    The Chong Yang Festival has a history of over 2,000 years. It comes on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month, so it is called the Double Ninth Festival.
    There are many kinds of activities on the Chong Yang Festival. It is a time when it's getting cold, so Chinese people make the festival a time for sending winter clothes for the dead family members. Because autumn has a clear sky and fresh air, it is a very good time to climb a mountain. Climbing a mountain has been the tradition of the Chong Yang Festival since the Western Han Dynasty. Also, it is good for our health. On the Chong Yang Festival, people also eat Chong Yang cakes, enjoy chrysanthemum(菊花) flowers, and drink chrysanthemum wine.
    Today, the Chong Yang Festival has got its new meaning—a day for showing respect to the old. On the festival day, people show their respect, care and love to old people, and they also do lots of things to help the old. Many parks, communities and organizations plan the activities for old people, such as an autumn trip, singing songs or sending presents to them. We hope the old are happy and stay healthy by taking part in these activities. Many young people accompany(陪伴) the old on outings, or make some delicious food for them.
8. The Chong Yang Festival has a history of ______.
A. about one month B. about nine months
C. over 3,000 years D. over 2,000 years
9. Which of the following do people do on the Chong Yang Festival?
A. Make wine. B. Plant flowers.
C. Send clothes to the poor. D. Eat Chong Yang cakes.
10. Why do people climb a mountain on the Chong Yang Festival?
A. Because it is a way to remember the dead.
B. Because it's a time when the weather is getting cold.
C. Because it's a good time to climb a mountain.
D. Because it is a tradition from the Western Han Dynasty.
11. What is the new meaning of the Chong Yang Festival?
A. To go outing.
B. To show respect to the old.
C. To plan activities for young people.
D. To eat delicious food.
D
We try to give our children so much but sometimes forget to give them the greatest gift,the ability to feel grateful. Without that, we can never give them enough. Gratitude can be expressed for anything- -the sight of beautiful clouds, our warm home, or a nice meal.
Many of our parents tried to make us feel grateful by pointing out the hungry children in some faraway land. This often resulted in us offering to send those children the unpleasant clothes or ugly tennis shoes. Just have a look around us, we know how this happened. All around are material things that they （and we） are led to believe we must have- -that we have a right to have.
The most important is simply being an example of being grateful for the things in our own lives. In my work as a school psychologist, a mother with a 9-year-old came to see me for help. We worked out a way to teach him to feel gratitude- but not to say how fortunate he was. She started by talking about what had gone on in her day that she was grateful for： a friend who praised her work or the quiet evening without too much washing. Then she asked him if anything good happened in his day. He got the idea, shared a few things, and it soon became a habit.
So along with all the things on the wish lists, we can add another one： gratitude. It might even help to start by letting our kids know that, regardless of their appearance, their scores, or their abilities, they are source of gratitude in our lives.
12. According to the author, gratitude ______ .
A. may come from everyday life
B. should come first on the wish lists
C. is more important than children's scores
D. must be taught by teachers in school
13. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about？ ______
A. The situation of children in poor areas.
B. The skill of choosing and sending gifts.
C. The difference between right and wrong.
D. The reason for children's feeling ungrateful.
14. The story of the 9-year-old boy is mainly to show that parents should ______ .
A. teach their children to forget bad things in life
B. set an example to children to feel grateful
C. tell their children how lucky they are
D. praise their children quite often
15. In which part of a website can we probably find the text？ ______
A. News. B. Jobs. C. Family. D. Arts.

详解：
1.考查时态。句意：昨天我收到你的来信了。根据时间状语yesterday可知，句子应用一般过去时态，故去掉have。
2.考查人称代词。句意：不要担心我。结合句意和下文I'm getting along well with my research works in the lab可知，此处代指作者，故应用me表示"我"。故you改成me。
3.考查不可数名词。句意：我实验室的研究工作进展很好。结合句意可知，work在这里意为"工作"，是不可数名词。故works改成work。
4.考查固定短语。句意：但是，让我惊讶的是，你说你会放弃学习英语。to one's surprise是固定短语，意为"让某人惊讶的是"。故surprising改成surprise。
5.考查动名词。句意：但是，让我惊讶的是，你说你会放弃学习英语。give up后应用动名词作宾语，即give up doing sth."放弃做某事"。故learn改成learning。
6.考查时态及主谓一致。句意：原因是你最近做得不好，失去了兴趣。根据语境可知，此处是在陈述现在的状况，应用一般现在时，主语the reason是单数形式，be动词应用is。故are改成is。
7.考查连词。句意：我知道学习英语并不容易，但英语在当今世界上被广泛使用，它将是你未来工作的重要工具。根据句意可知，上下文之间是转折关系，应用转折连词but。故and改成but。
8.考查冠词。句意：我知道学习英语并不容易，但英语在当今世界上被广泛使用，它将是你未来工作的重要工具。tool"工具"是可数名词，结合句意可知，此处泛指"一种工具"，应用不定冠词，且important是发音以元音音素开头的单词，应用不定冠词an。故在important前加an。
9.考查介词。句意：此外，它在我们的日常生活中变得越来越重要。in one's daily life"在某人的日常生活中"，固定搭配。故at改成in。
10.考查副词。句意：如果你努力学习，你将会成功。根据句意可知，此处表示努力学习，应用副词hard"努力地"，hardly意为"几乎不"，不符合题意。故hardly改成hard。
