Places of Interest in Wales
Conway:On the north Wales coast,Conway is where you’ll find the world’s smallest house,as well as a much larger “house”,Conway Castle,which was built in the 13th century.
Anglesey:This beautiful island is joined to the rest of north Wales by a road bridge and a railway bridge,and it’s just a short drive from Conway.Here you can visit the village of Llanfair Pwllgwyngyll which has the strangest name in Europe.Don’t miss the station.The sign runs the complete length of the platform!Also on Anglesey is Beaumaris Castle,which was started in the 13th century and to this day remains unfinished.
Snowdonia:Just a couple of hours’ drive from Beaumaris is the Snowdonia mountain range,which takes its name from the highest mountain in Wales,Mount Snowdon.From there,visit the famous Swallow Falls at nearby Betws-y-Coed.
Portmeirion:In 1925 Clough Williams Ellis bought an attractive piece of Welsh land for less than ￡5,000.He then set out to show the world how a naturally beautiful castle could be built without being damaged and spent the next 50 years building the town of Portmeirion with a style of Italy.

In the far corner of the front yard of a large house in Florida rests an RV—Recreational Vehicle(活动房屋式旅游车),shaded by trees as clothing on a nearby line sways(摇动) in the breeze.In this RV,the National Geographic explorer Thomas Culhane lives with his wife,Enas,almost entirely off the grid—a lifestyle without depending on electricity supply.
Culhane began living off the grid in the late 1990s,when he went into the basement of his apartment building in Los Angeles and pulled out the plug that delivered electricity.Even earlier though,he was first inspired by sustainable living during a trip in 1970 to visit his relatives.He was eight years old and worried that his stay in their small village was going to be miserable because his relatives told him they had no air conditioning or electricity—but they had plenty of fresh fruits from orchards(果园) and lots of cold drinks chilled by the icy stream from the ice caps of the nearby mountain.“That was amazing,” says Culhane.
He met Enas when she was living in an ecovillage in Portugal.Enas said she liked the feeling of being low impact,and being harmless to the earth.Culhane was attracted and fell in love with her.The couple got married,living on the same property that they currently have.They moved into their first home together—an RV which they immediately took completely off-grid.
Inside their RV,Culhane and Enas have hot showers,a working gas stove,a refrigerator,a washing machine and a big screen TV.They use gas created by their on-site biodigesters(生物煮解器) to cook on a gas-powered stove.They also use energy created by the biodigesters to heat their bath water.They feed the biodigesters using their own food waste—at no additional cost to the earth.
Sometimes on weekends,the RV is turned into a classroom.The couple host workshops to let the community members and students know living an off-grid life is getting easier and teach them how to respect and coexist(共存)peacefully with the environment.
24.What does the author intend to do in paragraph 2
A.Add some background information.
B.Summarize the previous paragraph.
C.Provide some advice for the readers.
D.Introduce a new topic for discussion.
25.What attracted Culhane most when he first met Enas
A.Her marriage property.
B.Their common life belief.
C.The beauty of her ecovillage.
D.Her experience of exploration.
26.What do the biodigesters produce
A.Food waste.
B.The additional cost.
C.Greenhouse gases.
D.Alternative(可供替代的) energy.
27.What can be a suitable title for the text
A.An RV Classroom
B.Living off the Grid
C.Getting Close to Nature
D.Protecting the Environment

Gold Coast family holidays are always great fun whether you are from Australia or from abroad.There are beautiful beaches,adventure parks,nature parks and so much more.
There are so many sights to see here.It is a pity to drive in a car and you’ll miss a great part of it.Australia is home to many animals and birds that can only be seen when moving slowly and going into the areas that they live.
When you are on a bicycle,you have the advantage of being able to stop whenever you want to see an interesting animal or bird that you have never seen before.It is a quieter mode(方式) of transportation as well,so you might even be able to take a picture.When you are on the beach,you can breathe that clean air and view the beauty of the water and sand.It is a totally different experience from either simply sunbathing or passing it in a car.
There are many choices of hiring a bicycle to experience the Gold Coast attractions.There are stores that will fit a bike perfectly to your size.These bikes for both adults and children are in many styles and colors to please any taste.If you have ever wanted to try a tandem bike(双人自行车),now is your chance,because they have those too.
A bicycle hire on Gold Coast is something that everyone should try at least once.This is a wonderful chance for anyone who likes to cycle and it is also a cheap way to travel with your family.
28.You’d better not drive in a car on Gold Coast because 　　　.
A.you will break the traffic rules

