23．（8分）What does Thanksgiving mean to you? I hear one boy say, “It means a big dinner.” I think we all agree with him. Who does not welcome and enjoy a good dinner! I hear Mary say, “Thanksgiving means a day off from school.” I guess you are right too. School is not such a charming place that girls and boys are unwilling to have an occasional holiday.
Now I am going to ask some of the older people what the day means to them. There is a young woman. She is a stenographer (速记员). She says, “Thanksgiving means a day away from the office. I am at the office every day except Sunday, and I do appreciate, now and then, a day that is really my own.” Yonder is a traveling salesman. What does Thanksgiving mean to you? He says, “It means a day at home. Last year I spent one hundred and sixty-nine nights away from home. I have three children. I should like to see them every day. There are times when many days pass and I do not see them. Thanksgiving week I plan to be at home.”
There are others I could ask. Each has his answer. But Thanksgiving has a special meaning for us. It is the Harvest time. I have here an apple. Isn’t this a beautiful apple? What color! Who mixed the paints, who handled the brush to give such color to this apple? God. He, in his infinite love and wisdom, has provided, through the unfailing laws of nature, for the growth, sweetness, coloring and beautifying of all the products of the fields. This apple is but one of many kinds of fruits.
Praise, then, is the great meaning of Thanksgiving. God, our heavenly Father, sends us every good gift. From his generous hand come our daily and nightly mercies. We should praise him every day. But the day for the united chorus of praise is Thanksgiving.
1、The first two paragraphs want to tell us .
A．people have different ways to celebrate Thanksgiving
B．Thanksgiving has a different meaning for different people
C．how people celebrate their Thanksgiving
D．what Thanksgiving really means to most people
2、If the writer continued to ask an orphan what Thanksgiving means to him, he would most probably say, “It means ”.
A．a longer holiday at home
B．a delicious dinner with his friends
C．a beautiful song from a famous singer
D．a good day together with his parents
3、In the writer’s opinion, on Thanksgiving everyone should feel .
A．grateful for what they have
B．satisfied with what God gave us
C．amazed at how perfect an apple is
D．excited about how differently Thanksgiving means
24．（8分）According to scientists’ research, the month in which babies are born could affect them in some ways. Babies born in spring get sick easily. Children born under Aquarius (Jan. 21st ----Feb. 19th)may be less clever than those born in other seasons. They may also have shorter lives than those born in autumn. Scientists believe many of the differences can be explained by the mother's exposure to sunlight in pregnancy(怀孕).
Sunlight helps lead to the production of Vitamin(维生素) D in the body. The lack (缺乏)of vitamin D in the first months of life may have a bad effect on health.
Vitamin D is called the "sunshine vitamin". It has a good effect on health. A study showed that people born from April to June had slightly shorter lives than those born in October, November or December. Similar studies in the USA showed that people born in autumn lived about 160 days longer than those born in spring.
Professor Russell Foster said the conclusions were surprising and interesting. He added, "These are small effects but they are very, very clear. I am not giving voice to star signs and they are just for fun. But it is true that we are affected by our season of birth."
1、Babies born in ______get sick easily.
A．summer B．spring
C．autumn D．winter
2、What does the underlined word “exposure” mean in Chinese?
A．偏爱 B．抗拒
C．过敏 D．暴露
3、What can we know about vitamin D according to the passage?
A．It comes from sunlight B．It doesn’t help people live longer
C．Sunlight prevents its’ production D．It has a good effect on health
