For those looking forward to exploring natural wonders, we will present four natural wonders in the US that we believe are worth visiting.
Death Valley National Park
It is the lowest, hottest, and driest part of North America. The hottest summer on record in the valley saw temperatures top 120.F on 40 days. Ground temperatures as high as 201.F have been reported. Still, Death Valley is called with the wrong words. There are areas that are friendly to plants and animals. Death Valleys “walking” rocks move on their own as a result of freezing and thawing (融化).
Yellowstone National Park
Yellowstone's Old Faithful Geyser is powered by an underground super volcano. In 1872, Yellowstone became the world's first national park. The park's wildlife includes bison, bears, and hundreds of other animals.
Crater(坑) of Diamonds (钻石) State Park
Discovered in Crater of Diamonds State Park, the 40-carat is the largest diamond ever found in the US. The diamonds and the crater are by-products of a volcanic eruption. Visitors can search the 37- acre site for diamonds and if you find it you keep it.
Hawaii Volcanoes National Park
Located on the big island -of Hawaii, the Kilauea and Mauna Loa volcanoes are the centerpieces of Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. You can see how the Hawaiian Islands were born and watch the big island get bigger. Kilauea has been erupting since 1983
21. Why does the author think Death Valley is called wrong
A. There are plants and animals in Death Valley
B. There are “walking” rocks in Death Valley
C. Death Valley has another name
D. Death Valley has the highest temperatures
22. What can visitors do in Crater of Diamonds State Park
A. Watch the wild animals B. See a volcanic eruption
C. Admire the largest diamond D. Look for a diamond
23. Where can you learn more about the island
A. In Death Valley National park B. In Yellowstone National Park
C. In Hawaii Volcanoes National Park D. In Crater of Diamonds. State Park
B
If someone were to ask me what it is like to be a student in today’s society, I would probably answer them something like this: Being a student in today’s society is not always easy.
Adults often tell us that we don’t know what stress (压力) is. But we as teenage students have our own levels of stress. For example, all school activities require you to uphold your grade point to high standards.
Then, getting your homework turned in on time seems simple, but you still hope to have a life outside of school as well. Many students in their high school years start their first job, so now you have school in the mornings and then you’re off to part-time work. By the time you are done there, you are too tired to finish your school work, but you stay up late to try and return to school feeling sleepy the next day. What good is that
Let’s not forget about peer (同龄人) pressure. All high school students meet with it at some point in their lives. High school can be a place where students are made fun of and pointed at.
My point is, it is more stressful to be a student in high school than adults believe. Our “stress” may not include paying bills or taking care of a family, but I’m sure if the adults in our lives could go back to school today, they would be surprised at how much it has changed.
I know that the world outside of school is often hard and that the responsibilities are serious. That’s exactly why I know that the focus I give to my future is important in leading me to a career (事业) that will allow me to contribute (贡献) to society.
24. What is the text mainly about
A. The way of dealing with stress of study.
B. The stressful life of high school students.
C. The role of students in today’s society.
D. The differences between teenagers’ and adults’ life.
25. What is the author’s attitude towards students’ doing a job after school
A. He is against it. B. He feels disappointed at it.
C. He thinks it is worth a try. D. He shows great interest in it.
26. Which of the following is the author’s opinion
A. Adults are more stressful than students.
B. Adults should help students to deal with stress.
C. Adults have undervalued students’ stress.
D. Adults should go back to school to experience students’ life.
27. What does the underlined word “it” in the fifth paragraph refer to
A. Society. B. Study. C. School. D. Stress.
C
Elizabeth Blackwell was born in England in 1821, and moved to New York City when she was ten years old. One day she decided that she wanted to become a doctor. That was nearly impossible for a woman in the middle of the nineteenth century. After writing many letters asking for admission to medical schools, she was finally accepted by a doctor in Philadelphia. She was so determined that she taught school and gave music lessons to get money for the cost of schooling.
In 1849, after graduation from medical school, she decided to further her education in Paris. She wanted to be a surgeon, but a serious eye problem forced her to give up the idea.
Upon returning to the United States, she found it difficult to start her own practice because she was a woman. By 1857 Elizabeth and her sister, also a doctor, along with another woman doctor, managed to open a new hospital, the first for women and children. Besides being the first woman physician and founding her own hospital, she also set up the first medical school for women.

