　　Ⅰ.阅读理解

　　Dear Betty，

　　My roommate’s family wants me to celebrate Thanksgiving Day with them in their home.I accepted the invitation，and I’m excited about going，but I’m a little nervous about it，too.The social customs in my country are different from those here，so I’m a little worried about making mistakes.

　　Should I bring a gift，such as candy or flowers？Should I arrive on time or a little late？At the dinner table，how can I know which fork or knife to use？How can I let the family know that I’m thankful for their kindness?

　　Yours，

　　Knowing Nothing

　　Dear Knowing Nothing，

　　It’s a good idea to bring a gift when you go to a dinner party.Flowers are always welcome，or you can bring a bottle of wine if you know the family drink it.

　　You should arrive on time or five to ten minutes late.Don’t get there early.If you are going to be more than fifteen minutes late，you should call and tell them.

　　Try to relax at the dinner table.If you don’t know how to use the right fork，knife or spoon，just watch the other guests，and follow them.If you still have no idea of what to do，don’t be shy about asking the person next to you；it’s better to ask them than to be silently uncomfortable and nervous.

　　If you like the food，say so.Of course，you’ll thank the host and hostess for the meal and for their kindness.It’s also a good idea to send a card to thank them the day after.

　　Yours，

　　Betty

　　mostly with moss(苔藓) and then covered the moss with a thin layer of blueberries so that it looked

　　23

　　.But the next morning，he found the blueberry pie which his mother

　　Ⅱ.5.D　6.B　7.C　8.E　9.F

　　Ⅲ.10.B　[obviously明显地；personally 亲自地，就自己而言；luckily 幸运地；quickly迅速地，很快。分析句意为“就自己而言，我更喜欢有激情和热情的人而不是有技术和才能的人。”]

　　11．A　[由下句“You can teach and develop skills...”及上下文语境可知，此处应填skills。]

　　12．C　[根据空格前后句意可知，前后为转折关系，故选but。]

　　14．C　[use使用；deserve值得；lose丢失，丢掉；cherish珍惜。分析句意为“另外，那些还是从一出生就具有，而且永远不会丢掉的特质。”]
