17．A turkey named Courage gave thanks to President Obama for saving his life on the day before Thanksgiving．Honouring a 62-year-old tradition，the President pardoned（赦免）the bird on Thanksgiving eve．
The tradition of a turkey pardon at Thanksgiving began with President Truman in 1947．Courage comes from Ellsworth，Iowa．The name Courage was chosen by voters （投票人）who took part in a survey posted on the White House website．The lucky turkey walked on the lawn of the Rose Garden and posed for the cameras at the presidential podium（講臺）．
The dinner that has become known as the First Thanksgiving was actually a harvest festival celebrated in December of 1621．That's when English settlers in Plymouth，Massachusetts，gave thanks for the progress they had made after a hard winter in their new country．As America grew，Thanksgiving customs also spread and got bigger．George Washington declared that the first national Thanksgiving would be on November 26，1789．In the decades to follow，however，people celebrated Thanksgiving locally，with no official date．President Abraham Lincoln declared the last Thursday in November 1863a national day of Thanksgiving．It stayed that way until 1939，when President Franklin D．Roosevelt moved it one week earlier．He wanted to lengthen the shopping period before Christmas to encourage gift-buyers and to help businesses．So Congress（議會） ruled that，after 1941，Thanksgiving would be an official federal holiday falling on the fourth Thursday of November．
This year we celebrated Thanksgiving on Thursday，November．Millions of Americans got together to give thanks with friends and family．The lucky turkey，Courage，was one of them．After his pardon，Courage would be sent to Disneyland Resort in California，where he would be the grand assemble of Disney's Thanksgiving Day Parade．

31．That the turkey Courage was pardoned was decided byD．
A．George Bush
B．Congress
C．President Truman
D．the public
32．The first Thanksgiving Day was held toA．
A．celebrate the harvest of British settlers
B．celebrate the progress of Americans
C．encourage the struggle with British settlers
D．celebrate the joy of all Americans after a hard winter
33．We can infer（推斷）from the passage thatD．
A．President Obama pardoned a turkey before Thanksgiving because of the economic crisis
B．the turkey named Courage was pardoned by President Roosevelt before Thanksgiving
C．the pardoned turkey walked on the lawn of the Rose Garden on Thanksgiving eve
D．the pardoned turkey will appear in a celebrating parade of Thanksgiving Day．

分析一個叫Courage的火雞，感謝奧巴馬總統在感恩節的前一天拯救了它的生命．62年的傳統，總統會在圣誕節前夕赦免火雞．按照習俗，美國總統每年都會在感恩節前一天在白宮赦免火雞，使其免于成為感恩節大餐．美國總統特赦火雞的傳統始于杜魯門總統時代．在感恩節這一天，數以百萬計的美國人聚集在一起，表示給家人和朋友的感謝．

解答 31：D．細節理解題．通讀第二段The name Courage was chosen by voters （投票人）who took part in a survey posted on the White House website可知是由公眾投票決定的．故選D．
32：A．細節理解題．根據第三段，The dinner that has become known as the First Thanksgiving was actually a harvest festival celebrated in December of 1621．，第一個感恩節是為慶祝豐收的．可知應選A．
33：D．細節理解題．結合最后After his pardon，Courage would be sent to Disneyland Resort in California，where he would be the grand assemble of Disney's Thanksgiving Day Parade．可知該赦免火雞將出現在一個慶祝的感恩節游行上．故選D．

8．We are in the middle of the winter．It's cold and we're suffering from （受…苦） the cold wind and rain．The sun，and even when it does show its face，is setting at 4pm．It's no wonder people in the street look sad．
But according to most of the research on the connection between weather and mood （情緒），they shouldn't be．Weather has little effect （影響） on mood．
When you tell people this，though，they don't believe it．Most of us think the weather has quite a strong effect on our mood．Many think that the rain and cold weather dejects us and the sun and warmth cheers us up．
So why don't we see this effect in the research？That's the question a new study by Klimstra et al．tries to answer with a group of young people and their mothers．In fact，Klimstra et al．found 4different groups．
1．The unaffected （不受影響的人）：about half the people in their study fell into this group．For these people it didn't matter that much whether it was raining or sunny，hot or cold，their mood was mostly unaffected．
2．Summer lovers：here's the group you'd expect．For these people，their mood improved with less rain，more sun and high temperatures （15% of young people and 30% of their mothers）．
3．Summer haters：here's a group of people you hear less about．They were happier when there was more rain，less sun and lower temperatures （27% of young people and 12% of their mothers）．
4．Rain haters：this group's mood didn't change with the temperature，sunshine or the wind； they just hated the rain （8% of the young people and 12% of their mothers ）．
This helps explain why studies keep finding that weather doesn't have much effect on mood； it's because we're different and these differences are mostly being averaged．

42．It's found in the study thatD．
A．cold wind and rain makes most people look sad
B．weather has a strong effect on mood
C．the sun and the warmth cheers most people up
D．mood is little effected by weather
43．The underlined word"dejects"in the third paragraph probably meansA．
A．make sb．sad
B．make sb．happy
C．make sb．angry
D．make sb．silly
44．Which group of people like dry and hot weather？B
A．The unaffected．
B．Summer lovers．
C．Summer haters．
D．Rain haters．
45．The best title for the passage isC．
A．Do different people have different mood？
B．Why do people feel sad in cold winter？
C．Does the weather really affect your mood？
D．How many different groups are there？