The endangered pandas in the Qinling Mountains might face a new threat:the loss of their food—bamboo,which makes up 99% of their meals.
Adult pandas spend most part of the day eating bamboo and have to take in at least 40 pounds a day to stay healthy.However,a new study published in Nature Climate Change warned that they may soon find their food gone because most of the bamboo in the Qinling Mountains might disappear by the end of the century as a result of the rising temperature worldwide.
A team made up of researchers from Michigan State University and the Chinese Academy of Sciences has studied the effects of climate change on the bamboo in the Qinling Mountains.They have found that bamboo is very sensitive to climate change.“80% to 100% of the bamboo would be gone if the average temperature increases 3.5 degrees worldwide by the end of the century,” said Liu Jianguo,one of the report’s authors.
He added,“This is how much the temperature would rise by 2100 even if all countries will keep their promises in The Paris Agreement.But you know what is happening around the world.”
In recent years,China has been trying its best to protect the endangered pandas by setting up more and bigger nature reserves.
“But it is far from being enough and the endangered pandas need cooperation from the rest of the world,because their future is not just in the hands of the Chinese,”said Shirley Martin from the World Wildlife Fund but not a member of the team.
There are about 260 pandas in the Qinling Mountains.That is about 13% of the China’s wild panda population.In addition,about 375 are living in research centers and zoos in China.
32.What can we learn from the first paragraph
A.The Qinling Mountains can provide enough bamboo for the pandas.
B.Pandas in the Qinling Mountains are only threatened by the loss of food.
C.Lots of the bamboo in the Qinling Mountains will probably disappear.
D.Pandas have already eaten 99% of the bamboo in the Qinling Mountains.
33.What does Liu Jianguo mean
A.China needs more help from the World Wildlife Fund.
B.It is difficult to control the temperature rise within 3.5℃.
C.Bamboo is sensitive to changes in temperature.
D.China is making great efforts to protect the pandas.
34.How many wild pandas are there in China
A.About 260. B.About 635.
C.About 2,635. D.About 2,000.
35.Which can be the best title for the text
A.The Disappearance of Bamboo
B.Necessity to Change Pandas’ Food
C.A New Threat Faced by the Pandas
D.Efforts Made to Save Pandas

Travelling with friends can be an amazing experience where you could make lifelong memories or it could ruin(毁掉) your friendship.　36　 Here are some rules you should follow to make sure your next trip with friends goes as smoothly as possible.
　37　 Sure,you and your friends probably have some similar interests,but that’s not always the case.In an effort to keep everyone happy,go over travel plans and expectations ahead of time.Have each person categorize(分类) activities or sights into “must-see” “want to see” and “would go if we have time”.Plan accordingly and make sure everyone can see some of their top attractions.
Communicate and respect each other.Everyone has personal preferences when travelling—from getting the bed closest to the bathroom or sitting in the airplane’s window seat.But sometimes things don’t go as you like.In this case,share your requirements directly with your travel companions.　38　 Have a conversation when problems arise,for communication is the key.
Don’t disappear.When travelling with a group—or even just one other person—you may want some alone time.That’s completely fine,but make sure your friends know where you are and have a way of contacting you.　39　
Get off your phone.Of course,your friends will understand if you need to take a call from a family member,or in the event of a work emergency,but other than that,try to stay off your phone.　40　 After all,the appeal of this type of trip is to spend time with friends.Just enjoy it!
A.Anyway,give each other some space.
B.Include at least one activity for everyone.
C.And remember that consideration and respect go a long way.
D.At the same time,listen to their concerns and be respectful of them.
E.Don’t respond to less important work contact or send messages frequently.
F.It’s especially true of travelling in foreign countries or unfamiliar places.
G.So it’s important to make sure you and your friend(s) are on the same page.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
One evening,a workman was exhaustedly making his way home after work.When he stopped to rest by the side of the road,a woman came by,pushing a cart full of flowers.The smell of her blossoms filled the air with sweetness,and it seemed to take away the tiredness in his bones and lift his spirits.He had never experienced such wonder from the many blooms of his own garden.“How much must I pay,or what must I do,to have some of your wonderful flowers ” he asked the woman.
“Oh,sir,” she said,“take what you wish for.”
“What return must I make for them ” he asked again.
“Your gratitude is enough,” she said,“and it’s a pleasure to share the beauty of flowers with you.”
So the man filled his arms with blossoms and hurried joyfully home.His wife and his children were also glad about the remarkable flowers.They also discovered that the sight of them was a delight and the smell of them refreshed the soul.
In order not to lose his valuable possession,the man planted the blossoms in a small plot of land behind his house.Sunlight and water kept them amazingly beautiful—they still performed their fantastic magic.
Every day,his children took delight in playing in the yard and always sang and danced around the flowers.They all liked the lovely gift their father had received and even invited many of their friends to share this fantastic magic together.When children came to play near the flowers,the man over and over warned them against carelessness and wild play for fear that they would walk on the flowers and damage them.But the flowers remained strong as long as there was enough sun and water to nourish(滋养) them.Nowhere else could the man or his wife or children find such remarkable relaxation from tiredness,such comfort in sadness,such spiritual nourishment as those remarkable flowers provided.
With the news spreading and more people coming to appreciate his treasure,the man became even more concerned about his remarkable flowers.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;

