That evening, we had a big Thanksgiving dinner. This 【4】 (tradition) meal includes roast turkey, mashed potatoes and assorted vegetables. When the dishes and plates arrived at the table, we started to take 【5】 (turn) to say the things we were 【6】 (thank) for. This, in fact, is a Thanksgiving tradition many families practice in the US.
Then, the food 【7】 (pass) around the table and we all ate far too much. I also had desserts with my dinner. There 【8】 (be) different kinds of pies, such as apple pies, pumpkin pies and coconut pies.
If one mentions Thanksgiving, one must talk about Black Friday, the Friday 【9】 follows Thanksgiving Day. Shops across the United States will give their 【10】 (big) sales of the whole year on Black Friday. Many people go crazy about it. I saw many long queues outside the shops on that day.

【2】in
【3】Looking
【4】traditional
【5】turns
【6】thankful
【7】was passed
【8】were

【解析】本篇文章主要讲述了“我”的美国友人邀请“我”去她家过感恩节。这是“我”第一次过感恩节。“我”和友人在电视上观看了纽约的感恩节游行,吃了感恩节大餐。并介绍了黑色星期五。
【1】本篇文章是对过去发生的事情的描述,所以时态应该用过去式。故填experienced。
【2】本句讲的是我的朋友的家人都坐在电视前。在...前“in front of...”故填in。
【3】本空所在句子为伴随状语,动词位于句首且为主动形式,应填动词的ing形式。故填looking。

【6】句意:我们开始轮流说我们所感谢的东西。感谢 “be thankful for”。故填thankful。

【9】句意:黑色星期五是感恩节之后的那个星期五。本句采用定语从句的形式。故填which/that。
【10】句意:美国各地的商店在黑色星期五这天会的销售额会是它全年最大的销售额。所以应用形容词最高级进行修饰。故填biggest。

【题目】阅读理解。
The Cuban iguana is a species of lizard(蜥蜴) of the iguana family. It is the largest of the West Indian rock iguanas, one of the most endangered groups of lizards. This species with red eyes and a thick tail is one of the largest lizards in the Caribbean.
The Cuban iguana is primarily herbivorous; 95% of its diet consists of the leaves, flowers and fruits from as many as 30 plant species, including the seaside rock bush and various grasses. However, Cuban iguanas occasionally consume animal matter, and individuals have been observed eating the dead flesh of birds, fish and crabs. The researchers wrote that quite a few people on Isla Magueyes could have caused this incident.
The Cuban iguana is distributed throughout the rocky southern coastal areas of mainland Cuba and its surrounding islands with a wild population booming on Isla Magueyes, Puerto Rico. It is also found on the Cayman Islands of Little Cayman and Cayman Brac, where a separate subspecies occurs. Females guard their nest sites and often nest in sites half destroyed by Cuban crocodiles. To avoid the attack from them, the Cuban iguana often makes its home within or near prickly-pear cacti(仙人掌).
In general the species is in decline, more quickly on the mainland than on the outlying islands. One of the reasons for their decline is habitat destruction caused by the over consuming of farm animals, housing development, and the building of tourist resorts on the beaches where the animals prefer to build their nests. Although the wild population is in decline, the numbers of iguanas have been sharply increased as a result of captive-breeding(圈养)and other conservation programs.
【题文1】The underlined word "herbivorous" (Paragraph 2) probably means .
A. dangerous B. gentle
C. plant-eating D. flesh-eating
【2】Why does the Cuban iguana build its nest near prickly-pear cacti?
A. To keep itself cool. B. To get the food easily.
C. To stay away from people. D. To avoid crocodiles' attack.
【3】How many reasons are mentioned for the habitat destruction?
A. Two. B. Three.
C. Four. D. Five.
【4】What's the author's purpose of writing the text?
A. To give us a brief introduction to the Cuban iguana.
B. To show he is concerned about the Cuban iguana.
C. To explain reasons for the Cuban iguana's decline.
D. To draw people's attention to the endangered Cuban iguana.

【题目】If life is a beach, then a village in Ireland has come back from the dead after the sand returned 33 years later due to a freak tide.
Dooagh beach on Achill Island in the west of Ireland, was washed away in 1984 after storms hit the area, leaving a rocky foreshore.The tourists left, causing the hotels and guesthouses as well as the cafes to close down. But in April this year, the sand returned over a ten-day period caused by an unusually high tide that deposited hundreds of thousands of tons of sand along the 300m beach, bringing the beautiful beach back to its former glory.
Emmet Callaghan from Achill Island Tourist Office told the journalist that the people of the island were excited at the beach’s reappearing. “It’s so nice for the villagers to have their beach back. It is an incredible example of the force and power of nature and how the coast can change in a matter of days. Yesterday we had traffic block here in the village with cars and people coming from all over Ireland and the UK to see our new beach,” he said. “The people here have always spoken about their days on the beach and how they enjoyed it as children. To have it back with their kids is unbelievable. Now locals are hoping that the beach is given the blue flag status. We already have five blue flag beaches and hopefully, if we keep our beach here, we’ll have a sixth.”
Dr Ivan Haigh from the University of Southampton said there were two explanations as to why the beach has reformed. “It could be a change in sediment (沉积物) supply, from further up or down the coast which has brought a fresh amount of sediment to the beach,” he said. “It could also be due to a change in environmental conditions, either a change in the wave climate or a series of tides that have provided the ideal conditions for this beach to reform.”
The tourism office and locals hope the new beach will stay, at least for the summer of this year.
【1】What can we infer from the article?
A. Dooagh beach was washed away by storms in 1980s.
B. People worldwide showed great interest in the beach.
C. Blue flag beaches are beneficial to children in the village.
D. The locals had wonderful memories about Dooagh beach.
【2】The people on Achill Island hope the new Dooagh beach will stay because ______.
A. its reforming shows the force and power of nature
B. they will have more beaches to enjoy with families
C. they hope it can help promote the village’s economy
D. it will make the summer of the village amazing
【3】What might be the reason for the beach’s reforming?
A. The wave climate keeps changing.
B. A series of tides provide the proper conditions.
C. Environmental conditions are getting better.
D. A fresh amount of sediment exists in the sea.
