【語篇解讀】本文是一篇說明文，內(nèi)容為感恩節(jié)的介紹。1.

根據(jù)上句ThefourthThursdayinNovemberisanationaldayofthanksgivingintheUnitedStates.以及后句Itdatesbacktothe17thcenturywhensomeoftheearliestEnglishsettlersarrivedinNorthAmerica.（它起始于17世紀(jì)，那時(shí)一些英國移民最早來到美國。）可知，空處主要敘述感恩節(jié)傳統(tǒng)的由來。C項(xiàng)（這是一個(gè)很古老的傳統(tǒng)。）承上啟下，符合語境。故選C。2.?根據(jù)上句中suchasVietnam’sTrungThucelebrationandHomowo,theannualyamfestivalinGhana.可知，此處提到具體的慶?；顒?，所以空處為活動慶典的補(bǔ)充。B項(xiàng)（盡管如此，感恩節(jié)的火雞晚餐、家庭聚會、橄欖球比賽和游行仍有一些美國特色。）承接上文，符合語境。故選B。3.根據(jù)空后兩句Withournationdealingwithcrises...theyear’sloominguncertaintieslikelywillbeonmanymindstoday.以及PresidentAbrahamLincolnproclaimedthefirstofficialThanksgiving...theAmericanCivilWar.可知，空處主要敘述與感恩節(jié)伴隨的一些可能發(fā)生的事情和曾經(jīng)的歷史。E項(xiàng)（這也是人們回顧過去一年，進(jìn)行評估和思考未來的時(shí)候。）引出下文，符合語境。故選E。4.根據(jù)上一段提到面對需要應(yīng)對的問題和危機(jī)，結(jié)合下句Surroundedbyfriendsandtheirfamily,today,asinthepast,theywillenter....inafreeland.可知，空處表示轉(zhuǎn)折，即使遇到困難也會積極樂觀面對。D項(xiàng)（但是像他們的殖民祖先一樣，美國人很樂觀。）承上啟下，符合語境。故選D。5.根據(jù)上句Surroundedbyfriendsandtheirfamily,today,asinthepast,theywillenter...inafreeland.可知，家人和朋友圍坐在一起，感謝生活，憧憬未來，充滿樂觀，所以空處主要敘述人們在感恩節(jié)是快樂的，是充滿感恩之情的。G項(xiàng)（在感恩節(jié)，人們表達(dá)他們對生活的祝福和光明的未來的感謝。）承接上文，符合語境。故選A。學(xué)習(xí)理解A3提取概括第二節(jié)1.題干問的是感恩節(jié)在美國的起源。根據(jù)題干定位到文章的第1段的第3句和第4句話，意思為“它起始于17世紀(jì)，那時(shí)一些英國移民最早來到美國。在第一次成功地獲得了豐收之后，他們停下來慶祝他們的饋贈，并感謝他們在當(dāng)時(shí)的荒野度過了第一個(gè)可怕的冬天”。所以本題的答案為“TheoriginofThanksgivingDaydatesbacktothe17thcenturywhensomeoftheearliestEnglishsettlersarrivedinNorthAmerica.Aftertheirfirstsuccessfulharvest,theypausedtocelebratetheirbountyandgivethanksforsurvivingtheirfirstterriblewinterinwhatwasthenawilderness.”A3提取概括2.題干問的是感恩節(jié)與獨(dú)立日的共同之處。根據(jù)題干定位到文章的第2段，該段的最后一句話闡述了感恩節(jié)與獨(dú)立日的共同之處，該句的意思為“連同7月4日，這一美國從英國獨(dú)立的日子，它是一個(gè)真正的全國性節(jié)日，所有公民都有一個(gè)共同的目的，不分宗教、政治或民族信仰”。所以，本題的答案為“Theyarebothtrulynationalholidaysthatincludeallcitizensinamonpurpose
