M: Is it Christmas？
W: No. Christmas is not a typical American holiday, but the holiday I'm talking here is closely connected with the earliest history of the country and it was first celebrated in 1621 by English settlers.
M: By English settlers？ Why not native Indians？
W: Well, the settlers, or Pilgrims, fled from their native England to Holland in order to escape the religious prosecution. In 1620, they sailed to America on the Mayflower, seeking a place where they could have freedom of worship. Storms forced them to sail away from their original destination, Jamestown in Virginia. And after a two-month voyage they landed at Plymouth, Massachusetts, in icy November.
M: I once read that during the first winter, over half of the settlers died of starvation or epidemics.
W: True enough. Those who survived began sowing in the first spring. Luckily, a friendly Indian called Squanto taught them how to plant the corn and how to fertilize the soil.
M: So after the harvests in autumn, did the Pilgrims invite the Indians nearby to a meal for their help and friendship？
W: Yes, but to be more accurate, a thanksgiving feast.
M: I see, a day for giving thanks. Then on which day is it celebrated？
W: At that time, the Pilgrims objected to fixing the celebration by calendar. George Washington, the Public's first president, set Thursday, November 26, 1789, as the first national Thanksgiving Day. Even so, the controversy continued over the date: Thanksgiving. And since Lincoln's time, the celebration of Thanksgiving Day has been observed on the fourth Thursday of November until today.
M: What do we usually do on Thanksgiving Day？
W: The pattern has never changed through the years. Usually a family journey or a big family dinner is planned for the annual reunion. On the dinner table, you can find apples, oranges, chestnuts, plum puddings, mince pie, squash and so on. And the best and most attractive among them are roast turkey and pumpkin pie.
M: My mouth is watering now, Mrs. Brown. They have been the most traditional and always my favorite food on Thanksgiving Day. My mum cooks the same as the Americans do that day though we're not native.
27.What did the woman most probably talk about last time？
28.Where was Thanksgiving Day first celebrated？
29.When was Thanksgiving Day set as a national day for the first time in American history？
30.What can be inferred from the conversation？

听力原文：M: Hi, Christie, I brought you some tea.
W: Thanks, Mark. Too bad it's not apple tea, like in Turkey.
M: You really liked living in Turkey, didn't you？
W: Yeah, it was great.
M: How do you like the food in Turkey, Christie？
W: Oh, the food was fantastic! But people always expected me to eat too much, and I gained a lot of weight there!
M: Yes, it's so polite to be generous. We think people aren't polite if they don't offer a lot of food.
W: I know. I also learnt that it's not polite for the guest to accept the offer of food at first.
M: Yes, that's definitely true! If you're the guest, you must refuse the first two offers of food.
W: The first time I had dinner at a Turkish home, I felt rude to refuse. So I ate all the food the host offered me.
M: Do you know how to stop the host from offering you food？ You must leave some food on your plate. Then the host knows that you're full.
W: Oh, is that the trick？ In the United States, we usually eat everything. You don't want the host to think that you don't like the food.
M: That is the difference.
W: Americans think it's not polite to insist. We don't want to force you to eat more if you don't want more.
Where are these two speakers from respectively？
A．The man is from the US and the woman is from Turkey.
B．The man is from Turkey and the woman is from the US.

W: What do you do after the meal？
M: After dinner we'd like to go bowling. It's a fan thing to do together as a family (22) . After a couple of games, we go back home and eat the leftovers.

Section D
听力原文： "Christmas is coming, and the goose is getting fat!"
Christmas is the biggest festival in Britain and is celebrated on 25th December. The four weeks before Christmas are called Advent, and are traditionally celebrated in churches by lighting a candle each Sunday during this time. Nowadays, many people in Britain are not very religious, but they still celebrate Christmas, and watch out—the preparations begin long before Advent. In fact, as early as September or October, you start to see signs that Christmas is on the way.
The first places to tell us that we should be thinking about Christmas are the shops. People in Britain spend on average over ￡ 600 (around $1,000) per person on Christmas every year, and the shops encourage people to spend more and more. Shops put up Christmas decorations, play cheesy Christmas songs or carols, and some shop workers wear Christmas hats. Some big shops on Regent Street and Oxford Street in London create wonderful displays in their windows with moving characters, failing snow, colourful lights and music.
So what do people buy in preparation for Christmas？ Well, Christmas decorations, Christmas cards to send to friends and relatives, presents for loved ones and wrapping paper to wrap them up with. And of course food ! Apart from the special Christmas dinner of roast turkey or goose, people buy lots of chocolates, nuts and snacks for everyone to enjoy.
Children are the people who get the most excited that Christmas is coming. They start making lists of presents they would like, and give them to their parents, or send them to Santa Claus. In December, they can also open Advent calendars, which are a way of counting down to Christmas. These calendars have a window to open for every day from the 1 st to the 24th of December (Christmas Eve).
A basic Advent calendar has a Christmassy picture behind each window, but most children's favourite calendars are chocolate Advent calendars, which show a chocolate for every day of the month. It's a great build-up to the overeating that goes on at Christmas!
