Thanksgiving is America’s national holiday for giving thanks to God. Thanksgiving Day has a special【S1】for Americans because it is traced back to that group of people who were among the first to come to the New World in search of freedom.
In 1620, 102 sea weary(疲倦的)Pilgrims landed on the peninsula of Cape Cod. Their ship, the Mayflower, had【S2】to go to Virginia, but it made its landfall far to the north. After some weeks of【S3】they decided not to make the trip to Virginia but to remain where they were. But when they stepped ashore in this【S4】alien world, they were totally isolated from any outside【S5】and knew no means of livelihood. And the greater trouble is that in the woods live Indians, some of whom were【S6】. This added to the hardship of daily life. But the vast【S7】of forests gave them a hope. In this way, the nation’s forefathers not only【S8】the first severe winter, but also saw the first harvest of crops in the next autumn. Their Indian friends were also invited to join their festival.
This story is told every year to young children in schools as Thanksgiving Day(the fourth clay of November)【S9】.
Today, in US Thanksgiving Day is celebrated by many Americans whose roots do not stem from Britain. Now it is marked by families gathering together to enjoy a【S10】dinner for roast turkey, and to tell the things for which they are thankful.
A)approaches F)utterly K)exploring

C)traditional H)assistance M)significance
D)justified I)intended N)interfered
E)stretches J)appropriate O)normally
选项
答案
M
解析
名词辨义题[考频:12]。空格处单词位于形容词special之后,介词for之前,需要填入名词,由special修饰。该句意思为:对于美国人来说,这个节目可以追溯到一群为寻找自由而来到这个新世界的人们——即美国人的祖先,因而具有特殊“意义”。由此可知,M)significance“意义,重要性”符合题意。
