【解析】

試題分析:這篇文章主要介紹了red紅色在很多美國用語表達中的文化意義。一方面,紅色用于表示快樂和驚喜,如a red-letter-day節(jié)日,假日,大喜日,紅色也可以表示歡迎,如rolling out the red carpet隆重地歡迎(熱忱接待);另一方面,紅色也可以表示不開心,如red-handed當(dāng)場,正在作案。

【1】happiness;句意:紅色可以用來表示快樂。這里show后面應(yīng)該填名詞,故填happiness。

【2】when;句意:這是特別的事情會發(fā)生的一天。這里需要一個連接詞來修飾a day,所以用when來修飾表示時間,故填when。

【3】For;句意:近六百年來,教堂的日歷都有紅色的標(biāo)示,有特別的節(jié)日。這里for表示一段時間,故填For。

【4】a;句意:紅包日是人們會感到異常開心的一天。根據(jù)句意,這里應(yīng)該填一天,故填a。

【5】or;句意:這是你一直在等待的一天,例如,可能是一個婚禮的一天,或者是充滿快樂驚喜的一天。根據(jù)句意,這里應(yīng)該填或者表示一種可能,故填or。

【6】because/when;句意:你在買彩票中贏了錢,你會告訴你的朋友昨天是紅包日。這里可以用because連接表示因果,或者用when連接表示時間狀語,故填because/when。

【7】commonly;句意:滾紅毯是另外一個常聽說的表達。這里括號中是common,這里要求修飾heard,應(yīng)該用副詞修飾動詞,故填commonly。

【8】represents;句意:這表達了一種熱烈的歡迎。這里括號中是represent,在which后應(yīng)該用第三人稱單數(shù)形式,故填represents。

【9】its;句意:一個城市會在棒球隊贏得冠軍回來后給它的棒球隊滾紅毯。這里its表示它的在這里指這個城市的,故填its。

【10】performing;句意:被發(fā)現(xiàn)red-handed是被發(fā)現(xiàn)正在做不好的行為。這里括號中是perform,應(yīng)該用現(xiàn)在分詞表示當(dāng)時正在進行的動作,故填performing。

【題目】Larry was on another of his underwater expeditions(探險)but this time, it was different. He decided to take his daughter along with him. She was only ten years old. This would be her first trip with her father on what he had always been famous for.

Larry first began diving when he was his daughter’s age. Similarly, his father had taken him along on one of his expeditions. Since then, he had never looked back. Larry started out by renting diving suits from the small diving shop just along the shore. He had hated them. They were either too big or too small. Then, there was the instructor. He gave him a short lesson before allowing him into the water with his father. He had made an exception. Larry would never have been able to go down without at least five hours of theory and another similar number of hours on practical lessons with a guide. Children his age were not even allowed to dive.

After the first expedition, Larry’s later diving adventures only got better and better. There was never a dull moment. In his black and blue suit and with an oxygen tank fastened on his back, Larry dived from boats into the middle of the ocean. Dangerous areas did not prevent him from continuing his search. Sometimes, he was limited to a cage underwater but that did not bother him. At least, he was still able to take photographs of the underwater creatures

Larry’s first expedition without his father was in the Cayman Islands. There were numerous diving spots in the area and Larry was determined to visit all of them. Fortunately for him, a man offered to take him around the different spots for free. Larry did not even know what the time was, how many spots he dived into or how many photographs he had taken. The diving spots afforded such a wide array of fish and sea creatures that Larry saw more than thirty varieties of creatures.

Larry looked at his daughter. She looked as excited as he had been when he was her age. He hoped she would be able to continue the family tradition. Already, she looked like she was much braver than Larry had been then. This was the key to a successful underwater expedition.

【1】In what way was this expedition different for Larry?

A. His daughter had grown up.

B. He had become a famous diver.

C. His father would dive with him.

D. His daughter would dive with him.

【2】What can be inferred from Paragraph 2?

A. Larry had some privileges.

B. Larry liked the rented diving suits.

C. Divers had to buy diving equipment.

D. Ten-year-old children were permitted to dive.

【3】Why did Larry have to stay in a cage underwater sometimes?

A.To protect himself from danger.

B.To dive into the deep water.

C.To admire the underwater view.

D.To take photos more conveniently.

【4】What did Larry expect his daughter to do?

A.Become a successful diver.

B.Make a good diving guide.

C.Take a lot of photos underwater.

D.Have longer hours of training.

Money Matters

Parents should help their children understand money. 【1】 So you may start talking about money when your child shows an interest in buying things, candy or toys, for example.

1. The basic function of money

Begin explaining the basic function of money by showing how people trade money for goods or services. It is important to show your child how money is traded for the things he wants to have. If he wants to have a toy, give him the money and let him hand the money to the cashier(收銀員). 2 When your child grows a bit older and understands the basic function of money, you can start explaining more ways of using money.

2. Money lessons

Approach money lessons with openness and honesty. 3 If you must say no to a child’s request to spend money, explain, “You have to make a choice between this and that toy.”

3. 4

Begin at the grocery store. Pick out two similar brands of a product –a name-brand butter and a generic(無商標(biāo)產(chǎn)品), for example.You can show your child how to make choices between different brands of a product so that you can save money. 5 If he chooses the cheaper brand, allow him to make another purchase with the money saved. Later, you may explain how more expensive choice leaves less money for other purchases.

A. Wise decision

B. The value of money

C. Permit the child to choose between them.

D. Tell your child why he can –or cannot –have certain things.

E. Ask yourself what things that cost money are most important to you.
