On a windy day in June, Fourth Class took the train to Chinatown. We had begun to learn Putonghua and our teacher said this excursion would let us practice our language skills and learn more about Chinese culture.
We entered Chinatown through the arched(拱形的)entrance gate with red painted wooden pillars(柱子).Big stone lions sat on each side. Then I noticed that the street signs were written in both Chinese and English. I photographed the sign for Hay Street.
The next place we visited was the Chinese Garden of Friendship which was very peaceful.
There were waterfalls, hidden stone paths and a beautiful teahouse. We had a wonderful time there.
At last it was time for our Chinese lunch. We entered a big restaurant that had red lanterns hanging from the roof and red dragons on the walls. The waiters greeted us in Putonghua and we answered them in Putonghua. We were shown how to use chopsticks and how to choose from the menus with Chinese writing.
At 2: 30 we left Chinatown. We were all very tired. On the train, our teacher told us her experience in China. She was just back from seeing the Great Wall of China. It's like a long dragon winding its way. We were told it is the longest wall in the world. As we were listening,one student, who I couldn't name, fell asleep on the train and snored(打鼾) loudly. His face turned red when he woke up.
In the past, I often told my Chinese classmates how to speak English. Now there are more people than ever who are studying Chinese. I can understand why it's a fascinating language,and there are always new words to be discovered! I cannot forget our excursion to Chinatown.

It was the first time for us to be away from our parents. Some of us started to feel homesick(想家的). However, when the night party began, the homesickness was gone!The next day, everybody rushed(冲)to the boating class, hoping to leave others behind. At first, my friends and I worked hard, but the boat wouldn't listen to us and kept going round and round. Then the teacher taught us how to work together. After many tries, we did much better. The swimming class was my favorite. It was about the hottest time of a day and the best time to stay in the cool water.

参考答案
完形填空
1.D　(be) famous for意为"因……而闻名",故所缺的词是famous。suitable"合适的";useful"有用的";good"好的"。
2.D　设空前意为"那对夫妇在汽车的GPS中输入目的地",设空后意为"他们犯了一个拼写错误",根据设空前后的转折关系可知,此处所缺的词是but,意为"但是"。
3.B　slowly"缓慢地";carelessly"粗心地";patiently"有耐心地";clearly"清楚地"。他们"粗心地"打出了CARPI,而不是CAPRI,故carelessly符合文意。
4.A　根据第二段中的"Capri is an island in the south of the country"以及第四段中的"started driving south"可推断,Capri在意大利的南部,并且他们意识到走错方向之后,开始开车向南走,由此可推断,他们开车到达的是意大利的"北部",故所缺的词是north。
5.C　satisfy"使满意";relax"使放松";worry"使担心";touch"碰到,感动"。他们甚至没有越过一座桥,也没有看到海,但这并没有使他们感到担心,故所缺的词是worry。
6.A　他们问"怎样"到Blue Grotto,故所缺的词是how。
7.D　refuse"拒绝";control"控制";doubt"怀疑";understand"理解"。办事人员当然不"理解"他们的话,故所缺的词是understand。
8.B　根据设空后的"for dinner"可知,他以为他们想去一家"饭店"吃晚饭,故所缺的词是restaurant。
9.C　continue"继续说";accept"接受";explain"解释";repeat"重复"。当那个男人意识到那对夫妇以为自己在Capri时,他"解释"了一下他们的错误,故所缺的词是explained。
10.B　interested"感兴趣的";surprised"吃惊的";excited"兴奋的";pleased"满意的"。那对夫妇很"惊讶",但并没有生气,故所缺的词是surprised。

5.C　根据文中的"After a good meal and a bottle of wine...went to sleep"可知,福尔摩斯和华生睡前喝了一瓶酒。
B
1.B　根据下文可知,让我们练习语言技能和了解更多的中国文化是这次旅行的目的,也是旅行的作用。所以excursion应该指的是trip"旅行"。
2.D　根据第二段中的"We entered Chinatown through the arched(拱形的)entrance gate with red painted wooden pillars(柱子).Big stone lions sat on each side"可知,进入中国城入口大门是来到中国城做的第一件事情,拱形的大门和大门两侧的石狮子体现了中国文化,故选D。
