    试题分析：这篇短文讲述的是中国的一个传统的节日—龙抬头。它在农历的二月初二，在这一天有很多古老的习俗，如把路上的灰带到厨房和水缸的周围、吃面条和饺子等。在这一天，你还会看到很多人会理发，因为在农历一月理发是不吉利的。
    小题1:考查数词及语境的理解。句意：龙抬头是中国的一个传统的节日，它在农历二月的第二天。first 第一；second 第二；third 第三；fourth第四。根据常识我们可以知道，龙抬头是二月初二，即是农历二月的第二天。故选B。
    小题2:考查介词及语境的理解。句意：在2014年，它是在三月二日。in 常用在年代、月份的前面，或指在上午、下午或晚上；at 用在具体时刻的前面；during 在……期间；on常用在具体某一天的前面。因为这里是三月二日，是具体的一个日期，故用on，选D。
    小题3:考查动词及语境的理解。句意：古代的时候，在这一天，人们会把路上的灰带到厨房或水缸的周围，这是为了把龙引到家里来。lead 带领，指引。根据句意可知，人们把灰带到厨房和水缸周围是为了把龙引到家里来，表示目的，所以用动词不定式，选C。
    小题4:考查动词及语境的理解。句意：这一天所有的食物都以龙来命名。name 和call在这里都有命名，叫做……的意思，根据句意可知，这一天吃的食物都被用龙来名词，即这里表示被动的意思，故选A，这是一个过去分词的形式，和空前面的are一起构成被动语态。
    小题5:考查名词及语境的理解。句意：例如，人们吃的面条叫龙须面，叫做叫龙牙。更加常识可知，在龙抬头这一天，人们经常吃面条和饺子，这里的面条和水饺都应该用复数形式。故选C。
    小题6:考查动词及语境的理解。句意：在中国古代的一些传说中，龙有着呼风唤雨的力量，他们经常在农历二月的第二天给世界带来雨。bring 带来；take 拿走；carry 携带，搬运；lend 借给。根据句意可知，龙可以把雨带到这个世界上来。故应该选A。
    小题7:考查连词及语境的理解。句意：据说在那天之后，就会有越来越多的雨，这就是这一天为什么被叫做春龙节的原因。because 因为，表示原因；why 为什么，引导的从句表示结果；when 什么时候；that可以引导表语从句，但是在从句中不做成分。根据句意可知选B。
    小题8:考查介词及语境的理解。句意：人们希望在龙的帮助下，耕种会更容易，到秋天会有一个好收成。under 在……下面；in 在……里面；with 和……一起，带有；by 通过某种方式。这里是固定的短语with the help of在……的帮助下。故选C。
    小题9:考查形容词及语境的理解。句意：据说在农历一月理发会给家里的舅舅带来坏运气。good 好的；bad 坏的；better 更好的；worst最差的。根据句意可知，这里没有比较的意思，故排除C和D；根据下句话的意思可知，在龙抬头这一天，人们会理发，所以在农历的一月理发是不好的，会给舅舅带来坏运气。故选B
    小题10:考查动词及语境的理解。句意：这就是为什么在龙抬头这一天你会看见这么多人在理发。get their hair cut，是一个固定的短语，意思是理发。根据句意可知，这里表示在龙抬头这一天，人们会看见很多人正在理发，故用现在分词表示动作正在进行。故选D。

    Naturally, American schoolchildren love holidays. And they get a lot of them each year.
    Besides having national holidays such as Thanksgiving and Presidents’ Day off from school, students get longer breaks in the spring and during the summer holidays .In fact, kids in US only go to school for about 180 days a year .To students, holidays are perfect .However, parents think there are advantages and disadvantages.
    On the one hand, school holidays allow families to spend time together. Many American parents take time off from work during June ,July or August to travel with their children on vacation either in US or a foreign country. On the other hand, schoolchildren get much more time off school than parents get vacation time. This means that parents with young children may have to pay more in babysitting or daycare costs. As well, the long summer holidays mean that students sometimes get bored .
    Besides going on trips with their parents, American students enjoy taking part in different kinds of activities during the holidays. For example, some kids enjoy summer camps and outdoor adventure(冒险) holidays. Such trips are great for adventurous students. They also have a lot to offer students who aren’t usually interested in traditional PE activities. You can do courses in survival(生存) skills, for example. Students learn how to make a camp in the forest, which wild food they can eat and how to find their way back to the center.
    Students who are not excited about summer camps and outdoor adventure may take part in courses in computer game design, filmmaking and photography during the holidays. Finally, the traditional school trip to foreign countries is always popular. Students can practice their foreign language skills and experience everyday life in a different culture.
    小题1:How long are kids in the US at school every year?
    A．About 180 days .B．About 280 days .
    C．About 200 days .D．About 300 days .

    In most languages, a greeting is usually followed by "small talk". Small talk means the little things we talk about at the start of a conversation. In English-speaking countries people often make small talk about the weather: "Nice day, isn't it?" "Terrible weather, isn't it?" But there is something special about small talk. It must be about something which both people have the same opinion about. The purpose of small. talk is to let both people agree on something. This makes meeting people easier and more comfortable. People usually agree about the weather, so it is a safe topic for small talk. But people often disagree about religion or politics so these are not suitable topics for small talk in English. The topics for small talk also depend on where the conversation is taking place. At football matches, people make small talk about the game they are watching: "Great game, isn't it?" At bus-stops, people may comment about the transport system: "The bus service is terrible, isn't it?"
    Greetings and small talk are an important part of conversation in any language. The way people greet each other and the things they talk about, however, may be different from one language to another. This shows that there is much more to learn when we learn a language than just the vocabulary and the grammar of the language. We also have to learn the social behavior of the people who speak it.
    小题1:The passage suggests that when we learn a language______.
    A．we should know the culture about the country
    B．we should only master the grammar and vocabulary
    C．we should grasp the importance of the language
    D．we should learn about the transport system of the country
    小题2: When we say "Great game, isn't it?" we in fact______.
    A．have a conversationB．begin a small talk
    C．greet each otherD．ask a question
    小题3: What we learn from the passage is that______.
    A．in English-speaking countries we should talk about the weather
    B．different language has different grammar
    C．small talk is an important part in a language
    D．small talk depends on the purpose of the conversation

    There is a saying, “China has the best teahouses in the world and Chengdu has the best teahouses in China.”Chengdu has not only many teahouses but also the special ways of serving and drinking tea.
    As soon as the visitors enter the teahouses, the waiters or waitresses will greet them with teapots and cups in their hands. The cups often have special covers and saucers(茶碟). The covers can keep the water warm.
    People who go to the teahouses are not all thirsty. Retired(退休)people pay a little money to the teahouses and then sit there all day long to chat with others. Sometimes, people have parties in the teahouses. They eat fruit and sunflower seeds(瓜子)while they chat and return home when they are tired. Teahouses are also good places for people to talk about businesses. Some of the teahouses even have stages for performances, such as storytelling, cross talk and Sichuan Opera. Sometimes when people have a quarrel, a mediator(调解员)will bring them to the teahouse. After their problem is solved, the person who is wrong will pay for the tea. It is interesting that as soon as the quarrelers enter the teahouse and sit down to drink tea, they have almost calmed down. With the help of the mediator, their problems can be easily solved then. Maybe we can say the teahouses have some special social functions.
