Period ThreeLesson 3The Advertising Game.阅读理解APeople in the United States honor their parents with two special days：Mothers Day，on the second Sunday in May，and Fathers Day，on the third Sunday in June.These days are set aside to show love and respect for parents.They raise their children and educate them to be responsible citizens.They give love and care.These two days offer an opportunity to think about the changing roles of mothers and fathers.More mothers now work outside the home.More fathers must help with child care.These two special days are celebrated in many different ways.On Mothers Day people wear carnations.A red one symbolizes a living mother.A white one shows that the mother is dead.Many people attend religious services to honor parents.It is also a day when people whose parents are dead visit the cemetery(公墓)On these days families get together at home，as well as in restaurants.They often have outdoor barbecues for Fathers Day.These are days of fun and good feelings and memories.Another tradition is to give cards and gifts.Children make them in school.Many people make their own presents.These are valued more than the ones bought in stores.It is not the value of the gift that is important，but it is “the thought that counts”Greeting card stores，florists，candy makers，bakeries，telephone companies，other stores do lots of business during these holidays.1Which is NOT a reason for children to show love and respect for parents?AParents bring up children.BParents give love and care to children.CParents educate children to be good persons.DParents pass away before children grow up.答案D解析细节理解题。A、B、C三项均是对父母敬重的原因，只有D项是不正确的。从第一段中“They raise their children and educate them to be responsible citizens.They give love and care.”得出答案。2What do you know from the passage?AMothers Day and Fathers Day are both in May.BFewer women worked outside the home in the past.CNot all the children respect their parents.DFathers are not as important as mothers at home.答案B解析细节理解题。从第一段第一句中的“Mothers Day，on the second Sunday in May，and Fathers Day，on the third Sunday in June.”可知这两个节日不在同一个月；从第一段倒数第二句“More mothers now work outside the home.”可知现在有更多的母亲在外工作，可以推出“以前有较少的妇女在外工作”，所以B项为正确答案；C、D两项中的说法文中并没有提到。3Which do you think is right about the underlined word “carnation”？AIt only has two kinds of color.BIt refers to the special clothes people wear on Mothers Day or Fathers Day.CIts a kind of flower showing love and best wishes.DPeople can wear carnations only on the second Sunday in May.答案C解析词义猜测题。从文章第二段可知carnation是康乃馨。4On Mothers Day and Fathers Day，_.Apeople usually have family partiesBeveryone goes to visit the cemeteryCchildren always go to parents homeDhandmade cards are the most valuable gifts答案A解析细节理解题。认真阅读文章的第二段，尤其是“On these days families get together at home，as well as in restaurants.”这句话，可知答案为A项。由第二段中的“It is also a day when people whose parents are dead visit the cemetery(公墓)”可知，并不是所有人都去扫墓，故排除B项。C项文中未提到。由第三段的二至四句可知D项不准确，应该为handmade gifts。BEverybody loves to play board games sometimes，but it is surprising to know how long this pastime has been in existence.Some of the earliest board games are over 5,000 years old.The oldest is probably Senet，an Ancient Egyptian game which has been found in burials from before 3000 BC.The game involves an element of luck，and so it was thought by the Ancient Egyptians that those who won the game were protected by God.For this reason，games of Senet were often buried alongside the dead body，to be used on the dangerous journey to the afterlife.The game can also be seen on a number of paintings in tombs.The game board is set out as a grid of three by ten rows，and uses two sets of at least five pawns.The actual rules are unknown，although some historians have proposed rules which were used in the Senet sets available today.The Royal Game of Ur，also known as the Game of Twenty Squares，is another ancient game which dates back to the First Dynasty of Ur，in 2600 BC Mesopotamia.It was played with two sets of seven counters, one black and one white，and three foursided dice(骰子)Although the ancient rules are unknown，a stone tablet has been found which describes a reliable record of how the game was played in 177 BC176 BC.Both Senet and the Royal Game of Ur probably came into existence long before the game backgammon(西洋双陆棋)，which itself has a long history.The game of Nard，which existed in Iran in around 3000 BC，used two sets of fifteen counters，four dice and the same board as the one used in backgammon today，although the initial starting positions and rules are different.Similar games were played in Ancient Rome and India.5The text is meant to introduce_.Aa common origin of board gamesBthe unknown rules of board gamesCseveral kinds of earliest board gamesDthe newly discovered board games答案C解析主旨大意题。文中作者主要对几种早期的棋盘游戏做了简单介绍。故选C项。6What do we know about the game of Senet in Paragraph 1?AIts actual rules are still in use.BIt used to be played in tombs.CIt is probably the oldest board game.DIts design is closely related to God.答案C解析细节理解题。根据文章第一段中的“The oldest is probably Senet.”可知，Senet可能是最古老的棋盘游戏。故选C项。7What is the main idea of Paragraph 2?AA brief introduction to the Royal Game of Ur.BA reliable account of the First Dynasty of Ur.CThe recent discovery of an ancient board game.DThe original rules found in a stone tablet.答案A解析段落大意题。文章第二段主要介绍了the Royal Game of Ur的历史和玩法。故选A项。8What does the underlined word “itself” in the last paragraph refer to?AThe game of Senet.BThe Royal Game of Ur.CThe game backgammon.DThe game of Nard.答案C解析代词指代题。句中的which引导定语从句，指代上文的the game backgammon，itself又是which的同位语。故选C项。.完形填空About 1,000 students were having a final exam in a
