课文三维剖析
25 Sep 9月25日 Next week I'm travelling to Australia to visit a friend1 there over the school holidays．I plan to keep this blog2 to record my experiences and3 what I learn． I have already done some research on the country． Located to the south4 of the equator， below many other countries on the globe， it's often informally referred to as “down under”． 1动词不定式短语作目的状语 2动词不定式短语作宾语 3连接my__experiences和what引导的宾语从句 4过去分词短语作原因状语
趁学校放假，我打算下周去澳大利亚看望那里的一位朋友。我计划用这个博客记录我的所见所闻。我对澳大利亚做了一番研究。(澳大利亚)位于赤道以南，并在地球上很多国家的下方，它常被非正式地称为“down under”。
I have also read about some iconic sites， such as5 the Sydney Opera House and the Great Ocean Road， and animals like the cute koalas and kangaroos． I can't wait to see all of them! However， as6 I major in social studies， I'm more interested in meeting people in Australia and7 experiencing their culture， food， and way of life． 5介词短语作定语 6引导原因状语从句 7连接两个动名词短语，作介词in的宾语
我也看了一些标志性景点的介绍，比如悉尼歌剧院和大洋路，还有可爱的考拉和袋鼠等动物的资料。我迫不及待想见到所有这一切！不过，因为我主修社会研究，所以我对结识澳大利亚人并体验他们的文化、饮食和生活方式更感兴趣。
1 Oct 10月1日 I'm here in Sydney! Since8 I arrived， my friend has brought me to my first open air barbecue and9 has also shared many different but yummy meals with me， so10 my first impressions of Australia have been all about food! A lot of typical Australian food， such as the Sunday roast， is originally British． Bakeries， fast food joints， butcher shops， cafes， and restaurants everywhere provide some of the premier food experiences in the world． The influence of Asian cultures， on the other hand， led to the introduction of bean curd and Asian herbs， along withF11 Australian versions of foods like the Chinese inspired dim sim． 8引导时间状语从句 9连接has__brought和has__shared两个并列谓语 10连接并列句，表示结果 11介词短语作状语
我在悉尼啦！自我来这儿之后，朋友就带着我去吃了这辈子第一次的露天烧烤，还和我分享了许多风格各异的美味佳肴，所以我对澳大利亚的第一印象就是美食！很多澳大利亚的特色美食都源自英国，比如星期日烤肉。随处可见的面包店、快餐连锁店、肉店、咖啡馆和餐馆提供世界顶级的美食体验。另一方面，受亚洲文化的影响，除了灵感源自中国的点心等澳大利亚版的食物以外，还引入了豆腐和(用于调味的)亚洲药草。
3 Oct 10月3日 My friend and I have arrived in Katherine， a town in Australia's Northern Territory． We're here to learn about the life and12 customs of the Aborigines， who13 are native to Australia． The Aboriginal population might be small， but its influence is still visible． For example， “Bondi” in “Bondi Beach” is an Aboriginal word meaning “water breaking over rocks” 14． 12连接两个名词(短语)，作介词about的宾语 13引导非限制性定语从句，解释说明先行词the__Aborigines 14现在分词短语作后置定语
我和朋友来到了澳大利亚北领地的凯瑟琳小镇。我们此行的目的是了解土著人的生活和习俗，他们是澳大利亚的原住民。土著人的人口可能很少，但其影响依旧可见。例如，“邦迪海滩”中的“邦迪”就是一个土著词汇，意思是“拍打着岩石的海浪(声)”。
