Unit 3 Celebration(A)(35分钟).阅读理解AIf you are a fruit grower -or would like to become one -take advantage of Apple Day to see whats around.Its called Apple Day but in practice its more like Apple Month.The day itself is on October 21,but since it has caught on,events now spread out over most of October around Britain.Visiting an apple event is a good chance to see,and often taste,a wide variety of apples.To people who are used to the limited choice of apples such as Golden Delicious and Royal Gala in supermarkets,it can be quite an eye opener to see the range of classical apples still in existence,such as Decio which was grown by the Romans.Although it doesnt taste of anything special,its still worth a try,as is the knobbly(多疙瘩的)Cats Head which is more of a curiosity than anything else.There are also varieties developed to suit specific local conditions.One of the very best varieties for eating quality is Orleans Reinette,but youll need a warm,sheltered place with perfect soil to grow it,so its a pipe dream for most apple lovers who fall for it.At the events,you can meet expert growers and discuss which ones will best suit your conditions,and because these are family affairs,children are well catered for with apple-themed fun and games.Apple Days are being held at all sorts of places with an interest in fruit,including stately gardens and commercial orchards(果园).If you want to have a real orchard experience,try visiting the National Fruit Collection at Brogdale,near Faversham in Kent.1.What can people do at the apple events?A.Attend experts lectures.B.Visit fruit-loving families.C.Plant fruit trees in an orchard.D.Taste many kinds of apples.2.What can we learn about Decio?A.It is a new variety.B.It has a strange look.C.It is rarely seen now.D.It has a special taste.3.What does the underlined phrase “a pipe dream” in Paragraph 3 mean?A.A practical idea.B.A vain hope.C.A brilliant plan.D.A selfish desire.4.What is the authors purpose in writing the text?A.To show how to grow apples.B.To introduce an apple festival.C.To help people select apples.D.To promote apple research.BThanksgiving Day,a holiday designed to give thanks and blessings for a good harvest,is drawing near.But are you still having trouble with what gifts you should give?So lets take a look at some of the different gifts being sent to people from different countries,and maybe you will be able to find some inspiration.AmericansIn 1941,the United States Congress had passed a law,ruling the fourth Thursday of November to be Thanksgiving Day.The make-up parade (游行) is hard to miss,therefore cosmetics (化妆品),such as cosmetic mirrors,skincare products and sunglasses,may be good choices for gifts.EgyptiansIn ancient Egypt,Harvest Festival was celebrated in honor of their harvest god Min during the spring season because that was when their harvest season would fall.The festival starts with a parade,followed by banquets,a ball and sports.Because music and movies are very popular here,CDs and DVDs are always great gifts.Moreover,art is also welcomed.One thing that should be noted is that blue and yellow colors need to be avoided since they are forbidden in the country.ChineseThe Chinese have the traditional festival “Mid-Autumn Festival”,celebrated by families on the 15th of August in Chinese lunar calendar.Mooncakes and fruits are common gifts.But believe it or not,it is becoming a trend for an increasing number of young Chinese to celebrate the Western Thanksgiving.Carnations are a good present for mothers during the festival.Gloves are also a good idea,especially as the weather is cold.JewsSukkot,a Jewish festival celebrated for the autumn harvest,has a history of over 3,000 years.During the eight-day of Sukkot,Jews build many cabins,using branches,to memorize their ancestors chancel(圣所).A feast is held during the second day in these specific cabins.Hanukkah is the original name of the festival.Thus lamps and lanterns are always in proper use.In addition,silk is considered to be the ideal gift for this holiday.5.Which countries hold some parades during the festivals?A.Egypt and Jewish countries.B.America and Egypt.C.China and Egypt.D.China and America.6.What will you buy as Thanksgiving gifts to visit a Jewish friend?A.Sunglasses.B.CDs.C.Gloves.D.Silk.7.What can we learn from the passage?A.Mooncakes have not been popular as before.B.Chinese people wont buy flowers as gifts in the festival.C.Gloves are not so welcome as fruits.D.Young Chinese people prefer to celebrate the Western Thanksgiving.8.The best title of this passage should be.A.How to buy Thanksgiving giftsB.A variety of Thanksgiving giftsC.The function of Thanksgiving giftsD.How to send Thanksgiving gifts导学号07020010.七选五根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。We all,at one time or another,have pretended to be a rock star,singing and dancing along to our favourite song.Most of us have done this in the privacy of our own rooms when we were kids and as adults,in the privacy of our homes.1!I turn on the radio,find a song that I can sing along and pretty soon my arms are in the air and I am moving along to the rhythm.Most of the time,I do this on my way to work.Yes,that is true.I will be in my nice work clothes,jamming while driving or stopping at a traffic light.2.Personally,I love to get lost in the rhythm of a song which leads me to share with you the importance of being silly!The definition of the word silly,according to the dictionary,is:stupid,foolish and nonsensical.3.So they walk around all seriously,which in all honesty is foolish!No one is perfect;I repeat:no one is perfect.I dont care how educated,how thin,how beautiful,how simple,how frugal,how rich,and so on.No one is perfect!4?Life is so short.You never know when this beautiful journey will be over,so why waste a single second on being so full of rigidity(刻板)?Here is a quote,which I think says it all and is a great recipe for life:“Dance as though no one is watching you.Love as though you have never been hurt before.”5,and we had no care in the world so we could do things without worrying about how we appeared to others.However,as we grew up,we lost that childlike innocence.What a pity!A.Are adults the most foolish group of peopleB.So why pretend to be something you are notC.I know many people do not want to look foolishD.I get weird looks from some people and others laughE.When we were kids,we had no idea of what limitations wereF.I sing my favourite,and sometimes I forgot the traffic lightsG.Me?I love to do that when I
