【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文，内容为感恩节的介绍。1.

根据上句ThefourthThursdayinNovemberisanationaldayofthanksgivingintheUnitedStates.以及后句Itdatesbacktothe17thcenturywhensomeoftheearliestEnglishsettlersarrivedinNorthAmerica.（它起始于17世纪，那时一些英国移民最早来到美国。）可知，空处主要叙述感恩节传统的由来。C项（这是一个很古老的传统。）承上启下，符合语境。故选C。2.​根据上句中suchasVietnam’sTrungThucelebrationandHomowo,theannualyamfestivalinGhana.可知，此处提到具体的庆祝活动，所以空处为活动庆典的补充。B项（尽管如此，感恩节的火鸡晚餐、家庭聚会、橄榄球比赛和游行仍有一些美国特色。）承接上文，符合语境。故选B。3.根据空后两句Withournationdealingwithcrises...theyear’sloominguncertaintieslikelywillbeonmanymindstoday.以及PresidentAbrahamLincolnproclaimedthefirstofficialThanksgiving...theAmericanCivilWar.可知，空处主要叙述与感恩节伴随的一些可能发生的事情和曾经的历史。E项（这也是人们回顾过去一年，进行评估和思考未来的时候。）引出下文，符合语境。故选E。4.根据上一段提到面对需要应对的问题和危机，结合下句Surroundedbyfriendsandtheirfamily,today,asinthepast,theywillenter....inafreeland.可知，空处表示转折，即使遇到困难也会积极乐观面对。D项（但是像他们的殖民祖先一样，美国人很乐观。）承上启下，符合语境。故选D。5.根据上句Surroundedbyfriendsandtheirfamily,today,asinthepast,theywillenter...inafreeland.可知，家人和朋友围坐在一起，感谢生活，憧憬未来，充满乐观，所以空处主要叙述人们在感恩节是快乐的，是充满感恩之情的。G项（在感恩节，人们表达他们对生活的祝福和光明的未来的感谢。）承接上文，符合语境。故选A。学习理解A3提取概括第二节1.题干问的是感恩节在美国的起源。根据题干定位到文章的第1段的第3句和第4句话，意思为“它起始于17世纪，那时一些英国移民最早来到美国。在第一次成功地获得了丰收之后，他们停下来庆祝他们的馈赠，并感谢他们在当时的荒野度过了第一个可怕的冬天”。所以本题的答案为“TheoriginofThanksgivingDaydatesbacktothe17thcenturywhensomeoftheearliestEnglishsettlersarrivedinNorthAmerica.Aftertheirfirstsuccessfulharvest,theypausedtocelebratetheirbountyandgivethanksforsurvivingtheirfirstterriblewinterinwhatwasthenawilderness.”A3提取概括2.题干问的是感恩节与独立日的共同之处。根据题干定位到文章的第2段，该段的最后一句话阐述了感恩节与独立日的共同之处，该句的意思为“连同7月4日，这一美国从英国独立的日子，它是一个真正的全国性节日，所有公民都有一个共同的目的，不分宗教、政治或民族信仰”。所以，本题的答案为“Theyarebothtrulynationalholidaysthatincludeallcitizensinamonpurpose
