The traditional family meal on Christmas Day, surprisingly enough, is a bucket of KFC.Demand for chicken is so high，in fact，that people often order their deep­fried meals weeks in advance.5.________ A．Don't worry.

E．According to Christmas celebrations，they should return roses. F．And they often wait in line for hours to receive their order. G．Christmas celebrations have made their way into Japanese culture. 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了日本的一些节日，如情人节和圣诞节。 1．解析：选D。本题属于选择段中细节支撑句。空前讲日本引入情人节，D项“它在20世纪30年代的一次市场营销活动中首次引入”介绍了情人节引入的具体时间，符合语境。 2．解析：选A。上文提到男士们如何回报呢？空后提到男士也要回送礼物，而且句末用的是感叹号，所以A项“别担心”符合语境，可引出下文。 3．解析：选G。下文介绍了人们庆祝圣诞节的方式，G项“圣诞节的庆祝已经成为日本文化的一部分”引出下文。 4．解析：选B。下文提到年轻人会在圣诞节沿着街道散步或外出就餐，再结合上文提到的romantic一词可知，B项“它很像情人节(的庆祝方式)”符合语境。 5．解析：选F。上文提到圣诞节人们订餐的情况，F项“人们通常排队几个小时才能收到他们订购的东西”承接上文，符合语境。 【文本研读】 (一)学读文——梳理文章思路 (2) 清障碍——剖析关键词义 熟词 生义 order(n.命令)→文章义：v．①订购，定制 present(n.礼物，赠品)→文章