To survive in this vast land on the ocean15， the Aborigines had to be in close contact with nature． This shows in their music， too， which16 celebrates the natural world and the spiritual world around them． Most of their musical instruments are really just sticks found on the ground， among which17 there is an amazing instrument called the didgeridoo． 15动词不定式短语作目的状语 16引导非限制性定语从句，解释说明先行词music 17“介词＋which”引导非限制性定语从句，解释说明先行词sticks
为了在大洋中这片辽阔的土地上生存，澳大利亚土著人得和大自然保持密切的联系。这也体现在他们的音乐中。这些音乐歌颂身边的自然世界，以及围绕着他们的精神世界。他们绝大多数的乐器其实就是地上找到的树枝，其中就有一种令人惊叹的、叫作迪吉里杜管的乐器。
The didgeridoo is made from a tree branch which is hollow． To play the didgeridoo， you put your mouth on one end and18 blow while vibrating your lips19． Unlike a horn， there are no finger holes． The didgeridoo player has to change the shape of his mouth in order to change pitch． A skilled player can play for a long time without stopping to breathe20． He does this by continually breathing in through his nose while breathing out through his mouth and into the didgeridoo． I tried to learn how to play it， but21 after trying for hours， I was convinced that22 I could never make a musical sound with this instrument! 18连接put和blow两个并列谓语 19“while＋现在分词短语”作时间状语 20“without＋动名词短语”作状语 21连接两个表示转折关系的并列句 22引导宾语从句
迪吉里杜管由空心的树干制成。吹奏迪吉里杜管时，把嘴巴靠在一端，一边吹气，一边振动嘴唇。与喇叭不同，迪吉里杜管没有指孔。吹奏迪吉里杜管必须靠改变嘴形才能改变音高。一名娴熟的演奏者可以长时间吹奏，不用停下来换气。演奏者可以不停地用鼻子吸气，同时通过嘴巴吐气，吹入迪吉里杜管中。我试着学习吹奏方法，但经过好几个小时的努力，我只能确信我永远都无法用这个乐器发出乐声！
6 Oct 10月6日 It's almost time for me to say goodbye to Australia． I've enjoyed my time here very much． After being here for a while23， my biggest impression is the complicated mix of peoples and cultures that24 make up the nation． Although25 the main cultural influence since 1788 has been Western culture， minority cultures have also played a part in shaping the unique Australian culture， with many of the new cultural influences contributed26 by immigrants． It is said that27 now nearly half of all Australian citizens were either born overseas or have parents who28 were born overseas． 23“after＋动名词短语”作时间状语 24引导定语从句，修饰先行词peoples__and__cultures 25引导让步状语从句 26 with的复合结构，“with ＋名词＋过去分词”作状语 27 It为形式主语，that引导的从句为真正的主语 28引导定语从句，修饰先行词parents
差不多是我跟澳大利亚说再见的时候了。我在这里过得十分愉快。在这里住了一段时间之后，我最深刻的印象就是不同种族和文化的交融构成了这个国家。尽管自1788年以来，主要的文化影响是西方文化，但少数族裔文化在塑造独特的澳大利亚文化方面也发挥了作用，还有许多随着移民而来的新文化的影响。据说现在近一半的澳大利亚公民要么自己出生于海外，要么父母出生于海外。
Personally speaking29， what30 I like most about Australia is the people themselves． They have a straightforward and free and easy attitude towards life， and31 their friendliness and warmth made me feel at home wherever32 I went． 29作插入语 30引导主语从句，在从句中作like的宾语 31连接两个并列句 32引导地点状语从句
对我个人来说，澳大利亚让我最喜欢的就是这里的人民。他们对待生活的态度简单直率、随性洒脱，他们的友善和热情让我无论走到哪里都有宾至如归的感觉。
After experiencing Australia， I have to say that33 I agree with the tourism slogan: “There's nothing like Australia．” 33引导宾语从句
在游历了澳大利亚之后，我得说我十分赞同他们的旅游口号：“澳大利亚，尽是不同。”

