The month of November is in autumn, the main season for harvesting crops.The writer O. Henry called Thanksgiving the one holiday that is purely American. It is not a religious holi day. But it has spiritual meaning.Thanksgiving began with the first European settlers in America. They gathered their crops, celebrated and gave thanks for the food.Tradition says Pilgrim settlers from England celebrated the first Thanksgiving in 1621. There is evidence t hat settlers in other parts of America held earlier Thanksgiving celebrations. But the Pilgrims’ Thanksgiving st ory is the most popular.The Pilgrims were religious dissidents who fled oppression in England. They went first to the Netherlands. Then they left that country to establish a colony in North America. The Pilgrims landed in 1620 in what late r became known as Plymouth, Massachusetts.Their voyage across the Atlantic Ocean was difficult. Their first months in America were difficult, too. Abo ut one hundred Pilgrims landed just as autumn was turning to winter. During the cold months that followed, about half of them died.When spring came, the Pilgrims began to plant crops. An American Indian named Squanto helped them. When summer ended, the Pilgrims had a good harvest of corn and barley. There was enough food to last t hrough the winter.The Pilgrims decided to hold a celebration to give thanks for their harvest. Writings from that time say Pil grim leader William Bradford set a date late in the year. He invited members of a nearby Indian tribe to tak e part. There were many kinds of food to eat. The meal included wild birds such as ducks, geese and turke ys. That thanksgiving celebration lasted three days.As the American colonies grew, many towns and settlements held thanksgiving or harvest celebrations.[共5题](1) Thanksgiving Day is originally celebrated by people for __________.

First of all, St. Valentine’s Day is not a holiday fro m work. No one gets a day off. On Valentine’s Day people usually send romantic cards to someone they lo ve or want to be loved by. The cards are called “valentines”. They are very colorful, often decorated with he arts, flowers, or birds, and have humorous or sentimental verses printed inside. The basic message of the v erse is always “Be My Valentine”, “Be My Sweet Heart” or “Lover”. A valentine is often anonymous, or some times signed “Guess who”. The person receiving it has to guess who sent it. This can lead to interesting sp eculation. And that’s half the fun of valentines.One of the symbols of St. Valentine’s Day is the Roman god of Love, called Cupid. Cupid is often printe d on the card; he is a winged infant, not wearing anything, poised to shoot his arrow into a heart. He would shoot an arrow of love i nto a person’s heart to make the person fall in love immediately, maybe with the fir st person to come along. Sometimes one arrow would go through two hearts, holding them together. So on February 14th not only do we have pictures of the Christian St. Valentine but we also have pictures of the n on-Christian Cupid, the Roman god of Love.But it is from the Christians that we get the stories about St. Valentine’s Day that most people have com e to believe. One story is about a Christian man whose name so unded something like “Valentine.” He lived around AD 250. At that time the Roman Emperor, Claudius II, refused to allow any Roman soldiers to get m arried for any reason whatsoever. Christian couples came to Valentine to be married. So Valentine would ma rry them in a Christian way. He was discovered and put in prison by the Emperor. One tradition says that h e wrote notes to his friends by marking on leaves and then throwing them out the window of his prison. An d the leaves were shaped like a heart.[共5题](1) St. Valentine’s Day is a holiday for __________. [本题2分](A) people celebrating the new year’s coming(B) people fooling others(C) people getting a family reunion(D) people expressing love to their lovers正确答案:D(2) The word “anonymous” in the first paragraph means __________. [本题2分](A) people do something by leaving false name(B) people do something by leaving no name(C) people do something by leaving real name(D) people do something by leaving nickname正确答案:B(3) Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage? [本题2分](A) Valentine is a person’s name.(B) On Valentine’s Day, cards are usually used by people to express love.(C) On Valenti ne’s Day, everyone can take one day break from work to be with their lovers.(D) Cupid is often used to symbolize love.