Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and required words limit. Write your answers on your answer sheet.
The tasty cream-filled golden sponge(海绵) cakes have been an American favorite for decades. These are just a few of the sugary treats made by the beloved Hostess brand. But after more than 80 years, Americans have to say goodbye to these iconic (标志性的) desserts. Early last week, Hostess announced it is going out of business.
"Many people have worked unbelievably long and hard to keep this from happening," said Hostess CEO Gregory F. Rayburn. "Hostess Brand has no other alternative than to begin the process of getting down and preparing for the sale of our iconic brands." Along with Twinkles (奶油蛋糕) and Wonder Bread, cupcakes and other sugary treats may disappear from the shelves.
In the past decade, Hostess has experienced difficulties with its management and high labor costs. The company had money troubles in the past, but this time there was no way to recover. Along with the loss of sugary treats comes the loss of nearly 20,000 jobs. Hostess fans hope that another company will buy out the Hostess.
The downfall of Hostess is due not just to the company's financial problems, but also to a changing America. Our country's tastes and lifestyles are not the same as they were eighty years ago. Americans have become more health-conscious, and they are demanding more healthful food products. As a manufacturer of high-calorie products, Hostess does not fit into this new way of life.
To make matters worse for Hostess, Americans do not eat as much bread as they once did. "More and more people are choosing one-dish meals," said Harry Balzar. "The tradition of bread as a side dish is going out." Americans are finding alternatives to their morning toast too. Instead they’re choosing quick snacks like yogurt and energy bars.
Will Twinkles become an image of a bygone(过去的) America? Hostess fans hope that it will secure its spot on supermarket shelves for years to come. We can only wait. And maybe eat fruit for dessert instead.

序数词

序数词的概念：

表示顺序的数称为序数词。如：first, second, third, fourth。

序数词的构成与用法：

1、序数词的构成：
①一般来说，是由相应的基数词加词尾th构成。
   例：four＋th→fourth
           six＋th→sixth
           seven＋th→seventh
           ten＋th→tenth
②下面这些基数词在变为序数词时，有特殊的变化。
例：one→first
        two→second
        three→third
        five→fifth
        eight→eighth
        nine→ninth
        twelve→twelfth
③十位整数序数词的构成方法是将基数词的词y变成i，然后再加eth。
例：twenty→twentieth
        thirty→thirtieth
        forty→fortieth
        ninety→ninetieth
④两位或两位以上的基数词变成序数词时，仅将个位数变成序数词。
例：twenty－one→twenty－first
        thirty－five→thirty－fifth
        a hundred and fifty－three→a hundred and fifty－third

2、序数词的用法：
①序数词在使用时，一般加上定冠词。
例：the first book
        the second floor
        the third day
        the fourth week．
②序数词在多数情况下都用作定语，有的也可以作表语、主语和宾语。
例：The may1st is Labour Day. 五月一日是劳动节。
        My room is on the second floor. 我的房间在二楼。
        The first is larger than the secon.（主语）第一个比第二个大。
        Read the book from the first.（宾语）从开头读这本书。
        You'll be the sixth to write.（表语）你将是第六个写的。
③序数词的前面可以加上不定冠词，用来表示“再一”，“又一”的意思。
例：You may have a third try. 你可以第三次尝试。

序数词知识体系：

约数的表达方法：

用tens/dozens/scores/hundreds/thousands/millions of 表示“几十、几百、上千、成千上万”等。
如：The boy bought dozens of pencils.
       Thousands of people died in the earthquake.
注意： (A)：dozen, score, hundred, thousand, million等表示确切数量时，不用复数。
如：five dozen (of) eggs   五打鸡蛋
        hree hundred people 三百个人

分数词的构成和用法：

1）分数词构成法：
分数词（FractionalNumerals）由基数词和序数词构成，基数词代表分子，序数词代表分母。除了分子为1的情况下，序数词都要用复数形式：
如：1/4：one-fourth
        5/9：five-ninths
        2/3：two-thirds
       17/5：three and two-fifths
       7/12：seven-twelfths
       379/8：forty-seven and three-eighths
此外还有下面表示法：
如：1/2：a(one) half
        1/4：a(one) quarter
        3/4：three-quarters
        9/4：two and a quarter