Have a sky high supper
Combine dining with the views from Burj Khalifa (迪拜塔) by booking a table at At． Mosphere on the 122nd floor． The observation area is just above this restaurant， where you'll enjoy the incredible views with fewer crowds． And with cuisine described as “top drawer”， it is sure to be lunch， afternoon tea or dinner you'll never forget．
Swim above the city
Have a refreshing swim at Aura Skypool， which offers 360 degree views from 50 floors up． From here， the Palm (棕榈岛) and the sea sparkles become clear to see． In addition to its daytime sessions， it hosts sunrise swims and early morning yoga， as well as night bookings until 11 pm．
Enjoy the beach
Steal sunshine on the white sands of Kite Beach， with its views of another symbol of Dubai's skyline: the sail shaped Burj AI Arab (阿拉伯塔酒店)． The beach is free to visit in the daytime． Alternatively， Kitesurf School Dubai offers a variety of sea sports in the afternoon．

(2024·安徽省阜阳第一中学高二下月考)Bright and early on the morning of our first full day in Antarctica， L' Austral's Captain Fabien's voice woke us up as it came through a loudspeaker． If we looked outside right now， he said， we'd see a beautiful sea of icebergs in the golden sunlight． My sister and I jumped out of bed， staring in amazement as we sailed past giant pieces of ice． In the distance， we spotted a group of humpback whales feeding on smaller fishes． Next door， my parents were also waking up to the sights of a new day in Antarctica． Over breakfast， my sister and I excitedly told them about the whales we saw from our room that morning．
You might not immediately think of “family vacation” when talking about a trip to Antarctica， but tour companies like Adventures by Disney are changing that． The company offers guided group trips to destinations across all seven continents in the world．
Our adventure started when we flew to Buenos Aires and explored the beautiful Argentine capital for a day． After leaving Buenos Aires， we flew to Ushuaia on an Adventures by Disney plane． Then， it was the journey toward the Drake Passage． After a speedy Drake Passage crossing， we reached Antarctica early， adding a half day to our scheduled four days on and around the continent．
To those unfamiliar with Adventures by Disney， the fact that you can experience Antarctica—the most distant， extreme continent—with Disney might be surprising． During the trip， there were thoughtful acts， from stamped postcards to send from an Antarctica post office to a champagne party on our final stop of the journey; Adventures by Disney truly thought of everything for us． Antarctica is a life changing destination packed with experiences that can't be copied． We experienced seasickness when travelling across the Drake Passage， hiked up ice hills alongside lovely animals， and had a taste of champagne． And honestly， it's going to be hard for the next family trip we may take to compete．

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。
(2024·江苏省泰州市联盟校高二下月考)Last summer vacation， I traveled to Sanya in Hainan， China． When my dad told me one of the items on the journey would be one of the highest water slides (水上滑梯) in Asia， I asked my dad repeatedly whether I could stay at home． But my dad said that I would love it and we should go together．
Three days later， I was standing in front of that water slide in Atlantics Waterpark． The slide was located in a building． When I looked up at the tens of thousands of stairs leading to the peak of the building， I thought to myself， “If I fall from that place， I will definitely die．”
As we started climbing the stairs， I saw three words on the wall: Leap of Faith． I had never heard of these words， and at that time they reminded me of Road to Death． Five meters， ten meters ．．． I looked down and thought， “I am going to die today．” Fifteen meters， twenty meters ．．． I thought about the many things I hadn't done and asked my dad whether I had life insurance． Twenty five meters， thirty meters ．．． and we were finally at the top， ready to jump into the slide． I looked at the three people next to me and thought， “These are the last three people I will see in my life．”
Suddenly， the teenage boy ahead of me stopped in front of the slide and turned around， “Look down there． If we fall into the shark tank， we will be eaten by those hungry sharks．” We all paused and looked down at the shark tank above the slide tunnel． Just then， a younger boy next to me said， “Excuse me， if you don't want to go now， I will go first．” Then he walked past the teenage boy and me and jumped into the slide， disappearing in an instant．
My father said to me jokingly， “Look， that boy is not even half of your height． Come on， Selina． You can do it．” The teenager turned and stared at me too， “Now， you go first．”
注意：
1．续写词数应为150个左右；
2．请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
With a deep breath， I stepped closer to the edge of the slide． 　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 A moment later， my father came down．　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　
写前导读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者去海南三亚旅游，父亲鼓励作者玩那里亚洲最高的水上滑梯，作者非常害怕，在父亲的鼓励下，作者大胆尝试水上滑梯了吗？此次经历后，作者有什么感悟？
[精彩范文]
With a deep breath， I stepped closer to the edge of the slide． The sunlight reflected off the water below， making it seem both inviting and threatening． I closed my eyes， crossed my legs， wrapped my arms around myself， and took that “Leap of Faith”． Initially， the drop was terrifying， and I could feel my heart racing． As I swung through the slide's twists and turns， fear became a thrill of excitement． It took me only several seconds to get to the bottom of the slide， marking the end of the highest water slide adventure in Asia．
A moment later， my father came down． There was a note of excitement on his face． The teenage boy from before， who had warned me about the sharks， arrived next， wearing a victorious smile． We exchanged wide eyed glances， both recalling the exciting journey we had just conquered． It was a moment of shared success， and my initial unwillingness had transformed into an unforgettable adventure． That day， I learned that everything we want could be on the other side of fear， and in a moment like this， I'd better take a leap of faith．

