从前有一个小男孩住在偏远的农场。每天早晨他需要在太阳升起前起床来帮助父亲干农活。他在围墙上总能看到一个金色窗户的房子,他非常的向往,有一天,他决定去看一看。

2句意:如果他们能买得起金色的窗户,那么在房子里一定有其他漂亮的东西。

此空是形容词作定语,修饰名词thingsnice为形容词,意为漂亮的。故选A

【题目】 For many American university students, the weeklong spring break holiday means an endless party on a sunny beach. In Panama City Beach, Florida, a city with a population of around 36,000, more than half a million university students arrive during the month of March to play and party, making it hit number one spring break place in the United Stated.

A weeklong party is not everyone, however, and a growing number of American university students have found a way to make spring break matter. For them, joining or leading a group of volunteers to help solve problems such as homelessness or pollution makes spring break a special learning experience that university students can feel good about.

During one spring break week, students from James Madison University in Virginal took part in 15"spring break" trips to nearby states, three others to more distant parts of the United States, and five international trips. One group of JMU students traveled to Bogalusa, Louisiana, to help rebuild homes damaged by Hurricane(飓风) Katrina. Another group traveled to Mississippi to organize creative activities for children living in a homeless shelter. One group of students did go to Florida, but not to lie on the sand. They performed some tiring work such as keeping hiking roads in good condition and helping protect the native Florida plants.

Students who take part in spring break projects find them very rewarding(值得的). While most university students have to get their degrees before they can start helping people, student volunteers are able to help people right now. On the other hand, the buildings or rooms where they live or stay are far from attractive(迷人的). Students often sleep on the floor of a school or church. But they only pay around $250 for meals and transportation, which is much less than some of their friends spend traveling to more traditional spring break hot places.

Spring break projects appear to be growing in popularity at universities across the United States. Some students take the opportunity to meet new friends. Others want to exercise their beliefs to make the world a better place. Whatever their reasons, these students have discovered something that give them rich rewards along with a break from school work.

【题目】 An idiom (习语)is a phrase that we can’ t understand from the meaning of each word. For example, if an American boy asks his mum what’s for dinner tomorrow, she may say, “I’ll play it by ear.” That means she doesn’t have plans for dinner and she will decide later.

“Play it by ear” used to mean playing music without using the sheet music (活页乐谱),but now it’s different.

There are many idioms in English. If you learn to use them, your English will be much more colorful.

Have you ever heard the idiom “He bought the farm”? It means “He died Do you know how it became popular? It was first used in World War I. When a soldier died, the government gave his family enough money to buy a farm.

In the early 1930s, people in the US often did not know when or where their next meal was. So as soon as they got something in their hand that could be eaten, it would go into their mouth. That was how people began to use the idiom “live hand to mouth”.

And don’t be angry if your English friend says this to you, “Break a leg in your game!”

He is wishing you good luck! Hundreds of years ago, people believed in sprites (小精灵).Sprites enjoyed causing trouble. If the sprites heard you ask for something, they would make the opposite happen. Tell someone to “break a leg” and the sprites would make something good happen.
