Carnival today is an international multicultural experience. But how did it become so? To understand 【1】 carnival is all about, we need to look at the history of America and the meeting of two 【2】 (culture)---European and African.

The 【3】 (arrive) of Europeans in America and the opening of huge farms and plantations to grow cotton, fruit and vegetables meant there was 【4】 immediate need for people to work on them, which 【5】 (mark) the beginning of the slave trade. Millions of people were taken 【6】 force to the New World to work as slaves 【7】 there were British and French landowners. At first, the slaves were forced to watch as their masters celebrated carnival with food, drink and masked dances. With time 【8】 (pass), the slave trade was abolished. So former slaves took part in the carnival together with their landowners. It became more colorful and more exciting 【9】 it had been before.

Carnival became a way to unite different communities, as people forgot their everyday problems and enjoyed themselves eating, drinking and dancing. Today, visitors from all over the world come to join in the fun. Carnival has become a 【10】 (celebrate) of life itself.

【答案】

【1】what

【2】cultures

【3】arrival

【4】an

【5】marked

【6】by

【7】where

【8】passing

【9】than

【10】celebration

【解析】

試題分析：本文屬于說明文，介紹了狂歡節(jié)的來歷以及具體作用。

【1】what 考查賓語從句。本句中what引導(dǎo)賓語從句what Carnival is all about作為動(dòng)詞understand的賓語，what在句中作為介詞about的賓語。

【2】cultures 考查名詞單復(fù)數(shù)。本句中的名詞culture文化，當(dāng)表示不同種類的文化的時(shí)候，是一個(gè)可數(shù)名詞。前面有數(shù)詞two，說明這是歐洲和美洲兩種文化的融合，所以使用復(fù)數(shù)形式。

【3】arrival 考查名詞。定冠詞the的后面要接名詞，表示特指。動(dòng)詞arrive的名詞為arrival。

【4】an 考查冠詞。橫線后面的名詞need是一個(gè)可數(shù)名詞，意為“需要的事物”。構(gòu)成固定句式There is a need for sb to do sth需要某人做某事，本句中need前面有形容詞immediate修飾，該詞是以元音開始的單詞，所以使用不定冠詞an。

【5】marked 考查時(shí)態(tài)。本句在敘述美洲的奴隸交易，這是在過去發(fā)生的事情，所以使用一般過去時(shí)，句中的謂語動(dòng)詞使用一般過去式marked。

【6】by 考查固定搭配。介詞短語by force靠武力，強(qiáng)行；很多人都被強(qiáng)行帶到美洲做奴隸。

【7】where 考查定語從句。本題定語從句的先行詞是the New World，后面的定語從句there were British and French landowners句子結(jié)構(gòu)很完整，所以要使用關(guān)系副詞where引導(dǎo)這個(gè)定語從句，在句中做狀語。

【8】passing 考查with復(fù)合結(jié)構(gòu)。“介詞with+賓語+賓語補(bǔ)足語”構(gòu)成with的復(fù)合結(jié)構(gòu)，本句中名詞time與動(dòng)詞pass構(gòu)成主動(dòng)關(guān)系，所以使用現(xiàn)在分詞做賓語補(bǔ)足語，意為“隨著時(shí)間的流逝”。

【9】than 考查比較級的介詞。英語中介詞than通常和比較級連用，本句中more與than連用，意為“比...更...”。句意：它比以前更多姿多彩更令人興奮。

【10】celebration 考查名詞。不定冠詞a的后面要接可數(shù)名詞，動(dòng)詞celebrate慶祝的名詞是“celebration慶祝儀式”，狂歡節(jié)自身也是一種生活的慶祝儀式。

【題目】People in the western state of California who are in the United States illegally can now request a driver's license. The law went into effect on January l. California is not the first American state with such a law, but it has the largest number of illegal immigrants. More than a million people began to request licenses shortly after the new state law went into effect. Among them was Christian Alvarado. Mr. Alvarado entered the United States from El Salvador eight years ago without permission from the U.S. government. Some call such people "illegal immigrants." Others call them "undocumented immigrants".

Mr. Alvarado thinks it so exciting, for he has been waiting for the license for a long time. But some are worried that their personal information will be used to find them and deport them. Armando Botello is a spokesman for the California Department of Motor Vehicles, or DMV. He says people should not be afraid, for such information will not be shared.

The new licenses are the same as licenses given to citizens except that they have the words "Federal Limits Apply". That means the license cannot be used to travel on an airplane or enter a federal building. Ana Garcia, working at the Central American Resource Center, says some illegal immigrants fear those words will be used to abuse them. Civil rights groups say the police and others will not.

Dan Schnur, a political scientist at the University of Southern California, said that the main argument against the new law is that it rewards illegal behavior. But Professor Schnur argued that young, white Americans generally support immigration reform, including giving driver's licenses to illegal immigrants

"It's simply because they grew up in a much more multicultural society than their parents or their grandparents did." Professor Schnur says he believes the changes in beliefs about illegal immigrants that have taken place in California will spread throughout the United States.

【1】Why did the new law make Mr. Alvarado excited?

A. Because he can request a driver's license.

B. Because he became a legal immigrant of California.

C. Because he got his driving license as an illegal immigrant.

D. Because a law went into effect for the new immigrants.

【1】What is the difference of the new licenses compared to those given to citizens'?

A. The words “Federal Limits Apply” will abuse illegal immigrants

B. They can't be used to travel on an airplane or enter a federal building.

C. They can be used to act against the police and other people.

D. With the words "Federal Limits Apply", immigrants can enjoy special rights.

【1】What’s the public's attitude towards the new law released on January l in California?

A. supportive B. negative

C. neutral D. controversial

Evaluating Sources (來源) of health Information

Making good choices about your own health requires reasonable evaluation. A key first step in bettering your evaluation ability is to look carefully at your sources of healthy information. Reasonable evaluation includes knowing where and how to fins relevant information, how to separate fact from opinions, how to recognize poor reasoning, and how to analyze information and the reliability of sources. 【1】

Go to the original source. Media reports often simplify the results of medical research. Find out for yourself what a study really reported, and determine whether it was based on good science. Think about the type of study. 【2】

Watch for misleading language. Some studies will find that a behaviour “contributes to” or is“ associated with” an outcome; this does not mean that a certain course must lead to a certain result. 【3】 Carefully read or listen to information in order to fully understand it.

Use your common sense. If a report seems too good to be true, probably it is. Be especially careful of information contained in advertisements. 【4】 Evaluate “scientific” statements carefully, and be aware of quackery(江湖騙術(shù)).

【5】 Friends and family members can be a great source of ideas and inspiration, but each of us needs to find a healthy lifestyle that works for us.

Developing the ability to evaluate reasonably and independently about the health problems will serve you well throughout your life.

A. Make choices that are right for you.

B. The goal of an ad is to sell you something.

C. Be sure to work through the critical questions.

D. And examine the findings of the original research.

E. Distinguish between research reports and public health advice.

F. Be aware that information may also be incorrectly explained by an author’s point of view.

G. The following suggestions can help you sort through the health information you receive from common sources.
