The day after Thanksgiving is the start of the holiday shopping season. Thanksgiving is always on a Thursday, so the day after is a Friday. This day has come to be known as Black Friday. It has been the busiest shopping day of the year since 2005.
Most stores offer great deals on Black Friday. They open their doors very early in the morning. They try to attract shoppers with big discounts. Some products like TVs are much cheaper than usual. Stores may even lose money on these products. They hope that shoppers will buy gifts for other people while they are in the store.
Black Friday is a great time to get good deals. The problem is that there are not enough low-priced products to go around. Each store may only have a few.People stand in long lines to get such great deals, but not everyone who wants one will get one. Some people look crestfallen as they leave.
Some Black Friday events have been violent. Large crowds have trampled(踩踏) workers. Fights have broken out over toys or people cutting in line. But most Black Friday events are safe and fun. Still, if you plan on going, expect large crowds.
The name “Black Friday” was first used in Philadelphia in the 1950s. Police officers called this day Black Friday because of the heavy traffic it drew. In the 1960s, stores tried to rename the day “Big Friday”. It did not stick. The name “Black Friday” continued to be used across the country. It seems that it is here to stay.
Now people all over the country take part in Black Friday. It is even spreading to other parts of the world. Stores have held Black Friday events in the U.K., Australia, and Brazil since 2012. In Costa Rica Black Friday is known as “Viernes Negro”.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一个重要的购物节日——“黑色星期五”。
4.Why do some stores sell TVs at low prices?
A.They are short of money.
B.They want to sell out old products.
C.They want people to buy other things.
D.They want people to enjoy their shopping.
C 解析:细节理解题。根据第二段中的They hope that shoppers will buy gifts for other people while they are in the store.可知,有些商店赔本卖电视是希望顾客能够买其他产品。
5.What does the underlined word“crestfallen” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A.Disappointed. B.Confused.
C.Surprised. D.Excited.
A 解析:词义猜测题。根据第三段中的but not everyone who wants one will get one可知,没有买到廉价商品的顾客只能失望地离开。
6.How did the first Black Friday get its name?
A.It led to violent events.
B.It caused a lot of traffic.
C.It attracted large crowds.
D.It wasted too much money.
B 解析:细节理解题。根据第五段中的Police officers called this day Black Friday because of the heavy traffic it drew.可知,黑色星期五的命名与那天的交通拥堵有关。
7.What does the last paragraph say about Black Friday?
A.It has been celebrated as an old tradition.
B.It is a national holiday of the United States.
C.It has become an international shopping holiday.
D.It is called “Viernes Negro” in the English world.
C 解析:推理判断题。由最后一段可知,“黑色星期五”已经成为了一个国际购物节。

3.will catch 解析:考查动词的时态。这里是表示将来的事情,因此用一般将来时。
4.thinking 解析:考查非谓语动词。without是介词,后接动名词作宾语。

古罗马帝国不仅仅在政治上强大、 版图上辽阔, 它所创造的古罗马文化在哲学、文学、建筑等方面, 也是全人类巨大的精神财富, 是世界古典文化中的瑰宝。
Ancient Rome is that time in history when the Roman Empire existed.At its peak, the empire included most of Europe, northern Africa, and the Middle East.The Romans were known for their army, architecture, and government.The empire existed from about 100 B.C.to 500 A.D.
Although many people talk about the “rise and fall” of the Roman Empire, others focus on how the civilization changed over time.Both positives(i.e., art and architecture) and negatives(i.e., slavery and cruelty) can be identified in the culture throughout the history of Ancient Rome.
The first settlements were established around 753 B.C.At the height of the empire around 200 A.D., the empire covered 2.5 million square miles.The Western Empire fell in 476 A.D.and the Eastern Empire lasted until 1453.
Based on strict organization and centralized(中央集权的) control, the empire was connected by a huge network of roads with the city of Rome in the center.Each town was planned in exactly the same way including a system of streets, running water, and sewers(污水管).The Forum at the center of town was surrounded by shops, temples, and government buildings.A strong army defended and expanded the empire.The soldiers belonged to legions(军队) of about 5,000 people.They were highly trained and well-equipped with armor, shields, spears, and swords.A well-organized civil service system governed the people.Roman history contains many famous figures including Augustus, the first emperor, Julius Caesar, Caligula, and Nero.
The Romans had many festivals and rituals(仪式) for events such as childbirth, marriage, and funerals.Like Greek culture, Roman culture was known for its mythology.The Romans enjoyed food, baths, and all kinds of entertainment.

