九、(常州溧阳市期末)阅读短文，选择正确的答案。(5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 light lanterns at night and eat tangyuan at the festival.
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(玉皇大帝). 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(烧毁)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 for help. The woman says, “You can light lanterns and fires. The village must be full of fire and noises. 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 noises. He thinks the village is destroyed. Then, he forgets all about the village. Finally, the village is safe.
