December 25th is Christmas Day.Many Americans are busy with Christmas and the winter
holiday season.Buying a Christmas tree is one important part of the holiday.Christmas trees come in all shapes(形状)and sizes.Maybe the most famous is the large Christmas tree near the White House in Washington,D.C.If you believe that Christmas trees come from forests(森林),you are wrong;most trees are carefully grown on farms.Farmers plant and sell Christmas trees just as they grow fruits or vegetables.About thirty—three million Christmas trees are sold in North America each year.It can take as many as fifteen years to grow a tree as high as two meters,but the growing time is usually seven years.Farmers care for the young trees until they are about three to five years old.Then farmers plant them again in fields.Farmers cut the highest part of the trees when they do not want them to grow too fast.They also cut other parts of the trees while the trees are growing.This gives the trees the shape that people will like.
Americans are happy with Christmas gifts.
A.Right
B.Wrong
C.Doesn’t say
12月25日是圣诞节。许多美国人忙着过圣诞节和冬天的节日。买圣诞树是圣诞节的一个重要习俗。圣诞树有各种形状和大小。或许,最著名的圣诞树要数华盛顿白宫附近的大型圣诞树。如果你相信圣诞树都来自森林,那你就错了。大多数圣诞树都是在农场悉心培植的。就像农民们种水果和蔬菜一样,他们种植并销售圣诞树。每年有近3,300万颗圣诞树在北美地区出售。一颗树要生长到2米高需要l5年的时间。但是生长时间通常为7年。在小树苗成长的头3到5年里,农民们小心栽植。然后再将这些树移栽到田野里。为了防止树木长势过快,农民们会砍下树木最高的枝干。在树木生长的同时,他们还会砍下其他的枝干。这会使树木长成人们希望的形状。
句意:美国人很高兴收到圣诞礼物。是非题。文章主要介绍圣诞树及其种植情况,没有提及圣诞礼物,也没提及美国人对圣诞礼物的态度。故选C。