He was determined to protect the flowers.

Good morning,ladies and gentlemen,and welcome to our tour.
This morning,we are going to take you to some points of historical interest in the city.If you have any questions,please don’t hesitate to ask.
If you look out of the window on your right,you’ll see the Grange,one of the oldest buildings in the city.It was built for our first mayor 200 years ago,and still has most of the original furniture.Perhaps the most interesting thing is that every Saturday afternoon,you can come and watch them bake bread the way it was done 200 years ago.
On your left is University College.This university building is just 125 years old.We will be stopping in a moment at Bridgeton Castle.The castle was built by Sir Henry Pellat for his young wife.He bought almost all of the building materials from England.Notice the beautiful glass windows.Unfortunately,Sir Henry’s young wife became ill and died before the castle was completed.Sir Henry became so unhappy that he left the castle and returned to England.No family members ever live there.

【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。Culhane和Enas这对夫妇为了给地球减负,不危害地球,在活动房屋式旅游车中过着一种完全不用电的自给自足的生活。他们还举办了研讨会,让社区成员和学生知道,远离电的生活很容易,并教他们如何尊重环境以及与环境和平共处。
24.A　推理判断题。根据第二段第一句可知,Culhane在20世纪90年代末开始过着不用电的生活,当时他住在洛杉矶公寓楼的地下室。故本段主要介绍了Culhane的一次探亲之行启发了他过不用电的生活方式,即为他的环保生活提供了一些背景信息,故选A项。
25.B　推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Enas said she liked the feeling of being low impact,and being harmless to the earth.Culhane was attracted and fell in love with her.”可知,Enas说她喜欢那种对地球影响小、无害的感觉。Culhane被她吸引并爱上了她。再根据文章的内容可知,他们俩都喜欢这种不用电的生活。由此可推断出,当Culhane第一次见到Enas的时候,吸引他的是他们共同的生活理念,故选B项。

27.B　主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第一段最后一句中的“the National Geographic explorer Thomas Culhane lives with his wife,Enas,almost entirely off the grid—a lifestyle without depending on electricity supply.”第二段第一句中的“Culhane began living off the grid in the late 1990s”,和最后一段中的“The couple host workshops to let the community members and students know living an off-grid life is getting easier”等可知,本文主要叙述了Culhane和Enas这对夫妇喜欢完全不用电,住在活动房屋式旅游车中的自给自足的生活。综合全文可知,“Living off the Grid”贯穿全文,故选B项。

写作
第一节
Dear Mum and Dad,
I,your dear daughter,am having great fun going on a vacation in Beijing.Educational as the cultural relics are,I sometimes feel tired of the past history of ancient China as one of the post-2000 generation.However,I feel welcomed by the whole city especially when people here are as friendly as we thought before.What’s more,the weather here is much cooler,at least in summer,which is embodied when the night falls.Moreover,the roads here are broad.Surrounded by a large number of modern constructions,Beijing deserves its state as the capital city of our motherland,China.
Miss you a lot.
Yours,
Li Hua
