【題目】閱讀下面材料,在空白處填人適當?shù)膬?nèi)容(1個單詞)或括號內(nèi)單詞的正確形式。

As is known to us. the year 2016 has one extra day in it- February 29th. This is because it's1we call "a leap year". Every four years. the year has 366 days in2instead of 365.

It is called a leap year because hundreds of years ago in England, the extra day wasn’t3(legal) recognized. There is a well-known tradition in the UK4(associate) with 29th February, introduced many centuries ago. Women are allowed to break with tradition and propose(求婚)to their boyfriends on this day. This all started back in the5(five) century, when a famous Irish saint made a6(complain) that women had to wait too long for men to propose. According to the legend, Saint Patrick said any female dreaming of a proposal could ask her boyfriend to marry her on this additional day in February. This so-called tradition was7(write)in law in the thirteenth century.

Scotland passed a law allowing women to propose to men in a leap year. It was said that if the men refused, they had to pay a fine!

Now in 2016, there are calls829th February to become a public holiday. Some people believe that it should be an9(office) day off, because no one gets10(many) payments for working an extra day in a leap year. For the moment though, the British still have to go to work on this day.

9official

【解析】試題分析:本文屬于說明文,介紹了2016年的229日成為了額外多出來的一天,人們呼吁把這一天設(shè)成公共假期。

1what 考查表語從句。本句中what引導表語從句,并在句中作為動詞call的賓語。句意:這是因為我們把2016年成為閏年。

2it 考查代詞。動詞it常指上文提到的同一事物,表示特指。本句中的it就是指本句主語the year。

3legally 考查副詞。在英語中副詞通常做狀語修飾形容詞、副詞、動詞或整個句子。本句中使用副詞legally修飾謂語動詞wasn't recognized。

4associated 考查形容詞。本句中形容詞短語associated with February做定語,修飾名詞短語a well-known tradition

5fifth 考查序數(shù)詞。名詞短語the fifth century第五世紀;如果使用基數(shù)詞,后面要使用復(fù)數(shù)名詞。

6complaint 考查名詞。橫線前有冠詞a修飾,我們橫線上應(yīng)該使用名詞作make的賓語,動詞complain的名詞是complaint

7was written 考查時態(tài)語態(tài)。本句時間狀語是in the thirteenth century,這是一個過去時間,且主語與動詞write構(gòu)成被動關(guān)系,所以使用一般過去時的被動語態(tài)was written.

8for 考查不定式復(fù)合結(jié)構(gòu)。不定式復(fù)合結(jié)構(gòu)為:for sb/sth to do sth;該短語在句中做定語修飾calls。句意:有人呼吁把229日當成公共假日。

9official 考查形容詞。橫線后有名詞day,說明橫線上應(yīng)使用形容詞,名詞office的形容詞形式為official.

10more 考查比較級。句意:一些人認為這一天應(yīng)該是一個公共假日,因為沒有人因為這額外地多工作一天而獲得更多的報酬。根據(jù)句意可知使用比較級形式more

Nowadays more and more people are going abroad on holiday, some of whom even goes on holiday two or three times a year. In my opinion, there are two type of holidaymakers. The first kind always goes to seaside resorts. Their only aim is to have good time sunbathing. They spend their days on the sunshine and their evenings in getting drunk, and then slept soundly. This kind of traveler just needs to pack a pair of sunglasses together with everything that he needs it. The others kind of holiday maker goes to other countries to increasing knowledge of foreign lands. They make use of the chance to take photos, so a good camera is absolute essential.

【題目】根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。

Some people describe American society as a salad bowl while others think of it as a melting pot.

In a bowl of salad,all the ingredients are mixed together. 【1】____ Together, however, the ingredients make up a unity. All the ingredients of a salad contribute to the finished product. They may be covered with the same dressing (調(diào)味醬),but the green vegetables, tomatoes and cooked corn can all be seen for what they are.

From this point of view, America is very much like a salad bowl where individual ethnic groups mix together, yet maintain their cultural uniqueness. People may work together during the day at similar jobs and in the same companies, but at night they may return to their ethnic groups where their own individual culture directs their way of life.

【2】____ Each ethnic group has its own special customs, language, food and traditions to protect and defend. This idea of the salad bowl is referred to as cultural diversity; that is, American society is a collection of various cultures living together in harmony within one country.

【3】____Here, society is like one large pot of soup. All cultural aspects are mixed together, sacrificing their original identity and keeping a bit of what they were to become a new reality. The Some people describe American society as a saladlonger the soup is cooked, the better the taste and the more likely it will be for the mixture to dissolve. In this sense, America can surely be seen as a melting pot where people from all over the world come to live and work together forming one nation. There are dozens of shared symbols. 【4】____In such a culture, symbols like the flag and the nation’s official song serve to break down the walls which separate ethnic groups.

Whether a salad bowl or a melting pot, America can be best described as a mixture of both. 【5】____

A. Both are correct depending on one-s point of view.

B. They never lose their shapes, colors or tastes.

C. This is why there is so much diversity within America.

D, In other words, America is a nation where there is unity in diversity.

E. Thus, one needs to abandon one's culture to be considered "American".

F. They serve to develop the various ethnic groups to create a new American culture.

G. The other theory, which is also used to describe American society, is the melting pot.