It’s school time again! You’re probably feeling excited and maybe a little sad that summer is over. Some kids feel nervous or a little scared on the first day of school because of all the new things: new teachers, new friends and even a new school. Luckily, these new worries only stay for a little while. Let’s find out more about going to a new school.
Most teachers kick off the new school year by introducing themselves and talking about all the things you’ll be doing that year. Some teachers give students a chance to tell something about themselves to the rest of the class, too. When teachers do the talking on the first day, they often go over classroom rules and school rules so you’ll know what’s allowed and what’s not. Please pay close attention.
You might already know a lot of people in your class on the first day, but it’s a great day to make new friends, so try to say hello to kids you know and new ones that you don’t. Make the first move and you’ll be glad you did, and so will your new friends!
Seeing old friends can make the first day an exciting one. You can make the day special by wearing clothes that you really like. Maybe you got a great T-shirt on one of your vacations, or a pair of shoes. It also can make you feel good to be prepared and have all the things you need, such as pencils, folders, and whatever else you’ll be needing. But make sure that you pack them the night before in case you don’t have time in the morning.
32. What do teachers usually do at the beginning of a new school year according to the passage
A. Allowing students to pay attention to them.
B. Asking students to introduce the campus.
C. Going over what their students have learned.
D Introducing themselves to their students.
33. How do you probably feel if you happen to see an old friend on the first day of school
A. Nervous. B. Lucky. C. Happy D. Upset.
34. According to the passage, you usually do everything on the first day of school EXCEPT “ ”.
A. introduce yourself B. learn about the school rules
C. make new friends D. go over your new lessons
35. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about
A. What to know about a new school.
B. How to prepare for a new school.
C. What to do on your first day of school.
D. How to make friends on your first day of school.

After ten years of living in one. I can't imagine ever living in a small town again. Surely small towns and big cities both have some problems in terms of transport. In a small town. you have to own a car to make life comfortable. You can't get around without one because there isn't any kind of public transport. Big cities generally have heavy traffic and expensive parking. but there you have a choice of taking public transport, which is cheaper than driving. So. if you don't have a car. you'd better live in the city. 1 also love the exciting life in big cities. I can always enjoy a lot of films. concerts. and other wonderful shows. However. these things are not common in small towns. The final thing I like about large cities is that you can meet different kinds of people. However, you seldom find such a variety of people in a smaller town. I think that living in an area where everyone was just like me would quickly become dull. Of course. safety should be considered. and that's one area where small towns are better than big cities. Still, I would rather be a bit more careful and live in a large city than to feel safe but dull.

For those looking forward to exploring natural wonders, we will present four natural wonders in the US that we believe are worth visiting.
Death Valley National Park
It is the lowest, hottest, and driest part of North America. The hottest summer on record in the valley saw temperatures top 120.F on 40 days. Ground temperatures as high as 201.F have been reported. Still, Death Valley is called with the wrong words. There are areas that are friendly to plants and animals. Death Valleys “walking” rocks move on their own as a result of freezing and thawing (融化).
Yellowstone National Park
Yellowstone's Old Faithful Geyser is powered by an underground super volcano. In 1872, Yellowstone became the world's first national park. The park's wildlife includes bison, bears, and hundreds of other animals.
Crater(坑) of Diamonds (钻石) State Park
Discovered in Crater of Diamonds State Park, the 40-carat is the largest diamond ever found in the US. The diamonds and the crater are by-products of a volcanic eruption. Visitors can search the 37- acre site for diamonds and if you find it you keep it.
Hawaii Volcanoes National Park
Located on the big island -of Hawaii, the Kilauea and Mauna Loa volcanoes are the centerpieces of Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. You can see how the Hawaiian Islands were born and watch the big island get bigger. Kilauea has been erupting since 1983

