He caught it with one hand. He then found another, and caught it in his other hand. That was when he saw a very unusual bug running around. Thinking quickly, he put one of the insects he was holding into his 4 so that he could catch the new one. In a second, he realized he had made a big 5 —the bug in his mouth let out some sour juice that made him spit (吐) it out. In a cough, he 6 all three bugs and had to start looking all over again! He couldn’t help but 7 at what had happened: how amazing! It also gave him a great idea: why not 8 a club where he and his friends could taste other unusual things? Charles set up the Glutton Club to share his interest in 9 strange creatures. The members would serve different insects and then compare their tastes to see which tasted best.

So he preferred to be around children. He was interested in math, drawing and writing poems as well. On the July of 4, 1862, Charles went on a picnic with some friends up the Isis River. One of the children on the picnic was a ten-year-old girl named Alice. Alice begged Charles to tell her one of his stories. So he began telling her a story about a young girl named Alice and her adventures underground. The story was attractive. At the end of the story, Alice told Charles that she hoped he would write down Alice’s stories for her. Charles promised her that he would try.

We practiced singing for Christmas party in the gym. Then Mr. Breitenbush announced (宣布) a gift exchange (交换) during the Christmas program among all the students in the school. And we’d be Santa’s little helpers. Everybody was excited. On our way out of the gym, we each pulled out of a piece of paper with a name on it from a box. Ressig’s name was on my paper. When I found out who had my name, I was very sad. It was Betsy McClure! She started school late in the year and knew nothing. Her family lived in a poor house. That made her poorer than the rest of us. My little heart sank (下沉). I decided I hated Betsy McClure. Then the party came. I wanted to hide when we began the gift exchange. One name was called and then another. Kids laughed happily as they received their gifts. “Betsy, McClure,” Santa called. I saw Betsy stand up slowly. “Delores Kennedy,” Santa called out. My turn had come. I looked across to see Betsy on her feet, coming towards me. I stood up from my chair. Betsy handed me a small paper bag. “Merry Christmas,” she said in a low voice. She was smiling at me and searching my eyes for a hint (暗示) of acceptance. “I… I… thank you,” I said and opened the bag. I looked in, then back at her. It was a star made of twigs (细枝), tied with green grass. It must have taken hours to make! I suddenly felt very small. “But Betsy…” I started to say. The smile on her face stopped me. It happened to me that I’d never seen her smile in all the weeks. 21．What did Mr. Breitenbush announce? A．Helping Santa. B．Joining the Christmas program. C．Singing for Christmas party.

Gifts can express how we feel, but they can also pass on messages that we didn’t plan to give. 26 In some cultures that think highly of gift-giving, there is a ritual（仪式）in the giving and receiving of gifts. In Japan, for example, gifts are both given and received using both hands. The giver says something like “It isn’t much, but I want to show my appreciation（感激）.” 27 Then the receiver will accept the gift and put it away to be opened later. The choice of gifts is important, naturally, and in some cultures it’s easy to offend（冒犯）a person by giving the wrong gift. 28 For example, a gift of a knife in Brazil or an umbrella in China might be seen as the ending of a relationship. The relationship between the giver and the receiver can also tell us what kind of gift is suitable. For example, in the United States, gifts such as perfume（香水）are only given to women by boyfriends or husbands. 29 Although the culture of gift-giving is different from one society to another, they all have an idea in common: In any country, when choosing gifts we must always consider the message we wish to show with the gift and think about whether or not it is suitable for the receiver. 30 Your gift will be valued if it shows consideration and respect for the receiver’s culture. A．The givers must consider the symbols of gifts. B．So gift-giving manners in any culture should be dealt with carefully. C．Never forget to follow that before deciding on a gift. D．The receiver of the gift will refuse once or twice, but the giver will insist（坚持）. E．If a woman receives such a gift from her friend or relative, it might be considered strange. F．How funny it is that a man is given some flowers! 【答案】26．B 27．D 28．A 29．E 30．C 【导语】本文主要介绍了送礼是所有人类社会的重要组成部分，在任何文化中的“送礼”礼节都应被认真对待。文中通过举例、对比不同国家的送礼文化，以表达礼物对接收者文化尊重的重要性，以及注重一些送礼礼仪和细节的重要性。 26．根据“Gifts can express how we feel, but they can also pass on messages that we didn’t plan to give.”可知礼物可以表达我们的感受，但也可以传递我们不打算送的信息，所以送礼时要认真对待，选项B“因此，任何文化中的送礼礼仪都应该小心处理”符合语境。故选B。 27．根据“Then the receiver will accept the gift and put it away to be opened later.”可知然后，接收者将接受礼物，说明之前他可能是拒绝接受礼物，选项D“接收者的人会拒绝一两次，但送礼者会坚持”符合语境。故选D。 28．根据“a gift of a knife in Brazil or an umbrella in China might be seen as the ending of a relationship”可知介绍的是礼物的象征意义，选项A“送礼者必须考虑礼物的象征”符合语境。故选A。 29．根据“The relationship between the giver and the receiver can also tell us what kind of gift is suitable. For example, in the United States, gifts such as perfume（香水）are only given to women by boyfriends or husbands.”可知此处介绍的是送礼者和接收者之间的关系会影响送礼，在美国，香水只能由男朋友或丈夫送给女士，选项E“如果一个女人从她的朋友或亲戚那里收到这样的礼物，可能会被认为很奇怪”符合语境。故选E。 30．根据“In any country, when choosing gifts we must always consider the message we wish to show with the gift and think about whether or not it is suitable for the receiver”可知在任何国家，在选择礼物时，我们都必须考虑我们希望用礼物表达的信息，并考虑它是否适合接收者，选项C“在决定礼物之前，千万不要忘记遵循这一点”符合语境。故选C。 四、阅读匹配（共5小题，每小题1分，满分5分） 下面的材料A—F分别介绍了深圳的本地6个趣味节日，请根据Karen、Allen、Landy、Rachel和Jim的需求为他们推荐最合适的节日。 31 .