失落的文明
第一天,7月15日
能获得这次旅行的机会我感到很幸运。现在我们在意大利,明天我们将游览庞贝。下周我们会飞往中国并打算去楼兰,那是沙漠中的一座被誉为“中国庞贝”的古城。庞贝和楼兰都是很久以前失落的文明。
第二天,7月16日
今天上午我们听了一场有关庞贝的讲座。这座城市创建于公元前8世纪。公元前89年,罗马人占领了庞贝。后来庞贝成了一座繁华的城市。离该城不远处有一座火山。公元79年8月24日,火山喷发,火山岩浆,火山灰及岩石喷涌而出覆盖了周围的村庄。火山喷发持续了两天。很多人被活埋了,整个城市也被掩埋。多么不幸啊!
第三天,7月17日
今天我见到了罗马古城庞贝,它就跟两千年前一模一样。多令人惊奇啊!这座城市多年来一直被人们遗忘,直到18世纪时一个农民发现了一块刻有文字的石头。人们开始在这一区域挖掘寻宝,这造成了很大的破坏。因此在1860年,政府将这一区域保护了起来,便于保存和研究。
When I walked around the city, I saw streets just as they had been,with stepping stones along the road( so you did not have to step in the mud(on rainy days! I saw several houses which were decorated( with wall paintings(. I also saw the people who had been buried alive. It turns out that after the ash covered the people who failed to flee(the city, their bodies nearly completely broke down and disappeared, leaving empty spaces in the ash. Years later, researchers( were able to use these empty spaces to produce true -to -life( figures of the people who had died in the disaster(. You can see them today in Pompeii, in the same places where the people fell(. The volcano is still there, but looks very quiet now. It’s hard to imagine(how this peaceful volcano destroyed( the whole city(!
Day 10,24 July
Finally, we arrived in Loulan after several days of travelling. This commercial( city was busy and wealthy( about 2,000 years ago. It was a stopping point on the famous Silk Road between the East and the West. It is believed to have been gradually( covered over( by sandstorms( from AD 200 to AD 400.(I am so excited to be here!,when 引导时间状语从句;as 引导方式状语从句。

当我在城中漫步时,我看到保持原样的街道,沿路都有垫脚石,这样下雨天你就不用在泥泞中行走了!我看到了几处装饰着壁画的房子。我也看到了被活埋的人。原来,火山灰覆盖了没能逃离城市的人,他们的身体几乎全部烧化消失了,只留下火山灰里的人形空当。多年之后,研究者们能够利用这些人形空当制作出逼真的遇难者轮廓。你现在可以在庞贝看到他们,就在他们原来倒下的同样的位置。火山还在那里,但现在看起来非常平静。很难想象这座平静的火山是如何毁掉整座城市的!
第十天,7月24日
经过好几天的旅程,我们终于抵达了楼兰。这座商业城市在大约两千年前也曾繁华过。它是连接东西方著名的丝绸之路上的停靠点。人们相信,从公元200年到公元400年,它已被沙尘暴逐渐吞没。能在这里我很兴奋!
Day 11,25 July
A scholar from the local cultural(institute(,Professor Zhang, told us that around the year 1900 the European explorer Sven Hedin discovered the ruins(of the Loulan Kingdom. Sven found the remains( of buildings buried beneath( the sand(, together with( a lot of treasures, including coins, painted( pots(, material( such as silk, documents( and wall paintings. When we went to the city, we saw the city walls, palaces, temples, workshops( and towers. We found the ruins most interesting(.

