答案
小题1:who
小题2:a
小题3:hid
小题4:Another
小题5:it
小题6:saying
小题7:will be
小题8:strength
小题9:great
小题10:Under
解析
小题1:who 考查关系词。先行词是the rich man 在定语从句在做主语,关系词用who。
小题2:a 考查冠词。第一次提到stone,表泛指用不定冠词a。
小题3:hid 考查时态。讲述的该故事用过去时态,所以用hid。
小题4:Another 考查代词。下文提到两次another表示“另一个,又一个”。
小题5:it 考查代词。代指前面的the stone,所以用人称代词it做宾语。
小题6:saying 考查非谓语动词。say与he之间是主动关系,所以用saying。say to oneself“自言自语”。
小题7:will be 考查时态。即将黑天,所以用将来时态。下文句子用了两次将来时态。
小题8:strength 考查名词。前面是物主代词,所以用名词strength。
小题9:great 考查形容词。was后面缺表语用形容词great。
小题10:Under 考查介词。短语under the stone “在石头下面”。注意大写。

Brain Drain
Imagine you are sitting in your living room and out of surprise you get a call from a friend.He tells you that he"s gotten the student visa and is going to study abroad for higher education.His parents may feel it a privilege that their son is guaranteed to have a bright future and unbelievable job opportunities.小题1:While many people believe that immigration is a personal choice that must be understood and respected, others have realized a serious problem-brain drain.Brain drain refers to the flow of highly skilled and educated people, such as doctors, engineers, scientists from less developed countries to developed countries.

A.comprehension | B.contribution |
C.commitment | D.consideration |

小题1:_________________
Thanksgiving Day has been associated with communal prayers in church and in homes for centuries. Attending church services in the morning is the first step of many celebrators on Thanksgiving Day. The churches provide worship services and organize special events for the occasion. Before Thanksgiving meals, some families gather together and thank God for his kindness and the gifts he has bestowed upon them in the form of friends and family. Some people also do voluntary community work on this day, as a way of contribution.
小题2:_________________
Like China’s Spring Festival, preparing a big meal and bringing the family together at home is a long-standing tradition of Thanksgiving. Distances don’t really matter as relatives return home to be with their family, no matter how far away.
Undoubtedly, turkey is the main course of Thanksgiving dinner. Though there is no evidence to prove that turkey was eaten during the first Thanksgiving dinner, most agree that the dinner would be incomplete without it. Other dishes typically found on dinner tables in almost every house are pumpkin pies, corn, fall vegetables, olives, cranberry sauce, stuffing and mashed potatoes. At the meal, many families observe the ritual of taking turns to express what each member is thankful for.
小题3:_________________
While feasts make Thanksgiving a festival for individual families, parades make it a carnival for the whole nation. Various parades are held in many cities to honor Thanksgiving. One of the largest is New York’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, which is currently called Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. Started in 1924, more than 2 million people attend the parade every year.
Important features of the parade are themed floats, scenes from Broadway plays, large balloons of cartoon characters and TV personalities, and high school marching bands. The parade traditionally ends with a Santa Claus float, which marks the unofficial beginning of the Christmas season.
小题4: __________________
After-dinner rituals are just as important as the meal itself, and no after-dinner ritual is more important than the football game. The US’ National Football League has played a special game on Thanksgiving every year since its creation in 1920 (with the exception of 1939-1944 due to World War II). It’s referred to as the Thanksgiving Classic, and thousands of fans watch it with popcorn and chips in hand, either in stadiums or on television.
In 1863, a reporter jokingly said, “Thanksgiving is a holiday granted by the Nation to see a game of football.” It’s absolutely true.
小题5:_________________
While Chinese citizens enjoy an online shopping spree on Nov 11, Americans flock to physical stores just after Thanksgiving. The Friday after Thanksgiving Day is famously known as “Black Friday” because of the standard accounting practice of writing profits in black.
Many employers give their employees the day off as part of the Thanksgiving holiday weekend, so retailers seize the opportunity to offer discounts and put items on sale. Hundreds of thousands of people take advantage of the opportunity to hunt for bargains. The sight of people waiting in long lines for shops to open on the morning after Thanksgiving Day is quite normal.
