Kuyper took the chicken to his parents house where it is being introduced to a new group of hens.

Along with my sister, my mother and I would make simple flower baskets by making paper into cones(圆锥形). Then, we filled the bottom of the cone with small candies before putting some flowers into it. With our May Day baskets in hand, my sister and I became anonymous gift-givers. After hanging a basket on the front door of a neighbour or friend, we rang the doorbell and ran away. The goal was to remain secret givers. Historically, the first day of May, often referred to as “May Day”, has been recognised as a celebration of spring, of life and growth. Parades(游行) and dances are ways that the day has beenand continues to becelebrated in many parts of the world. Although formal May Day celebrations may be less common now, it is always worth celebrating. Here are some simple and lovely ways to celebrate May Day in our homes and with those we love:Making a May Day basket is always a great choice. Although the May Day basket we made as children was simple, the making of the basket was a joy in itself. Consider making or buying some flowers for friends. Fill the basket with a few sweets and write a note thanking your friend or neighbour for their kindness, their presence, and their love. On May Day, we also take flowers to a local hospital or nursing home. Flowers are always welcome in places that are too often full of sadness. Stopping to have a conversation with a patient and thanking a nurse would be an additional giftto the receiver and to us!Besides, we always give friends small gifts to celebrate May Day. A small book or magazine with a note, an art print celebrating springthe choices are endless. When your friends are far away, an unexpected gift can reawaken friendship across the miles. 8. The underlined part “anonymous gift-givers” refers to people who. A. are serious about gift-givingB. dont know the value of giftsC. are careful about every small detailD. give gifts but dont want their names to be known解析:词义猜测题。根据画线部分后的“After hanging a basket . we rang the doorbell and ran away.”和“secret givers”可知,anonymous gift-givers的意思应该是“匿名的赠送礼物者”。答案:D9.

What is the passage mainly about?A. The history of May Day.B. Great family traditions. C. Celebrating May Day.D. Flowers for festivals. 解析:主旨大意题。通读全文可知,本文主要介绍了庆祝五朔节的一些方式。故选C项。答案:CDThis spring, you may be fortunate enough to have good weather, a small piece of earth and the energy, enthusiasm and inspiration to plant a garden. There is nothing better to shake off the boredom and dullness of winter than to dig in the earth, plant some seeds and watch them grow. A small garden can produce something extra fresh for dinner, flowers for the table and a feeling of accomplishment. It is work, but it is ever so rewarding. What about your life garden? Just as a beautiful garden is a work in progress, so is the garden in your mind. It takes effort, planning, nurturing(培育) and weeding(除草) to grow a garden. What have you plantedwhat have you allowed to take root? Is your life the picture of a well laid out garden or an untidy mixture of plants, trees and weeds whose seeds were blown way and took root? We have all heard phrases like “sowing seeds of doubt” or “sowing seeds of discontent”. We can make a careful choice whether to allow them to take root in our lives or throw them out of our garden. Negative energy and words, like weeds, will spread quickly if left unchecked. Find a good “weed killer”a book, an inspirational story, or positive affirmations(肯定)to help you get rid of the thoughts that reduce the beauty of your garden. Plant as many seeds of joy and beauty as you can in your own life and in the lives of the people with whom you live and work every day. Grow a gratitude garden, a peace garden and a dream garden. Look after them daily. If you give them time and energy, you will have a rich harvest of success, happiness and peace of mind. 12. Why does the author tell us the benefits of growing a garden?A. To lead to the life garden.B. To introduce rewarding work.C. To show his love for gardening. D. To suggest a way to kill boredom. 解析:推理判断题。分析第一段可知,作者通过描述花园带给人们的愉悦而引出“生命的花园”,即通过类比引出本文的主题。答案:A13. In what way is our life garden similar to a beautiful garden? A. It changes all the time. B. It needs our effort and nurturing. C. It can make us happy and grateful in life. D. It is full of both positive and negative energy. 解析:细节理解题。由第二段中的“Just as a beautiful garden is a work in progress, so is the garden in your mind. It takes effort, planning, nurturing and weeding to grow a garden.”可知,我们生命的花园也需要我们的努力和培育才能有好的结果,这跟我们现实生活中的花园是一样的。答案:B14. Why does the author compare negative energy and words to weeds? A. They are a natural part of life. B. They are often left unchecked. C. They are difficult to be removed. D. They need to be removed before they spread. 解析:推理判断题。由第三段中的“Negative energy and words, like weeds, will spread quickly if left unchecked.”可知,负能量和充满负能量的语言就像杂草一样,如果不及时清除就会迅速蔓延。答案:D15. Which of the following can be regarded as a weed killer? A. Reading a dull book. B. Expressing our discontent. C. Having positive self-talks.D. Pulling up weeds in the garden.解析:细节理解题。由第三段中的“a book, an inspirational story, or positive affirmations”可知,我们内心积极的自我交谈可以清除我们的负能量,即为“杂草清理剂”。答案:C第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)根据下面短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。First rains of the season always make everybody happy.
