Part-time jobs for 15 and 16 years olds
Waiter / Waitress A job as a waiter or waitress is a good choice for 16-year-olds. Not only can one earn $9 - $12 an hour, but they can also get the tips. Most people that visit a restaurant don't just have good food. They come here to relax and have a good time. Besides serving food quickly, a young waiter who talks to them politely with a smile on his face will make the diners enjoy their time at the restaurant.
Work in a library If one is fond of books, working in a library is another suitable choice. Besides the pay is good, it offers a lot of free time when students can actually sit down and finish their homework. So on returning home, they would have time to hang around with friends or just relax. So working in a library is an excellent part-time job for teens, especially for school students.
Internet jobs There are many ways of making money through online jobs like clicking on advertisements, visiting sites and signing up with them. However, such online jobs don't pay well. A better Internet job for teens is to complete online surveys. These are quite simple surveys that usually ask one about his / her opinions and ideas. Many companies use these ideas to make products designed for teenagers.

We talked along that afternoon, did some shopping, ate on the street table, and laughed over my son’s funny facial expressions Gone was my father’s critical (挑别的) air and strict rules. Who was this person I knew as my father, who seemed so friendly and interesting to be around What had held him back before
The next day dad pulled out his childhood pictures and told me quite a few stories about his own childhood. Although our times together became easier over the years, I never felt closer to him at that moment. After so many years, I’m at last seeing another side of my father.

【解析】
【分析】本文是说明文。文章介绍了关于圣诞节的一些相关知识。
【12题详解】
空前一句提到“For many people it means eating a lot, spending time with family and visiting relatives and friends．（对很多人来说，这意味着要有很多吃的、有时间与家人在一起、走亲访友。）”,由此推知下文应陈述圣诞节对另一些人的意义。E项“For children it often means presents, presents and more presents!（对孩子们来说，它通常意味着礼物、礼物、更多的礼物。）”符合语境，其中“For children it often means…”与空前一句中“For many people it means…”句式并列，也是对该段首句“Christmas can mean different things to different people．（圣诞节对不同的人有不同的意义。）”的补充说明。故选E。
【13题详解】
该空是该段的小标题，也是该段的主题句；下文提到“The Romans decorated their homes with green plants in December to remind Saturn, their harvest god, to return the following spring．（罗马人在12月用绿色植物装饰他们的家，以提醒他们的丰收之神Saturn在来年春天回来。）”；“In the year 440, the Christian church decided that the birth of Christ should be celebrated every year on December 25th．Some of these ancient customs were adopted by early Christians as part of their celebrations of the birthday of Jesus Christ．（公元440年，基督教会决定在每年的12月25日庆祝基督的诞生。其中一些古老的习俗被早期的基督徒采用，作为他们庆祝耶稣诞辰的一部分。）”，由此可知，该段是说明圣诞节的起源。A项“The Origins of Christmas（圣诞节的起源）”可以作为该段的小标题。故选A。
【14题详解】
下文“The Romans decorated their homes with green plants in December to remind Saturn, their harvest god, to return the following spring．（罗马人在12月用绿色植物装饰他们的家，以提醒他们的丰收之神土星在下一个春天回来。）”与G项“他们相信他们的仪式能帮助太阳恢复能量”承接自然；选项中“their ceremonies”指代空后一句中的“The Romans decorated their homes with green plants”；“help the sun's power return”与空后一句中的“remind Saturn… to return”语义相符。由此可知，空后一句是顺承G项的话题。 故选G。
【15题详解】
上文“It's very common to send Christmas cards to friends, family, colleagues, classmates and neighbors…”说明在圣诞节前，人们通常寄圣诞卡给朋友、家人、同事、同学和邻居；空后一句提到“People send fewer cards than in the past as they now send Christmas greetings by email or via Facebook．”说明现在人们送圣诞卡片数量减少了，而是通过电子邮件或Facebook发送圣诞祝福；由此可知D项“然而，情况变了”符合语境。D项中“things have changed．”说明情况已经发生了变化；空后一句中“People send fewer cards than in the past”是对D项中 “things have changed”的进一步说明。故选D。
【16题详解】
空前一句 “How does he enter the children's houses ”是问圣诞老人是如何进入孩子们的房子的；C 项“Via the chimney, of course!（当然是通过烟囱!）”是对空前一句问题的回答，符合语境。故选C。

考查副词。句意：起初让我担心的是我不能流利地说英语。分析句子可知，fluent意为“流利的”，形容词词性，speak English意为“说英语”，为动词短语，后应用副词修饰，fluent的副词形式为fluently，意为“流利地”，句中指流利地说英语。故填fluently。
【34题详解】
考查代词。句意：我也不明白他们的风俗习惯。分析句子可知，customs为custom的复数形式，意为“风俗”，名词词性，前应用形容词性物主代词修饰，they意为“他们”，为人称代词主格，对应的形容词性物主代词为their，意为“他们的”，句中指他们的风俗。故填their。
【35题详解】
考查固定短语。句意：一切都和我自己的国家不同。分析句子可知，句中涉及固定短语be different from，意为“与……不同”，句中指新的地方的一切都与我的国家不同。故填from。
【36题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：那是一个悲伤的时刻，当我不得不在机场和家人和朋友告别时。分析句子可知，句子为定语从句，先行词为moment，意为“片刻，瞬间”，在从句中作时间状语，故应用关系副词when引导定语从句。故填when。
【37题详解】
考查固定短语。句意：突然，我不愿意离开我的家乡，因为我在那里长大，对那个熟悉的地方有着美好的回忆。分析句子可知，句中涉及固定短语feel/be unwilling to do，意为“不愿意做某事”，leave意为“离开”，动词词性，不定式符号to后接动词原形。故填to leave。
【38题详解】
考查名词。句意：突然，我不愿意离开我的家乡，因为我在那里长大，对那个熟悉的地方有着美好的回忆。分析句子可知，memory意为“回忆”，为可数名词，句中指对家乡有着美好的回忆，并不只是一个回忆，故应用memory的复数形式memories，表示对家乡有很多美好的回忆。故填memories。
【39题详解】
考查名词。句意：然而我知道出国留学是我自己做的决定。分析句子可知，a意为“一（个）”，为不定冠词，后应接名词，在句中作表语，decide意为“决定”，动词词性，对应的名词为decision，意为“决定”。故填decision。
【40题详解】
考查时态。句意：现在我已经习惯了这里的新生活，虽然我期待着回家和我的老朋友们一起过假期。根据句意及句中By now（到目前为止）和already（已经）可知，我“已经”习惯了这里的生活，表示“习惯”的动作已经发生，故句子应用现在完成时，句式为“主语+have/has+动词过去分词+其他”，句子主语为I ，与have 连用，get used to意为“习惯……”，为动词短语，get的过去分词为got。故填have got。
【41题详解】
考查固定短语。句意：现在我已经习惯了这里的新生活，虽然我期待着回家和我的老朋友们一起过假期。分析句子可知，句中涉及固定短语look forward to doing sth.，意为“期待做某事”，spend意为“度过”，动词词性，动词ing形式为spending。故填spending。