正确答案:C(4) It can be inferred from the passage that __________. [本题2分](A) the Roman Emperor, ClaudiusⅡ, was a Christian(B) in spite of the Emperor’s prohibition, many people still held the desire for love(C) the Roman Emperor himself experienced a painful marriage(D) in Christianity, Cupid is the god of Love正确答案:B(5) The theme of this passage is to tell the readers __________. [本题2分](A) what people should do on Valentine’s Day(B) the reason people choose Cupid to be the symbol of Valentine’s Day(C) the tradition people always follow on Valentine’s Day(D) the origin and significance of St. Valentine’s Day正确答案:D参考答案:[第五单元]; 第5小题:43.Using a public telephone may well be one of the minor irritations of life, demanding patience, determinati on and a strong possibility of failure, together on occasion with considerable unpopularity.The hopeful caller (shall we call him George?) waits till six o’clock in the evening to take advantage of t he so-called “cheap rates” for a long-distance call. The telephone box, with two broken panes of glass in the side, stands at the junction of two main roads with buses, lorries and cars roaring past. It is pouring with r ain as George joins a queue of four depressed-looking people. Time passes slowly and seems to come to a standstill while the person immediately before George carries on an endless conversation, pausing only to in sert another coin every minute or so.Eventually the receiver is replaced and the caller leaves the box. George enters and picks up one of the directories inside, only to discover that someone unknown has torn out the very page he needs. Nothing for it but to dial directory Enquiries, wait patiently for a reply down the number given.At last George can go ahead with his call. Just as he is starting to dial, however, the door opens and a n unpleasant-looking face peers in with the demand, “Can’t you hurry up?” Ignoring such barbarity, George c ontinues to dial and his unwanted companion withdraws. At last he hears the burr-burr of the ringing tone, i mmediately followed by rapid pips demanding his money, but he is now so upset that he knocks down the c oins he has placed ready on the top of the box. Having at last located them, he dials again: the pips are re peated and he hastily inserts the coins. A cold voi ce informs him, “Grand Hotel, Chalfont Wells.” “I’ve an urg ent message for a Mr. Smith who is a guest in your hotel. Could you put me through to him? I’m afraid I d on’t know his room number.”The response appears less than enthusiastic and a long long silence follows. George inserts more coins.Then the voice informs him, “I’ve been trying to locate Mr. Smith but the hall porter reports having seen him leave about a minute ago.”Breathing heavily, George replaces the receiver, just as the knocking on the door starts again.[共5题](1) The main purpose of the passage is to provide __________. [本题2分](A) instructions about how to use a public call box(B) advice about how to deal with public telephone problems(C) criticism of the efficiency of telephone system(D) an account of possible annoyances in using a public telephone正确答案:D(2) George can at least be thankful that __________. [本题2分](A) the telephone itself is working(B) he can use the directory in the box to find the number(C) the call box is in a convenient position(D) he is able to give his message to the hotel receptionist正确答案:A(3) The reason for George having to dial a second time is that __________. [本题2分](A) he has used up all the money(B) he can’t find the number he wants in the directory(C) he forgets to put the money in the box(D) he has got to find the money to put in the box正确答案:D(4) How is George feeling when he completes his call? [本题2分](A) He is very disappointed at missing his family and friends.(B) He feels hard to control his annoyance.(C) He is angry with himself for being so stupid.(D) He is depressed at the thought of having to try again to get through.正确答案:B(5) Which of the following is NOT true about “cheap rate”? [本题2分](A) People would like to use “cheap rate” to have a chat with a good friend in London.(B) People would like to use “cheap rate” to a sk about a friend in hospital who has just had an operation.(C) People would like to use “cheap rate” to discuss the important project details with the colleagues.(D) People would like to use “cheap rate” to express Christmas greetings to cousins in Australia.正确答案:C参考答案:[第五单元]; 第5小题:44.The writers of murder stories go to a great deal of trouble to keep us guessing right up to the end. In a ctual fact, people often behave more strangely in real life than they do in stories.The following advertisement once appeared in a local newspaper: “An opportunity to earn $250 in a few minutes. A man who is willing to take chances is wanted for an out-of-the-ordinary job which can be perform ed only once.” A reader found this offer very generous and applied to the advertiser, but a bit suspicious, he gave a false name. Soon afterwards, he received a reply. Enclosed in the envelope was a typed note instr ucting him to ring a certain number if he was still interested. He did so and learnt on the telephone that the advertiser wanted him to “get rid of somebody” and would discuss it more fully with him next day. But the man told the police and from then on acted under their instructions. The police saw the two men meet and watched them as they drove away together. In the car the