CFathers Day in the USA is celebrated on the third Sunday of June. On this day people honor their father and express thanks for his love and care. As a Fathers Day tradition, people in the USA also show respect to their grandfather, stepfather, uncle or any other men who are like father. History of Fathers Day in the USA Fathers Day as we celebrate today es from the United States of America. The idea of observing a day in honor of the father was put forward by Ms. Sonora Smart Dodd, a loving daughter from Spokane. It so happened that Sonora attended a Mothers Day sermon（布道）in 1909 and she was struck with the idea that society must observe a day to honor the important contribution made by the father in the raising of children. Encouraged by the love of her father, William Smart, who was once a soldier in the Civil War and single-handedly raised her along with her five brothers after the death of her mother, Sonora worked hard to make her idea a reality. The idea of celebrating Fathers Day soon spread across the nation. Fathers Day was recognized by a Joint Resolution of Congress in 1956. Finally, in 1972 President Nixon established（确定）Fathers Day as a national day on the third Sunday of June.Fathers Day Celebrations in the USAFathers Day celebrations in the USA take place with lots of fun and excitement. The day is also thought of a time for family reunions in families, children who are staying away from families take time out to celebrate the day with their father. Indulging（让享受一下）daddy with breakfast in bed and gifts like cards, flowers, chocolates and ties is the traditional way of celebrating Fathers Day in the USA.Fathers Day is being more and more popular and it encourages children to honor their father. 28The underlined word “observing” in the second paragraph means “ ”.AsupposingBagreeingCchoosingDcelebrating29What can we learn about Sonora from the passage?AShe suggested a date for Fathers Day to the government.BShe was the youngest child in the family.CShe missed her mother very much when she grew up. DShe put forward the idea of observing Fathers Day.30Which of the following is the least important on Fathers Day?ATo express thanks to fathers in the raising of children.BTo let children have an exciting festival.CTo teach children to respect their father.DTo have a time for family reunion.31What would be the best title for the passage?AMs. Sonora Smart DoddBWhy to celebrate Fathers DayCFathers Day in the USADHow to celebrate Fathers DayDOver the years, Brian Wansink, director of the Food and Brand Lab at Cornell University, has studied such things as how far Americans typically drive to buy food, how many times we refill our plates at all-you-can-eat buffets and how we organize our kitchens. In the mid-xxs he famously coined the phrase “mindless eating”（and wrote a book by that name）to focus attention on all the bad dietary decisions we make without really thinking about them.His new book, Slim by Design: Mindless Eating Solutions for Everyday Life, aims to change the design of restaurants, school lunchrooms, office cafeterias and homes so that the mindless choices we make will be more healthful ones. Some examples:Keep kitchen counters clear. No visible snack food, no bread, no nutsnot even breakfast cereal. In Wansinks research, “women who had even one box of breakfast cereal that was visibleanywhere in their kitchenweighed 21 pounds more than their neighbor who didnt.”Trick yourself into drinking less wine. “We tend to focus on the height of what we pour and not the width, so we pour 12 percent less wine into taller wineglasses than we pour into wider wineglasses.” And the shape of the glass is not the only variable that affects how much we drink. Wansink writes: “Because red wine is easier to see than white wine, we pour 9 percent less red wine whenever we pour a glass.”Wansink said his researchers also found that people ate less at restaurants when sat in well-lighted areas near windows and doors, than in darker areas or in the back. They ate less if they were offered a doggie bag, or to-go box, before they got their meals: apparently the idea of getting a “free” second meal outweighed the impulse（冲动）to clean their plates. Fruits and vegetables kept on the top shelf of the refrigerator were eaten at higher rates than those on lower shelves.32Why did Brian Wansink write Slim by Design: Mindless eating Solutions for Everyday Life?ABecause he wanted people to bee thin.BBecause he intended to help people make more healthful dietary decision.CBecause he hoped to coin a new phrase “mindless eating”.DBecause he wished to change the design of dining places.33According to Wansink, which of the following affects the amount of wine we drink .Athe shape of wineglassesBthe color of wineglassesCthe taste of wineDthe quality of wine34The underlined phrase a “doggie bag” in paragraph 5 probably means .Aa bag for carryingBa box for takeaway foodCa bag for carrying dog foodDa container for leftovers35Whats the main idea of the passage?AChanging environment or habits of eating will help you eat less.BEating fruits and vegetables is better for your health.CKeeping your kitchen counter clear of any food will help make you thin.DMany people eat or drink too much without paying attention to it.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Theres nothing worse than sitting next to someone whose breath smells bad.

It had countless calories 44 it was so delicious without being necessarily nutritious. I didnt mind, 45 . I enjoyed every bite and added a few scoops of ice cream 46 . My son, my daughter and I 47 every bit of it. When we were done, our souls were 48 , and dinner was still four hours away. We had followed that wise saying of a 49 existence: “Life is short. Eat 50 first!”I have spent too many years of my life 51 the desserts I was given until everything else was done. Like many people in our society, I thought that 52 came first, duty came second, and joy was somewhere down the 53 . It took me a long time to see the 54 truth that: “We work to live but we live to love.” Without love, without laughter, without joy, without goodness, and without all the simple 55 life can bring, our existence bees a dull and miserable journey. 56 , I finally realized that when you put love first in your life, 57 else tastes so much sweeter.Dont put off the simple 58 that life can bring. Dont put off the beautiful love that you can give. And 59 your love with everyone. You will be amazed at how wonderful 60 will be when you “Live to Love” while you “Work to Live”.41AcutBtaughtCboughtDstored42AsoupBbiteCviewDreply43AsoftBbitterCsweetDcold44AbutBsoCorDand45AinsteadBthoughCthusDtherefore46Aas wellBabove allCin totalDfor fun47AjumpedBsearchedCfinishedDignored 48ArelaxedBclearedCinjuredDsatisfied49AspareBhappyCsadDbalanced50AriceBmedicineCdessertDfruit51Agiving awayBcutting upCleaving outDputting off52AworkBkindnessCmercyDhealth53AlistBwayCtroubleDline54AplexBsimpleCpersonalDhidden55AdisastersBgiftsChobbiesDpleasures56AHoweverBBesidesCThankfullyDSurprisingly57AnothingBsomethingCanythingDeverything 58AchangesBjoysCmistakesDdifferences59AshareBmixCtreatDdiscuss60AjourneyBvolunteerClifeDservice第二节（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分）阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。That Christmas Eve, the streets of Boston were crowded with tourists and locals in various clothes.

Different people have different opinion about it.Some students believe they should eat green food, since the environment isnt pollute in the process of production. Also, it is produced without harm chemicals, making it safe to eat. Therefore, other students think people shouldnt eat green food, since it is many more expensive.
