四、阅读理解
Pictures of Thanksgiving in the United States usually show happy families with big turkeys in the center. At my house, that moment lasts maybe 10 seconds.
Thanksgiving falls on the fourth Thursday in November each year. People go back to their hometown to greet their friends and family.
On Thursday morning, the family members are busy cooking the big meal. If the weather is bad—as it always is—families stay at home. By noon, my aunt Karla has too much wine and people are hungry, but it takes time to cook a turkey. When dinner is ready around 2:00 p. m. , everyone says something they are thankful for. I'm always thankful that someone takes the wine away from Aunt Karla.
This is when things heat up (变热闹). My uncle talks about his kids. Aunt Karla finds another bottle of wine. Grandma says that she makes better pumpkin pie.
With Aunt Karla falling asleep on the sofa, we leave quickly to the theater. It's always full of people on Thanksgiving. I guess my family isn't so different from the rest!

答案以及解析
一、单选题
1.答案:C
解析:句意:小凯特只有4岁,但她能帮忙做很多家务。考查连词辨析。or或者;so因此,所以;but但是;because因为。根据句意可知,前后句是转折关系,应用but;故选C。
2.答案:C
解析:考查疑问词。根据下句的回答"我和家人在一起吃了一顿大餐",可知上句问的是"你是和谁一起庆祝春节的"。因此选C。
3.答案:D
解析:句意:我不喜欢沙拉、梨和鸡肉。考查连词辨析。but但是(表转折);because因为;and和(表并列时,用于肯定句中);or和(表并列时,用在否定句中)。根据“I don’t like salad, pears...chicken.”可知,是沙拉、梨和鸡肉都不喜欢,因为句子是否定句,所以填or。故选D。
4.答案:C
解析:句意:虽然人类已经登陆月球,但是我们对它还是了解甚少。考查连词辨析。if如果;since自从;although虽然;because因为。根据“We still know little about the Moon.”和“man have landed on it.”可知,“我们已经登陆了月球”和“人类对月球了解甚少”构成让步关系,所以应用表示让步关系的连词although。故选C。
