It’s a goal for millions and millions of families every year——keep the Christmas spending within a certain amount, but can still afford the gifts that your loved ones will enjoy. Never has this concern been greater in recent years than right now. Even so, there are several things that you can do to help.

Hit the sales.

No one wants to get up at four o’clock in the morning and fight to get the best deal on Black Friday, and it’s surely very tough to pick up the courage and get out there in the cold for a good deal, but sometimes——it can be well worth. Many retailers(零售商) offer specials all through the day——and some even offer online Black Friday specials, so you may still be able to get a great deal on Black Friday.

Pay close attention to advertisements.

Once the Christmas shopping season is coming, retailers hungry for business will do just about whatever to get you in the store. Pay very close attention to weekly advertisements of sales among the major retailers and you may be lucky enough to find different prices for the same thing in different shops.

Shop online.

Some of us don’t like running from store to store in order to get the best price on the perfect gift, and some of us don’t like to go out in the cold at all——thankfully for us, we can do online shopping.

The world of online shopping lets people visit all the major retailers as well as some specialty stores that could only be found on the Internet. Customers can find exactly what they are looking for, at the best possible price without ever having to leave the house. With traditional Christmas shopping consumers are sometimes limited to what’s left in stock if they wait too long to get to a particular store.

The first paragraph implies that ______.

       A. nowadays not many people can afford expensive gifts

       B. recently many people don’t want to spend money on gifts

       C. Christmas is a time to make our loved ones enjoy their gifts

       D. Christmas is a time to make us feel free to buy our loved ones gifts

In the writer’s opinion, it is rewarding on Black Friday _____.

       A. if the weather is not very cold         B. if we don’t have to fight for the best deals

       C. if we don’t have to get up early           D. If we get what we want at a good price

The underlined word “specials” means_______.

       A. some experts in shopping             

       B. certain things for especially low price

       C. some kind of help for a certain customer

       D. things that can only be found on Friday

We can have more choices _____.

       A. on Black Friday               B. in a particular store

       C. on the Internet                 D. from retailers

閱讀理解 (共20小題;每小題2分,滿分40分)

閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C和D)中,選出最佳選項。

Several times each year the Queen gives afternoon tea parties at which guests are served tiny cakes filled with cream from her own cows. Cakes and sandwiches are brought in by footmen, yet you never see the Queen touch a thing. She simply sits beside a big silver plate, pouring cups of

tea for everyone and carefully avoiding the cakes.

  At cocktail parties the Queen moves from group to group, chatting informally, and manages to make one glass of diet drink to last an entire evening.

Tours abroad are difficult because hosts seem to believe the warmth of their welcome must be shown with wonderful state banquets(宴會). But the Queen has perfected the art of appearing to enjoy her meal without actually eating much.

During one visit to the Pacific islands of Tonga, a specially-prepared dinner was arranged in a hut made of wood and bamboo leaves. Deep holes were dug in the ground, filled with hot stones and baby pigs, and the pigs were slowly baked over several days. The Queen looked uneasily at her plate when she discovered a whole roast pig was her serving.

Then she became uneasy when a turkey, some meat, bananas and an apple were also carried in for each guest. So she depended on her old favorite trick of talking with her host, King Tupou IV, carrying on a warm conversation. At the same time she pushed her food around her plate and only ate a piece of turkey and some fruit.

Reporters traveling with her have noted that the Queen will sometimes seem so carried away by a foreign leader’s political chat that she simply never has time to finish a meal before it is time to get up and make her speech. She will lift her fork to swallow a mouthful, then put it down again to make another point, leaving almost all of her meal untouched.

The Queen talked with her host and carried on conversation with him. The purpose of doing this is ____.

A. to show her politeness       B. to show her great interest in food

C. not to eat much             D. to hide her dislike to the food

We can infer from the passage that tours are difficult for the Queen, because ____.

A. she has to meet with so many important leaders

B. she has to eat much oily food

C. hosts always present wonderful state banquets

D. she has so many reporters to travel with her

What probably is the Queen’s art of acting at state dinners?

A. Appearing to enjoy her meal without actually eating much.

B. Drinking Malvern water.

C. Eating a piece of turkey and some fruit.

D. Eating much without being noticed

The main idea of the passage is about ____.

A. the Queen’s favorite food             B. the Queen’s tours abroad

C. the Queen’s trouble with a foreign leader D. how the Queen keeps her diet during her tours

科目:高中英語 來源:2014屆度江蘇省高一上學(xué)期期中考試英語題 題型:閱讀理解

A lazy Susan is an addition to a table that is designed to assist in moving food from one person to another while dining. This is achieved through the use of a turntable (轉(zhuǎn)盤), which usually moves the food in a circle when it is pushed by those at the table. In this way, the food never has to be picked up and passed around the table. Instead, it remains in place on the lazy Susan.

     A lazy Susan may also be a part of a kitchen cabinet (櫥柜). In this sense, the lazy Susan is a type of shelving unit within the cabinet that is able to turn around its axis(軸心) . One may turn the lazy Susan in order to find certain goods in storage. From the outside, a lazy Susan appears to be two cabinets that are located at a right angle (直角) to each another. When one of these cabinets is pushed, however, both doors move and the lazy Susan is revealed inside.

     It is believed that Thomas Jefferson invented the lazy Susan in the 18th century, though it was called “dumbwaiter” at that time. It is said that Jefferson invented the lazy Susan because his daughter complained she was always served last at table and, as a result, never found herself full when leaving the table. Others believe that Thomas Edison was the inventor, as he is believed to have invented the turntable for his phonograph (留聲機(jī)). The turntable may have developed into the lazy Susan later.

Regardless of who invented it, it wasn’t until 1917 that the term “l(fā)azy Susan” was used in an advertisement for the invention. In Britain, however, the term “dumbwaiter” is still used rather than “l(fā)azy Susan”. The reason for the naming of it is still a mystery. One theory is that it was named after either Jefferson’s or Edison’s daughter, both of whom were named Susan.

1.What is a “l(fā)azy Susan”?

A. A waitress           B. A convenient tool        C. A table      D. A cabinet

2.According to those who believed Thomas Jefferson invented the lazy Susan, _______.

    A. his daughter was very lazy               B. the lazy Susan didn’t exist until the 18th century

    C. Thomas Edison was his friend         D. Thomas Edison didn’t invent the phonograph

3.We can learn from the last paragraph that ___________.

    A. the lazy Susan can work by itself

    B. the lazy Susan was named after Thomas Edison’s daughter

    C. how the lazy Susan got its name remains unknown

    D. the lazy Susan was invented in Britain

4. The writer wrote the passage mainly to _________.

    A. discuss how the lazy Susan was named     B. teach us how to make a lazy Susan

    C. introduce Thomas Edison’s inventions D. tell us what a lazy Susan is and its origin
