In recent years，street parties have become more popular.Hundreds or even thousands of people gather in squares，main streets or on the river banks to listen to bands playing and to see fabulous fireworks displays. For people who stay at home，most watch special，live New Year shows on TV and countdown，along with the presenters，from 10 to 1 as the last seconds of the old year tick away and the bells of the New Year are rung. In Scotland，on New Year's Eve，people visit their neighbours and drink，dance and generally have a good time.If you're invited to a Scottish home，it's important to know what to bring with you：a lump of coal，some shortbread and some whisky. The coal shows warmth so you're wishing that the people you visit will have enough heat in the coming year.The shortbread represents food，so you're hoping that the people will have enough to eat in the New Year.Some Scots call whisky "the water of life"，so when you hand over your bottle to your hosts，it means you want them to have enough to drink over the next 12 months.

a time for celebrations for almost everyone around the world.In Britain，people go to pubs and nightclubs to dance the old year away，and to welcome in the new one at midnight.Everyone wants to kiss someone special （boyfriend，girlfriend or even a complete stranger!）as the bells ring out at midnight.新年几乎是全世界每个人庆祝的日子。在英国，人们去酒吧和夜总会跳新年舞，在午夜迎接新年的到来。每个人都想亲吻某个特别的人（男朋友，女朋友，甚至是一个完全陌生的人!）当午夜钟声响起的时候。"根据第四段"In Scotland，on New Year's Eve，people visit their neighbours and drink，dance and generally have a good time.在苏格兰，人们在新年前夕拜访邻居，喝酒、跳舞，通常都过得很愉快"。本文主要介绍了英国庆祝新年的活动方式。着重介绍了苏格兰新年的庆祝方式。所以短文最佳标题为"苏格兰新年的庆祝方式"。故选B。 （2）C.推理判断题。根据第二段"In recent years，street parties have become more popular.Hundreds or even thousands of people gather in squares，main streets or on the river banks to listen to bands playing and to see fabulous fireworks displays.近年来，街头派对越来越受欢迎。成百上千的人聚集在广场、主要街道或河岸上，听乐队演奏，看精彩的烟花表演。"由此可知，人们会在公共场合燃放烟花以示庆祝。故选C。 （3）C.细节理解题。根据第四段中"If you're invited to a Scottish home，it's important to know what to bring with you：a lump of coal，some shortbread and some whisky."如果你被邀请去苏格兰人家做客，一定要知道带什么东西：一块煤、一些酥饼和一些威士忌。"和第五段中"The shortbread represents food，so you're hoping that the people will have enough to eat in the New Year.Some Scots call whisky "the water of life"，so when you hand over your bottle to your hosts，it means you want them to have enough to drink over the next 12 months.酥饼代表食物，所以你希望人们在新的一年里有足够的食物。有些苏格兰人把威士忌称为"生命之水"，所以当你把酒瓶递给主人时，这意味着你希望他们在未来12个月里有足够的酒喝。"由此可知，到苏格兰人家里的拜访者要带着一些东西，这些东西都代表着拜访者美好的祝愿和祝福。故选C。 （4）B.细节理解题。根据最后一段"The first person to knock on a neighbour's door is supposed to be a tall，dark，handsome man.第一个敲邻居门的人应该是一个高大、黝黑、英俊的男人。"所以等一会儿这个高大、黝黑、英俊的男人就会出现。故划线词为" 高大、黝黑、英俊的男人"。B.a tall，dark，handsome man"一个高大、黝黑、英俊的男人"。故选B。 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！2

In recent years，street parties have become more popular.Hundreds or even thousands of people gather in squares，main streets or on the river banks to listen to bands playing and to see fabulous fireworks displays. For people who stay at home，most watch special，live New Year shows on TV and countdown，along with the presenters，from 10 to 1 as the last seconds of the old year tick away and the bells of the New Year are rung. In Scotland，on New Year's Eve，people visit their neighbours and drink，dance and generally have a good time.If you're invited to a Scottish home，it's important to know what to bring with you：a lump of coal，some shortbread and some whisky. The coal shows warmth so you're wishing that the people you visit will have enough heat in the coming year.The shortbread represents food，so you're hoping that the people will have enough to eat in the New Year.Some Scots call whisky "the water of life"，so when you hand over your bottle to your hosts，it means you want them to have enough to drink over the next 12 months. There's one more key task you still have to perform if you can.The first person to knock on a neighbour's door is supposed to be a tall，dark，handsome man.If you are，you'll bring good luck to the household.But what if that's not you？Well，don't ring the bell just yet.Wait a while and the right person will turn up soon! （1）What is the best title for this passage？ 　 　 A．Seeing the old year off in Britain.
