答案与解析

第一部分：选择题

1. C. "Nice to meet you."

   • 解析： "How are you?" (你好吗？) 也是一种问候，但 "Nice to meet you." (很高兴认识你) 是初次见面时更常用、更礼貌的表达，A 和 D 是问题，不是问候语。

2. C. Christmas gifts

   • 解析： 圣诞老人被认为是圣诞礼物的赠送者，复活节彩蛋是复活节的，万圣节糖果是万圣节的，红包是中国的春节传统。

3. A. October 31st

   • 解析： 万圣节是每年的10月31日，11月1日是万圣节（All Saints' Day），12月25日是圣诞节，2月14日是情人节。

4. B. Thanksgiving

   • 解析： 感恩节是源于北美早期移民感谢上帝和印第安人帮助，庆祝丰收的节日，圣诞节是庆祝耶稣诞生的，新年是庆祝新的一年的开始，复活节是庆祝耶稣复活的。

5. B. Eat turkey and give thanks

   • 解析： 吃火鸡是感恩节的传统大餐，而感恩节的核心主题是“感恩”，看烟花是新年或独立日的活动，找彩蛋是复活节，送礼物是圣诞节。

6. C. Red

   • 解析： 红色是情人节最具代表性的颜色，象征着爱情和激情，蓝色通常代表平静，绿色代表自然，黄色代表快乐。

7. C. Keep quiet

   • 解析： 图书馆是需要安静学习的公共场所，保持安静是基本礼仪，大声喧哗、吃东西和奔跑都是不礼貌的行为。

8. B. "Thank you."

   • 解析： 无论是否喜欢礼物，收到礼物后都应该立即表达感谢，这是基本的礼貌，其他选项都非常不礼貌。

9. C. Chocolate eggs

   • 解析： 彩蛋（包括巧克力彩蛋）和复活节兔子是复活节的标志性符号，火鸡是感恩节的，南瓜派是感恩节的，烤牛肉是英式传统菜肴。

    • 解析： 告别时说“再见，待会见！”是最自然、最常用的方式，其他选项都不符合告别场景。
