It’s as good as the white one, but…”可知，此处是两者进行比较，应用形容词的比较级。说话者选择了红色的毛衣，且指出它与白色的一样好。在质量相同的情况下，促使人做出选择的原因通常是价格更优惠，即“更便宜”，逻辑上更合理。故选B。 26.

A. strict with B. different from C. friendly to D. talented in 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：许多人认为这个年轻女孩谷爱凌在滑雪方面是有天赋的，但我认为她成功是因为她的努力。 考查形容词短语辨析。strict with对……严格；different from与……不同；friendly to对……友好；talented in在……方面有天赋。根据“Many people think that the young girl Gu Ailing is...skiing, but I think she is successful because of her hard work.”可知，前半句与后半句形成对比（后半句强调“努力”），因此挖空处应表示“天赋”含义。故选D。 27. —What should he do if he ________ to school late tomorrow morning? —I think he should say sorry to the teacher.

People all over the world enjoy this surprising fruit. Not all tomatoes are red. They can be yellow, orange, pink or white. All tomatoes are green before they are ready to be picked. Then the tomatoes turn their true colors. That’s when they are ready to be eaten! Tomatoes first grew in the Americas. The Incas (印加人) grew them over 1,000 years ago. The Spanish introduced (介绍) them to Europe in the early 16th century. The Spanish and Italians seem to be the first Europeans to eat them. In France, people grew tomatoes in gardens just to enjoy their beauty. Many people there thought tomatoes would make them sick. It was years before some of them would eat tomatoes. Tomatoes are fruits. They grow from seeds (种子). They won’t grow in cold weather. But with water, sunshine and warmth, tomatoes grow fast. They can grow in pots or in the ground. As the plant grows taller, people may tie (捆) them to a stick (棍). Next is the blooming stage (开花阶段). After flowers come out, they will slowly turn into fruit. People can pick some kinds of tomatoes in about six more weeks. You can eat raw (生的) tomatoes. First wash them. Then cut them up for salads or sandwiches. We can cook tomatoes, too. Tomatoes don’t have a smell. But they taste great in foods around the world. Many dishes from India use tomatoes. Pizzas from Italy use them, too. 62.

It means “say goodbye to the old year and welcome the new year”. ◎ Give lucky money to children People give lucky money to children on the Spring Festival. The money is also called ya sui qian, meaning “to ward off evil spirits/bad luck and keep children safe”. People wish children to keep away from danger and bring them peace, good luck and happiness in the coming year. ◎ Have a big family dinner A big family dinner is necessary during the Spring Festival. Dumplings are the most traditional dish. Fish is always an important dish, which expresses people’s hope of having a wealthy year. People also like eating tofu, meaning duo fu. ◎ Watch CCTV Spring Festival Gala (春晚) It is also a special way to celebrate the Spring Festival. And it has become an important part of the Chinese Lunar New Year. Now the Spring Festival has become a festival celebrated worldwide. It carries forward Chinese peace and harmony (和谐) to the world.