advertiser came to the point at once: he told the man he wanted him to shoot his wife. The reason he gave was that he was suffering from an incurable dis ease and wanted to live in a warmer country, but his wife objected to this. Giving the man some money, th e advertiser told him to buy a gun and warned him to be careful of the dog which, though it would not bite, might attract attention. He also gave him a photograph of his wife so that he would be able to recognize h er. After that, the advertiser suggested that the man should “do the job” next morning. Meanwhile, he would prepare his wife by telling her that a young man was going to call. After the murder, they would meet again outside a railway station and the money would be paid as arranged. The second meeting never took place, for the advertiser was arrested shortly afterwards and charged with attempting to persuade someone to mur der his wife.[共5题](1) Which of the following statements can best express the meaning of the opening sentence? [本题2分](A) The murder stories often prefer to leave the doubtful points to the readers.(B) While reading, the readers can easily guess who is the real murderer.(C) The heroes in the stories meet with a lot of trouble.(D) Usually the stories show the readers who is the murderer at the very beginning.正确答案:A(2) When a reader saw the advertisement __________. [本题2分](A) he was sure he could get it(B) he could hardly believe it(C) he applied for the job with a false name(D) Both B and C正确答案:D(3) According to the passage, we CANNOT infer that __________. [本题2分](A) the advertiser gave the man the first instruction through a letter(B) it was on the telephone that the man understood what the job was(C) the two men worked together to fulfill the plan(D) the man was scared when he knew what he was asked to do, so he reported the police at once正确答案:C(4) When the police received the report __________. [本题2分](A) they arrested the advertiser at once(B) they sent a dog to keep watching on him(C) they didn’t arrest him until they got enough evidence(D) they arrested him after his wife was killed正确答案:C(5) What did the advertisement in a local newspaper provide? [本题2分](A) An unusual job with a high pay.(B) A good job everyone wants to have.(C) A chance to be famous.(D) A large sum of money.正确答案:A参考答案:[第五单元]; 第5小题:45.

It was a large celebration.All of their friends and family came to see the lovely ceremony and to partake of the festivities and celebrations. All had a wonderful time.The bride was gorgeous in her white wedding gown and the groom was very dashing in his black tuxedo. Everyone could tell that the love they had for each other was true.A few months later, the wife came to the husband with a proposal, “I read in a magazine, a while ago, about how we can strengthen our marriage,”she offered.“Each of us will write a list of the things that we find a bit annoying with the other person. Then, we can talk about how we can fix them together and make our lives happier together.”Her husband agreed. So each of them went to a separate room in the house and thought of the things that annoyed them about the other. They thought about this question for the rest of the day and wrote down what they came up with.The next morning, at the breakfast table, they decided that they would go over their lists.“I’ll start,”offered the wife. She took out her list. It had many items on it. Enough to fill 3 pages in fact. As she started, reading the list of the little annoyances, she noticed that tears were starting to appear in her husband’s eyes.“What’s wrong?”she asked.“Nothing,”the husband replied, “keep reading your list.”The wife continued to read until she had read all three pages to her husband. She neatly placed her list on the table and folded her hands over the top of it.“Now,you read your list and then we’ll talk about the things on both of our lists,”she said happily.Quietly the husband stated, “I don’t have anything on my list. I think that you are perfect the way that you are. I don’t want you to change anything for me. You are lovely and wonderful and I wouldn’t want to try and change anything about you.”The wife, touched by his honesty, the depth of his love for her, and his acceptance of her, turned her head and wept.[共5题](1) Which is NOT true according to the passage?(A) The man and his girlfriend had a great wedding.(B) The woman wanted reasons for a divorce.(C) The man respected his wife very much.(D) The woman was moved by her husband’s kindness.正确答案:B(2) The woman suggested writing down another’s weak points, in order to ________.(A) make her marriage better(B) show her annoyance with her husband(C) let other people know(D) help her husband think independently正确答案:A(3) What is the writer’s attitude to the husband’s behavior?(A) Positive(B) Ironical(讽刺的)(C) Opposite(D) None of the above.正确答案:A(4) According to your understanding, why did tears appear in the husband’s eyes?(A) Because his wife was too perfect.