【题目】C

Ah, Thanksgiving--- truly my favorite holiday. A day off with family and friends and football and an exorbitant amount of food .It doesn’t get much more American than that. Let's look at some interesting Thanksgiving traditions to shed light on this delicious American tradition.

How it started

The story: In the early 1620s, as the first English settlers ( called Pilgrims) arrived in America searching for a life free of religious persecution , they experienced very difficult harvests- as the climate was quite different from that of England. They eventually established (temporarily) good relations with the local Native Americans, called the Wampanoag tribe. The Wampanoag leader Squanto, along with his tribe of friendly Native Americans, helped the English settlers learn how to farm and fish in the harsh and rocky climate of Massachusetts. In 1621, they celebrated the Harvest Festival together. And the Thanksgiving tradition was born! It became an official American holiday under Abraham Lincoln amidst the turmoil of the American Civil War in 1863.

What it means now

Now, after the American colonists destroyed native cultures and sequestered them onto reservations, the current American Thanksgiving has hardly anything to do with a celebration of cordial relations between peoples. Today, we try to forget America's guilty past and celebrate our family, friends, and good health on this day. Americans celebrate Thanksgiving much like Chinese people do the Spring Festival - with family members pouring in from all directions to get reunion and break bread. We play football, watch football, and eat a hell of a lot of turkey.

American Turkey

Founding Father Benjamin Franklin wanted the turkey to be the national bird of America. In a letter to his daughter, he wrote that the turkey, in comparison to the eagle, was " a far more respectable bird" and a true native of America .

Additionally, he thought that bald eagles had a " bad moral character".

Presidential Pardon

The American president pardons one turkey every year. Every year since I947, the National Turkey Federation presents one live turkey to the President, and in 1987, President Ronald Reagan jokingly pardoned the live turkey. This became an official tradition in 1989. Pardoned turkeys are sent off to live the rest of their short lives. Lucky turkeys!

Black Friday

This is the most despicable of Thanksgiving traditions. A caveat(提醒)---many Americans don't take part in this activity of burning money. The Friday after Thanksgiving is called " Black Friday" , and all across America, people go out to their local stores to buy discounted everything, in packages of 36. Every year, a few people die from trampling as the doors to the store open. Thankfully, with the rise of e-commerce sites such as Amazon, people are moving more to online shopping to take advantage of Black Friday deals.

【题目】Though the last book of the spectacular (壮观的) Harry Potter series was released seven years ago in 2007, the young wizard continues to be extremely popular with both kids and adults. Over the years, Harry Potter fans have been able to experience numerous aspects of the young wizard’s life, right down to his favorite drink — butter beer. Now thanks to a British hotel, they can also spend a night in the wizard’s Hogwarts Castle dormitory room.

The four-star Georgian Hotel in Central London, which recently opened its two wizard chambers(房间), is ideally suited to reproducing J.K. Rowling’s school of wizardry (巫术). That’s because the hotel, which is still run by the descendants of the original owners, dates all the way back to 1851. It still remains its original styles inside.

According to the owner of the 163-year-old Georgian Hotel, the idea originated as a way to create a kid-friendly environment in a hotel that is well-known for its Victoria Classic and Belgravia Boutique rooms.

The wizard chambers that have been refinished to resemble the Hogwarts Castle dormitory rooms are furnished with everything a wizard fan could think of — four-poster beds, stone wash basins, potion bottles, cauldrons (汽锅大锅), spelling books and even study tables. In order to make them appear even more magical, the hotel owners have added their own special touches that include placing a wand in the hand of the Mona Lisa painting that is in one of the chambers.

As you may have guessed, these unique accommodations are not cheap. The rooms, breakfast included, cost about $350 for two people. Kids sharing the same room pay only an additional $40 each. Given that the big wizard chamber can contain up to five people, the overall cost is perfect for families that are all Harry Potter fans. Special packages include a Muggle Walking Tour that takes Harry Potter fans through the areas of the city where parts of the movies were filmed or a visit to Warner Brothers Studio, home of the Harry Potter films’ sets and props (道具).

The hotel is certainly generating a lot of buzz among Harry Potter fans!

1How long does the Georgian Hotel exist?

A. It has been existing in London for three hundred years..

B. It has a history of more than 160 years.

C. It has been there since 2007.

D. It has been visited by the Harry Potter fans since 1851.

2Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?.

A. The hotel opening two wizard chambers originated as a way to create a kid-friendly environment.

B. All of the books of the spectacular (壮观的) Harry Potter series were released seven years ago in 2007.

C. As you may have guessed, these unique accommodations are very cheap.

D. The wizard chambers arent furnished as a wizard fan could think of.

3If Mr Green and his wife with three children want to stay in the hotel for a night, how much should they pay?

A. $ 350. B. $ 390. C. $ 430. D. $ 470.
