Thanksgiving Day is a special holiday in the United States and Canada. Families and friends gather to eat and give thanks for God's blessing.

Thanksgiving Day is really a harvest festival. This is why it is celebrated in late fall, after the crops are in. But the first thanksgiving in America had nothing to do with a good harvest. On December 4,1619, the Pilgrims from England landed near what is now Charles City, Virginia. They knelt down and thanked God for their safe journey across the Atlantic.

The first New England Thanksgiving did celebrate a rich harvest. The Pilgrims landed at what is now Plymouth, Massachusetts, in 1620. They had a difficult time and the first winter was cruel. Many of the Pilgrims died. But the next year, they had a good harvest. So Governor Bradford declared a three－day feast(盛宴). The Pilgrims invited Indian friends to join them for their special feast. Everyone brought food.

As time went by, other colonies(殖民地) began to celebrate a day of thanksgiving. But it took years before there was a national Thanksgiving Day. During the Civil War, Sarah Josepha Hale persuaded Abraham Lincoln to do something about it. In 1863, he proclaimed(宣布) the last Thursday of November as a day of thanksgiving. Today, Americans celebrate this happy harvest festival on the fourth Thursday in November. Canadians celebrate Thanksgiving Day in much the same way as their American neighbors. But the Canadian Thanksgiving Day falls on the second Monday in October.

Thanksgiving Day is observed by church services and family reunions; the turkey dinner is a reminder of the four wild turkeys served at the Pilgrims' first thanksgiving feast. There are slight differences in Canada's and the United States' Thanksgiving in dates but the tradition is very similar. Other countries celebrate Thanksgiving Day as well.

My name is Valentine. I lived in Rome during the third century. That was long, long ago! At that time, Rome was ruled by an emperor named Claudius. I didn't like Emperor Claudius, and I wasn't the only one! A lot of people shared my feelings.

Claudius wanted to have a big army. He expected men to volunteer to join. Many men just did not want to fight in wars. They did not want to leave their wives and families. As you might have guessed, not many men signed up. This made Claudius furious. So what happened? He had a crazy idea. He thought that if men were not married, they would not mind joining the army. So Claudius decided not to allow any more marriages. Young people thought his new law was cruel. I thought it was preposterous! I certainly wasn't going to support that law！

Did I mention that I was a priest (牧师)? One of my favourite activities was to marry couples. Even after Emperor Claudius passed his law, I kept on performing marriage ceremonies — secretly, of course. It was really quite exciting. Imagine a small candle­lit room with only the bride and groom and myself. We would whisper the words of the ceremony, listening all the while for the steps of soldiers. One night, we did hear footsteps. It was scary! Thank goodness the couple I was marrying escaped in time. I was caught. I was thrown in jail and told that my punishment was death.

I tried to stay cheerful. And do you know what? Wonderful things happened. Many young people came to the jail to visit me. They threw flowers and notes up to my window. They wanted me to know that they, too, believed in love.

On the day I was to die, February 14,269 A．D. I left my friend a little note thanking a girl, who helped me keep my spirits up, for her friendship and loyalty. I signed it, “Love from your Valentine.”

The Children's Groundwater Festival, first organized by the Groundwater Foundation 19 years ago, is celebrated every year in Nebraska, a state of the central United States in the Great Plains. After organizing the festival for 16 years, the foundation passed the program on to the local community of Grand Island, Nebraska. The festival is an annual event for fourth and fifth graders of Nebraska. It is an interesting and energetic day filled with hands­on education. Water magic, folk singers and musicians, storytellers, and bird shows add to the happy atmosphere during the festival. There are also some educational activities：

Gooey Garbage: Children build a landfill (废物填埋场) and learn how a properly­built landfill can protect groundwater.

Water Races: Children learn about water pollution by racing a drop of water through a model.

Well in a Cup: By building a small aquifer (蓄水层) in a cup, children learn about aquifers and drinking water wells.

Taster's Choice: Children drink different types of water, from tap water to bottled water. Then they are taught about the treatment process of each type of water.

There's No New Water: Students are taught to make a special glass container and learn about the water cycle.

The Children's Groundwater Festival not only has a great influence on Nebraska's people. So far, similar festivals have been held in nearly 40 American states, Mexico City, several provinces in Canada, and New Delhi, India. People everywhere are realizing the importance of educating young people to learn and care about groundwater.

