【題目】首字母短文填空

Halloween is a strange h【1】. It’s s【2】 several centuries ago in Europe . It began as “Hallow Evening” which means “holy night”. At t【3】 time November 1st was called “All Saints' Day” (萬圣日) and people honored all the saints who did not have their own special day. People believed that all the spirits of dead people were active on the night of October 3Ist. So people would play all sorts of tricks on e【4】 other.

Black is one of the t【5】Halloween colors, probably because Halloween festivals and traditions took place at n【6】. Pumpkins are a symbol of Halloween, so orange has become the other traditional Halloween color. Making lanterns out of pumpkins is a Halloween custom.

Halloween is great f【7】 for children. They d【8】 up as ghosts(鬼), witches(女巫). Small children go ‘Trick-or-Treating’. They wear costumes, knock on doors, and s【9】, ‘Trick or Treat!’ People almost always choose to give them candy as a treat, i【10】 of choosing to receive a trick from the children. Adults sometimes ‘trick or treat’ their friends, too. Usually the ‘treat’ is a glass of wine or some small gifts.

【答案】

【1】holiday

【2】started

【3】that

【4】each

【5】traditional

【6】night

【7】fun

【8】dress

【9】shout

【10】instead

【解析】

文章大意：本文是說明文，講述的是萬圣節(jié)的來歷，幾百年前起源于歐洲，早期，人們認為死人的鬼神在10月31日夜里會再現(xiàn)，為紀念這點，人們就做起了"trick or treat"不招待就使壞的鬼節(jié)。

【1】句意：萬圣節(jié)是一個奇怪的節(jié)日。

分析句意，萬圣節(jié)應該是一個節(jié)日，節(jié)日festival或者holiday。結(jié)合提示首字母，故填holiday。

【2】句意：它開始于幾個世紀前的歐洲。

分析句意，此處表示的是開始的意思，以s開頭表示“開始”用start，時間是幾個世紀前，所以用過去時，start用過去式，故填started。

【3】句意：在那個時候11月1日被稱為萬圣日，人們尊敬所有沒有自己特殊日子的圣徒。

分析句意，此處表達的應該是“在那個時候”。在那個時候at that time。故填that。

【4】句意：所以人們相互會玩各種各樣的把戲。

分析句意，并結(jié)合首字母提示，此處表示的相互哄騙， “相互”用each other，故填each。

【5】句意：黑色是萬圣節(jié)傳統(tǒng)顏色之一。

此處修飾Halloween colors用形容詞，分析句意，并結(jié)合提示字母，此處表示的是傳統(tǒng)的顏色之一。 “傳統(tǒng)的”形容詞用traditional。故填traditional。

【6】句意：大概是因為萬圣節(jié)的節(jié)日和傳統(tǒng)發(fā)生在晚上。

根據(jù)前問“Black is one of the t___5___Halloween colors, ”可以推測此處表達應該是發(fā)生在晚上。故填night。

【7】句意：萬圣節(jié)對孩子們來說是很有趣。

根據(jù)后面的“They d___8___ up as ghosts(鬼), witches(女巫).”可知孩子們應該玩的很有趣。結(jié)合提示字母，故填fun。

【8】句意：他們打扮成鬼魂，女巫。

分析句意，后面是鬼魂，女巫，此處應該表示“打扮”表示打扮用dress up。故填dress。

【9】句意：他們穿著服裝敲門，然后喊，“不給糖果就搗蛋�！�

分析句意，孩子們敲門應該是高喊，不給糖就搗蛋。表示“喊”用動詞shout。故填shout。

【10】句意：人們幾乎總是選擇給他們糖果作為一種款待，而不是選擇接受孩子們的搗蛋。

分析句意，人們選擇給糖而不是讓孩子搗蛋，此處表示“代替，而不是”。結(jié)合字母提示，應該用instead of，后有of。故填instead。

【題目】 Strange things were happening in the countryside of northeast Hebei. For three days the water in the village wells(井)rose and fell, rose and fell. In the farm yards, the chickens and even the pigs were too nervous to eat. Mice ran out of the fields looking for places to hide. Fish jumped out of their pools. At about 3: 00 a m, on July 28, 1976, some people saw bright lights in the sky. The sound of planes could be heard outside the city of Tangshan even when no planes were in the sky. But the one million people of the city, who thought little of these events, were asleep as usual that night.

At 3: 42 a.m. everything began to shake. It seemed as if the world was at an end! One of the greatest earthquakes of the 20th century had begun. It was felt in Beijing, which is more than two hundred kilometers away. One-third of the nation felt it. Thousands of families in Tangshan were killed and many children were left without parents. The number of people who died or got hurt reached more than 400,000.

All hope was not lost. Soon after the earthquake, hundreds of thousands of people were helped. The army organized people to dig out those who were buried (埋葬), Workers built camps for survivors. Fresh water was taken by volunteers to the city. Slowly, the city began to breathe.

注意：每個空格只填一個單詞。

The concept of homeschooling is not a new one. Homeschooling means educating children at home instead of sending them to public or private schools. Nowadays, homeschooling has become popular in the USA for a lot of reasons. One of them is poor quality of education in public schools and it’s also because of the high cost in private schools. Some parents believe that because they know their child’s strengths and weaknesses, they can teach him or her better. Some parents prefer homeschooling so as to prevent their children from getting into bad company. There is another group of people who choose to educate their children at home because they want them to learn their religious beliefs. They also think that homeschooling would help in development of strong family bonds (家庭紐帶).

However, there are some negative influences of homeschooling on students as well as parents.

Homeschooling is a full-time job and not fit for parents who have their own careers. It takes a lot of time for parents’ side to make homeschooling a success. Other family members’ responsibilities may also be affected. They may give their full attention to the needs of their children. Besides, a parent may have high educational qualifications, but that does not make him or her a good teacher. Teaching is an art, which requires the ability to understand the needs of the children. It may be difficult for the parents to explain the concepts to their children.

In today’s world, competition is seen in every field, and school prepares children to face these competitions. However, homeschooling does not give the children a chance to compare with other kids. They will also not be aware of where they stand in educational position among their classmates. This may affect their lives. Education is not the only thing that the children need to become successful human beings. It is necessary that they learn to communicate in the society, and public school provides them with such an environment, where they meet many people. Schools also provide children with a chance to take part in different activities to improve their overall development.

It is true that it has many advantages, but one must get to know that school teaches children skills to survive.
