Answer 1

分析 幾千年來，風(fēng)箏一直被所有年齡段的居住在世界很多地方的人們制作和放飛．風(fēng)箏尤其在亞洲國家一直很流行．在韓國，人們在新年的剛開始幾天放風(fēng)箏作為一種慶祝．在日本，放風(fēng)箏是在每年五月舉行的男孩的節(jié)日上的一個重要組成部分．在中國，每一年的一天，當(dāng)作風(fēng)箏節(jié)來慶祝．在這些特別的風(fēng)箏慶典上，成千上萬的風(fēng)箏被放飛．它們被做成各種形狀、各種顏色、各種大�。�有些形狀像魚，蝴蝶或鳥．它們?nèi)�都非常亮麗和多彩�?br />大多數(shù)風(fēng)箏愛好者放風(fēng)箏只是為了好玩，但認(rèn)真的風(fēng)箏放飛者會參加比賽．
風(fēng)箏也被用于實際（實用的）的目的，所以美國國家氣候局利用風(fēng)箏來收集關(guān)于風(fēng)和天氣的信息．一些用于這項工作使用的風(fēng)箏攜帶科學(xué)儀器，飛行高度超過20000英尺．
要放風(fēng)箏，通常需要在風(fēng)中奔跑幾英尺，當(dāng)風(fēng)箏開始上升時，釋放更多的線并拉它．
不要在樹或電線附近放風(fēng)箏，或者不要在有低空飛行的飛機的地方放風(fēng)箏．

解答 81．根據(jù)第二段的這句話Most kite fans fly their kites just for fun，but serious kite fliers take part in contests．可知，大部分人只把放風(fēng)箏當(dāng)作娛樂，只有少部分人參加比賽，故填寫答案No，they don't．
82．這句話應(yīng)重點根據(jù)最后一段的這句話Do not fly a kite near trees or electric lines，or in an area where there are low-flying planes．可知不要在樹或電線附近放風(fēng)箏，或者不要在有低空飛行的飛機的地方放風(fēng)箏．故填寫答案We can't fly a kite near trees or electric lines，or in an area where there are low-flying planes．
83．翻譯這句話時重點要把時態(tài)翻譯出來，這句話用的是現(xiàn)在完成時，強調(diào)一直延續(xù)的一種狀態(tài)，故翻譯為"風(fēng)箏在亞洲國家一直特別流行．/尤其在亞洲國家，風(fēng)箏一直很流行．"
84．這句話重點要把被動語態(tài)翻譯出來，注意被動語態(tài)的結(jié)構(gòu)：be動詞+過去分詞，表被動．故翻譯為"它們被做成各種形狀、各種顏色、各種大小．"
85．這篇文章都是圍繞風(fēng)箏這一中心話題展開的，故標(biāo)題應(yīng)與風(fēng)箏有關(guān)，所以填寫答案Kite/Kites/Flying a kite/Flying kites