(2024·福建省泉港第五中学等五校高二下期中)With office developers competing for space and height—just to make a statement， the age of the iconic office building is upon us． Let's start by exploring what “iconic” actually means．
Google the word “iconic” and the definitions include something that is “famous”， “popular” or representative of “particular opinions or a particular time”． The term can also be applied to something that is representative of something else—for instance， the Eiffel Tower is a symbol of Paris．
In architecture， an iconic design is usually a design that is “ground breaking” and one that sets new standards in its field． It is a design that other designers and manufacturers follow， as it becomes a benchmark for other similar products． Furthermore， an iconic design is one that stands up to the test of time， remaining a good design， despite the passing of years， decades and even centuries．
Lord Norman Foster has certainly had a say in the rise of these distinctive structures over the past 15 years． His architectural firm Foster & Partners designed the Gherkin (30 St Mary Axe)， whose completion in 2001 sparked the birth of London's new skyline， taking over the previous one—Britannic Tower． Lord Foster also led the redesign of Wembley Stadium and the Millennium Bridge—globally recognized structures in their own right．
Unusually shaped structures have been around since the Pyramids， but before computers， architectural designs were hand drawn and， consequently， landmark buildings were much more conventional in their nature． Since then， digital technology has moved forward at such a rate that it has pushed us into a new era of architectural innovation．
Whatever your views on these high rise developments， they have turned the London skyline into an exciting， ever changing landscape and， in the process， redefined the concept of an iconic building． But we will still be talking about them a century from now—as we do the Empire State Building—or will another new wave of office blocks simply take their place
篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了标志性建筑的概念。
1．What is the feature of an iconic architecture
A．It is always changing．
B．It needs constant testing．
C．It has pioneering and distinctive designs．
D．It follows the standards that were set earlier．
答案：C
解析：推理判断题。根据第三段中的“In architecture ．．． in its field．”可知，标志性建筑的设计具有“突破性”，并在其领域中树立新的标准，由此可推知，标志性建筑的设计具有开创性和独特性。故选C。
2．What promoted the development of architectural innovation
A．Digital technology．
B．Architectural theory．
C．Curiosity about pyramids．
D．Accidental moves by talented designers．
答案：A
解析：细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“Since then ．．． architectural innovation．”可知，数字技术推动了建筑创新的发展。故选A。
3．What does the underlined word “sparked” in Paragraph 4 probably mean
A．Got rid of． B．Brought about．
C．Gave way to． D．Conflicted with．
答案：B
解析：词义猜测题。根据画线词上文“His architectural firm ．．． in 2001”以及下文“the birth of ．．． Britannic Tower”可知，他的建筑公司Foster & Partners设计了St Mary Axe 30号，这取代了之前的不列颠塔，导致了伦敦新天际线的诞生，由此可推知，画线词意为“引起，导致”，与brought about同义。故选B。
4．What's the author's attitude towards the iconic office buildings in London
A．Positive． B．Negative．
C．Concerned． D．Pessimistic．
答案：A
解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Whatever your views ．．． redefined the concept of an iconic building．”可知，作者认为这些标志性建筑将伦敦的天际线调整为一个令人兴奋、不断变化的景观，由此可推知，作者对伦敦标志性的办公大楼持积极态度。故选A。

Our guide is Céline， a French woman． “The prediction is clouds tonight，” she tells us． “But you never know， so we will still be __3__．”
After about 20 minutes， the bus __4__ at Aurora(极光) Village， a collection of small buildings beside a frozen lake． Getting off the bus， I couldn't help __5__ from foot to foot．
Minutes after， the clouds __6__． “Is that it？” someone asks， pointing at a small dome (圆顶) of brightness on the horizon． The aurora follows its own __7__ schedule， and tourism runs on expectations stimulated by travel websites． Thousands of __8__ photos of emerald green and ruby red arcs (弧线) make false __9__． So I’ve tried to keep my own expectations __10__ bound．
Over about 20 minutes， however， a cloud __11__ into a fine white arc stretching across the sky， brightening until it is a river of pearl． Céline and I lie back on a pile of __12__， watching the glowing track cross the sky like a painter's __13__．

1．A．bathing B．eating

解析：根据后文“and walked out， it's 9 pm”可知，作者要去看极光，所以是穿好衣服出门。故选D。
2．A．formal B．fancy

C．careful D．regretful
解析：根据前文“The prediction is clouds tonight”和“But you never know， so we will still be”可知，前后文存在转折关系，此处表示天气是未知的，所以还是有希望看到极光的。故选A。

