3.Whether you're up for a Crocodile Dundee adventure or you'd just like a taste of the Australian sun,the beaches in and around Sydney can offer you all that and more.
Sydney Beach 
Sydney Beach is located at Sydney's northernmost tip on an extension(延伸) of land ending at Palm Beach.Before checking out the golden sand,take a quick tour of the houses of millionaires from the art and film industries.
Palm Beach 
Only about an hour from downtown Sydney,Palm Beach offers a long stretch(地段) of clean sand and water.With parking near the center of the beach,that leaves the rest of it as a sparse population and peaceful location from which you can surf or body board-but take care; without the huge crowds of other Sydney beaches,Palm Beach doesn't afford quite the safety level to be found elsewhere; volunteer lifesavers are on duty only on weekends and holidays.
Bondi Beach      
For the big name beach,Bondi Beach has to be your choice.Parking is difficult to find even on slow days,so consider taking public transport to this world-known beach in the eastern Sydney suburbs.Easily reachable by taxi,bus,and rail,Bondi Beach offers sun bathing,swimming,snorkeling,and all sorts of water sports fun.If you're in the mood for a bit of exercise,two scenic coastal walks will afford you great views and sights along the shore.Take in views from Mackenzie's Point.It starts at Bondi and heads south to Bronte Beach.But don't try to swim in Mackenzie's Bay-it holds dangers such as hidden rocks.
Bronte Beach    
Your second choice for a scenic coastal walk covers a little under two miles and takes you from Bronte Beach to Waverly Cemetery,where many famous Australians are buried,including poets Henry Kendall,Doreothea Mackellar,and Henry Lawson.

60.Which of the following shows the right order of the beaches listed from the south to the north?B
A.Palm Beach---Sydney Beach-Bronte Beach-Bondi Beach
B.Bronte Beach-Bondi Beach-Palm Beach---Sydney Beach
C.Sydney Beach-Palm Beach-Bondi Beach---Bronte Beach
D.Bondi Beach-Bronte Beach-Palm Beach---Sydney Beach
61.The underlined word"sparse"probably meansC.
A.large       B.thick          C.thin       D.crowded
62.What can we learn from the passage?A
A.If you want to enjoy a walk,you can choose Bondi Beach or Bronte Beach.
B.If you want to swim in Palm Beach,the safer time is on weekdays and holidays.
C.If you want to visit the famous people's tombs,you can choose Sydney Beach.
D.If you want to visit Palm Beach,the airplane is your best choice.
63.The author intends toD in and around Sydney.
A.show the scenery of the beaches        B.introduce the culture and customs
C.show the activities on the beaches     D.a(chǎn)ttract the visitors to the beaches.

分析 無論你是想體驗(yàn)鱷魚鄧肯的冒險之路,還是想品嘗一下澳大利亞的陽光,悉尼和悉尼周圍的沙灘可以滿足你這些需求,并且還不止這些.

解答 60.B.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.從"Sydney Beach"部分中的"Sydney Beach is located at Sydney's northernmost tip on an extension of land ending at Palm Beach"可知,Sydney Beach在最北段,緊挨著的是Palm Beach.再根據(jù)"Bondi Beach"部分中的"It starts at Bondi and heads south to Bronte Beach."可知,Bronte Beach在它的南邊.故選B.
61.C.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.從"Palm Beach"部分中的"Palm Beach offers a long stretchof clean sand and water"及"without the huge crowds of other Sydney beaches"可知,Palm Beach比較長,空間比較大,因而游客稀少.故這個詞的意思與"thin"相近.故選C.
62.A.推理判斷題.從"Bondi Beach"部分中的"If you're in the mood for a bit of exercise,two scenic coastal walks will afford you great views and sights along the shore."以及"Bronte Beach"部分中的"Your second choice for a scenic coastal walk covers a little under two miles and takes you from Bronte Beach…."可知,這兩個海灘都是散步的好地方.故選A.
63.D.寫作目的題.從文章開頭部分的"….you'd just like a taste of the Australian sun,the beaches in and around Sydney can offer you all that and more"可知,本文的主要目的是想吸引游客到澳大利亞的Sydney周圍的海灘度假.故選D.

點(diǎn)評 考察學(xué)生的細(xì)節(jié)理解和推理判斷能力,做細(xì)節(jié)理解題時一定要找到文章中的原句,和題干進(jìn)行比較,再做出正確的選擇.在做推理判斷題不要以個人的主觀想象代替文章的事實(shí),要根據(jù)文章事實(shí)進(jìn)行合乎邏輯的推理判斷.

13.The Horn of Plenty is one of the largest natural health food stores within the Greater Hamilton area.We are big supporters of buying locally and we are here to tell you why it is so important for   your family,the community and the environment.The concept of buying locally is simple:buy food produced,grown,or raised as close to  your home as possible.Not only will your food be fresher and tastier,but you are helping protect the environment and are supporting businesses within your community and reducing pollution.
Better for the environment
Sustainabilityand global warming are such hot topics at the moment,and  many                 people want to do their bit to help support a healthier environment.Small action carried  out by many people can make a big difference.Most materials in an average North      American meal have traveled about 1,500 miles to get from farm to plate.To cut out a big part of this travel would greatly reduce not only pollution from transportation and       refrigeration but also customers'expenses as well.
Taste and nutritional content
Locally-grown fruits and vegetables are usually sold within 24 hours of being harvested.Because they are picked at the height of ripeness(成熟) and travel only a short distance to the market,their freshness,nutrition,and flavor are kept.Produce trucked in from far away may lose both taste and nutritional content.Community and home values
When you buy direct from a farmer or buy locally-grown foods,you are engaged in a    time-honored tradition between a grower and an eater.You also help keep dollars within your community.
21.It can be inferred from the third paragraph thatC.
A.global warming is the most serious problem now
B.North American food is rich in various kinds of materials
C.the increased cost of transporting food is passed on to the customers
D.most people support buying locally
22.Locally-grown fruits and vegetables taste good mostly becauseA.
A.they are picked when they are fully grown
B.they are not polluted by chemical fertilizer
C.they can be harvested at any time
D.they are sent to the market at a high speed
23.According to the author,when you buy locally-grown foodsB.
A.you can see how fruits and vegetables grow
B.you will contribute to protecting the environment
C.you will become much healthier and prettier
D.you are making money from your community
24.What does the passage mainly talk about?D
A.The way to keep your food tasty and healthy.
B.The popularity of the Horn of Plenty.
C.The importance of protecting the environment.
D.The benefits of buying locally.
