【B1】______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.
【B2】______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, follow a similar tradition of throwing lost teeth onto the roofs of houses.
【B3】______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.
【B4】______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.
【B5】______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!

【B2】
选项
答案
E
解析
本段讲的是喜鹊对牙齿的处理。空后说“之后,喜鹊会返回并为孩子带来一颗新牙。日本、越南也有类似的习惯,他们将掉的牙齿扔到屋顶上”。E项说“根据习惯,喜鹊飞回来后会将牙齿带走”。既能承接上段的“custom”,又进行具体阐释。另外,根据关键词“magpie”也可判断。
