[Tip] 切忌以细节代替推断 第5题易误选B选项，仔细审读题干的问题并结合文章内容可以看出，B选项只是与题干有关的一个细节，而非问题的正确答案。推理判断题属于深层次理解类试题，考查的是在理解原文字面意义的基础上，通过对语篇逻辑关系的分析和细节的暗示，进行推理、判断的能力。有一些干扰项仅仅是对原文细节的简单复述，而非推断出来的结论，解题时应注意避开此类误区。 答案：1～5　DDCDA (二)阅读表达 1．What do you think of Letters from Father Christmas?

Inside, they would find a handwritten letter from Father Christmas.The letters were also beautifully illustrated — each must have taken its true author, Tolkien, a long time to complete. 赏析：此处作者运用了情态动词来描述自己设想中的种种场景：孩子收到礼物时的心情，他们的发现，托尔金在这些信上所倾注的时间和精力。would在此表示“往往会”，两处must都用来表示一种较为肯定的推测，一方面表达了这些场景都是作者自己的主观猜测，另一方面，也说明了作者对这些场景的真实性很有把握。 (四)赏修辞之功 The letters did, however, change as Tolkien's children got older： ...but if you find that not many of the things you asked for have come, and not perhaps quite as many as sometimes, remember that this Christmas all over the world there are a terrible number of poor and starving people. 赏析：此处在说明随着孩子们年龄的增长，书信的内容也随之变化时，作者直接引用了Tolkien书信中的原句来印证自己的看法，具有很强的说服效果。写作中除了引用原文外，还可以引用诗句、格言、谚语等，来提高文章的说服力，令表达更富启发性。 节日是传统文化的重要组成部分，是人类社会发展的产物。人们为纪念历史事件、传承文化、强化社会凝聚力等设立了不同的节日。不同的国家也有着不同的节日，庆祝本国的传统节日能了解本民族的历史，增加民族认同感，同时能弘扬本民族的优秀文化，培养人们的文化意识，增强社会责任感。 WHY DO WE CELEBRATE FESTIVALS? Festivals are celebrated all around the world. They have a wide range of origins, such as the seasons of the year, religions, famous figures, and important events. Every festival has its different customs and unique charms. However, no matter how different they may seem, all over the world, the spirit of sharing joy, gratitude, love, or peace is common in all festivals. Of all the traditional festivals, the harvest festival can be found in almost every culture. This important agricultural festival takes place after all the crops have been gathered in. People celebrate . In ancient Egypt, the harvest festival was celebrated during the springtime — the Egyptian harvest season.It featured a parade and a great feast with music, dancing, and sports. Today, in some European countries, people decorate town halls with flowers and fruit, and get together to celebrate over a meal. During the Mid-Autumn Festival in China, families gather to admire the shining moon and enjoy delicious mooncakes. Customs play a significant role in festivals, but sometimes they can change over time. With the development of modern society and the spread of new ideas, some traditions may fade away and others may be established. One example is the typical Chinese Spring Festival custom of lighting firecrackers to drive away the evil spirits and celebrate the new year. Nowadays, many big cities have given up this custom in order to avoid air pollution. Another example is Halloween, which slowly Festivals are becoming more and more commercial, with businesses taking advantage of the celebrations. Online shopping websites and social media apps have made it much easier for the public to spend more on gifts for their loved ones. Although some believe festivals should not be commercialised，others believe the increase in spending is good for the economy and public happiness. Festivals are an important part of society. They reflect people's wishes, beliefs, faiths, and attitudes towards life. They are occasions our work for a little while. They help us understand appreciate. And if you study festivals carefully, you may be surprised to find that different cultures actually have a lot in common after all.
