四、阅读理解( 10’ )
Thousands of years ago, the ancient people of Babylon and Egypt studied the stars in the sky and created the zodiac（黄道十二宫图）. It was first used to tell time. Later, many people used the stars to describe a person’s character and to foretell (预言) what would happen in the future.
A person’s star sign is connected to his or her birth date. Some believe this sign can tell us about a person’s character. For example, some think that a person born under the sign of Aries (between 21st March and 20th April) is adventurous (爱冒险的). A person born under Cancer (between 22nd June and 23rd July) is kind and home-loving.
In many countries in Asia, people believe the Chinese horoscope describes character and can foretell future events. In the Chinese horoscope, there are twelve animals. A person’s animal sign is connected to his or her birth year. Each animal has a different type of character. People born in the Year of the Rat are friendly, but careful. Those born in the Year of the Monkey are smart and good at making money. The Sheep are shy and sensitive (敏感的).
In Asia, a person’s blood type is also used to describe character. People with the blood type A are calm and serious, but they may be selfish. Type Bs are independent but may be lazy. ABs are honest, and type Os are talkative.
Not everybody believes that animal sign or blood type can describe their character. But reading your horoscope can still be a lot of fun.
