分析 文章介绍了感恩节是一个历史悠久的节日,在这一天人们会通过各种各样的方式来庆祝.

解答 ADBFG
21.A 上下文语境.由后面 一个问句Have you wanted to make special gifts?.得知,前句是提到感恩节人们 会互相赠送礼物,所以会有下句你打算制作什么样特殊的礼物?故选A.
22.D 上下文语境.根据该段的小标题Custom of Praying可知,这段是感恩节的祈祷习俗,与选项里offer various meal time prayers during the day相呼应,故选D.
23.B 概括总结.这段的第一句话Everyone follows the custom of family dinner and reunion every year提到的是在感恩节每个人都会家庭聚会,所以推出该段主题句为Custom of Family Dinner,故选B.
24.F 上下文语境.这段的小标题Custom of Decoration得知,该段主要是感恩节装饰的习俗,结合People beautify their homes…人们装饰家等这些信息,故选F.
25.G 上下文语境.根据前句Thanksgiving is a day when people send loving messages and warm wishes to their relatives可知,感恩节人们互赠表达爱的信息和祝福,所以It is a day of expressing their feelings 这是一个表达爱的节日,符合语境.

9.I went up to my mother's bedroom after her death and found a box full of papers.Inside was a letter."Dearest Andrew,"it began,"there was never a right time to tell you."
Along with the letter was my adoption paperwork-"Parents:unknown"-and two newspapers.The first described a newborn baby,wrapped in a pink blanket,discovered on a doorstep by a paperboy.The second was from a year later,reporting that the baby was still in a children's home,yet to be adopted.
It was a shock.My childhood was happy; my adoptive father died when I was eight,but my mother made sure I couldn't have had a more loving home.I didn't do anything about trying to find out my birth parents for 15 years.However,there were so many questions.Why did my mother abandon me?Did she get into trouble?I didn't feel angry with her for leaving me,but I wanted to know more about the circumstances surrounding my birth.
I started to research my history and went on local television news.Amazingly,a man called Ronnie got in touch with the TV station,saying I reminded him of his father,Angus.We met up and I was surprised to see a man 20 years my senior.We arranged a DNA test.The results were positive-Ronnie was my half-brother.
Ronnie told me that my father would have been 60when I was born.He died before I started my search.My father was having an affair with a young woman during the year of my birth,but she is now married with her own family and I should respect her privacy.I would like my questions answered,but not at the expense of her happiness."Abandoned"is such a sensitive word,but I don't feel any sadness or rejection,because I don't know the circumstances of my birth.Instead,I feel unique.

5.Do you like shopping?Or does the thought of wandering round the shops fill you with terror?For some of us,shopping is an enjoyable way of spending our spare time and our money.For me,it's something I would rather avoid.Thank goodness for the Internet!It's more convenient to buy CDs,electrical items,even food,from the comfort of your sofa.But that's not the only reason:price is an important factor.We can buy goods and services cheaper online.But sometimes the problem is knowing what to buy.This has led to a type of shopping called"showrooming".
Showrooming is something I've done.I will go to a shop to see,touch and try out products but then go home and buy them online at a lower price.I'm not alone in doing this.Research by a company called Foolproof,found 24%of people showroomed while Christmas shopping in 2013.
Amy Cashman,Head of Technology at TNS UK,says the reasons for this new shopping habit are that"people are lacking time,lacking money and they want security about the products they are buying."She explains that consumers are not only shopping online at home but they are using the Internet in store or on their smartphones to shop around.
But does this mean technology will kill shops?Certainly shops will change.They will have to offer more competitive prices or encourage people to buy more by giving store discounts or free gifts.
We mustn't forget that buying in a shop means you can get expert advice from the sales assistant and you can get good aftercare.It's good to speak to a real human rather than look at a faceless computer screen but at least by showrooming,you get the best of both worlds!
8.The two questions in Paragraph 1 are raised toB
A.give two examples                   
B.introduce the topic
C.compare different opinions          
D.get answers from readers
9.What does showrooming mean in the text?A
A.Trying in shops and buying online.
B.Showing products in a room.
C.Buying something in a store.
D.Shopping on the Internet.
10.What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?C
A.Online shops will disappear.
B.Free gifts will surely promote sales.
C.Shops need necessary changes.
D.Shops will be replaced by online shops.
11.The author's attitude towards showrooming isD.
A.critical             B.negative         C.casual       D.supportive.
