Time to give thanks

When it comes to Thanksgiving, turkey may be the first thing that comes to mind． It’s the right picture, but it’s not complete．

Celebrated on the fourth Thursday in November every year, Thanksgiving Day is a time for thanksgiving and feasts．It’s about expressing your gratitude to the important people and all the good things in your life．

Americans celebrate Thanksgiving with much warmth and keep many traditional customs．Here we introduce two of the rules Americans typically follow on this day．

1．Time for prayers and paying back

Thanksgiving Day has been associated with prayers in church and in homes for centuries．Attending church prayer services in the morning is the first step of many celebrators on Thanksgiving Day．The churches provide worship (禮拜) services and organize special events for the occasion．

Before Thanksgiving meals, some families gather together and read prayers to thank God for his kindness and the gifts he has bestowed upon (給予) them in the form of friends and family．

Some people also do voluntary community work on this day, as a way of paying back．

2．Family reunions and showing gratitude

Like China’s Spring Festival, preparing a big meal and bringing the family together at home is a long-standing tradition of Thanksgiving．Distances don’t really matter as relatives return home to be with their family, no matter how far away．

【寫作內(nèi)容】

1．以約30個詞概括上文的主要內(nèi)容。

2．以約120個詞談?wù)勀銓κ菚r候感恩了的想法，內(nèi)容包括：

(1) 你認為我們中國人有沒有必要過“感恩節(jié)”？為什么？

(2) 以你自己的經(jīng)歷或者身邊的人為例，闡述重視感恩的必要性；

(3) 總結(jié)你的觀點。

【寫作要求】

1．作文中可以使用實例來支持你的論點，也可以參照閱讀材料的內(nèi)容論述，但不得直接引用原文中的句子；

2．作文中不能出現(xiàn)真實姓名和學校名稱。

【答案】This passage is mainly about the customs of a western traditional festival, Thanksgiving Day, which mainly includes the two rules that Americans usually abide by during the festival．After reading the passage, I had a better understanding of Thanksgiving Day．In my opinion, since the festival has a lovely and healthy theme, why not do as the Americans do? Don’t you think giving thanks to things and people around us is very necessary? We can’t deny it is a good chance to spread kindness and consideration．Take myself for example．Because I am busy in studying on weekdays, I have little time to look after my parents, which makes me guilty．In order to reward them and make them relaxed on the weekend, I get up early in the morning and prepare breakfast for them willingly, which makes them delighted． So it is vital for us to have a grateful heart and show our thanks to anything good and any person that is nice．

【題目】根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。有兩項為多余選項。

【1】 From 18－25, according to I.Q. scores；but you are wiser and more experienced with increasing age. You are smartest in your 20's; around 30, your memory begins to go down, particularly your ability to perform mathematical computations(數(shù)學計算). 【2】 Your vocabulary at the age of 45, for example, is three times as great as when you graduated from college. At 60, your brain has almost four times as much information as it did at the age of 21.

【3】 You have the best physical sense of yourself from 15 to 24; the best professional sense from 40 to 49. Before the age of 24, we believe that our happiest years are yet to come；over 30，we believe that they are behind us. A National Health survey agrees: after the age of 30, we become more realistic and do not view happiness as a goal in itself. If we keep our health, achieve professional and emotional goals, happiness, we feel, will follow.

【4】 Generally between 30 and 39, but the peak (頂峰)varies with different professions(職業(yè)). Mozart wrote a symphony and four sonatas by the age of 8, and Mendelssohn composed his bestknown work A Midsummer Night's Dream at 17, but most of the great music was written by men between 33 and 39.

Though the peak in most fields comes early, most Nobel Prize winners did their top research in their late 20's and 30's—creative people continue to produce work with high quality(質(zhì)量) throughout their lives. 【5】

A. When are you most creative ?

B. When are you happiest?

C. When are you smartest?

D. Do you know what I.Q. refers to?

E. But your I.Q. for other tasks goes up.

F. Creative people usually produce a lot of works.

G. For the “wellconditioned mind”, there is no upper limit.（限制）

Depressed people can be very difficult to be around， and yet they need more than the usual amount of support and understanding from their friends and family.

The anger and lack of concern that a depressed person may have for people close to him or her can be very disturbing to someone who's trying to help. _____【1】______. Withdrawal from others can make it nearly impossible to encourage a depressed person to enter into activities that may help pull him or her out of the depression.

While being supportive and understanding， the friend of a family member must be careful not to do too many things for the depressed person.

【題目】閱讀理解。

The kids in this village wear dirty,ragged clothes.They sleep beside cows and sheep in huts made of sticks and mud.They have no school.Yet they all can chant the English alphabet,and some can make words.

The key to their success:20 tablet computers(平板電腦) dropped off in their Ethiopian village in February by a U.S.group called One Laptop Per Child.

The goal is to find out whether kids using today’s new technology can teach themselves to read in places where no schools or teachers exist.The Massachusetts Institute of Technology researchers analyzing the project data say they’re already amazed.“What I think has already happened is that the kids have already learned more than they would have in one year of kindergarten,”said Matt Keller,who runs the Ethiopia program.

The fastest learner—and the first to turn on one of the tablets—is 8-year-old Kelbesa Negusse.The device’s camera was disabled to save memory,yet within weeks Kelbesa had figured out its workings and made the camera work.He called himself a lion,a marker of accomplishment in Ethiopia.

With his tablet,Kelbesa rearranged the letters HSROE into one of the many English animal names he knows.Then he spelled words on his own.“Seven months ago he didn’t know any English.That’s unbelievable,”said Keller.

The project aims to get kids to a stage called “deep reading,”where they can read to learn.It won’t be in Amharic,Ethiopia’s first language,but in English,which is widely seen as the ticket to higher paying jobs.

【1】How does the Ethiopia program benefit the kids in the village?

A.It trains teachers for them.

B.It contributes to their self-study.

C.It helps raise their living standards.

D.It provides funds for building schools.

【2】What can we infer from Keller’s words in Paragraph 3?

A.They need more time to analyze data.

B.More children are needed for the research.

C.He is confident about the future of the project.

D.The research should be carried out in kindergartens.

【3】It amazed Keller that with the tablet Kelbesa could .

A.learn English words quickly

B.draw pictures of animals

C.write letters to researchers

D.make phone calls to his friends

【4】What is the aim of the project?

A.To offer Ethiopians higher paying jobs.

B.To make Amharic widely used in the world.

C.To help Ethiopian kids read to learn in English.

D.To assist Ethiopians in learning their first language.