(B) Because he accepted her as a whole, but she didn’t.(C) Because he loved her more than she loved him. -(D) Because his wife was too rude (粗鲁的).正确答案:B(5) It can be inferred from the passage that the wife(A) would shorten her list.(B) would not let other people know her husband’s bad aspects.(C) would learn to respect and accept her husband fully.(D) would be confused.正确答案:C43.Maybe it is true that we don’t know what we have got until we lose it, but it is also true that we don’t know what we have been missing until it arrives. Giving someone all your love is never an assurance that they will love you back. Don’t expect love in return; but be content that love has grown in your own heart.It takes an hour to like someone, a day to love someone, but it takes a lifetime to forget someone. Don’t rely on one’s appearance; it can deceive. Don’t rely on wealth; even that fades away. Rely on someone who makes you smile, because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright. There are moments in life when you miss someone so much that you just want to pick them from your dreams and hug them. Dream what you want to dream; go where you want to go; be what you want to be, because you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you want to do. May you have enough happiness to make you sweet, enough trials to make you strong, enough sorrow to keep you human, enough hope to make you happy.Always put yourself in others’shoes. If you feel that it hurts you, it probably hurts others, too. The happiest of people don’t necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the most of everything that comes along their way. Happiness waits for those who cry, those who have been hurt, those who have searched, and those who have tried, for only they can appreciate the importance of people who have touched their lives.The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past. You can’t go on well in life until you let your past failures and heartaches go off. When you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling. Live your life so that when you die, you are the one who is smiling and everyone around you is crying.[共5题](1) You should rely on someone who makes you smile_______________.(A) because a smile can make your dark time easier.(B) because a smile is bright .(C) because you have nothing.(D) because you can believe someone正确答案:A(2) What does the word “assurance”mean in the first paragraph?(A) return(B) promise(C) maintain(D) storage正确答案:B(3) In the third paragraph, “Always put yourself in other’s shoes”means_______________.(A) you should try other’s shoes before you buy it.(B) you should make yourself small enough.(C) you should consider from another person’s aspect.(D) None of the above.正确答案:C(4) If you are the one who is smiling and everyone around you is crying when you die, you are(A) Satisfied(B) Upset(C) Sad(D) Indifferent(冷漠的)正确答案:A(5) What has been mentioned in the passage?(A) to tell us not to demand too much(B) to warn us not to believe in appearance(C) to consider other people and learn to forgive(D) all of the above正确答案:D44.There are two types of twins: identical and non-identical twins. Identical twins are formed from a single egg in mother’s body which divides to form two separate babies. Identical twins look the same and are often dressed by their parents in clothes of the same colors. It is often difficult to tell identical twins from each other, even when they are standing side by side. Non-identical twins come into being when the mother produces two separated eggs at the same time, both of which grow to form babies. In this case the twins look like normal brothers and sisters and are easy to tell one from the other.In the 1970s and 1980s a scientist did some research into twins. He invited many pairs of identical twins to university and asked them to take part in a week of tests. He was particularly interested in adopted (收养) twins who had been separated at birth. He would give the twins different kinds of tests to study their speed of thinking, their speech, their memory, the ways they saw and heard different things, and so on. Time and time again he found separated twins who preferred clothes of the same color, used the same kind of shaving soap, wore the same shaped square glasses and the same colored socks.There is a third type of twins, but it is a very unusual one. Twins who are joined together at birth are known in western countries as Siamese twins.[共5题](1) It is difficult to tell identical twins because ____________.(A) they are dressed in the same clothes(B) they are dressed in the same color(C) they are very alike(D) they are standing side by side正确答案:C(2) If the twins are easy to tell from each other, they are ____________.(A) very probably non-identical twins(B) surely non-identical twins(C) surely identical twins(D) always a brother and a sister正确答案:A(3) Which of the following is NOT true according to this passage?