And in China, the Spring Festival, which _7_ (celebrate) in January or February, is the most _8_ (energy) and important because it is a festival that looks forward _9_ the ing of spring. Why are there all these festivals? Because during the festivals, people can get together to eat, drink and have fun with each other, _10_ (forget) all the daily struggle and demands for a while.1festivals考查名词。名词festival为可数名词，又有空前的are可知要用其复数形式。2to express考查非谓语动词。根据前面的to satisfy and please和to honor可知，这里为并列成分，故用不定式形式。故填to express。3them考查代词。空处作bringing的宾语，故填人称代词的宾格them。4when考查定语从句。句中先行词为earlyNovember，在非限定性定语从句中作时间状语，故用关系副词when。5a考查冠词。名词festival为可数名词，且用的是单数形式，故前需加不定冠词a。6independent考查形容词。根据句中逻辑和意思可知，用independent，表示“独立的”。7is celebrated考查动词时态和语态。句中逻辑主语为the Spring Festival，与动词celebrate之间为被动关系，故用被动语态。此处叙述的是客观情况，故填is celebrated。8energetic考查形容词。根据前面最高级the most可知，后接形容词形式作表语。故填energetic。9to考查介词。look forward to “期望”，为固定搭配。10forgetting考查非谓语动词。空处与前面句子没有连词连接，故判断用非谓语动词形式，逻辑主语people与forget之间为主动关系，故用现在分词作状语。故填forgetting。练(二)第四部分写作增分专练练规范(限时：40分钟).应用文写作假如你是李华，你班交换生Amy这两天因身体不适，未能到校上课，请给她写一封邮件，要点如下：1表示安慰；2询问她是否能参加下周六学校举行的足球比赛；3邀请她下个月到你家共度端午节。注意：1.词数80左右；2可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 参考范文：Dear Amy，I am so sorry to learn that you suddenly fell ill.Hopefully youll soon be all right.As scheduled, our football match will take place next Saturday.I would greatly appreciate it if you could take part in it by then.By the way, our traditional Dragon Boat Festival is ing next month.My family and I are all expecting your ing to enjoy the authentic festive atmosphere with us.Dont hesitate to tell me if you could e.Looking forward to hearing from you.Yours，Li Hua.读后续写阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。Afternoon was Mrs. Conroys favorite time of day.

I told you, youre at the end of the line.

Is it a oneway ride？” It seemed she could not find the_way_home.Paragraph 2：Suddenly the afternoon sun seemed surprisingly bright. A tall, handsome man in a blue suit appeared. He smiled and came up to her, saying it was time for her to go. She couldnt understand and still plained about the driver and the unreasonable rules,_saying that she was just having a sleep and then missed Essex_Avenue. But the man explained that he was the drivers friend, and that they couldnt break the rules, but the driver asked him to help her back in his own car.
