On Thanksgiving Day，most of us will sit down to enjoy a turkey dinner. The bird also shows up on the table at Christmas. How did we start with the tradition of savoring turkeys during the holidays?
They were fresh，cheap，and big enough to feed a group of people. Americans like having large poultry(家禽)for celebrations because they don’t need to pay a lot for the birds. Cows were more useful alive than dead，and beef wasn’t widely offered until the late 19th century. Chicken was more highly regarded than it is today. Venison(鹿肉)would have been another choice，especially during the 17th and 18th centuries. Eating turkey was also a British holiday custom people brought to the New World.
Among the big birds，turkey is the most suitable for Thanksgiving. Turkeys were born in the spring. They spend about seven months eating insects on the farm. By Thanksgiving，they have grown to about 10 pounds. Turkeys are cheaper than geese，which are more difficult to raise，and cheaper by the pound than chickens. Cost is an important factor for holiday shoppers，because people will not prepare just one meal. Thanksgiving Day is the time to bake meat and other types of pies. The foods can last through the winter. （ ）1. The underlined word “savoring” in Paragraph 1 probably means “_____” in Chinese.
A. 享用 B. 欣赏 C. 饲养 D. 清洁
（ ）2. Americans enjoy eating turkey on Thanksgiving Day because _____.
A. turkeys were fresh B. turkeys were big
C. turkeys were cheap D. all of the above AD（ ）3. How long do turkeys grow to about 10 pounds?
A. About three months.
B. About eight months.
C. About one year.
D. About eleven months.
B（ ）4. _____ were more useful alive than dead.
A. Turkeys B. Chicken C. Cows D. Geese
（ ）5. What’s the best title for this passage?
A. The turkey on the farm. B. The history of the turkey.
C. How to keep the turkey. D. The star of Thanksgiving. CB课件63张PPT。 Unit 3 Language in useModule 2

【美文鉴赏学习】
Mother’s Day is celebrated in the USA. It is also a holiday in some other countries. It is on the second Sunday in May. It is a day to thank mothers. On that day mothers usually receive flowers or cards. On the cards, children will write “Thanks, Mom”， 写 作 训 练“To the best mother in the world”， “Best wishes for Mother’s Day” and so on. We should make mothers happy on that day.
Where does the idea for the holiday come from? We should thank Miss Anna M. Jarvis. She brought up (引发)the idea of having such a day. She lived in West Virginia(西弗吉尼亚州). Her mother died on May 9th, 1905. She had a deep love for her mother. She wrote letters to some important persons. In her letters she asked them to decide a day for all mothers. Then Mother’s Day was made on the second Sunday in May by the USA in 1913.
In China, Mother’s Day has become more and more popular in recent years. It’s a special holiday to show our love to mothers. Children give presents to their mothers or the whole family go out and try to do something nice for their mothers. Sending a pink or red carnation is always the best present to their mothers because it means “Happy mother longevity and health”. 一、根据文章内容，完成下列信息表。
