参考答案
一、1.B 2.C 3.C 4.C
5. D点拨：本题考查代词的用法。

句意：——你喜欢摇滚音乐还是轻音乐？——都
不(喜欢)。

七、范文
Dear Jenny,
I'm very happy that you want to come to Beijing during the winter holiday. Winter is the coldest season of the year. Sometimes it snows① and it is easy to catch a cold②. So winter is not the best time to come to Beijing①. But luckily②，you can experience the Chinese Spring Festival. You can taste many Chinese foods and know more about② Chinese culture. I think the
best season to come to Beijing is in autumn. It is neither too cold nor too hot. And you can see beautiful scenery everywhere. So I think you'd better①come to Beijing in autumn if it is possible. If you come in autumn, we can go to the Fragrant Hill. There we can see the red leaves all over the mountain. I'm sure you will have a wonderful time in Beijing.
Hope to hear from you soon.
Yours，
Linda。
