M: Next month you’re going to celebrate Thanksgiving Day. When is it? I often get confused about it.
W: It is supposed to be the fourth Thursday of November.
M: So, let’s see. It will be November 23 this year. What are you going to do on that day?
W: I will be home with my family, of course.
M: To thank God for a good harvest like the earlier settlers did centuries ago?
W: Oh, that’s history. True, every year we still tell our school kids the story of that famous Pilgrim feast, but for most of us, it’s just time for family reunions.
M: You usually eat roast turkey and potatoes for dinner. That’s what I’ve read.
W: Yes, and a lot of other things. It’s always a huge meal. That’s the tradition we keep after so many years.
M: Sounds like our Mid-Autumn Festival. In the evening, the whole family gathers together to enjoy the bright moon while eating moon-cakes.
W: Do you celebrate Christmas in China?
M: No, we don’t. We have our own Chinese New Year. We call it Spring Festival. How do you celebrate Christmas?
W: Besides Christmas dinner, we attend Church service and sing Christmas carols. Children hang their stockings near their beds or in the living room so that Santa Claus can fill them with candy and toys.
M: I know you have many other holidays.
W: Yes, we have Lincoln’s birthday, Valentine’s Day, Easter Sunday, April Fool’s Day, but let’s call it quits for now. The dancing party must have already begun. We have to rush.
Questions 23 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.
23. What often makes the man feel confused?
24. What do most of people in the woman’s country now think of Thanksgiving Day?
25. Why does the woman have to stop their talk about festivals?
选项
A、They still regard it as an important traditional festival to thank God for a good harvest
B、They think it a festival for only school children.
C、They don’t think it very important for them.
D、They only think it time for family to gather together.
答案
D
解析
选项表明,本题考查They对感恩节的看法。由女士提到的for most of us,it’s just time for family reunions可知,女士所在的国家大多数人认为感恩节是全家团聚的日子,故答案为[D]。