Bug-mad Charles soon became one of these “collectors”. Once, Charles found a dead tree—a great place to 3 new insects! He pulled away some of its bark (树皮) and found a very beautiful bug. He caught it with one hand. He then found another, and caught it in his other hand. That was when he saw a very unusual bug running around. Thinking quickly, he put one of the insects he was holding into his 4 so that he could catch the new one. In a second, he realized he had made a big 5 —the bug in his mouth let out some sour juice that made him spit (吐) it out. In a cough, he 6 all three bugs and had to start looking all over again! He couldn’t help but 7 at what had happened: how amazing! It also gave him a great idea: why not 8 a club where he and his friends could taste other unusual things?

We practiced singing for Christmas party in the gym. Then Mr. Breitenbush announced (宣布) a gift exchange (交换) during the Christmas program among all the students in the school. And we’d be Santa’s little helpers. Everybody was excited. On our way out of the gym, we each pulled out of a piece of paper with a name on it from a box. Ressig’s name was on my paper. When I found out who had my name, I was very sad. It was Betsy McClure! She started school late in the year and knew nothing. Her family lived in a poor house. That made her poorer than the rest of us. My little heart sank (下沉). I decided I hated Betsy McClure. Then the party came. I wanted to hide when we began the gift exchange. One name was called and then another. Kids laughed happily as they received their gifts. “Betsy, McClure,” Santa called. I saw Betsy stand up slowly. “Delores Kennedy,” Santa called out. My turn had come. I looked across to see Betsy on her feet, coming towards me. I stood up from my chair. Betsy handed me a small paper bag. “Merry Christmas,” she said in a low voice. She was smiling at me and searching my eyes for a hint (暗示) of acceptance. “I… I… thank you,” I said and opened the bag. I looked in, then back at her. It was a star made of twigs (细枝), tied with green grass. It must have taken hours to make! I suddenly felt very small. “But Betsy…” I started to say. The smile on her face stopped me. It happened to me that I’d never seen her smile in all the weeks. 21．What did Mr. Breitenbush announce? A．Helping Santa. B．Joining the Christmas program. C．Singing for Christmas party.

Gifts can express how we feel, but they can also pass on messages that we didn’t plan to give. 26 In some cultures that think highly of gift-giving, there is a ritual（仪式）in the giving and receiving of gifts. In Japan, for example, gifts are both given and received using both hands. The giver says something like “It isn’t much, but I want to show my appreciation（感激）.” 27 Then the receiver will accept the gift and put it away to be opened later. The choice of gifts is important, naturally, and in some cultures it’s easy to offend（冒犯）a person by giving the wrong gift. 28 For example, a gift of a knife in Brazil or an umbrella in China might be seen as the ending of a relationship. The relationship between the giver and the receiver can also tell us what kind of gift is suitable. For example, in the United States, gifts such as perfume（香水）are only given to women by boyfriends or husbands. 29 Although the culture of gift-giving is different from one society to another, they all have an idea in common: In any country, when choosing gifts we must always consider the message we wish to show with the gift and think about whether or not it is suitable for the receiver. 30 Your gift will be valued if it shows consideration and respect for the receiver’s culture. A．The givers must consider the symbols of gifts. B．So gift-giving manners in any culture should be dealt with carefully. C．Never forget to follow that before deciding on a gift. D．The receiver of the gift will refuse once or twice, but the giver will insist（坚持）. E．If a woman receives such a gift from her friend or relative, it might be considered strange. F．How funny it is that a man is given some flowers! 四、阅读匹配（共5小题，每小题1分，满分5分） 下面的材料A—F分别介绍了深圳的本地6个趣味节日，请根据Karen、Allen、Landy、Rachel和Jim的需求为他们推荐最合适的节日。 31 .
