5、给孩子压岁钱以表示对孩子的祝福。 1who考查定语从句。分析本句结构可知，空处引导非限制性定语从句，在从句中作主语，先行词为a 32yearold British woman，故用who引导该定语从句。2excitement考查名词。根据空前的定冠词the可知，空处用名词形式。3highest考查形容词最高级。根据语境并结合常识可知，抢到红包金额最高的人要发下一个红包，故用形容词最高级。4have joined考查动词的时态。根据该句中的“so far”，可知，到目前为止，已经有许多外国人被“微信红包”这一特殊的交流方式吸引，并参与了抢红包和发红包。据此可知，本句用现在完成时。5largely

7、ed考查动词的时态和语态。这种纸质的红包被称为“压岁钱”。根据句意可知，主语It和动词call之间为动宾关系，故用被动语态；本句陈述的是一般现象，故用一般现在时。10a考查不定冠词。人们将给孩子压岁钱作为一种祝福。此处泛指“一种祝福”，故用不定冠词。.阅读理解A(2016合肥第一次质检)When youre looking forward to taking a holiday in Egypt,youre certainly not short of choices.The country has so many to see that youll probably not want to
