Ⅲ.任务型读写
(2017·马鞍山高三质检)Some young people have become disappointed with how commercialized Christmas has become. As a result, they try to break with established traditions.
What do they do to get more out of
Christmas?
Ways of celebrating
By booking a short holiday abroad they can escape winter weather. OK, so flying to warm countries is great for those who live in cold winter climates. But how do you celebrate Christmas
when your yearround climate is warm, or even hot?
In California, Santa Claus arrives on a surfboard, wearing an unusual red wetsuit. As long
as he comes bearing presents, Surfing Santa would probably be welcome anywhere.
In Australia, many young people enjoy the warm weather with a beach barbecue and cold beer. In recent years, Bondi Beach has become an attraction for overseas visitors to gather and celebrate. It's not uncommon for numbers to reach 40,000 on Christmas day.
Gift giving
We all know the feeling: you receive the kind of gift that you wouldn't choose for yourself in a million years. But you have to bear it pretending that you love your new present.
To avoid this experience, many people give gift vouchers (购物礼券) at Christmas. With this, the receivers can buy whatever they want.
Digital and electronic goods feature highly on many young people's Christmas wish lists. Not
surprisingly, then, the Guardian's top gifts for modern young people are：
Apple's iPad: The iPad is probably one of the hottest items of the year.
However you look
at it, almost everybody wants one.
Digital Cameras: Christmas is the perfect time to give this gift that can help you to catch those special seasonal memories. Digital cameras are not as expensive as they used to be, either. You can take a bargain for as little as D|S100.

2．选D 句意：这位巨星在他的经纪人的陪同下，出现在法庭上。the superstar与accompany构成逻辑上的动宾关系，故此处用动词的ed形式表伴随。
3．选C 句意：作为一个驾驶学员，Henry是一个失败者(a failure)，因为这一次驾考(the driving test)他又没通过。第一空后的failure在此处是抽象名词具体化的用法，a failure泛指“一个失败者”；第二空用the特指这一次的驾考。故答案选C。
4．选D 句意：在厨房那儿，站着一个我从未见过的姑娘。当here, there, now, then, thus等副词置于句首，且句子主语是名词时，句子应用全部倒装，即将句子的谓语动词置于主语之前。故答案选D。

10．选D 句意：我在一家小公司工作了两年，然后出国想碰碰运气。此处表示过去发生的动作且已经结束，故用一般过去时，D项正确。
11．选B 句意：就是这些有毒的产品可以引起流感症状，例如头疼和肌肉酸疼。分析题干可知，本题考查“It is＋被强调部分＋that/who从句”强调句型，被强调部分为主语these poisonous products，故选B项。
12．选C 句意：“我很小的时候，父母就去世了，我十岁时就开始以卖报为生。”“我真的很同情你。”sympathy意为“同情；同情心”， have sympathy for意为“对……表示同情”。
