【9】its

【10】performing

【解析】

试题分析:这篇文章主要介绍了red红色在很多美国用语表达中的文化意义。一方面,红色用于表示快乐和惊喜,如a red-letter-day节日,假日,大喜日,红色也可以表示欢迎,如rolling out the red carpet隆重地欢迎(热忱接待);另一方面,红色也可以表示不开心,如red-handed当场,正在作案。

【1】happiness;句意:红色可以用来表示快乐。这里show后面应该填名词,故填happiness。

【2】when;句意:这是特别的事情会发生的一天。这里需要一个连接词来修饰a day,所以用when来修饰表示时间,故填when。

【3】For;句意:近六百年来,教堂的日历都有红色的标示,有特别的节日。这里for表示一段时间,故填For。

【4】a;句意:红包日是人们会感到异常开心的一天。根据句意,这里应该填一天,故填a。

【5】or;句意:这是你一直在等待的一天,例如,可能是一个婚礼的一天,或者是充满快乐惊喜的一天。根据句意,这里应该填或者表示一种可能,故填or。

【6】because/when;句意:你在买彩票中赢了钱,你会告诉你的朋友昨天是红包日。这里可以用because连接表示因果,或者用when连接表示时间状语,故填because/when。

【7】commonly;句意:滚红毯是另外一个常听说的表达。这里括号中是common,这里要求修饰heard,应该用副词修饰动词,故填commonly。

【8】represents;句意:这表达了一种热烈的欢迎。这里括号中是represent,在which后应该用第三人称单数形式,故填represents。

【9】its;句意:一个城市会在棒球队赢得冠军回来后给它的棒球队滚红毯。这里its表示它的在这里指这个城市的,故填its。

【10】performing;句意:被发现red-handed是被发现正在做不好的行为。这里括号中是perform,应该用现在分词表示当时正在进行的动作,故填performing。

【题目】Larry was on another of his underwater expeditions(探险)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.

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(无商标产品), 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.
