from1.提示:根据该句前半句的意思可知，奶奶家没有电，没有自来水，没有“我”认为的生活中的好东西。第一个谓语和宾语had no.和本空白处应该填的词意思相同。答案:b2.提示:用also表示“附加”。still表示“依然还”，在此可表示现在还没计划，可能晚些时候会做，很显然不符合上下文的意思。答案:a3. 提示:remove“取代，拿下”，此处指把自己家的圣诞树上挂着的饰物取下来。replace“取代，替代”，collect“有选择地搜集”。答案:c4. 提示:along with“一起，一块儿”。此处指母亲把圣诞树上及做一顿完整的火鸡正餐所需要的全部材料一块包装齐备。答案:c5. 提示:complete“完整的，完全的”，此时表现了母亲考虑问题周到、细致，把所需要的东西一应俱全准备完备。答案:b6. 提示:dawn动词，意为“天开始亮，破晓（begin to grow light），开始显露出来”。圣诞节的黎明来的完美，阳光照在刚下的雪上，熠熠生辉。答案:a7. 提示:景色迷人，一切是如此美好，但主人公的心情非常不好。but表示语气上的转折，天气的晴朗反衬出主人公心情的阴郁。答案:a8. 提示:make ones way to固定短语，“朝走去”。其他三个选项均可以和make构成搭配，但不符合语境。答案:b9. 提示:“预料这个圣诞节将会是所度过的最糟糕的圣诞节。”句尾的even意为“曾经”，该句相当于this is going to be the worst christmas we have ever had.答案:d10. 提示:从下文的谈话中可以看出奶奶见到他们非常吃惊，她没有料到这个时候，会有人到她家来。答案:c11. 提示:anyone用在否定句中表示“任何人”。答案:a12. 提示:that代表上文奶奶说的内容。that常用来代替上文所提到的内容，this指下面要说的内容，it可以指代某个具体的事物。答案:c13. 提示:why引导的句子作表语，意为“这就是我们带了一只火鸡的原因”。答案:b14. 提示:从语境和insist这个词来看，需用must，表示“一定要，必须”。答案:d15. 提示:全句的意思是:我们必须有一棵圣诞树，不然的话，这些装饰物往哪儿放呢？otherwise“否则，不然的话”，meanwhile“同时”，therefore“所以”，however“但是”。答案:d16. 提示:屋子里放上刚砍来的圣诞树，装饰物被挂在了树上，很快屋里散发出一股清新的气味。smell作不及物动词有“发出的气味”之意,become, change都有“变化”的意思，become后可跟形容词，但此处意思不符。答案：b17. 提示:take on意为“开始具有，呈现”。“房子里到处呈现出节日的气氛。”show up“显眼，突出”；carry on“继续执行”；light up“（表情）开朗起来”。答案:c18. 提示:until用在肯定句中表示动作一直进行到时间状语从句所表示的时间结束。此句意为:直到妈妈带着最后的惊喜进来，我们才想到吃甜点。答案:a19. 提示:妈妈做的冒着火苗的布丁让奶奶想起了她的过去，她的家乡，所以奶奶高兴得流出了眼泪。joy“快乐，高兴”。其他选项均不合题意。答案:b20. 提示:我也禁不住流下泪来。keep the tears from ones eyes相当于keep the tears back from ones eyes，“阻止泪水流下来”；keep tears back“抑制住眼泪”，但在此和eyes无法连接。答案:d阅读理解。阅读下列短文，从每题所给的a.b.c和d项中，选出最佳选项。china has recently been faced with serious issues of product safety.

who disagree with them.those people，say skeptics，spread nothing but bad news about the environment.the “ecoguilt”brought on by the discouraging news about our planet gives rise to the popularity of skeptics as people search for more comforting worldviews.perhaps that explains why a new book by bjorn lomborg received so much publicity.that book ，the skeptical environmentalist, declares that it measures the “real state of the world”as fine. of course ，another explanation is the deep pockets of some big businesses with special interests. indeed, mr. lomborgs views are similar to those of some industryfunded organizations, which start huge activities through the media to confuse the public about issues like global warming.so it was strange to see mr. lomborgs book go largely unchallenged in the media though his beliefs were contrary to most scientific opinions. one national newspaper in canada ran a number of articles and reviews full of words of praise, even with the conclusion that “after lomborg, the environmental movement will begin to die down.”such onesided views should have immediately been challenged. but only a different review appeared in nature, a respected science magazine with specific readership. the review remarked that mr. lomborgs “preference for unexamined materials is incredible(不可信的)”a critical (批判的)eye is valuable, and the media should present information in such a way that could allow people to make informed decisions. unfortunately, that is often inaccessible as blocked by the desire to be shocking or to defend some special interests. people might become halfblind before a world partially exhibited by the media. thats a shame, because matters concerning the health of the planet are far too important to be treated lightly.本文讲述了怀疑论者不承认人类活动对环境造成的危胁，认为地球状况是良好的，这迎合了一些追求利益的商业公司。但是关系地球健康的问题是相当重要的，人们一定要严肃对待。1. according to the passage, which of the following may be regarded as “skeptics”？a. people who agree on the popularity of “ecoguilt”b. people who disbelieve the serious situation of our planet.c. people who dislike the harmful effect of human activities.d. people who spread comforting news to protect our environment.答案：b。细节理解题。根据短文第一段可知，怀疑论者不承认人类活动对环境的影响。短文第二段第二句话中提到，他们认为世界的真正状态是好的，由此可知b项正确。2. which