Dubai， make your day!
Thanks to global connections， Dubai has become an ideal destination for refreshing yourself． Here’s how to plan a one day trip with wow factors．
Have a sky high supper
Combine dining with the views from Burj Khalifa (迪拜塔) by booking a table at At． Mosphere on the 122nd floor． The observation area is just above this restaurant， where you'll enjoy the incredible views with fewer crowds． And with cuisine described as “top drawer”， it is sure to be lunch， afternoon tea or dinner you'll never forget．
Swim above the city
Have a refreshing swim at Aura Skypool， which offers 360 degree views from 50 floors up． From here， the Palm (棕榈岛) and the sea sparkles become clear to see． In addition to its daytime sessions， it hosts sunrise swims and early morning yoga， as well as night bookings until 11 pm．
Enjoy the beach
Steal sunshine on the white sands of Kite Beach， with its views of another symbol of Dubai's skyline: the sail shaped Burj AI Arab (阿拉伯塔酒店)． The beach is free to visit in the daytime． Alternatively， Kitesurf School Dubai offers a variety of sea sports in the afternoon．
Photograph that skyline
Aperture Photos Tours arrange for a local photographer to guide you to capture breathtaking views from the “Vertical Forest” being built in Downtown to Dubai Marina (迪拜码头)． The tours are private and available in the afternoon; all you need is a camera and a head for heights．

(2024·安徽省阜阳第一中学高二下月考)Bright and early on the morning of our first full day in Antarctica， L‘ Austral’s Captain Fabien’s voice woke us up as it came through a loudspeaker． If we looked outside right now， he said， we’d see a beautiful sea of icebergs in the golden sunlight． My sister and I jumped out of bed， staring in amazement as we sailed past giant pieces of ice． In the distance， we spotted a group of humpback whales feeding on smaller fishes． Next door， my parents were also waking up to the sights of a new day in Antarctica． Over breakfast， my sister and I excitedly told them about the whales we saw from our room that morning．
You might not immediately think of “family vacation” when talking about a trip to Antarctica， but tour companies like Adventures by Disney are changing that． The company offers guided group trips to destinations across all seven continents in the world．
Our adventure started when we flew to Buenos Aires and explored the beautiful Argentine capital for a day． After leaving Buenos Aires， we flew to Ushuaia on an Adventures by Disney plane． Then， it was the journey toward the Drake Passage． After a speedy Drake Passage crossing， we reached Antarctica early， adding a half day to our scheduled four days on and around the continent．
To those unfamiliar with Adventures by Disney， the fact that you can experience Antarctica—the most distant， extreme continent—with Disney might be surprising． During the trip， there were thoughtful acts， from stamped postcards to send from an Antarctica post office to a champagne party on our final stop of the journey; Adventures by Disney truly thought of everything for us． Antarctica is a life changing destination packed with experiences that can’t be copied． We experienced seasickness when travelling across the Drake Passage， hiked up ice hills alongside lovely animals， and had a taste of champagne． And honestly， it’s going to be hard for the next family trip we may take to compete．

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。
(2024·江苏省泰州市联盟校高二下月考)Last summer vacation， I traveled to Sanya in Hainan， China． When my dad told me one of the items on the journey would be one of the highest water slides (水上滑梯) in Asia， I asked my dad repeatedly whether I could stay at home． But my dad said that I would love it and we should go together．
Three days later， I was standing in front of that water slide in Atlantics Waterpark． The slide was located in a building． When I looked up at the tens of thousands of stairs leading to the peak of the building， I thought to myself， “If I fall from that place， I will definitely die．”
As we started climbing the stairs， I saw three words on the wall: Leap of Faith． I had never heard of these words， and at that time they reminded me of Road to Death． Five meters， ten meters … I looked down and thought， “I am going to die today．” Fifteen meters， twenty meters … I thought about the many things I hadn‘t done and asked my dad whether I had life insurance． Twenty five meters， thirty meters … and we were finally at the top， ready to jump into the slide． I looked at the three people next to me and thought， “These are the last three people I will see in my life．”
Suddenly， the teenage boy ahead of me stopped in front of the slide and turned around， “Look down there． If we fall into the shark tank， we will be eaten by those hungry sharks．” We all paused and looked down at the shark tank above the slide tunnel． Just then， a younger boy next to me said， “Excuse me， if you don't want to go now， I will go first．” Then he walked past the teenage boy and me and jumped into the slide， disappearing in an instant．
My father said to me jokingly， “Look， that boy is not even half of your height． Come on， Selina． You can do it．” The teenager turned and stared at me too， “Now， you go first．”
注意：
1．续写词数应为150个左右；
2．请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
With a deep breath， I stepped closer to the edge of the slide． ﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍
A moment later， my father came down．﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍
写前导读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者去海南三亚旅游，父亲鼓励作者玩那里亚洲最高的水上滑梯，作者非常害怕，在父亲的鼓励下，作者大胆尝试水上滑梯了吗？此次经历后，作者有什么感悟？
[精彩范文]
With a deep breath， I stepped closer to the edge of the slide． The sunlight reflected off the water below， making it seem both inviting and threatening． I closed my eyes， crossed my legs， wrapped my arms around myself， and took that “Leap of Faith”． Initially， the drop was terrifying， and I could feel my heart racing． As I swung through the slide’s twists and turns， fear became a thrill of excitement． It took me only several seconds to get to the bottom of the slide， marking the end of the highest water slide adventure in Asia．
A moment later， my father came down． There was a note of excitement on his face． The teenage boy from before， who had warned me about the sharks， arrived next， wearing a victorious smile． We exchanged wide eyed glances， both recalling the exciting journey we had just conquered． It was a moment of shared success， and my initial unwillingness had transformed into an unforgettable adventure． That day， I learned that everything we want could be on the other side of fear， and in a moment like this， I’d better take a leap of faith．

