M: Next month you’re going to celebrate Thanksgiving Day. When is it? I often get confused about it.
W: It is supposed to be the fourth Thursday of November.
M: So, let’s see ... it will be November 23 this year. What are you going to do that day?
W: I will be home with my family, of course.
M: To thank God for a good harvest like the earlier settlers did centuries ago?
W: Oh, that’s history. True, every year we still tell our school kids the story of that famous Pilgrim feast. but for most of us, it’s just time for family reunions.
M: You usually eat roast turkey and potatoes for dinner. That’s what I’ve read.
W: Yes, and a lot of other things. It’s always a huge meal. That’s the tradition we still keep after so many years.
M: Sounds like our Mid-Autumn Festival. In the evening, the whole family gathers together to enjoy the bright moon while eating mooncakes.
W: Do you celebrate Christmas in China?
M: No, we don’t. We have our own Chinese New Year. We call it Spring Festival. How do you celebrate Christmas?
W: Besides Christmas dinner, we attend Church service and sing Christmas carols. Children hang their stockings near their beds or in the living room so that Santa Claus can fill them with candy and toys.
M: I know you have many other holidays.
W: Yes, we have Lincoln’s birthday, Valentine’s Day, Easter Sunday, April Fool’s Day, but let’s call it quits for now. The dancing party must have already begun. We have to rush.
选项
A、They still regard it an important traditional festival to thank God for a good harvest.
B、They think it a festival for only school children.
C、They don’t think it very important for them.
D、They only think it time for family to gather together ago.
答案
D
解析
根据选项可知,问题与某人的观点态度有关。对话中but for most of us,it’s just time for family reunions.=D。it代表Thanksgiving Day,对于大多数人来说,感恩节是家人团聚的日子。从女士所说的“that’s history”可知,to thank God for a good harvest是人们以前过节的目的,因此排除A;B在文中没有提到;C与原意相矛盾。
