Question

An evergreen tree is a Christmas tradition in many American homes. The tree is usually a pine or fir（冷杉） dressed with lights and other colorful decorations.
Families might buy a cut tree or go to a tree farm and cut one down themselves. Some people bring a live tree in a pot into their home for the holidays and then put it back outdoors. Some people rent a Christmas tree. Companies might bring the same live tree to the same family year after year. Or the tree might get planted in a park or someplace else where it could help the environment.
There are some trees that can be reused year after year because they are made of plastic or metal. Or, instead of a tree, some people have a small, sweet-smelling rosemary（迷迭香） plant, cut to look like a little Christmas tree.
Another popular evergreen this time of year is the mistletoe（槲寄生） plant. It has small white berries and leaves that feel like leather. The traditional Christmas mistletoe is native to Europe. Ancient Druids believed mistletoe had magical powers. Mistletoe is a parasitic（寄生的） plant. It connects itself to a tree and steals nutrients and water.
And the poinsettia（一品红）is also one of the plants that many people connect with Christmas. Poinsettias __________   Mexico. They can be white or pink, but most are bright red. They are named after the first American ambassador to Mexico. Joel Poinsett liked them enough to send some back to the United States. Babies or pets that chew on poinsettias might get sick. But experts say the plant is not as poisonous as some people think.

试题分析：本文讲的是美国人使用的圣诞树。大多数用的是四季常青的松树和冷杉。但也有用塑料做的消掉，有香味的迷迭香，或槲寄生、一品红。颜色出来绿色外，还有粉色、红色或白色的。
小题1:What can be used as Christmas Tree? 主旨大意题。根据第一句An evergreen tree is a Christmas tradition in many American homes.在许多美国家庭中，圣诞节有一棵常青树是传统，接下来就一直讲各种各样可用来做圣诞树的那些树。
小题2:Pink ,red, green, or white(任选三项)细节题。根据第一句An evergreen tree is a Christmas tradition in many American homes和最后一段They can be white or pink, but most are bright red.，可知圣诞树一般是绿色，但也可用粉色、白色或者红色。
小题3:are native to/ come from/ are from。填空题。前面是Poinsettias后面是一个单词Mexico要表达的意思就是一品红来做墨西哥。
小题4:Pine, fir, rosemary, mistletoe,推理判断题。根据第一段，知道pine和fir可以用做圣诞树，根据第三段知道rosemary可用，根据第四段知道mistletoe可用，根据第五段知道可用poinsettia
小题5:The live tree。代词指代的问题。Some people bring a live tree in a pot into their home for the holidays and then put it back outdoors有些人为了过节把一棵活树移到家里的罐子里，然后又把它种回到外面去。it应该是指前半句的a live tree
