Early in November 1965, New York was blacked out by an electricity failure (停电). The Mayor promised that it would not happen again. Pessimists (悲观主义者) were certain that it would happen again within five years. In July 1977, there was a repeat performance which produced a serious disorder throughout the city. At that time the city was in one of its worst heat waves.

In 1965, there was little crime during the darkness, and fewer than a hundred people were arrested. In 1977, hundreds of stores were broken into and looted (劫掠). Nearly 4,000 people were arrested but far more disappeared into the darkness of the night. The number of policeman available was far from enough and some looters even carry guns.

Hospitals had to treat hundreds of people cut by glass from shop windows. Banks and most business remained closed the next day. The blackout started at 9:30 P.M., when lightning hit and knocked out supply cables. Many stores were thus caught by surprise. For twenty-four hours, New York realized how helpless it was without electricity.

According to the first paragraph, who were right: the authorities or the pessimists？

A．The authorities.

B．The pessimists.

C．Both.

D．Neither.

Generally speaking，the British Isles have a temperate(温和)climate，not an extreme one.

The prevailing(盛行)winds over Britain are southwesterly ones.The weather from day to day is variable，because it is controlled by depressions(低气压)from the Atlantic Ocean which，moving in a northeasterly or easterly direction，pass over or near the British Isles.Occasionally during winter months，between early December and the middle of March，northern winds may sometimes prevail，bringing cold weather and snowfalls which may last for several days or even 2 or 3 weeks，but seldom more than that.The English spring is very changeable，with warm and cold days in between until June.After the first week of May，you can take off your overcoats once and for all until the middle of October.But you certainly have to keep your raincoats and umbrellas close at hand，in any case.

There is always plenty of rain in Britain the whole year round.As a rule，the month with the least rainfall is July.At best，out of the 31 days of July，you might get 21 days of dry weather and sunshine.In July of 1973，London did not see a single drop of rain，but that was a rare exception.At that time，foreign tourists kept on asking the British where they had "imported" their sunshine from.Throughout the British Isles there is an annual rainfall of about 110 centimeters.England alone gets 89 centimeters annually of that British total.On average，May to July are the driest months in England，and November to early March the wettest.A period of as long as 3 weeks without rain is exceptional and normally confined to limited areas like the coasts of southwest England，Wales and the west coast of Scotland.June and July are the months of longest sunlight：from about 4：30 a.m.to 10：00 p.m.

1、Which of the following is NOT TRUE of the climate in Britain？ _____

A、Prevailing southwesterly winds.

B、Variable weather from day to day.

C、Snowfalls lasting for 2-3 weeks every winter.

D、Warm and cold days in between in spring.

2、The depressions from the Atlantic Ocean moved _____.

A、from the northeast to the west

B、from the southwest to the east

C、from the northwest to the southeast

D、from the east to the southwest

3、The period that is both coldest and wettest in Britain is _____.

A、between December and the middle of March

B、between early November and April

C、between November and early March

D、between early December and early March

4、A person who hates both rain and hot weather should choose to visit Britain in _____.

The fourth Thursday in November is called Thanksgiving Day. In the United States, it i

s 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 in1863.

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.()

2、Thanksgiving Day was first celebrated in 1621 by English settlers of the Plymouth Colony.()

3、President Washington set Thursday, November 26, 1789 as the First National Thanksgiving Day.()

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

5、The pattern of the Thanksgiving celebration has not changed through the years. The basic traditional food on Thanksgiving Day is roast turkey.()