答案与解析：

16.C 根据前面信息可知此时是狂欢节，而且下文也提到人们在举行晚会来庆祝。故选C项。

17.A　表示在某方面，应该用in。这里指不同颜色的衣服。

18.B　根据前面的信息很容易判断出此处表示因果关系，故用therefore。

19.A　根据后面的at可知此处应选arrived。

20.B　“wear”一词除了表示“穿戴”状态外，还可以表示“佩戴首饰”。

21.D　根据from the manager可知此处表示“得知”，故选D项。

22.C　pay“支付”与spend“花费”通常用人来作主语；而take“需要”意义不符，只有cost“价钱为；需花费”用物作主语，所以答案选C项。

23.A　他们兄妹为晚会做好了充分的准备，所以选A项，此处表示状态，而不是动作。

24.B　根据下文have dinner可知应该是在餐馆里。

25.D'由下文可知迪安娜丢了钻石，她发现后肯定会screaming“尖叫”。

26.C　gone“丢失的；不见的”；而lost强调“遗失；迷路”。此处表示钻石被偷，应该是不见了，所以选C项。

27.A　根据25空可知此处表示大声喊叫，应用cry一词，再根据and不难看出此处缺少并列谓语动词。所以A项为正确答案。

28.B　迪安娜丢失了钻石，这个黑衣盗贼肯定是带着钻石逃跑。

29.A　文章第2个空已经告诉我们来参加晚会的人们穿着不同颜色的衣服，所以应用colorful一词表示“五彩缤纷的”。

30.B　因为街上满是狂欢的人们，所以追赶小偷就很难了。

31.D　小偷怕被抓，肯定疯狂逃跑，文章并没有交代小偷开车或骑车。

32.C　前文交代小偷在跑的过程中摔倒，这兄妹两人赶快坐到小偷身上把他抓住。

33.C　警察抓住小偷后会把他送往监狱。故C项为正确选项。

34.A　凯莉和史蒂夫帮助迪安娜找回了丢失的钻石，她肯定会表示感谢。

35.B　根据句意：这是他们过得最好的狂欢节，根据最高级可以知道，此处表示“曾经”之意，故用ever。

第二节　语法填空(共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分)

阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。

It was Mother's Day morning last year. My five­year­old son, Tenyson, and I 36.________ (leave)the supermarket after shopping, when an old woman fell over at the entrance and hit her head on the ground. Her husband was with her, but the woman was 37.________ (serious) hurt and shaking with pain.

At the front of the supermarket a charity (慈善) group was selling flowers to raise funds. Tenyson suggested that we 38.________ ( buy) the lady a flower. “It will make 39.________ feel better，” he said. I was amazed that he'd come up 40.________ such a sweet idea. So we went to the flower seller to buy a flower for the lady.

By now rescuers had arrived, and were attending the 41.________ (injure)woman. As we walked up to her, my son became frightened by all the blood and medical 42.________(equip). He said he was just too scared to go up to her.

Instead I gave the flower to the woman's husband 43.________ told him, “ My son was very upset for your wife and bought her this flower to cheer her up.”

At that, the old man was moved and said, “Thank you so much, you have a good son. Happy Mother's Day to you.”

The man then gave his wife the flower, 44.________ (tell) her who it was from. 45.________ badly hurt, the old lady looked up at Tenyson with thanks in her eyes and gave him a little smile.

答案与解析：

语篇解读　作者带儿子去购物，在超市门口看见一位摔倒了的老妇人。善良的儿子为老妇人买了一朵花使她高兴起来。作者旨在借本文向我们传递人与人之间互相关心的正能量。

36.were leaving　根据语境可知作者和孩子正要离开超市时，一个老妇人摔倒在地碰破了头。leave为过去某时间内正发生的动作，应用过去进行时。

37.seriously　空格后是动词hurt，应用副词修饰；故填形容词serious的副词形式seriously。

38.(should) buy　suggest 作“建议”讲时后接宾语从句谓语用should do形式，should可以省略。

39. her 　空格处缺少宾语，应填代词。结合语境可知该句表儿子建议买朵花送给老妇人让她心情好点。故该空填宾格代词her代指 the old woman。

40. with　come up with “想出”。

41.injured　分析句子成分可知所给词在句中作定语修饰名词woman，又injure 与其逻辑主语woman为被动关系，故填过去分词 injured作定语。

42. equipment　空格处所填词在句中与blood 并列作介词by的宾语，故该空填动词equip的名词形式 equipment “设备”。

43. and　空格前后为并列的动作gave和told，表“和”之意，故填连词and。

44. telling　本句已有谓语gave，故该空应填非谓语。所给词 tell与其逻辑主语 the old man 之间为主动关系，故用现在分词形式作伴随状语。

45. Though/Although　句意：尽管受伤严重，老妇人满含感激地看了看我的儿子。根据句意可知该处填Though/Although引导让步状语从句。

第三部分　写作(共两节，满分35分)
