  请根据下面的短文回答{TSE}题:

  People thank their parents with two days: Mother' s Day, on the second Sunday in May, and Father' s Day, on the third Sunday in June. These days are to show love for parents. They raise their children and educate them to be good people. They give them love and care.

  The two days are celebrated(庆祝)in many different ways.On Mother’s Day,people wear carnations.Wearing a red one means having a living mother, while a white one shows that the mother is dead. It' s also a day when people whose parents are dead visit the cemetery. On these days families get together at homes as well as in restau-rants.They often have outdoor barbecues(烧烤聚会)for Father’s Day.These are days of fun and good feelings.

  Another tradition(传统)is to give cards and gifts.Children make them in school.Many people make their own presents.These are more valued(宝贵的)than those bought in shops.It ’s not the value of the gift that is important, but the love for the parents. Card shops, florists, candy makers, phone companies and other shops do lots of business during these holidays.

  1.Which is not a reason for children to show love for parents?

  A.Parents love and take care of children.

  B.Parents pass away before children grow up.

  C.Parents give education to children.

  参考答案:B

  参考解析:题干意为“哪一个不是儿女表示对父母爱的原因?”从文章第一段最后两句“They raise their children and educate them to be good people.They give them love and care.”可以找到选项A和C。而选项B的意思是“父母在儿女长大之前就去世了”这个不是理由。

  2.What do you know about "carnation" ?

  A.It only has two kinds of colors.

  B.It refers to the clothes people wear on Mother' s Day.

  C.It' s a kind of flower showing love and best wishes.

  参考答案:C

  参考解析:C【解析】题目是要我们推测“carnation”的含义。从文章第二段“0n Mother's Day, people wear carnations. Wearing a red one means having a living mother, while a white one shows that the mother is dead.”可以看出来carnation应该是一种花,而且是在母亲节佩戴表示特殊意义的花。选项A文章没有提到它就只有两种颜色。由此可以见,本题的正确答案应为C。

  3.On Mother' s Day and Father' s Day __

  A.people usually have family parties

  B.everyone goes to the cemetery

  C.children always go to parents' home

  参考答案:A

  参考解析:采用排除法逐一看选项。文章中提到“On these days families get together at homes…”可以看出在这些节日经常举行家庭聚会,文章中只提到父母死了的儿女才会去公墓,选项B是错误的,选项C文章没有谈到。

  4.what do you think "florists" do?

  A.They sell flowers.

  B.They make bread.

  C.They sell clothes for Mother' s Day and Father' s Day.

  参考答案:A

  参考解析:题目要我们推测flofists是干什么的。通过词语的构词形式我们很容易想到flower这个词语。而且,文章之前已经提到了母亲节需要戴花,而这个节日里能够做很多生意的当然也是少不了花店。由此可以见.本题的正确答案应为A。

  5.What can we learn from the passage?

  A.Both festivals are in May.

  B.Hand-made gifts are more valuable.

  C.Not all the children love their parents.

  参考答案:B

   参考解析:采用排除法逐一看选项。文章中第一段提到母亲节是在五月,而父亲节是在六月,选项A是错误的。再来看选项B,文章中第三段提到“These ale more valued(宝贵的)than those bought in shops.”因此是正确的。选项C文章没有提到。

  参考译文

  人们以两个特殊的日子向父母表示感谢:每年五月第二个星期日的母亲节和六月第三个星期日的父亲节。这两天是儿女向父母表达爱心的日子。父母把孩子们抚养长大,教育他们,关心和爱护他们。

  人们用各种形式来庆祝这两个日子。在母亲节的时候,人们佩戴康乃馨。红色康乃馨表示母亲还健在,白色的表示母亲已经去世。这一天,很多人也会去公墓怀念逝世的父母。在这两天,家家都会聚在家中或是餐馆。人们也常常在父亲节的时候举行户外烧烤聚会。这是充满欢乐和美好情感的日子。

  另一个传统是赠送卡片和礼物。孩子们在学校制作,很多大人也会自制礼物。这些亲手做的礼物比在商店买的更有价值,因为对父母的爱使得这些礼物变得贵重。卡片店、花店、糖果店、电话公司还有很多其他的商店都会在这些节日大做生意。
