11. With Christmas Day, the New Year, as well as the Spring Festival plus the Valentine's Day on the way, the gift-giving season has been in full swing. When receiving a gift contrary to your expectation, some will feel annoyed and it may lead to quarrelling. ①________.
Don't expect a specific gift
First of all, before you've even opened the present, you need to get yourself in the right mind tendency. If you've got a specific gift in mind (say, a new pair of running shoes—please Santa!), you're only to be disappointed. ②________.
Have an open mind about it
Once you've opened the present and seen whatever it may be, give yourself a moment. Don't react until you've had a proper look at the thing. ③________. Instead you should take it seriously and consider why it is. With that in mind, try to figure out whether you could, in fact, learn to love it.
④________
Right after you say "thank you!" and before you say anything else, you need to find something positive to comment about the gift. It could be something as small as the fact that you like the color of it. It could be that you think it's practical. If you begin with the word of praise, the whole thing will be much easier.
Skillfully ask about the gift receipt
If you've decided that you're not likely to go to use the thing at all, ask about the gift receipt skillfully. Now you should give a seemingly convincing reason for wanting it. For example, if it's a clothing item, you could say that you do that in case it doesn't quite fit. ⑤________. Let the gift-giver feel at ease.
No matter what you receive, always remember to see things in others' shoes.
A. Don't be casual about it
B. Find something to speak highly of
C. Your friendship may come to an end
D. Get your gift ready before leaving home
E. Therefore, how to handle it appropriately is vital
F. If it's a glass item, say you just want to have it in case it breaks
G. Unless you've told the gift-giver your favorites, you have to accept it
12. Father's Day is celebrated today in 75 countries around the world. In my personal world, it's a day I like to think of my father's father.
I learned a lot in my later life from my dad. But I learned something else, as a kid not even yet in school, from my grandfather. I learned to be curious. Little things fathers and grandfathers do can change the life of a child forever. In my case, this change came from necessity: My mom wanted someone to look after little Allen, barely 4 years old, during the school day. My grandmother volunteered, and my grandfather came up with a way I could be watched while he worked in his clockmaker's shop.
He seated me on a chair every day while I was there, right in front of his big workbench. He told me stories. He had a great sense of humor and a funny way of making a "buh-buh-buh" sound when he sensed my attention was weakening, and he encouraged me to ask questions about anything he was doing.
Naturally, I was usually asking questions about clocks—what made the hands move, what the pendulum(钟摆) did, why you had to stop winding just before the weight hit the stop. Sometimes I just asked about which shiny parts went where.
Most of all, he showed me how clocks worked. He treated me as if I were an adult. He never talked down to me, and never told me I was "too young to understand".
My grandfather granted me two things: a love of clocks, and an everlasting curiosity.
As a journalist, I turned that fascination into explanations of why computers and software do what they do—and, perhaps even more importantly, why they fail at that task. I haven't been afraid of opening up the innards and looking for what is wrong with the computer.

④设空处是本段的标题,因此要概括整段的中心。根据"you need to find something positive to comment about the gift"以及"If you begin with the word of praise"可知答案为B。其中,positive和praise对应B选项中的speak highly of。故选B。
⑤根据前一句可知,作者给出例子,说明该如何巧妙地索要购物收据。因此F符合语境。故选F。
12.答案:1-4.ABAA

2.推理判断题。根据第三段的内容可知,作者坐在祖父的工作台前时,祖父给他讲故事,鼓励作者就他所做的事提出问题。当作者走神时,祖父会用幽默而风趣的方式引起他的注意。由此推断,作者被祖父吸引,从而问许多问题。故选B。
3.推理判断题。根据文章第二段至第五段的内容可知,父母无法照顾作者,他的祖父母自愿帮忙照看,于是祖父带着他工作,由此可推断出他是一位有责任心的祖父。祖父鼓励他提出问题,对于作者的问题总是耐心地回答,对作者很有耐心。分析选项可知A符合题意。故选A。
4.推理判断题。根据文章第二段中的"I learned to be curious."以及倒数第二段"My grandfather granted me two things: a love of clocks, and an everlasting curiosity."可知,作者有好奇心,对发现事物很感兴趣。分析选项可知选A。故选A。

London
Although it may not be as large or as long-built as others, having only become a center for the Chinese community during the 1950s, London's Chinatown is a perfectly formed little firework that knows how to welcome the new year with a bang. Decorated with red lanterns, previous years have seen shows with acrobatics (杂技), martial arts (武术), dances and operas nearby.
San Francisco
San Francisco's Chinatown is perhaps the most famous in the USA. The city was the main entry point for Chinese who had crossed the Pacific to the USA during the early 19th century. Between Grant Avenue and Stockton Street, this historic area is a local treasure, attracting more visitors per year than the Golden Gate Bridge.
Bangkok
With an about 100-year-old history, the Thai capital's Chinatown contains complex streets offering all kinds of tasty food, clothes and toys. Sunday Market days are such a good time to get the full atmosphere of the neighborhood. The area is also known for its gold dealers, whose shops line the road.
Port Louis
Found in Port Louis, this Mauritian Chinatown shows the island nation's rich multicultural diversity. Built in the early years of the 20th century by settlers from China, its tiny shops and restaurants serve locals and visitors. During the Chinese Spring Festival, the most exciting sight is the dragon dances on the Rue Royale where Chinese musicians and dancers perform the traditional dragon dances through the streets.
Melbourne
The Chinatown in Melbourne, Australia was formed with the Victorian "gold rush" in the mid-19th century. According to Reuters, Melbourne Chinatown is not only the oldest Chinatown in Australia, but also the longest in all cities in the Western world.
