1、The fourth Thursday in November is called Thanksgiving Day. In the United States, it is an annual occasion to show thanks to God for his goodness.
As a historical, national and religious holiday, Thanksgiving Day began with the English in Plymouth Colony. As far back as 1621, after a long bitter winter and the gathering of the first harvest, these early settlers shared a feast with the local Indians and offered prayers of thanksgiving. The first national Thanksgiving Day was proclaimed（颁布） by President Washington on November 26, 1789. President Lincoln revived the custom in 1863.
It was not until 1941 that the U.S. Congress adopted a resolution（决定）, setting the fourth Thursday of November as an annual Thanksgiving Day. Thus what began as a religious celebration of the harvest has since become a nationwide holiday.
Now Thanksgiving Day is usually a family day, celebrated with a traditional turkey dinner and a happy reunion. Schools are closed on Thanksgiving Day and the day after. Many people, including students studying in another state, often travel long distances to spend the holiday at home. (1)、The passage is mainly about how Thanksgiving Day came into being.

(4)、Since 1863, the fourth Thursday of November has been set as an annual Thanksgiving Day, a nationwide holiday. A：T B：F 答案： B

2、How men first learnt to invent words is unknown; in other words, the origin of language is a mystery. All we really know is that men, unlike animals, somehow invented certain sounds to express thought and feelings, actions and things, so that they could communicate with each other; and that later they agreed upon certain signs, called letters, which could be combined to present those sounds, and which could be written down. Those sounds, whether spoken or written in letters, we call words.
The power of words, then, lies in their associations - the things they bring up before our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience; and the longer we live, the more certain words recall to us the glad and sad events of our past; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something increases.
Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which appeal powerfully to our minds and emotions. This charming and telling use of words is what we call literary style. Above all, the real poet is a master of words. He can convey his meaning in words which sing like music and which by their position and association can move men to tears. We should therefore learn to choose our words carefully and use them accurately, or they will make our speech silly and vulgar.
(1)、The origin of language is _________. A：a legend handed down from the past B：a matter that is hidden or secret C：a question difficult to answer D：a problem not yet solved 答案： D
(2)、What is true about words? _______ A：They are used to express feelings only. B：They can not be written down. C：They are simply sounds. D：They are mysterious. 答案： C
(3)、The real power of words consists in their ______. A：properties B：characteristics C：peculiarity
D：representative function 答案： D
(4)、By \ A：a special quality
B： a joining of ideas in the mind C：an appearance which is puzzling D：a strange feature 答案： B
(5)、Which of the following statements about the real poet is NOT true? _________ A：He is no more than a master of words.
B：He can convey his ideas in words which sing like music. C：He can move men to tears. D：His style is always charming. 答案： A
