6. (A) spring (B) summer (C) fall (D) winter

7. (A) be (B) has (C) is (D) have

答案：

1. (C)，They are. 是 The trees in Canada are really beautiful ... 的省略。
(D) They do. 則是指 People tell me that ...，但由後句可推知 Wendy 有看過樹葉變色，而人們有沒有告訴Jed這件事，Wendy 應該是不可能知道，所以不能選 (D)。

2. (B)，間接問句用的是一般直述句型。其他均為疑問詞 S + V。

3. (C)，按文意，應該是「停止生產 (stop + V-ing)」葉綠素，而不是「停下來去生產(stop to + 原形V)」葉綠素。

4. (A)，where ... come from (...從哪裡來的)。
(A) come from (來自於) (B) come to (到達) (C) come up (前來) (D) come about (發生)

5. (D)，indoor，outdoor 是形容詞。indoors，outdoors是副詞。
用副詞修飾動詞 spend；另外，欣賞樹葉一定要在「戶外(outdoors)」進行。

6. (D)，前一句提到加拿大人在秋天花很多時間待在戶外，他們要在「冬天」樹葉掉光前欣賞戶外的自然之美。

7. (A)，be fun 的主詞是人或事，意思是「有趣、好玩」；have fun 的主詞是人或物。意思是「玩得開心」。依文意，應選 be。