【22题详解】

If someone were to ask me what it is like to be a student in today’s society, I would probably answer them something like this: Being a student in today’s society is not always easy.
Adults often tell us that we don’t know what stress (压力) is. But we as teenage students have our own levels of stress. For example, all school activities require you to uphold your grade point to high standards.
Then, getting your homework turned in on time seems simple, but you still hope to have a life outside of school as well. Many students in their high school years start their first job, so now you have school in the mornings and then you’re off to part-time work. By the time you are done there, you are too tired to finish your school work, but you stay up late to try and return to school feeling sleepy the next day. What good is that
Let’s not forget about peer (同龄人) pressure. All high school students meet with it at some point in their lives. High school can be a place where students are made fun of and pointed at.
My point is, it is more stressful to be a student in high school than adults believe. Our “stress” may not include paying bills or taking care of a family, but I’m sure if the adults in our lives could go back to school today, they would be surprised at how much it has changed.
I know that the world outside of school is often hard and that the responsibilities are serious. That’s exactly why I know that the focus I give to my future is important in leading me to a career (事业) that will allow me to contribute (贡献) to society.
24. What is the text mainly about
A. The way of dealing with stress of study.
B. The stressful life of high school students.
C. The role of students in today’s society.
D. The differences between teenagers’ and adults’ life.
25. What is the author’s attitude towards students’ doing a job after school
A. He is against it. B. He feels disappointed at it.
C. He thinks it is worth a try. D. He shows great interest in it.
26. Which of the following is the author’s opinion
A. Adults are more stressful than students.
B. Adults should help students to deal with stress.
C. Adults have undervalued students’ stress.
D. Adults should go back to school to experience students’ life.
27. What does the underlined word “it” in the fifth paragraph refer to
A. Society. B. Study. C. School. D. Stress.
【答案】24. B 25. A 26. C 27. D
【解析】

【27题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第五段“Our “stress” may not include paying bills or taking care of a family, but I’m sure if the adults in our lives could go back to school today, they would be surprised at how much it has changed.”（我们的“压力”也许不包括付账单或者照顾家人，但是我确信如果现在的成年人能回到现在的学校去，他们将会吃惊的发现它改变的太多了。）可知，这句话里的“it”指代压力“stress”。故选D。
C
Elizabeth Blackwell was born in England in 1821, and moved to New York City when she was ten years old. One day she decided that she wanted to become a doctor. That was nearly impossible for a woman in the middle of the nineteenth century. After writing many letters asking for admission to medical schools, she was finally accepted by a doctor in Philadelphia. She was so determined that she taught school and gave music lessons to get money for the cost of schooling.
In 1849, after graduation from medical school, she decided to further her education in Paris. She wanted to be a surgeon, but a serious eye problem forced her to give up the idea.
Upon returning to the United States, she found it difficult to start her own practice because she was a woman. By 1857 Elizabeth and her sister, also a doctor, along with another woman doctor, managed to open a new hospital, the first for women and children. Besides being the first woman physician and founding her own hospital, she also set up the first medical school for women.

It’s school time again! You’re probably feeling excited and maybe a little sad that summer is over. Some kids feel nervous or a little scared on the first day of school because of all the new things: new teachers, new friends and even a new school. Luckily, these new worries only stay for a little while. Let’s find out more about going to a new school.
Most teachers kick off the new school year by introducing themselves and talking about all the things you’ll be doing that year. Some teachers give students a chance to tell something about themselves to the rest of the class, too. When teachers do the talking on the first day, they often go over classroom rules and school rules so you’ll know what’s allowed and what’s not. Please pay close attention.
You might already know a lot of people in your class on the first day, but it’s a great day to make new friends, so try to say hello to kids you know and new ones that you don’t. Make the first move and you’ll be glad you did, and so will your new friends!
Seeing old friends can make the first day an exciting one. You can make the day special by wearing clothes that you really like. Maybe you got a great T-shirt on one of your vacations, or a pair of shoes. It also can make you feel good to be prepared and have all the things you need, such as pencils, folders, and whatever else you’ll be needing. But make sure that you pack them the night before in case you don’t have time in the morning.

