come to them． They order one from the pages of a catalog or on the Internet． Some say the easiest thing of all is to buy a man­made tree with Christmas lights already on it． No falling needles to have to clean up．The  National  Christmas  Tree  Association  says 33,000,000 real trees were sold last year， compared to 9,000,000 man­made ones． Man­made trees generally cost more， but they can be reused． Most natural trees are cut up and recycled， but some people buy trees that can be planted．Most Christmas trees are now grown on farms instead of in forests．  Twenty­one thousand tree farmers in the United States grow Christmas trees on more than 180,000 hectares． Oregon was the leading producer last year．Twenty­two percent of people who bought real trees last year chose them at a farm．  Two percent of those people cut the trees themselves．  The next most popular places were big stores like Walmart and Home Depot．Groups like the Boy Scouts also sell Christmas trees． But some people pay nothing for theirs． They steal it．Cornell University in Ithaca， New York， has many pretty evergreens．  Some years ago， a university worker found a way to keep them there．  A month before Christmas， workers treated them with “pink ugly mix”． It contains water and red food colour．  The bright colour starts to disappear after about a month． It can take longer， however． Cornell decided not to use the mix this year， but the idea has spread．1．Man­made trees are chosen for Christmas partly because________．A．they cost less than real onesB．they are usually sold with giftsC．they look prettier than real onesD．they can be used for more than once答案：D　细节理解题。根据第二段第二句可知，可重复使用是人造圣诞树的优点之一。2．What can we learn from the passage？A．Oregon produced the most Christmas trees last year．B．Most Christmas trees come directly from the forests．C．All real trees for Christmas are recycled  by Americans．D．Man­made Christmas trees are more popular with Americans．答案：A　细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句“Oregon was the leading producer last year．”可知，去年Oregon生产的圣诞树最多。3．People can get their Christmas trees from the following places EXCEPT ________．A．Oregon  B．Home DepotC．Boy Scouts  D．Cornell University答案：D　细节理解题。根据最后一段可知，康奈尔大学不生产也不销售圣诞树。4．The passage is mainly about________．A．the important festivals in AmericaB．the origin of Christmas as a holidayC．the way Americans celebrate ChristmasD．the popularity of Christmas trees in America答案：D　主旨大意题。本文通过具体数据说明了圣诞节时圣诞树在美国的销售情况，进而揭示圣诞树在美国很受欢迎。Ⅴ．七选五根据短文内容，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。How can parents express high (but not too high) expectations of their children？Set realistic goals．__1__Be aware that setting goals that are too low can be boring， while setting goals that are too high can lead to disappointment and possible failure．Encourage special talents． Don't expect your child to become a doctor or lawyer just because they are respected professions．__2__If your child loves dance， voice your expectation that he or she works hard to become better at what he or she loves． If your child loves science， voice your expectation that he or she enters the science fair．Talk about the future．__3__But talking generally about your expectations for the future (expecting him or her to attend college or expecting him or her to work toward a profession he or she loves) can help him or her better form his or her own aspirations and dreams．__4__If you are working toward your own goals and improving yourself in a way that your child can see， he or she will learn not only to achieve what is expected of him or her from others， but also to expect himself or herself to achieve through hard work and planning．Don't get too specific． While it is healthy to expect your child to achieve and make great progress in school， it is not healthy for either parent or child to expect to win a state championship．__5__A．Share your expectations of yourself．B．Your child may feel discouraged or depressed．C．You should set challenging but possible goals for your child．D．Setting overly specific goals about the future can lead to disappointment．E．Encourage your child to set goals for himself or herself and then work toward them．F．Setting very high and detailed standards for your child can be very damaging．G．Take your child's interests and talents into consideration when setting expectations．1．__________　2．__________　3．__________4．__________　5．__________文章大意：研究发现，对孩子的成功给予正确的鼓励和期望更有益于孩子成长。本文介绍了孩子不负所望的方法。答案：1．E　本段主旨为：制订切合实际的目标。下一句提到制订过高或过低的目标均不利于孩子的健康发展，故E项(鼓励你的孩子为自己制订目标并致力于实现它们)符合语境。2．G　本段主旨为：鼓励孩子发展专长。上一句提到不要仅仅因为它们是受尊重的职业就期望孩子成为医生或律师，故G项(设立期望时要考虑你孩子的兴趣和天赋)符合上下文语境。3．D　此处与下文语境中的generally(大致)相对应。此处应选择D项(为孩子的未来制订过于具体的目标会让孩子沮丧)。4．A　本段主要介绍了父母通过自己致力于实现自己的目标并提高自我的方式对孩子进行耳濡目染的影响，故A项(分享一下你对自己的期望)符合本段主旨。5．F　本段主旨为：不要过于具体详细。上一句提到期望孩子夺得州冠军的具体目标不利于孩子健康发展。F项(为孩子制订很高、很详细的标准具有危害性)符合语境。