(2024·福建省泉港第五中学等五校高二下期中)With office developers competing for space and height—just to make a statement， the age of the iconic office building is upon us． Let's start by exploring what “iconic” actually means．
Google the word “iconic” and the definitions include something that is “famous”， “popular” or representative of “particular opinions or a particular time”． The term can also be applied to something that is representative of something else—for instance， the Eiffel Tower is a symbol of Paris．
In architecture， an iconic design is usually a design that is “ground breaking” and one that sets new standards in its field． It is a design that other designers and manufacturers follow， as it becomes a benchmark for other similar products． Furthermore， an iconic design is one that stands up to the test of time， remaining a good design， despite the passing of years， decades and even centuries．
Lord Norman Foster has certainly had a say in the rise of these distinctive structures over the past 15 years． His architectural firm Foster & Partners designed the Gherkin (30 St Mary Axe)， whose completion in 2001 sparked the birth of London’ s new skyline， taking over the previous one—Britannic Tower． Lord Foster also led the redesign of Wembley Stadium and the Millennium Bridge—globally recognized structures in their own right．
Unusually shaped structures have been around since the Pyramids， but before computers， architectural designs were hand drawn and， consequently， landmark buildings were much more conventional in their nature． Since then， digital technology has moved forward at such a rate that it has pushed us into a new era of architectural innovation．
Whatever your views on these high rise developments， they have turned the London skyline into an exciting， ever changing landscape and， in the process， redefined the concept of an iconic building． But we will still be talking about them a century from now—as we do the Empire State Building—or will another new wave of office blocks simply take their place
篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了标志性建筑的概念。
1．What is the feature of an iconic architecture
A．It is always changing．
B．It needs constant testing．
C．It has pioneering and distinctive designs．
D．It follows the standards that were set earlier．
解析：推理判断题。根据第三段中的“In architecture ... in its field．”可知，标志性建筑的设计具有“突破性”，并在其领域中树立新的标准，由此可推知，标志性建筑的设计具有开创性和独特性。故选C。
2．What promoted the development of architectural innovation
A．Digital technology．
B．Architectural theory．
C．Curiosity about pyramids．
D．Accidental moves by talented designers．
解析：细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“Since then ... architectural innovation．”可知，数字技术推动了建筑创新的发展。故选A。
3．What does the underlined word “sparked” in Paragraph 4 probably mean
A．Got rid of． B．Brought about．
C．Gave way to． D．Conflicted with．
解析：词义猜测题。根据画线词上文“His architectural firm ... in 2001”以及下文“the birth of ... Britannic Tower”可知，他的建筑公司Foster & Partners设计了St Mary Axe 30号，这取代了之前的不列颠塔，导致了伦敦新天际线的诞生，由此可推知，画线词意为“引起，导致”，与brought about同义。故选B。
4．What's the author's attitude towards the iconic office buildings in London
A．Positive． B．Negative．
C．Concerned． D．Pessimistic．
解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Whatever your views ... redefined the concept of an iconic building．”可知，作者认为这些标志性建筑将伦敦的天际线调整为一个令人兴奋、不断变化的景观，由此可推知，作者对伦敦标志性的办公大楼持积极态度。故选A。
