三、阅读理解
根据文章内容，判断下列句子正误，正确填写“T”，错误填写“F”。
Halloween is a strange holiday. It started several centuries ago in Europe. It began as "Hallow
Evening" which means "holy night". At that time, November 1st was called "All Saints' Day"
（万圣日）; and people honored all the saints who did not have their own special day.
People believed that all the spirits of dead people were active on the night of October 31st.
So people would play all sorts of tricks on each other.
Black is one of the traditional Halloween colors probably because Halloween festivals and
traditions took place at night. Pumpkins are a symbol of Halloween, so orange has become
the other traditional Halloween color. Making lanterns out of pumpkins is a Halloween
custom.
Halloween is great fun for children. They dress up as ghosts（鬼）or witches（女巫）.
Small children go "Trick-or-treating". They wear costumes, knock on doors, and shout, "Trick
or Treat!" People almost always choose to give them candy as a treat, instead of choosing to
receive a trick from the children. Adults sometimes "trick or treat" their friends, too. Usually
the "treat" is a glass of wine or some small gifts.
（1）Halloween started several centuries ago in America.______
（2）People thought that all the spirits of dead people were active on the night of October
31st.______
（3）Black and brown are the traditional halloween color.______
（4）Children had great fun on Halloween.______
（5）Adults usually treat their friends with a glass of wine or some small gifts.______
"Depend on yourself" is what natures says to every man. Parents can help you. Teachers can
help you. Others still can help you. But all these only help you to help yourself.
There have been many great men in history. But many of them were very poor in childhood,

and had uncles, aunts or friends to help them. They couldn't depend on them for education.
They saw how it was and began to work with their efforts. To know something, they worked
their own way up to fame（荣誉）.
One of the most famous teachers in England used to tell his pupils, "I can't make worthy men
of you, but I can help you make yourselves useful men."
Some young men can never do things successfully if they don't see their weak points and
change their courses（做法）. They are nothing now, and will be nothing as long as they
live, if they don't follow the advice of their parents and teachers, and depend on their own
efforts.

the text. When we meet problems, we can't solve by ourselves. We always write them down
in our notebooks.
In class, we sit in groups to discuss the problems freely. The teacher always offers help when

we need. After discussion, it's time for us to give a report to the class. We also make
conversations in pairs and practice a lot. It's really good for our listening and speaking. After
class, we have less homework now so we can go to the library to read English books,

One evening I visited the English corner of our town. It is near our school. Every evening,
many people go there to practice their English, but I never went there before. When I arrived,
many people were already there. I looked around and found that most of them were
students. Some of them talked in English in twos and threes. To my surprise, I found three
foreigners talking and smiling with some students who listened with great interest. Just then,
a tall student came to me and asked, "Shall we talk in English?" My heart beat fast at that
moment because it was the first time for me to visit the English comer. Anyway, I said "Yes."
Soon we talked freely about our studies, lives, hobbies and our problems of learning English.
Time went very fast, and it was already 11 o'clock when I realized. I said goodbye to the tall
student John and went home. I enjoyed myself there and was glad to learn a lot. I
understood the famous saying "Practice makes perfect."
