參考答案：—、完形填空1.A解析：結(jié)合后面的“specialholidayswithgiftsandfood”可知，很多國家以禮物和食物作為特殊節(jié)日的標(biāo)志。2.D解析：根據(jù)后面的“bringpeopletogetherandallowustofeelapartofthefamilyandcommunity”可知，此處指節(jié)日的傳統(tǒng)使人們團(tuán)聚起來。3.B解析：根據(jù)空前的“Thegiftsandfoodthatweshareareallabout”和后面的“asenseofgratitudeandjoy”可知，禮物與食物是感激和喜悅的一種表達(dá)方式。4.C解析：結(jié)合語境可知，此處表示幾代人之前人們送的節(jié)日禮物可能更有用并且是自制的。5.A解析：根據(jù)后面的“wonderfulpresentsprobablydidn’tdoasmuchbuyingandspendingaswedotoday”可知，即使買得起美好禮物的人們，也不像我們現(xiàn)在這樣熱衷于購買禮物。6.D解析：結(jié)合后面的“andgiftgivinghasbecomeaboomingindustry”可知，現(xiàn)在送節(jié)日禮物已經(jīng)很商業(yè)化。7.B解析：根據(jù)后面的“meaningbehindthetraditiongetslost”可知，有的時(shí)候，傳統(tǒng)背后的原來的意義失去了。8.C解析：空處與空前的getslost對比，指送禮物呈現(xiàn)自己的生機(jī)。takeon“呈現(xiàn)”。9.A解析：根據(jù)前面的“Notonlyisthepressureonspendingmoney”可知，人們不僅僅在購買合適的禮物方面有壓力。10.D解析：空處與前面的“giftsbecomethecentralpointofaholiday”中的centralpoint呼應(yīng)，指人們也重視收禮。11.B解析：根據(jù)后面的“tohavehighexpectationsofwhat’sinthatbeautifullywrappedbox”可知，對于一個(gè)包裝精美的盒子里面有什么禮物，人們太容易抱有很高的期望。12.C解析：根據(jù)空前的but可知，此處與前面的highexpectations形式對比，表示“但是那可能會(huì)讓任何人失望”。13.A解析：與前面的“thematerialisticaspectsoftheholiday”對比，此處指節(jié)日的物質(zhì)主義方面超過了它原來的意義。14.D解析：與前面的feelingempty呼應(yīng)，空處指人們希望得到更多。15.B解析：“feeling15andfulfilled(滿足的）”與前面的“feelingsadorempty“構(gòu)成對比，故選B項(xiàng)。16.A解析：由前面的“Notallpeoplethinktheholidaysaretoomaterialistic”可知，并不是所有人都看重節(jié)日的物質(zhì)方面，大多數(shù)人重視它們的傳統(tǒng)方面。17.C解析：結(jié)合后面的“withfriendsandfamily”可知，此處表示與朋友和家人們一起慶祝節(jié)日。18.D解析：一些人喜歡購物，覺得送禮物和收禮物都可以接受。Just“正好，恰好”，符合語境。19.C解析：由下文內(nèi)容可知，此處指如果你感到有一點(diǎn)空虛的話。上文中的“l(fā)eavepeoplefeelingempty”也是信息提示。20.A解析：此處指把節(jié)日的精神帶回來，關(guān)注傳統(tǒng)和服務(wù)，即重視給予禮物的意義。二、語法填空1.frequently解析：考查副詞?？仗幩钤~修飾動(dòng)詞短語isknownas，應(yīng)用副詞。2.to解析：考查介詞。relateto...表示“與…有關(guān)聯(lián)”是固定短語。3.
