I like it very much.A. watchB. lookC. seeD. read【点拨】D 本题考查固定词组read novel读小说 read a book看书。本题易错选B，look是指看自然界的人和物。【迷点2】Jim thinks that they will have _ holiday.A. a two-monthB. two monthsC. two-monthsD. two months【点拨】A 本题考查的是合成名词作定语时的用法。“两个月”要作holiday的定语，有两种写法。two months或用连字符“-”将two和month连成一个词，无复数变化，前面用a修饰。故选A。经典探究【典型1】Wheres Mr. Yu, do you know?Well, its hard to say. But I saw him _ a football game just now.A. was watchingB. watchingC. had watchedD. watched【解析】B 考查动词see的用法。句意为“于老师在哪儿，你知道吗？”“嗯，很难说，不过刚才我看见他在看球赛”。see sb. do / doing sth. “看见某人正在做某事”。故选B。【典例2】Tomorrow is _. Will you buy some mooncakes, Mum?OK, Ill get some after work.A. Teachers DayB. Womens DayC. Spring FestivalD. Mid-autumn Day【解析】D 考查节日。句意为“明天是中秋节，你买些月饼好吗，妈妈？”“好的，下班后我去买。”Teachers Day“教师节”，Womens Day“妇女节”，Spring Festival“春节”，Mid-autumn Day“中秋节”，根据题意应选D。【典型例题】I. 根据句意及首字母提示完成单词 1.

Canadians also celebrate Thanksgiving Day, but they do it on the second Monday of October. In Britain, this festival is called “Harvest Festival”. People celebrate it earlier in the year, in September. A harvest is the fruit you take from the trees and the crops you take from the ground. In North America and Britain, harvest time for most fruit and crops is in the autumn. In these countries and other Christian places people give thanks to God on a special day of the year. They thank God for the good things that have happened during the year and for the good harvest they have had. People usually take small boxes of fruit, flowers and vegetables to their churches to show their thanks.The first thanksgiving service（仪式）in North America took place on December 4th, 1619, when 38 English people arrived in America to make their home in the new country. They held this service not to thank God for the harvest, but to thank God for their safe journey. The next year, much more English people arrived. They had a bad winter, but fortunately the harvest was good. They decided to celebrate it with a big meal. They shot and killed small animals to eat and cooked everything outside on large fires. About 90 Indians also came to the meal. Everyone ate at tables outside their houses and played games together. The festival lasted three days.A Thanksgiving Day celebration was held every year for a long time, but not always on the same day of the year. Then, in 1789, President George Washington named November 26th as the Day of Thanksgiving. In 1863, President Abraham Lincoln changed the date, and said that the last Thursday in November should be the Thanksgiving Day.Nowadays, North Americans around the world get together with their families on this day to eat good food and have a happy time.根据短文内容，回答下列问题。 1.
