Language points
1 There are many different landscapes around the world…
landscape /'l ndske p/ n. 风景；景色
e.g. The landscape here is very beautiful. 这里的风景很美丽。
Jim likes to see different kinds of landscapes.
吉姆喜欢看不同种类的风景。
landscape 意为“风景；景色”时，为不可数名词，强调“自然的”景色。当强调“风景”的种类时，为可数名词。
2 I want to travel the world one day.
one day 有一天
e.g. One day, I met my old friend on the way to the park.
一天，我在去公园的路上遇到了我的老朋友。
I’d like to visit the Summer Palace one/some day.
我想有朝一日去游览颐和园。
one day 表示将来的某一天时，可与some day 互换。
one day 与some day one day 指将来的某一天，用于一般将来时或表示将来的句子中
指过去的某一天，用于一般过去时中
some day 指将来的某一天，用于一般将来时或表示将来的句子中
辨析：
3 It’s about 6,000 kilometres long.
6,000 kilometres long 6 000千米长；“基数词+单位名词+长/宽/高/深/厚等形容词”表示“多长/宽/高/深/厚”等。
e.g. The well is one hundred metres deep.这口井有100 米深。
4 ①It would be amazing to climb the Great Wall.
②It would be exciting to stand right next to the waterfalls.
It+ be + adj. + to do sth. “做某事是……的。”，两句均用到了“It +be +adj. + to do sth.”句型,其中It是形式主语,真正的主语是后面的动词不定式(短语)。该句型可与“Doing sth. + be +adj.”进行同义转换。
e.g. It is interesting to play ping-pong.
= Playing ping-pong is interesting.
打乒乓球很有趣。
exciting / k'sa t / adj.使人激动的;令人兴奋的
【辨】exciting 与excited
exciting “使人激动的；令人兴奋的”常用于修饰物,表示事物本身具有的特点。
excited “兴奋的；激动的”，常用于描述人,表示人的主观感受。be excited at/about (doing) sth.对(做)……感到兴奋
