【解析】

本文主要介紹了圣誕節(jié)的圣誕樹(shù)傳統(tǒng)。

【1】句意：有許多的圣誕樹(shù)傳統(tǒng)。

根據(jù)上句和下文，可知都在講述圣誕樹(shù)的事情，而且名詞修飾名詞時(shí)，第一個(gè)名詞不需用復(fù)數(shù)形式，故填tree。

【2】句意：家庭成員會(huì)聚在一起去林場(chǎng)上挑一棵他們最喜歡的樹(shù)。

由下面的“so it’s fun to discuss this with family members and find the best one”可知，是和家庭成員一起去挑選的，而且will后跟動(dòng)詞原形，故填get

【3】句意：一些林場(chǎng)會(huì)為你坎倒這棵樹(shù)。

根據(jù)第一句“Having a Christmas tree in your home is one of the best parts of Christmas”可知挑選出來(lái)的樹(shù)是要帶回家的，所以林場(chǎng)需要幫你砍坎倒，cut down坎倒，固定短語(yǔ)，故填down。

【4】句意：其他林場(chǎng)會(huì)讓你自己砍樹(shù)。

前面有some tree farms，而some…other…一些……另一些，固定搭配，故填other。

【5】句意：你把樹(shù)帶回家之后，就開(kāi)始裝飾它吧。

根據(jù)第一句“Having a Christmas tree in your home is one of the best parts of Christmas”可知，需要把砍下來(lái)的樹(shù)帶回家，故填home。

【6】句意：但是對(duì)于圣誕樹(shù)也有一些爭(zhēng)論：真樹(shù)是否比假樹(shù)更好。

根據(jù)后面的fake trees可知前面填寫(xiě)反義詞，故填real。

【7】句意：他們不需要被澆水。

根據(jù)前面的fake trees假樹(shù)，可知這些樹(shù)是不需要澆水的，不必做某事，don’t need to do，故填need。

【8】句意：它們可以?xún)?chǔ)藏而且重復(fù)利用很多年。

for后面加一段時(shí)間，由于是假樹(shù)，所以可以使用很多年，而且前面是many，需要填寫(xiě)復(fù)數(shù)形式，故填years。

【9】句意：它們可以持續(xù)很久，但是如果把它們?nèi)拥�，�?huì)對(duì)環(huán)境有害。

根據(jù)前面“Fake trees are made out of plastic (塑料).”可知假樹(shù)是塑料制成的，被扔掉的話(huà)對(duì)環(huán)境不好，be bad for對(duì)……有害，故填bad。

【10】句意：在一天的學(xué)習(xí)之后回到家，聞到松樹(shù)發(fā)出的氣味會(huì)很棒。

根據(jù)后面的scent氣味可知，是動(dòng)作“聞，嗅”，由于是it is adj. to do sth.需填動(dòng)詞原形，故填smell。

首字母填空需要根據(jù)上下文合理的推測(cè)。例如第9題，根據(jù)前文假樹(shù)是塑料制成的，推斷出扔掉假樹(shù)對(duì)環(huán)境有害；例如第10題，根據(jù)scent可知填動(dòng)作“聞”。
