【解析】

这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了父亲节的由来和发展过程。

1考查冠词。句意:华盛顿州的John B Dodd夫人在1909年首次提出设立“父亲节”的建议。此处表示一个节日“父亲节”,因此要用冠词a。故填a

2考查非谓语动词。句意:Dodd夫人希望有一个特殊的日子来纪念她的父亲威廉。此处要用不定式表示目的状语。故填to honor

3考查非谓语动词。句意:威廉的妻子在生他们第六个孩子的时候去世了。根据while可知此处give的逻辑主语和主句主语his wife一致,且表示主动,因此要用现在分词形式。短语give birth to“生育,生孩子”。故填giving

4考查形容词。句意:斯玛特先生在华盛顿州东部的一个农村农场独自抚养这个新生儿和其他五个孩子。根据Washington state可知此处要用形容词修饰名词。故填eastern

5考查强调句。句意:直到Dodd夫人成年后,她才意识到她的父亲独自抚养孩子所表现出的力量和无私。此处是强调句It was after Mrs. Dodd became an adult that…,被强调部分是after Mrs. Dodd became an adult。故填It

6考查名词。句意:直到Dodd夫人成年后,她才意识到她的父亲独自抚养孩子所表现出的力量和无私。根据the strength and可知此处要用名词作宾语,且selflessness是不可数名词。故填selflessness

7考查时态和语态。句意:1910619日,第一个父亲节在华盛顿举行。主语为The first Father’s Day,是第三人称单数,与动词observe“庆祝”是被动关系,且时态是一般过去时。故填was observed

8考查副词。句意:林登·约翰逊总统在1966年正式宣布每年6月的第3个星期天为父亲节。此处要用副词修饰动词declared。故填officially

9考查定语从句的关系词。句意:父亲节已经成为一个不仅向父亲,而且向所有扮演父亲角色的人表达敬意的日子。此处是一个定语从句,先行词为all,指人,且关系词在定语从句中充当主语,因此要用关系代词who。故填who

10考查介词。句意:继父、叔伯、祖父和成年男性朋友都在父亲节受到尊敬。根据上文可知Father’s Day是一个具体节日,在每年6月的第3个星期天,因此要用介词on。故填on

【题目】 For many, holiday celebrations mean large meals shared with family and friends, but such feasts can generate huge amounts of food waste, harming the environment and overusing natural resources—unless mindful merrymakers take steps to control the amount. 1

Try keeping food in glass jars. Using this method, you can make all the food in your kitchen visible, easily remembered and consumed. 2. Nothing gets lost in the back of a shelf.

Use leftovers wisely

It may be impossible to get everyone into the clean plate club. 4 Freeze and repurpose leftovers by using them as basic ingredients for other recipes or send extras home with guests.

Keep track of the scraps(残羹)

Along with turkey bones, use holiday scraps such as vegetables, meat and fish bones to make soup. For pet-safe dishes, allow your dog to clean plates before putting them in the dishwasher.

Consider composting(堆肥)
