11．If you've never learned the stories behind the names of various South American countries，you might be surprised by some of their historical roots.
Ecuador
Once upon a time，the whole region where the country of Ecuador now exists was named Quito，which is the name of its current capital.The name "Quito" is a nod to the indigenous（本地的）Quito people who lived there in pre-Columbian times，dating back to as far as 2000 BC.Ecuador，as we know it today，is Spanish for "equator"（赤道）.In 1735，French scientists came to measure the equator in order to，essentially，carry out a proxy war between Newton and Descartes.Newton believed the earth was flattened at the poles，and Descartes believed it was squeezed at the equator.Eventually，the French pinpointed the equator and proved Newton right.
Venezuela
Believe it or not，the name "Venezuela" is actually believed to be a nod to Venice---yes，the watery city in Italy.As far as we know，this name might have come from Italian explorer Amerigo Vespucci.In1499，a naval（海军的）expedition was exploring Lake Maracaibo when they noticed the dwellings of the indigenous Alu people，who built their homes on stilts（支柱）above the water.These structures reminded Vespucci of home （or of Venice，to be more specific）.
Argentina
You probably didn't think this had to do with precious metals，did you？The name "Argentina"actually came from the Latin argentum（银），which means "silver"．In the 1520s，Venetian explorer Sebastian Cabot learned of the mythical "Sierra de la Plata"---or a mountain with a jackpot's worth of silver.It could only be accessed through an estuary（河口）in the south of the continent，which he named Silver River.Cabot never did find this rumored mountain，but the name he gave the river stuck，along with "Argentina"，or The Land of Silver.
（1）What did French scientists do in 1735？
A．Named the place.
C．Explored the region.
B．Carried out a war.
D．Did research on the equator.
（2）What can we know about Venezuela？
A．It's far from the equator.
C．It's a country built on the mountains.
B．It's more developed than Italy.
D．It's connected with an Italian explorer.
（3）From which did the name "Argentina" come？
A．A kind of metal.
C．A legend.
B．A local song.
D．A mountain.组卷：1引用：1难度：0.5 -
12．Every year on June 21st，World Music Day is commemorated（纪念）in over120 countries，including its birthplace of France，to honor both amateur and professional musicians.Citizens of a city or country are permitted and encouraged to perform music outside in their neighborhoods，public areas，and parks on Music Day.Free concerts are also held，where musicians perform for the joy of it rather than for a fee.
In the 1970s，American musician Joel Cohen，who was then working for a French radio station，came up with the idea of having musicians perform on the evening of June 21 to celebrate the start of summer.It was finally accepted by France's Ministry of Culture in 1982.The day started in France and has since extended to countries such as Belgium，the United Kingdom and others.It's the ideal time to lean a new instrument or listen to songs they wouldn't ordinarily include on their playlist.Every type of musician can celebrate World Music Day with friends，family，and even strangers，whether they are young，elderly，new，or seasoned professionals.The purpose is to promote music.
It makes no difference how good you are at making music；everyone can do it.This day can be used by even the most tone-deaf folks to sing their hearts out and appreciate the beauty and power of jye.ai.Music is not only a great way to express yourself，but it may also be beneficial to your health.A song might bring back a joyful memory or make you feel energized when you listen to it.
