13、的(special)”活动。2.C根据上文中的“Everyotheryearsomething.happensthere”可知,这个活动每两年举行一次,是当地的“习俗(custom)”。3.B根据第二段中的“Itsallaboutgettingpeopletogether”可知,这个节日把整个镇子凝聚成一个大“家庭(family)”。4.D根据下文中的“inhugekettlesoveropenfires”可知,这个镇子用“传统的(traditional)”方式制作苹果酱。5.B根据下文中的“butithastobedoneright”与本句话的转折关系可知,制作苹果酱并不“复杂(compli
14、cated)”。6.B根据上文中的“stirredforhours”及“Thefirecantbetoohot,ortoocool.Youcantstirtoofast,ortooslow”可知,苹果酱的制作过程中需要一直用搅拌棒搅拌,不能“停(stop)”下。7.A根据上文中的“gettingpeopletogether”及下文中的“passersbyarewavedovertothestir”可知,当地人也“欢迎(welcomed)”陌生人过来一起搅拌苹果酱。8.C根据上文中搅拌不能停止可知,当地人欢迎陌生人和路过的人也加入他们,“轮流(turn)”搅拌苹果酱。9.D根据下文中的“when
15、AppleButterWeekendwasjusther,hermother,andhergrandmother”以及“Thesedaystheyll.”可知,Young“回忆起(remembers)”了以前全家人一起制作苹果酱的日子。10.B根据上文中的“gettingpeopletogether”可知,此处Young一家将“吸引(draw)”40多个人一起做苹果酱。11.C根据上文中许多陌生人参与制作苹果酱及下文中的“ifyouask,youregoingtogetit”可知,做好的苹果酱大多数分给家人,其余的分享给了来自各地的人们。“endupinfridges”形象地表达了这层含义。1
16、2.D根据下文中的“ifyouask,youregoingtogetit”可知,当地人不“卖(sell)”苹果酱,常常送给别人。13.C根据上文中的“Thefamilyhasfacedmanychallengesovertheyears”以及下文中的“Butwherevertheyvelived”可知,这家人曾多次“搬家(moving)”。14.D根据下文中的“bydoingthelittlethingstherightway,payingattentionateverymoment”可知,Young的父母交朋友的方式与制作苹果酱的方式“相同(same)”,都是认真地做好每件小事,每时每刻都关

18、t”可知,前后两句为转折关系,再根据语境可知,此处应选Instead。20.A本句总结全文,在此指出,苹果酱制作周传承了经久不变的“价值观(values)”。.1.nodded考查一般过去时。由前面的“Hehesitatedamoment”可知,设空处所表示的动作发生在过去,应用一般过去时,故填nodded。2.words考查名词复数。word在此意为“话语”,是可数名词且表泛指,应用复数形式,故填words。3.tomake考查不定式做宾语的用法。expecttodosth.意为“期待做某事”。4.saying考查动词-ing形式做宾语的用法。设空处做by的宾语,故填saying。5.how
