fairy takes the tooth and leaves
something else under the pillow. What she does with the teeth is a mystery. In France,
the Tooth Fairy leaves a small gift or candy. In the United States, however, the Tooth
Fairy usually leaves money. These days, the rate is $ 1 to $ 5 per tooth. That can add
up to a lot of money from the Tooth Fairy!
26． People in Korea throw their children’s lost teeth up on______so that a
magpie can come to take them away and bring back new teeth.
正确答案：the roof of their houses
解析：(第二段第一句指出韩国人把孩子们掉的牙扔到房顶上，相信这样能使他们长出新牙。)
27． In Mongolia, it is said that ______ take the children’s lost teeth away, while
in ______, mice do.
正确答案：dogs：Mexico and Spain
