三. 完型填空 （共10题,共10分）
1. By tradition, the 1(?) of Thanksgiving Day is to commemorate the early successful harvests celebrated by the white settlers 2(?) arrived in the New World.
The first celebrations in what is now Canada were held in Newfoundland in 1578 by the English navigator, Martin Frobisher. These were the usual harvest festivals after the year’s work. The first recorded celebration in 3(?) is now the USA 4(?) sometime in autumn in 1610, celebrated by the colonists at Jamestown, Virginia. 5(?), for these colonists it was not so much a celebration of the harvest — but the fact that supply ships had arrived 6(?) England. Due to the terrible winter 1609-1610, the colonists’ numbers had been 7(?) from 490 down to 60, and they were desperate. The first harvest-related Thanksgiving in the later USA was in 1621 at Plymouth, Massachusetts, a year 8(?) the arrival of the Pilgrims on the Mayflowe, and after their first successful year.
So the source of the Thanksgiving Day celebration in the USA is a combination of 9(?) farming harvest celebrations, the survival of the Jamestown colonists by the arrival of the supply ships, and the celebration of the Pilgrims. 10(?) the reason for the tradition, the Thanksgiving Day in our industrial society today is the time for family. （10分） (1) 第1空 （1分）A.result

1. One Mother’s Day morning a troubling thought crossed my mind. You’ve never, ever, in your whole life, told your mother you love her. What if she dies and you have to live with that for the rest of your life?
What reason did I have for not telling Mum I loved her? I didn’t know I had to! Such words were never spoken in our home. My parents loved each other and they loved their five children, but our family didn’t hug and say mushy things such as “I love you.”
My parents were also loved by their parents, but there were no hugs and sweet talk there either. Mum’s mother had been a child immigrant to the country and worked as a domestic helper when she was just eight years old. Before that, she had lived in an orphanage in London. She had no memories of her mother. None.
Naturally, my grandmother wasn’t big on outward shows of affection. Hence, my mother didn’t receive any I-love-you either, and she wasn’t good at giving affection to her children, except when they were in the baby and toddler stages.
Everyone in my family was supposed to translate warm meals, clean beds and good clothing as “love.” But, seeing love in action doesn’t make up for failing to hear the words “I love you”.
That Mother’s Day, I felt God speaking to me, telling me to break down that barrier. He told me that my mother needed to hear me say, “I love you.” And I needed to say it!
Mum lives three hours away, so it wasn’t possible to tell her face-to-face. I phoned.
At first, I wished her a happy Mother’s Day. Then we talked about the weather, other members of the family and Dad’s health. All the while, the words “I love you” were burning in my mind. When you’ve never said those words to someone, they don’t just roll off your tongue.
Finally, when I felt our conversation winding down, I blurted, “I love you, Mum.”
She said, “I love you too, dear,” just as if she’d been saying it to me all my life. （10分） (1) There are five children in the author’s family and they always say nice things to each other. （2分）错误

2. Even for people who’ve gone many years without exercising, there are compelling reasons to get active, no matter what their ages.
“The fitter and more active you become, the longer you’ll live and less heart disease you’ll have,” says Dr. Aaron Baggish, a cardiologist and fitness expert at Harvard-affiliated Massachusetts General Hospital.
He suggests that people first start exercising by moving whenever possible, such as taking the stairs instead of the elevator. Next, he asks his patients to identify times during the day they can exercise and what resources they have at their disposal. For example, does their workplace or senior center have a fitness facility, or do they have access to a safe place to walk, no matter what the weather?
People in the 60- to 80-year-old age group should spend eighty percent of their workout doing moderate aerobic activity. That can be anything from brisk walking, cycling, dancing, to a Zumba class. For the remaining twenty prevent of the time, it’s a good idea to focus on strength training. This can be done at a gym but can also be done at home — no weights needed. Try squats, push-ups, and arm reaches. Work toward a goal of exercising for one hour, five times a week.
For those with no particular health concerns, a program of moderate walking and strength training is a safe way to go. Those who have heart disease, diabetes, arthritis, or other muscle or bone problems should talk to a doctor before starting. Take it easy at first, and ramp up to a more intense level gradually. “Most of all, remember that something is better than nothing and there is no age when it’s too late to start,” says Dr. Baggish. （10分） (1) When people start exercising, they need to consider their age. （2分）错误

1. Global warming is a cause for concern for the whole world and it has to be tackled by all countries together. Mercury is rising and very soon life on Earth will become a living hell all thanks to global warming.
The result is for all to see, roads overflowing with the latest cars, fields and trees in the name of progress and development are gradually, systematically making way for concrete jungles, homes fitted with the latest electric gadgets, all contributing to the emission of green house gases and depletion of the ozone layers, accelerating global warning.
Nature is warning us through the melting of the glaciers and climate change that the clock, for our doom’s day, has started ticking. Warmer weather, rising sea levels, floods, tsunamis and earthquakes are just some of the problems but in reality we are sitting on a volcano ready to erupt. These are signals of a transition that will decide the destiny of this planet and all living things.
The question is can we reverse the change? The truth is we may not be able to but we can certainly stall it if we give a healing touch to this planet by controlling rapid industrialization and development as well as conserving energy.
The key lies in sustainable development, now it is the time to think of the whole world as one entity rather than to restrict our vision to our own country. It is this, only this, which will buy time for this planet as the damage done may be irreversible and development and progress cannot be stopped.
The other remedy is planting trees, protecting agricultural land from being used for purposes other than planting crops, checking exploitation of natural resources such as ground water, devising ways and means to preserve, conserve and replenish what we take away from Mother Nature.
In brief, let us not disturb the ecological balance and try living with Nature in harmony which is natural and is also the need of the hour. （10分） (1) The following are reasons for global warming EXCEPT ______. （2分）A.modern vehicles

2. The food service industry has shown double-digit growth in China each year since 2003. But it’s still only half the size of that in the U.S., which means it has plenty of room to grow.
Multinational fast food chains such as McDonald’s and Yum Brands arrived early in China. And they’ve come to lead the market for western, quick service meals...
Yum Brands, which owns KFC and Pizza Hut, opens another new restaurant in China every day. In fact, for the first time ever in 2010, it made more profits there than in the United States. And it soon expects to have a three to one market share lead over McDonald’s, its closest rival.
KFC, now the number one fast food chain in China, definitely helped a lot. The popular American business did so by catering for local tastes with products such as rice porridge with pork. Meanwhile, Pizza Hut remains China’s number one casual dining chain, something it lost in the U.S. many years ago.
But McDonald’s is investing heavily to catch up with Yum. The company says it plans to “re-image” its stores. That will involve friendly designs, comfortable seating, warmer colors and conveniences such as WiFi. McDonald’s is also