(A) In the 1970s and 1980s a scientist did some research into the two main types of twins.(B) In the week of tests, he tested their speed of thinking, their speech, their memory and some other things.(C) There were twins who had been separated from each other as soon as they were born.(D) Very often, separated twins were found to choose things of the same kind, the same shape and the same color.正确答案:A(4) According to the passage, how many types of twins are there actually ?(A) one(B) two(C) three(D) four正确答案:C(5) This passage mainly tells us ____________.(A) the main types of twins(B) what has been found out about twins(C) how twins are formed(D) how a scientist studied twins正确答案:B45.The private automobile (私家车) has long played an important role in the United States. In fact, it has become a necessary and important part of the American way of life. In 1986, sixty-nine percent of American families owned at least one car, and thirty-eight percent had more than one. By giving workers rapid transportation, the automobile has freed them from having to live near their place of work. This has encouraged the growth of the cities, but it has also led to traffic problems.For farm families the automobile is very helpful. It has made it possible for them to travel to town very often for business and for pleasure, and also to transport their children to distant schools.Family life has been affected (影响) in various way. The car helps to keep families together when it is used for picnics, outings, and other shared experiences. However, when teenage children have the use of the car, their parents can’t keep an eye on them. There is a great danger if the driver has been drinking alcohol or taking drugs, or showing off by speeding or breakingdown traffic laws. Mothers of victims (受害者) of such accidents have formed an organization called MADD(Mothers Against Drunk Driving). These women want to prevent further tragedies (悲剧). They have worked to encourage the government to limit the youngest drinking age. Students have formed a similar organization, SADD (Students Against Drunk Driving) and are spreading the same message among their friends.For many Americans the automobile is a necessity. But for some, it is also a mark of social position and for young people, a sigh of becoming an adult. Altogether, cars mean very much to Americans.[共5题](1) Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the text?(A) Cars have encouraged the growth of the cities.(B) Cars can bring families together when they go for picnics.(C) Cars have enabled people to live far from their place of work.(D) Cars help city families to transport their children to faraway schools.正确答案:D(2) What has been done to deal with the problem of drunk driving?(A) Parents have paid more attention to their children.(B) Some organizations have been set up against drunk drinking.(C) Mothers have tried to persuade their children not to drink alcohol.(D) University students have asked the government to solve the problem.正确答案:B(3) We can infer from the text that ___________ in America.(A) it will be more difficult for people to get new cars(B) parents will not allow their children to have their own cars(C) the government will encourage people to use public transportation(D) cars will still be popular though they have cause many problems正确答案:D(4) “By giving workers rapid transportation, the automobile has freed them from having to live near their place of work.”means ___________.(A) With the help of the automobile, workers needn’t live close to their work places.(B) Automobiles make workers transport rapidly.(C) Automobiles make workers feel free to live in their place.(D) With the rapid transportation, workers have to live near their work places.正确答案:A(5) In the text, the author is focusing on___________.(A) the advantages of the automobile(B) the disadvantages of the automobile(C) the advantages and disadvantages of the automobile(D) the future of the automobile正确答案:C46. __(1)__ months later, the wife came to the husband with a proposal, “I read in a magazine, a while ago, __(2)__ how we can strengthen our marriage,”she offered.“Each of us will write a list of the things that we find a bit annoying with __(3)__ person.

2)说明其中一项活动。
My Plan for the Spring Festival
Spring Festival is a traditional day for the Chinese people to get together besides The Mid-Autumn Day.For this reason many people rush home wherever they are.However far they are and however busy they are, they try to go home.I am one of those who hate it because after one festival, I become one year older.Another reason is that there are many more ceremonies before or after the festival.
On the other hand, some people don’t agree with those people mentioned above. They quote the old saying “Health is above wealth” to prove their idea. A strong person can do almost anything as long as he tries hard.
My Ideal Job
Every person has his own ideal job. Some people wish to be doctors, while others want to be teachers and so on.
