③根据后文“That is why millins f Chinese peple travel lng distances t get hme befre the eve f the Lunar New Year.（这也就是为什么在新年前夕，几百万的中国人会不远万里回到家团聚）”可知，春节对中国来说非常重要，故D项“It reflects hw imprtant family is t Chinese peple arund the wrld（它反映了对于中国人来说，家庭是多么重要）”符合题意，故选D项。
④根据前文“Anther part f this custm f is t pay visits t relatives and bring them gifts.（风俗的另一部分就是去拜访亲戚，并给他们带礼物）”可知，下文应陈述带什么礼物是合乎习俗的。A项“Cmmnly exchanged gifts include fd, wine r tea（通常互送的礼物包括食物、酒和茶）”符合题意，进一步说明是哪些礼物，故选A项。
⑤根据前文对春节风俗喜欢的介绍可知，此空位于文章的最后一段，为总结段，故G项“The Chinese Spring Festival symblizes a farewell t the ld and a welcme t the new（春节象征着辞旧迎新）”符合，且根据后文“It is a special ccasin t return hme and reunite with family members.（它是与家人团聚的重要时刻）”中的it指代的名词“The Chinese Spring Festival”，故选G项。
23．答案：B
解析：由文章首句“I had been weren't many different kinds f fd at dinner.”可知,作者长时间以来一直吃的是典型的中西部餐食,种类单一。结合第六段中的“It'll be gd fr yu t try smething new”可推断此处表示丈夫建议“我”尝试新食物,他觉得“我”应该走出自己的食物舒适区。leave(离开)符合语境,故选B。
24．答案：D
解析：本句中的accepted(接受)提示设空处所在部分表示丈夫“提出”带“我”去附近一家豪华自助餐厅吃饭。有“提出”才会有“接受”,由此可知ffer(主动提出)符合语境,故选D。
25．答案：A
解析：由下文中的“I thught I culdn't g wrng”可推断,“我”应该是欣然接受了丈夫的提议,设空处所填的词应该是积极的、正面的。A.高兴地;B.紧张地;C.害羞地;D.不情愿地。四个选项中只有A项感情色彩符合,故选A。
26．答案：C
解析：由上文的描述可知,“我们”要去附近一家豪华自助餐厅吃饭。再结合本句中的“I thught I culdn't g wrng”可知,此处表示“我”想象着那家餐厅会有许多“我”喜欢吃的食物,故选C(想象)。
27．答案：D
解析：由本空前的“and then”可知,设空处表示的动作紧接着“gave the server ur drink rder”发生。结合下文中的“the ther hungry peple chsing the buffet”和“I turned left, and he went right.”可知,此处表示其他顾客都在选餐,“我们”点完饮料后也加入忙着选餐的饥肠辘辘的顾客的队伍。A.招待;B.理解;C.鼓励;D.加入。故选D。
28．答案：A
解析：由文章首句及第六段中的“It'll be gd fr yu t try smething new”可知,“我”不是一个善于尝试新食物的人。由此可推断,此处表示“我”只拿了盘色拉,上面加了自己平时吃的调料。A.通常的;B.私人的;C.健康的;D.新的。意为“把……放在……的上面”;dressing在此处意为“调料”,usual dressing表示“平时吃的调料”。故选A。
29．答案：B
解析：由下一段中的“I lifted a crab leg”及第六段中的"Cme n. It'll be gd fr yu t try smething new"可推测,此处表示丈夫鼓励“我”品尝一下蟹腿。Have a taste f sth.尝一口/一点儿某物。故选B。
30．答案：D
解析：由下文中的“It smelt strange.”及下一段中的"Cme n. It'll be gd fr yu t try smething new"可知,作者拿起蟹腿但是没有吃。结合选项可推测D项(放弃)符合语境,表示作者拿起蟹腿后闻着味道奇怪就放弃品尝了。故选D。
31．答案：A
解析：由上文可知丈夫鼓励“我”品尝蟹腿,由“It smelt strange.”可知,尽管丈夫鼓励“我”,但“我”还是不想品尝蟹腿。结合下文中的“They were busy with their wn crab legs.”可知,此处表示“我”环顾四周,“希望(hping)”有人来拯救“我”。B.相信;C.意识到;D.答应。
32．答案：C
解析：由下文中的“They were busy with their wn crab legs.”可知“我”环顾四周,想找人帮我,可是其他顾客都在忙着吃自己的蟹腿,没有人“注意到(nticed)” “我”。A.返回;B.拒绝;D.回答。
33．答案：C
解析：由下文中的“I managed t break the the tip f my knife t dig bits f meat ut f the shell.”及“it tasted gd”可知,作者最终品尝了蟹腿。由此可知此处是对作者在品尝蟹腿前心理的描写:“我”最终鼓足勇气决定品尝一下蟹腿。give sth. a try尝试某物。故选C。A.改变;B.检查;D.触摸。
