For hundreds of years, one remote hill in the middle of England has hosted one of the weirdest and most
hazardous festivals in the world. It’s the Cooper’s Hill Cheese Rolling Festival. The event is held every year at the end
of May. Some people believe that the festival originated from a tradition of rolling burning bundles of sticks down the
hill to celebrate the end of winter. Today, the festival has grown into an international event, with over 15,000
participants and spectators from all over the world joining each year.
The rules are simple. A large wheel of cheese is rolled down the hill, and participants chase after it. The first
runner to make it to the bottom of the hill is the winner. The winner of the race is allowed to keep the cheese as a prize.
Cooper’s Hill is only 200 meters long, but it is very steep. As a result, racers do not run down the hill; instead, they
usually fall down the hill head over heels. This has led to a lot of accidents. For this reason, the event was officially

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct
answer to each of the following questions from 27 to 32.
For hundreds of years, one remote hill in the middle of England has hosted one of the weirdest and most
hazardous festivals in the world. It’s the Cooper’s Hill Cheese Rolling Festival. The event is held every year at the end
of May. Some people believe that the festival originated from a tradition of rolling burning bundles of sticks down the
hill to celebrate the end of winter. Today, the festival has grown into an international event, with over 15,000
participants and spectators from all over the world joining each year.
The rules are simple. A large wheel of cheese is rolled down the hill, and participants chase after it. The first
runner to make it to the bottom of the hill is the winner. The winner of the race is allowed to keep the cheese as a prize.
Cooper’s Hill is only 200 meters long, but it is very steep. As a result, racers do not run down the hill; instead, they
usually fall down the hill head over heels. This has led to a lot of accidents. For this reason, the event was officially
canceled in 2010. Outraged fans have continued the event unofficially since then.
