六 正月十五挂灯笼，这一传统习俗背后，究竟藏着怎样的故事呢？阅读短文，完成下列任务。（7分）
The Lantern Festival is one of the traditional festivals in China. It is on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. People usually eat tangyuan and light lanterns at night. Why do we light lanterns? Here is a story about it.
A beautiful big bird flies over a village. It is a pet of the Jade Emperor. Three men in the village see the bird and want to catch it. They run after the bird and hurt it. The bird can’t fly and falls into the mountains. The Jade Emperor waits for his bird, but it doesn’t come back. He looks down and finds his bird. When he knows how the bird gets hurt, he becomes angry and decides to punish the three men. He calls his daughter and asks her to burn the village.
His daughter is kind. She goes to the village and says to the three men, “My father is angry and he will burn your village on the fifteenth day of this month.” The three men don’t know what to do. They ask a wise woman. The woman says, “You can light lanterns and fires. The village must be full of fire and noise. The Jade Emperor will think the village is on fire.”
The three men do as the wise woman says. The Jade Emperor sees the fire and hears the noise. He thinks the village is destroyed. Then he forgets all about the village. The village is safe.

【分析】
本题分为两部分，第一部分图片排序需梳理短文讲述的元宵节挂灯由来的故事发展顺序；第二部分判断正误需结合短文内容和词义辨析作答。
【解析】
（一）排序：梳理短文情节：①村民伤害玉皇大帝的鸟；②玉皇大帝得知后决定惩罚村民；③玉皇大帝的女儿告密告知村民将被烧村；④智者提出挂灯制造假象的办法；⑤村民照做后村庄安全，对应图片排序为3 1 4 2 5。
（二）判断：1. 划线词“punish”所在句为玉帝得知鸟被伤后生气，要对村民采取的行动，结合语境意为“惩罚”，并非“奖励”，故错误；2. 短文核心是解释元宵节挂灯的原因，标题“为什么元宵节挂灯”符合主旨，故正确。
