分析 本文主要介绍了感恩节,感恩节是美国的法定假日,通常持续四天.美国人在每年十一月的第四个星期四庆祝它.那一天是表达感谢的日子,也是传统的家庭团聚的日子.感恩节前夕,家庭成员会开车甚至飞回家.第二天,他们坐在餐桌旁一起享受传统的晚餐.晚餐的主要美食是烤火鸡、甜土豆和布丁.每年的感恩节,美国的总统还会在白宫赦免火鸡.
解答 62.B.考查动词的用法及语境理解.根据One of the best things about Thanksgiving is--time with family.可知感恩节最好的事情之一就是和家人在一起.句子中含有time,意思应该是度过时间,所以这里用spend,故选B.

64.A.考查形容词的用法及语境的理解.根据上文Many people live far from their family members,so they need to travel long distances by car,train or plane to be with their loved ones--.可知许多人远离他们的家人,因此在感恩节期间,他们需要乘小轿车,坐火车或者坐飞机经过长时间的旅行回家和他们的家人在一起,所以说感恩节是旅行的繁忙的节日.故选A.
