本文是记叙文。作者的父亲从美国给在德国的作者邮寄圣诞树，圣诞树分装在几个盒子中，然而装树干和底座的盒子迟迟没有到。正当作者全家着急时，一个陌生人在圣诞节前把树干和底座给作者送来，使作者过了一个愉快的圣诞节。【重点词语】 1.meanwhile(1)意思是“其间”，如：in the meanwhile, ill visit an old friend of mine.在这期间我将去拜访我的一位老朋友。(2)意思是“同时”，相当于at the same time，如：mother went shopping. meanwhile, i cleaned the house.母亲去买东西；我打扫屋子。2spot用作名词时，意思是“斑点”；用作动词时，意思是“认出；发现”，如：my father spotted several spelling mistakes in my composition.我父亲在我的作文里发现了好几个拼写错误。1c从下文可知，作者的父亲在美国给作者买了圣诞树并通过货船给作者邮寄过来，由此可知，父亲答应了作者的要求。2a从下文可知，作者的父亲把圣诞树分装在几个盒子里邮寄给作者。3d从下文有一个盒子还没有到可推断作者的全家很着急，in a panic意思是“着急，慌乱”。4b从上文all the boxes had arrived except for one可知，装着树干和底座的盒子还没有到，因此missing符合语境。5b根据上下文可知，作者缺少装树干和底座的盒子，这位工作人员发现它在柜台的下面。spot发现。6c此处表示海关标签上写的东西，习惯用read“写着”。7b这位工作人员想到无法将圣诞树树干和底座按时送达，他感到很抱歉。8a根据语境，这位工作人员无能为力，因为圣诞节期间邮寄业务暂停。9c根据语境，这位工作人员把这个盒子放到合适的架子上。10d从下文he ended up sharing a table可知，咖啡店人很多，很拥挤。11b根据上文，这位工作人员通过同桌的两个人的谈话发现，其中一个人驻扎在mannheim。12c这位工作人员想让同桌的人顺便把包裹给作者送去。13b根据下文，这位驻扎在mannheim的人要把圣诞树树干和底座亲自送到作者的家里，因此，他事实上是在扮演圣诞老人的角色。14a根据上文，这位送圣诞树树干和底座的人与作者素昧平生，是个陌生人。15d作者终于盼到了圣诞树树干和底座，作者在陌生人的好心帮助下度过了一个愉快的圣诞节，brighten“照亮；使心情愉快”，符合语境。.语法填空阅读下面短文，按照句子结构的语法性和上下文连贯的要求，在空格处填入一个适当的词或使用括号中词语的正确形式填空。we experience different forms of the suns energy every day.we can see its light and feel its_16_.the sun is the major source of energy for our planet.it causes the evaporation(蒸发)of water from the oceans and lakes.sunlight also provides the energy_17_(use)by green plants to make their own food.these green plants then provide_18_for all organisms(生物)on the earth.much of the energy that comes from the sun_19_reaches the earths surface.it is either reflected or_20_(absorb)by the gases in the upper atmosphere.of the energy that reaches the lower atmosphere, 30% is reflected by clouds or the earths surface.the_21_70% warms the surface of the planet, causes water to evaporate, _22_provides energy for the water cycle and weather.only a tiny part, approximately 0.023%, is actually used by green plants_23_(produce)food.many gases found in the atmosphere actually reflect heat energy escaping from the earths surface back to the earth.these gases act _24_the glass of a greenhouse in that they allow energy from the sun to enter but prevent energy from leaving._25_are therefore called greenhouse gases.答案及解析16warmth我们感受太阳光和它的温暖。warm的名词形式为warmth。17used能量是被绿色植物使用，故use用被动式。18food绿色植物自己生产食品，而它们又是其他生物的“食品”19never从下文看，太阳的绝大部分能量都消耗在太空中，因此此处用否定词。20absorbed太阳光被反射或吸收了21remaining前面讲30%，此处应该是“剩下的”70%。22andwarms, causes, provides三个动词之间是并列关系。23to produce0.023%的光能被用来生产食物。24like大气层中的气体就像(而不“是”)温室的玻璃。act like扮作。25they此处应填代替these gases的代词，用they。.阅读理解on the southern shore of lake erie sits the tiny town of
