And soon the idea spread to other cities all over the country.”隨著時間的推移，向弱勢群體傳播歡樂的最甜蜜的一天的想法被擴(kuò)大到包括所有人，并成為用善意的行為或小小的紀(jì)念來紀(jì)念他人的一個場合。故選B。根據(jù)第三段中的“He did this through the distribution(分發(fā)) of small gift”以及“In time, the Sweetest Day idea of spreading cheer to the underprivileged(弱勢群體)was broadened to include everyone, and became an occasion for remembering others with a kind act or a small remembrance.”可知，慶祝甜蜜日可以通過送小禮物，小小的紀(jì)念品或者善意的行為。故選C。s orphans and shutins (臥病在床的人) too often felt forgotten and neglected, formed the idea of showing them that they were remembered.” 60多年前，一個克利夫蘭人認(rèn)為，這個城市的孤兒和被關(guān)在家里的人常常感到被遺忘和忽視，于是產(chǎn)生了這樣一個想法：讓他們知道，他們被人記掛著。 （2）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第一段中的“It is a holiday that is gaining in popularity every year throughout the country.”可知，甜蜜日是一個在全國每年都越來越受歡迎的節(jié)日。s friends and neighbors, he got a small remembrance 60 years ago, a man too often felt forgotten and neglected people loved to be remembered by others on Sweetest Day in Cleveland【答案】 （1）A（2）C（3）B（4）A 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文，介紹了美國的甜蜜日。s orphans and shutins city named Cleveland 60 years ago man who cared orphans and shutins man39。Sweetest Day is not based on any single group39。Over 60 years ago, a Cleveland man, believing that the city39。 Sweetest Day is always the third Saturday in October.