第十一天,7月25日
来自当地文化研究所的一位学者张教授告诉我们,大约在1900年,来自欧洲的探险家斯文·海定发现了楼兰王国的遗迹。斯文发现了埋藏于沙子下面的建筑物遗迹以及许多宝藏,包括钱币、彩绘罐、像丝绸这样的布料、文献以及壁画。当我们到这座城市时,我们看到了城墙、宫殿、庙宇、作坊及高塔。我们发现楼兰废墟非常有趣。有一条古老的供水系统贯穿市中心。这片沙漠曾经是大树成荫的绿洲,但这些树被砍倒了,导致楼兰这座城市被沙子埋没——多遗憾啊!

The day after Thanksgiving is the start of the holiday shopping season. Thanksgiving is always on a Thursday, so the day after is a Friday. This day has come to be known as Black Friday. It has been the busiest shopping day of the year since 2005.
Most stores offer great deals on Black Friday. They open their doors very early in the morning. They try to attract shoppers with big discounts. Some products like TVs are much cheaper than usual. Stores may even lose money on these products. They hope that shoppers will buy gifts for other people while they are in the store.
Black Friday is a great time to get good deals. The problem is that there are not enough low-priced products to go around. Each store may only have a few.People stand in long lines to get such great deals, but not everyone who wants one will get one. Some people look crestfallen as they leave.
Some Black Friday events have been violent. Large crowds have trampled(踩踏) workers. Fights have broken out over toys or people cutting in line. But most Black Friday events are safe and fun. Still, if you plan on going, expect large crowds.
The name “Black Friday” was first used in Philadelphia in the 1950s. Police officers called this day Black Friday because of the heavy traffic it drew. In the 1960s, stores tried to rename the day “Big Friday”. It did not stick. The name “Black Friday” continued to be used across the country. It seems that it is here to stay.
Now people all over the country take part in Black Friday. It is even spreading to other parts of the world. Stores have held Black Friday events in the U.K., Australia, and Brazil since 2012. In Costa Rica Black Friday is known as “Viernes Negro”.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一个重要的购物节日——“黑色星期五”。

D.They want people to enjoy their shopping.
C 解析:细节理解题。根据第二段中的They hope that shoppers will buy gifts for other people while they are in the store.可知,有些商店赔本卖电视是希望顾客能够买其他产品。

A.Disappointed. B.Confused.
C.Surprised. D.Excited.
A 解析:词义猜测题。根据第三段中的but not everyone who wants one will get one可知,没有买到廉价商品的顾客只能失望地离开。
6.How did the first Black Friday get its name?
A.It led to violent events.
B.It caused a lot of traffic.
C.It attracted large crowds.
D.It wasted too much money.
B 解析:细节理解题。根据第五段中的Police officers called this day Black Friday because of the heavy traffic it drew.可知,黑色星期五的命名与那天的交通拥堵有关。

B.It is a national holiday of the United States.
C.It has become an international shopping holiday.
D.It is called “Viernes Negro” in the English world.

1.the 解析:考查冠词。all the time 是固定短语,意为“一直”。
2.naturally 解析:考查副词。所填词修饰动词come,因此需要用其副词形式。
3.will catch 解析:考查动词的时态。这里是表示将来的事情,因此用一般将来时。
4.thinking 解析:考查非谓语动词。without是介词,后接动名词作宾语。
5.For 解析:考查介词。for直接加复数名词,在句子中作状语,意为“多少时间以来”。for years 意为:几年来,多年来。
6.best 解析:考查形容词的最高级。one of + the 形容词最高级表示“最……之一”。此处意思是他练习、训练成为有史以来最为优秀的篮球运动员之一。
7.decision 解析:考查名词。前面用one修饰,故用decide的名词形式。
8.that/which 解析:考查定语从句。先行词是habit,从句缺少主语,因此应该填that或which引导定语从句。
9.daily 解析:考查形容词。所填词介于形容词性物主代词和名词之间,因此应该是形容词,再结合语义可知,此处应填daily,his daily habits他的日常习惯。
10.to give 解析:考查非谓语动词。remember not to do sth.,记得不要做某事。
