詳析

1 . B由doesn’t begin on the... date可知，每年新年開始的日期并不都是相同的。

2. C本句用的是現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行時(shí)，結(jié)合listen to music...可知，此處表示“在……的同時(shí)”，故答案為C.

3. D由這組數(shù)字的排列規(guī)律可以看出，他們正在倒計(jì)時(shí)，故此處應(yīng)當(dāng)是“數(shù)數(shù)”之意。

4. A當(dāng)?shù)褂?jì)時(shí)剛結(jié)束時(shí)，人們都會(huì)歡呼，故答案為A項(xiàng)B項(xiàng)表示“安靜地”；C項(xiàng)表示“悲傷地”；D項(xiàng)表示 “安全地”，二者均不符合題意。

5. A由when the weather is fine可以判斷出，天氣好的時(shí)候，許多家庭會(huì)出去散步。

6. B make resolutions for the new year 表示“制訂新年計(jì)劃”，結(jié)合a list of things可知，此處表示“寫下” A項(xiàng)表示 “穿上”；C項(xiàng)表示“帶走”；D項(xiàng)表示“照顧”，二者均不 符合題意。

7. C由make resolutions可知，此處應(yīng)當(dāng)表示“更加努力地”

8. D由本句中的兩個(gè)they可知，此處表示“他們的”。

9. A promise表示“許下諾言”，結(jié)合their resolutions可知，此處表示“遵循”最恰當(dāng)，故答案為A.

10. B 由 it's a time to say goodbye 可知，say goodbye to the old year 的邏輯主語(yǔ)應(yīng)當(dāng)是 people in countries all over the world,故答案為B

 in tiie same way 以相同的方式 make resolutions 作出決定 promise v.許下諾言

障礙句分析

So it doesn't matter how they celebrate,for people in countries all over the world,it's a time to say goodbye to the old year,and to welcome the new.所以他們?nèi)绾螒c祝新年并不重要，因?yàn)閷?duì)于世界各地的人們來(lái)說(shuō)，這是一個(gè)辭舊迎新的時(shí)刻