第二节

After my arrival on campus on the first day，I went for ___64___ walk in the early morning. I saw some old people exercise by ____65____(practice) tai chi slowly. I stopped and watched their___66___ (move)closely. It attracted me，and the very next day at registration time，I rushed to the teacher’s office to choose tai chi as my optional course.

The teacher told us, “Tai chi is favored for its abundant health benefits, and the movement of the body is regarded___67___ the motion of yin and yang forces.”
The main rules that the teacher taught us were attitude，discipline (自律) and balance.

However，as the teacher puts it， our attitude，our willingness and our action will make the____70____ (possible) possible. And I will do.
【答案】61 seen
62. Where 63. to learn
64. a 65. practicing/practising
66. movements
67. as 68. seriously
69. which 70. impossible
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。短文叙述了作者来中国学太极拳的故事。
【61题详解】
考查时态。分析可知see在句中作谓语动词，根据时间状语since可知这里用的是现在完成时态，现在完成时的构成是：助动词（have/has）+动词的过去分词。此处已经有了助动词have,只需要填see的过去分词形式即可，故填seen。
【62题详解】
考查状语从句。句意：哪里有中国，哪里就有功夫。分析可知there is kung fu 是句子主句，___2___ there is China是一个状语从句，缺一个引导词。结合句意可知这里使用了句子结构"Where there..., there is..."（哪儿有……哪儿就有……），故填where引导这个状语从句。故填Where。
【63题详解】
考查动词不定式做表语。分析可知______3______ (learn) kung fu and master the techniques of martial arts.在句中做表语，因为所给词为动词，只能用现在分词或不定式做表语。而learn和master是并列的，master用的是动词原型，说明这里要用动词不定式做表语。故填to learn。
【64题详解】
考查不定冠词。句意：在到达校园后的第一天，我清晨去散步。walk表示“散步”时是可数名词，根据句意此处泛指“一次散步”，要用不定冠词修饰walk。walk为辅音开头，故填a。
【65题详解】
考查动名词。by是介词，后接动词时，动词要用其动名词形式做宾语，故填practicing/practising。
【66题详解】
考查名词。空格处做watch的宾语且由形容词性物主代词their修饰,要填一个名词，这里指“他们的行动，活动”，表达的是复数意义，故要用其复数形式，故填movements。
【67题详解】
考查固定搭配。句意：老师告诉我们:“太极拳因对健康有很大的好处而受到青睐，（打太极时）身体的运动被认为是阴阳力量的运动。”regard…as是固定搭配，意为“将……认为是”符合句意，故填as。
【68题详解】
考查副词。修饰动词take要用副词。故填seriously。
【69题详解】
考查非限定性定语从句。分析可知____9____ was a difficult job是非限定性定语从句，先行词trying to maintain my balance指物，引导词在句中做主语，应该用which引导这个非限定性定语从句。故填which。
【70题详解】
考查形容词。句意：然而，正如老师所说，我们的态度，我们的意愿和我们的行动将使不可能成为可能。 “the+形容词” 结构可以表示一类人或表示某个抽象概念，所以the impossible可以表示“不可能的事”，符合句意。故填impossible。

