8、e and useful.CPackaged and invaluable.DNice but unsuitable.【解题导语】本篇文章是说明文，讲述怎样转送不喜欢或者不太适合自己的礼物。【难句分析】In order to prevent hurting feelings，provide everyone with a guest list and ask them not to bring anything given by the people on that list.分析：这是一个复杂的简单句。In order to prevent hurting feelings 是目的状语；过去

9、分词短语 given by the people on that list作 anything的后置定语；provide everyone with a guest list and ask them not to bring anything是由 and连接的两个并列祈使句。译文：为了防止伤害感情，(你)可以向每位客人提供一张宾客名单，且要求他们不要带任何名单上的人已经送过的礼物。1B 考查推理判断。第一段点出了文章主旨，首句采用设问句是为了引出全文的话题“Everyone has received an unwanted gift.It simply means that it doesn

10、t work for you”，从而引出下文，所以选 B。2A 考查细节理解。根据第二段中的“this practice that is more and more common as people find it difficult to make ends meet to a great extent”可知，转送礼物变得越来越常见是因为人们发现在很大程度上实现收支平衡很难，故选项 A“人们缺钱”正确。3A 考查段落大意。通读第三段可知，该段首句为段落中心句，指出对于一件将被转送的礼物你有几件具体事情要做，故选项 A“在转送礼物之前该做什么”与中心句意思最接近，所以选 A。B 项意为“怎么充

11、分利用不想要的礼物” ；C 项意为“什么类型的礼物可以转送” ；D 项意为“为什么转送礼物可能引起尴尬” 。这三个选项与该段主题不符，故排除。4D 考查词义猜测。根据第二段首句“If you find yourself with something nice but that doesnt fit into your lifestyle，consider regifting it”并结合第3三段内容可知，要转送的礼物应是很好的但不适合自己的，所以 D选项正确。white elephant意为“昂贵而无用之物” 。二、单项填空1.After a long _, the bill was pass
