ANEW YORK— Picking a Christmas tree takes most people a few minutes, or a couple of hours if they head for the woods. Dave Murbach needs 11 months.Almost every day of every year, Murbach‟s thoughts turn to vision of a perfectly shaped evergreen tree that will take everyone's breath away.Murbach is the man responsible for finding the towering tree that makes more attractive Manhattan‟s Rockefeller Center each Christmas season.“I'm always looking for a tree,” the center's chief gardener says. “I look for it even when I go to the beach in the summer. It‟s like a homework assignment hanging over your head.”And if he gets it wrong, there's nothing hiding it.“Every day it's up, 400,000 people go by, and 2.5 million people watch the lighting celebration on television,”he says.This year‟s tree, a 74-foot Nomy spruce (云杉) from Richfield, Ohio, flown to New York on the world's largest cargo plane, was lighted on December 2.The arrival of the tree leads in the Christmas season in New York — a tradition dating back to 1931, when the workers building Rockefeller Center put up a small tree with ornaments.The search for the next year's tree starts soon after the old tree is chopped up for wood chips and horse-jumping logs.Murbach has three standards: The tree must be at least 65 feet high, at least 35 feet across and leaves dense enough not to see through.That's not as simple as it sounds. Though forests are full of evergreens, few get enough sunlight or space to fill out. And branches in snow regions often break under the weight, making trees unbalanced.Back at the office, he sorts through hundreds of letters from people offering their trees, many addressed simply to “Mr. Christmas Tree Man.”Though there was occasional anxiety attack and sleepless night, Murbach knows the effect the tree has on people: “It's for bringing people together, attempting to bring together people you love. That's what I hope it sets off.” But Murbach says he's always too worn out to celebrate Christmas.21. Which is the correct order of the events in the passage?a. Murbach‟s thoughts turn to a perfectly shaped tree.b. 2.5 million people watch the Christmas tree.c. The tree is flown to New York.d. It was lighted on December 2.e. The tree is chopped up.f. Murbach searches for the tree.A. a, b, c, d, e, fB. c, d, b, f, e, aC. c, d, e, b, a, fD. a, f, c, d, b, e22. Why does Murbach take his job seriously?A. Because he wants everyone to be happy with his choice.B. Because he hopes to make everybody unable to breathe.C. Because he enjoys showing off.D. Because he wishes to attract people's attention to himself.23. According to Murbach' s standard of trees, the best tree must _____.A. be evergreenB. have lots of space between their branchesC. be tall enough not to see throughD. be equally balancedBBook clubs help to create a reading-friendly environment and encourage people to continually develop and strengthen their skills. By creating a book club with your children, you are teaching your family that reading can be fun and enriching.When you create your family‟s book club make sure to allow your children to help in the planning. A great way they can help to establish the club is to allow them to pick the name. by establishing a club name and even a club motto, you are bringing the club to life. Additionally, getting your children involved with the early stages of the book club will make them more dedicated (献身) to the cause. Another idea is to invite other families over once a month for a book party. This is a great social event that will make children excited about reading. Have your kids create the invitations and help choose the theme.Reading goals could be to read a specific number of books, a variety of different styles, or to read an entire series of books. When your club meets its goal then it is time for an awards ceremony or special celebration. Encourage each member to come up with an award to present to another member ( as a parent, you, of course, will create a special and specific award for each child to ensure that no one is left out).Establishing a club name, motto, meeting time, discussion, goals awards and parties are just some of the many ways you can make a book club work in your family. As your kids grow and mature, the club can develop a much better book discussion group to fit your children‟s needs and interests. What is most important with book clubs is to make sure everyone is having fun and benefiting from the chance to read.24. From the first paragraph we can know that _______.A. it is popular to build book clubs at homeB. people can benefit from book clubsC. most people‟s reading skills are very poorD. reading is rather difficult but interesting25.

We think of it as a candy, but onceit was a medicine. Today, chocolate can be a hot drink, a frozen dessert, or just a snack. Sometimes it's an ingredient(配料) in the main course of a meal. Mexicans make a hot chocolate sauce called mole and pour it over chicken. The Mexicans also eat chocolate with spices(香料) like chili peppers.Chocolate is a product of the tropical cacao tree. The beans taste so bitter that even the monkeys say “Ugh！” and run away. Work ers must first dry and then roast the beans. This removes the bitter taste.The word “chocolate” comes from a Mayan word. The Mayas were an ancient people who once lived in Mexico. They valued the cacao tree. Some used the beans for money, while others crushed them to make a drink.When the Spaniards came to Mexico in the sixteenth century, they started drinking cacao too. Because the drink was strong and bitter, they thought it was a medicine. No one had the idea of adding sugar. The Spaniards took some beans back to Europe and opened cafes. Wealthy people drank cacao and said it was good for the digestion.In the 1800s, the owner of a chocolate factory in England discovered that sugar removed the bitter taste of cacao. It quickly because a cheap and popular drink. Soon afterwards, a factory made the first solid block of sweetened chocolate. Later on, another factory mixed milk and chocolate together. People liked the taste of milk chocolate even better.Besides the chocolate candy bar, one of the most popular American snacks is the chocolate chip cookie. Favorite desserts are chocolate cream pie and, of course, an ice cream sundae with hot fudge sauce.28．Who discovered sugar could remove the bitter taste of cacao?A．The workers in the chocolate factory.B．The Spaniards.C．The people in England.D．The owner of a chocolate factory.29．According to the passage which of the following statements is true?A．Nobody had the idea of adding sugar until the sixteenth century.B．The word “chocolate” comes from a Mexi can word.C．The beans taste so bitter that even the monkeys like them.D．Workers must dry and roast the beans to remove the bitter taste.30．The Spaniards think that cacao was a medicine because ________.A．it was strong and bitterB．it was good for digestionC．it cured man's diseasesD．it was a kind of drink for good health31．Which is the right time order of the events regarding chocolate?a．Chocolate became a cheap and popular drink in England.b．A factory made the first solid block of sweetened chocolate.c．The Spaniards started drinking cacao.d．It was found that sugar removed the bitter taste of cacao.e．A factory mixed milk and chocolate together.A．a－b－c－d－e B．c－d－e－b－aC．c－d－a－b－e D．c－d－b－e－aDService Foods makes it easier for cooks to reduce mealtime complains.