【答案】
【解析】
【分析】这是一封感谢信，主要是感谢对方帮助作者学习英语。
【详解】第一处：考查形容词。句意：自从你离开我们学校已经一整周了。此处应该用形容词修饰后面的名词，故entirely改为entire。
第二处：考查宾语从句。句意：你无法想像我是多么想像我们过去一起度过的日子。imagine后为宾语从句，从句中主谓宾齐全，缺少状语，而what在从句中担当主语或宾语，故what改为how。
第三处：考查名词。句意：你给了我那么多建议。advice为不可数名词，没有复数形式。故advices改为advice。
第四处：考查动词时态。句意：你帮助我学英语。根据文章可知，现在David已经走了，帮助我学英语是过去的事情，所以应该用一般过去时。故help改为helped。
第五处：考查连词。句意：因为我从你身上学了很多，我对我将来的学习更有信心了。because of是介词短语，后面加名词，代词，动名词等名词性的东西，because后面加句子，而此处后面为句子，故去掉of。
第六处：考查代词。句意：因为我从你身上学了很多，我对我将来的学习更有信心了。此处表达的是对我自己的将来充满信心，故your改为my。
第七处：考查非谓语动词。句意：我真的从和你一起说英语中得到了乐趣。from为介词，后面加动名词。故speak改为speaking。
第八处：考查冠词。句意：虽然现在我们不在同一个国家，但是我们友谊会永远长存。same前加定冠词the，这是固定搭配。故a改为the。
第九处：考查不定式。句意：我会尽我全力去学习英语，交更多的朋友。try one’s best to do sth.尽力做某事，是固定搭配，故learn前加to。
第十处：考查名词。句意：我会尽我全力去学习英语，交更多的朋友。“更多的朋友”应该用复数形式，故friend改为friends。

【解析】
【分析】本篇书面表达属于应用文，要求考生写一篇发言稿，向澳大利亚访问团介绍班级情况。
【详解】第一步：审题
体裁：应用文
时态：根据提示，时态应为一般现在时和一般将来时。
结构：总分法
总分法指把主题句作为总说，把支持句作为分说，并以这种方式安排所写内容。
写作思路：1. 自我介绍，点明主题
2. 介绍班级情况。
3. 介绍同学特点。
4. 介绍学校生活。
5. 表达愿望。
第二步: 重点词组和句式
on behalf of; I’m much honored to; give you a warm welcome; I’d like to; one of the top classes; a variety of associations; take part in; through the communication; have great fun;
第三步：连词成句
1. On behalf of our class, I’m much honored to give you a warm welcome.
2. I’d like to introduce our class.
3. We’re one of the top classes in our school.
4. We have a variety of associations.
5. We also take part in various sports in the afternoon.
6. I believe you will enjoy your stay here and have great fun.
根据提示及关键词（组）进行遣词造句，注意主谓一致和时态问题。
第四步：连句成篇（文章纽带）
运用一些衔接词语，即文章纽带，将连句成文。常用衔接词如下：
1.表文章结构顺序：First of all, Firstly/First, Secondly/Second… And then, Finally, In the end, At
2.表并列补充关系：What is more, Besides, Moreover, Furthermore, In addition As well as, not only…but (also), including,
3.表转折对比关系：However, On the contrary, but, On the one hand…,On the other hand… Some…,while others…,as for, so…that…
4.表因果关系：Because, As, So, Thus, Therefore, As a result
如果没必要运用这类衔接与过渡词语，心中也要有文章纽带贯穿的逻辑。
第五步：润色修改
最后，书写一定要规范。
【点睛】范文内容完整，要点全面，语言规范，语篇连贯，词数适当，上下文意思连贯，符合逻辑关系。作者在范文中使用了一些高级表达方式，如短语on behalf of，a variety of，take part in；非谓语动词On behalf of our class, I’m much honored to give you a warm welcome.宾语从句I hope we’ll learn about each other and become friends through the communication.全文中没有中式英语的句式，也没有滥用一些作文套句，英语运用能力较高。另外，文章思路清晰、层次分明，上下句转换自然，通顺流畅。