34．答案：D
解析：由上文中的“I managed t break the shell and cut my finger n the shell.”可知,“我”把蟹壳弄碎,却伤了自己的手指;由“it tasted gd”可知作者最后尝到了蟹腿。再结合空前的finally和选项可推断此处是作者吃蟹腿时最后的动作:最后“我”用刀尖从壳里挖出一点蟹肉。end up ding sth.最终做某事。故选D。talk abut ding sth.谈论做某事;wrry abut ding sth.担心做某事;give up ding sth.放弃做某事。
35．答案：C
解析：由上文中的“I managed t break the the tip f my knife t dig bits f meat ut f the shell.”可知,“我”费了九牛二虎之力才吃到蟹肉,所以此处表示“我从来没有过为了吃一顿饭必须这么努力的情况”。wrk hard努力做。故选C。
36．答案：A
解析：由上文可知,起初“我”非常不愿意品尝蟹肉,在丈夫的鼓励下,“我”决定试一试。结合空后的“it tasted gd”可知空后是作者没想到的结果(蟹肉竟然很好吃),与上文描述的作者不愿意品尝形成对比。由此推测此处表示一种意外。结合选项可知A项(令人惊讶地,出人意料地)符合语境,故选A。B.自然地;C.秘密地;D.不幸地。
37．答案：C
解析：由上文中的“it tasted gd”可知,“我”喜欢蟹肉浓郁、香甜的味道,故选C(喜欢)。A.想念,错过;B.描述;D.介意。
38．答案：attractins
解析：考查名词。句意：像许多退休的人一样，我的祖父母总是在春天去一些旅游景点旅行。作宾语，应用名词attractin。由sme修饰应用复数形式。故填attractins。
39．答案：admitted
解析：考查动词短语。句意：消息传来，李华由于努力学习被北京大学录取了。分析句子可知，此处为动词短语be admitted t“被准许进入，加入”，满足句意要求。故填admitted。
40．答案： srts
解析：考查固定短语。句意：当他们参加国际夏令营时，他们有机会出国参加各种各样的活动。srt“种类”为可数名词，固定短语all srts f表示“各种各样的”，设空处填srt复数形式。故填srts。
41．答案：Originally
解析：考查副词。句意：最初，西红柿种植在南非，在16世纪，它们传播到了世界其他地区。空处修饰后文整个句子应用所给词的副词形式。故填Originally。
42．答案：cnvenience
解析：考查固定短语。句意：如果您能尽快回复我的申请，我将不胜感激。分析句子可知，此处为固定短语at ne’s cnvenience“在某人方便时”，满足句意要求。故填cnvenience。
43．答案：①Grwing②cks③t④marriage⑤ate⑥feet⑦but⑧t try⑨a⑩burnt
解析：①考查现在分词。句意:我在英格兰长大,父亲是英国人,母亲是中国人,我很喜欢这两个国家的食物。分析句子结构可知,句中已有谓语动词have enjyed,因此设空处用非谓语动词;句子主语I与grw up之间为主动关系,因此用现在分词作状语。
②考查动词的时态和主谓一致。句中and连接两个并列分句。在and前的分句中,“wh was brn in Sichuan Prvince”是wh引导的非限制性定语从句,主句是“My mm ften ②_____ spicy dishes”,设空处是主句的谓语。根据空前的ften并结合语境可知此处表示一般情况,应用一般现在时;主句主语My mm为第三人称单数形式,谓语也应用第三人称单数形式,故填cks。
③考查介词。due t意为“由于”,为固定短语,故本空应用介词t。
④考查名词。根据空前的介词f可知设空处应用名词;由语境可知此处表示“多年的婚姻之后”,则设空处意为“婚姻”,故用名词marriage。
⑤考查动词的时态。句意:爸爸回忆说,在他们的婚礼上,当他看到中国人是如何吃动物的几乎每一部分时,他感到很震惊。分析句子结构可知,that引导宾语从句;在该宾语从句中,“when he ”为when引导的时间状语从句,其中“hw the animal”为hw引导的宾语从句,作saw的宾语,设空处为该宾语从句的谓语。由saw及语境可知该宾语从句应用一般过去时。
⑥考查名词的数。根据things like可知此处应用名词与chicken一起构成名词短语,作介词like的宾语;ft是可数名词,其前没有冠词等限定词修饰,应用复数形式,ft 的复数形式为feet。
⑦考查连词。句意:我的家人都喜欢(吃)烤的牛肉和蔬菜,但妈妈建议少吃烤的食物,因为它可能会使我们的身体遭受内热之苦。由语境可知设空处前后为转折关系,设空处表示“但是”,且位于句中,其前后为两个并列分句,因此应用but连接。
⑧考查动词不定式。encurage sb.t d sth.鼓励某人做某事。
⑨考查冠词。句意:我喜欢我尝试过的所有东西,除了臭豆腐,它是一种看起来和闻起来都像是烧焦的运动鞋的可怕的灰色东西。“⑨_____ hrrible grey ”是stinky tfu的同位语,对其进行解释;此处指“臭豆腐是一种……的东西”,表示泛指,应用不定冠词,且hrrible以辅音音素开头,故用不定冠词a。
⑩考查形容词。句意同上。sprts she为名词短语,其前应用形容词作定语,由语境可知设空处表示“烧焦的”,故填burnt。
