Last autumn my parents were studying in Canada,and brought me over with them.

It was soon my birthday.

   Then came Halloween. Once I asked Mum why there was Halloween. She told me a lot about ghosts (鬼) .

   “ Sweets are like good words for the dead ,” Mum told me. “The more,the better. They can help the dead go to a better place. ”

   On the day before Halloween,Mum bought me witches’(女巫) clothes. They were black,with a hat.

   The next day,at about 6:30 pm,I went out with my parents. It was dark. Many people got together around a house. They were asking for sweets. Lots of children were dressed in different clothes. I pushed in and stretched (伸) out my hand. I got some.

   “Wow!There's nothing hard about this ,” I thought.

Some kids left the house and started to ask for sweets door to door. I decided to go with them. I wanted more. I was a little afraid at first. But the people at each house were very kind. They gave me lots of sweets.

   When I went home that day,I found that my sweets could fill a whole big box!

  “The sweets could last through the year! ” I thought,and they did.

1. My parents lived in Canada for last year.

   A. studying   B. making money

   C. a tour   D. a visit to me

2. My mother bought me witches’ clothes for .

   A. my birthday   B. Halloween

3. I asked for sweets door to door .

   A. on the morning of my birthday

   B. on the evening before Halloween

   C. on the morning of Halloween

   D. on the evening of Halloween

   B. On Halloween,the more sweets you get,the better it is.

   C. It was not easy for me to ask for sweets door to door.

   D. People were very kind when I asked for sweets.

5. What is the best title for the passage?

   A. Life in Canada

   B. An Unforgettable Halloween

   C. My Special Birthday

   D. My Visit to Canada

1. A 2. B 3. D 4. C 5. B

   這是一篇記敘文。作者冋憶的是和父母一起在加拿大 度過的那個難忘的萬圣節(jié),奇異的裝扮、沒完沒了地挨家討 要糖塊,這些對作者來說都是從未有過的體驗。

詳析

1. A 細節(jié)理解題。由首句 “ Last autumn my parents were

studying in Canada. wf知,我的父母去年去加拿大是

學習的。

2. B推理判斷題。由第四段介紹“On the day before

Halloween,Mum bought me witches’ clothes. ”可知,媽 媽在節(jié)日前給我買了這件衣服,聯(lián)系下一段“ Lots of children were dressed in different clothes. ”可判斷,媽媽 給我買的這件衣服就是為了迎接萬圣節(jié)的

3. D細節(jié)理解題。第五段句首The next day指的就是萬圣

節(jié),由6:30 pm可知,接下來的這些活動都發(fā)生在萬圣 節(jié)晚上。

4. C細節(jié)理解題。在第五段中,我討得了很多糖塊后深有

感受,即“There's nothing hard about this”,由此可知,C 項中“It was not easy for me."與原文這一細節(jié)不一致。故C項是錯誤的。

5. B主旨大意題綜合理解全文可知,本文主要回憶了我

和爸爸媽媽一起在加拿大度過的那一個有意義的萬圣 節(jié)。故本文標題應該是“An Unforgettable Halloween”

dress v.打扮 door to door挨家挨戶 decide v.決定 fill v.裝滿

障礙句分析

Sweets are like good words for the dead.糖果對于逝者來 說就像是好聽的話。

like是介詞,be like意思是“像”!岸ü谠~the +形容 詞”結構表示的是一類人,the dead意為“死者”。

    There was a very self-sufficient (自負的) blind man,who did a lot of traveling alone. He was making his first trip to Texas and happened to be seated next to a Texan on the flight.
