本文为说明文，介绍了美国的两个节日——母亲节和父亲节的相关知识。

3．A 第二段中“On the days families get together at home，as well as in restaurants.”暗示了本题的答案。

B
The American tradition of Thanksgiving dates back to colonial times，to the Pilgrims(清教徒) of Plymouth Rock Colony.To escape religious percution(迫害) in England，the Pilgrims journeyed to the New W orld on their ship，the May-flower.After
a long journey，they finally arrived at Plymouth Rock in autumn of 1620.They could
not finish building the ttlement before winter，so many froze to death.They ate
most of their food on the journey over，so many also starved.However，the Pilgrims met a Native American named T isquantum，or Squanto as he was better known，who taught them how to plant corn and catch eel(鳗鱼)．By the same time next year，the Pilgrims had built a steady ttlement，and had a bountiful harvest.To thank the Native
Americans for their help and to celebrate the harvest，the Pilgrims held a grand banquet(盛宴)．Tog
ether，they feasted on corn，yams，fish，and most importantly：roast turkey，which became the highlight of the modern Thanksgiving feast.
卤猪蹄Schools always make a big deal about Thanksgiving，becau they feel that it teaches children how to be thankful and to treat others with kindness.I spent the
many years of elementary school making paper turkeys，fake cornucopias(a shell filled with food，a symbol of the holiday)，and writing lists of what I'm thankful for.When I grew older，I watched movies and read books about the First Thanksgiving，and completed crossword puzzles and word arches filled with holiday themed words.While the idea for Thanksgiving is great，and it is a wonderful opportunity to instill
certain values in children，I don't think we should name a special holiday for being thankful.We should be thankful for what we have every day，not just Thanksgiving.
1．What's the main reason for the English Pilgrims to leave their home c ountry?
A．Political ideas. B．Religious beliefs.
C．Hard life. D．Hopes for fortune.
2．Why did the Pilgrims hold a banquet one year after their arrival in the new
world?
A．To memorize their family members left in England.
B．To celebrate their survival from religious percution.
C．To thank the Native Americans for their help.
D．To celebrate the new state they've t up.

Every animal sleeps, but the reason for this has remained foggy. When lab
rats are not allowed to sleep, they die within a month.__1__
One idea is that sleep helps us strengthen new memories.__2__ We k now that, while awake, fresh memories are recorded by reinforcing (加强) connections between brain cells, but the memory p rocess that take place while we sleep have been unclear.
Support is growing for a theory that sleep evolved so that connections
between neurons (神经元)in the brain can be weakened overnight, making room for fresh memories to form the next day. __3__
Now we have the most direct evidence yet that he is fight. __4__The synaps in the mice taken at the end of a period of sleep were 18 percent smaller than tho taken before sleep, showing that the connections between neurons weaken while sleeping.
If Tononi's theory is right, it would explain why, when we miss a night's
sleep, we find it harder the next day to concentrate and learn new information—our brains may have smaller room for new experiences.
钓鱼记Their rearch also suggests how we may build lasting memories over time
even though the synaps become thinner. The team discovered that some synaps em to be protected and stayed the same s ize.__5__ “You keep what matters，” Tononi says.

learning.
F．“Sleep is the price we pay for learning，” says Giulio Tononi, who developed the idea.
G．Tononi's team measured the size of the connections, or synaps, in the brains of 12 mice.
答案与解析
这是一篇说明文。文中主要探讨了充足的睡眠帮助人们巩固新记忆，为第二天的全新记
忆腾出空间。
1．C 考查前后句的连贯。所有的动物都睡觉，但其原因仍然是谜。当实验室的老鼠不
被允许睡觉时，它们一个月内就死了。同样，人类如果连续几天不睡觉，就会生病。所以C 项正确。
2．E 考查前后句的连贯。第二段首句指出一个观点，即睡眠帮助人们巩固新的记忆。
而E项则支持该观点，其中That指代的就是睡眠帮助巩固新的记忆这一观点。所以E项正确。
3．F 考查前后句的连贯。空前讲，睡眠会为第二天的新记忆腾出空间，且由第四段第
一句中的人称代词he可知，F项正确。
4．G 考查前后句的连贯。空前讲，有最直接的证据证明Tononi的观点是对的，而空后的内容介绍了实验结果，故可推知空处应是介绍了Tononi做的相关实验，故G项正确。
5．B 考查前后句的连贯。根据空前的关键词protected，stayed以及空后的keep，matters可知，B项正确
