The most beautiful buildings in Melbourne
Royal Exhibition Building
Designed by architect Joseph Reed and completed in 1880, the Royal Exhibition Building is one of Australia^ most impressive architectural beauties. It was built to host the first official World’s Fair in the Southern Hemisphere. While smaller sections of the building were destroyed by fire, the main building survived. You can get a good look at select events throughout the year.
Flinders Street Station
Flinders Street Station is one of the city’s most recognizable landmarks. Construction began in 1900 and completed at the same year, with the original designs laid out by Fawcett and Ashworth, including a large dome (圆顶) over the main entrance and a clock tower over the Elizabeth Street entrance. The building’s top floor ballroom was a later addition.
RMIT Design Hub
The building, completed in November 2012, is covered in 17,000 automated circular glass panels— not only do they spin to suit Melbourne’s weather forecast, but they also provide a high level of heat efficiency. The RMIT Design Hub by architect Sean Godsell is a Greenstar Certified Project, and it won the 2013 International Architecture Award by the Chicago Athenaeum.
Melbourne’s GPO
Located on the comer of Elizabeth Street and Bourke Street Mall, Melbourne’s GPO designed by American architect Walter Burley Griffin was completed in 1910. The space functioned as a post office for most of the 20th century until 1993 when Australia Post decided to move its post office functions into smaller shopfronts. A fire broke out in the GPO in September 2001, destroying the interior of the building, and it was only in 2004 that the GPO reopened as a shopping center.
1．Whose design was the oldest building of the four
A．Joseph Reed’s. B．Fawcett and Ashworth's.

四、七选五
London is considered as one of the greatest cities on Earth. From historical sites to the modern-day metropolis, it can seem an infinite feast of activities and possibilities. For the budget-minded traveler, London might not appear to be the most wallet-friendly destination. 1 There is a wide selection of free things to do in London, as long as you know where to look.
One of the most surprisingly free things to do in London is visit top museums and art galleries. 2 For those who prefer museums with an archaeological feel, the British Museum charges no admission, and contains such cultural treasures as the Rosetta Stone. Many other museums are also free to visit, although some offer access to special traveling exhibits for a fee.
London has a long history of influencing the musical world, and the wise traveler knows that concerts are some of the best free things to do here in various seasons. Particularly in the summer, free concerts are available along the banks of the Thames River, and frequently advertised in entertainment guides. 3 Covent Garden, a theater and shopping district, is famous for its free performances, and even auditions musicians before allowing them to perform.
4 For instance, Charles Dickens's fans may take a stroll through Camden Town, following in the footsteps of Bob Cratchit. For those desperate for a glimpse into the world of Harry Potter, go to King's Cross Station, where you can see for yourself if Platform Nine-and-three-quarters really exists…
While London is full of exciting opportunities for the luxury traveler, it doesn't exclude those on a budget. The free things to do in London will often help travelers escape from the tourist attractions and catch a look at local life. 5___
A．However, this is not the case.
B．Literary lovers will find many free things to do in London.
C．That's because London is among the world's priciest cities.
D．The National Gallery is free to visitors favoring world-class paintings.
E．Even in winter, certain areas are usually crowed with musicians and performers.
F．Nobody can refuse such charming music with the beautiful sceneries along the river.
G．Combining them with some well-chosen costly additions will give you a balanced look at the beautiful city.

【解析】
本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了新奥尔良的多个别名及其由来。
1.考查词性转换。句意：他们也可以在公民中传播骄傲。此处是名词作动词spread的宾语，所以将形容词proud 转换成pride。故填pride。
2.考查副词修饰动词。句意：新奥尔良,路易斯安那州可能比其他任何美国城市都有更多的别名。此处用副词修饰动词，所给词probable是形容词，其副词是probably。故填probably。
3．考查非谓语动词。句意：在19世纪早期,新奥尔良有一个舞蹈大厅叫做“The Big Easy”。此处是there be句型，所以动词call是非谓语动词，且和a dance hall之间是被动关系，是过去分词作后置定语。故填called。
4．考查状语从句。句意：但这个绰号直到20世纪70年代才成名。固定搭配：not…until“直到……才”，其中until在这里是介词。故填until。
5.考查表语从句。句意：那是当路易斯安那州的一名报纸作家开始用这个名字打电话给新奥尔良的时候。此处缺时间状语，be动词was后面是when引导的表语从句，且when在从句中作时间状语。故填when。
6.考查动词转形容词。句意：她把那里轻松的生活方式比作纽约匆忙的生活节奏。句中名词pace由形容词修饰，所给词hurry的形容词是hurried，在这里作定语。故填hurried。
7.考查现在分词作状语。句意：这些地区沿着密西西比河的大曲线,给新奥尔良带来了新月的形状。此处用动词的现在分词作为伴随状语。故填giving。
8.考查动词时态。句意：另一个绰号是爵士乐的诞生地，因为这种音乐起源于新奥尔良。该句是复合句，含because引导的原因状语从句，从句在描述一个过去的事情，所以句子用一般过去时。故填started。
9.考查名词复数。句意：它也因为狂野的庆祝和游行被命名为Mardi Gras城市。此处wild是形容词，修饰名词，且名词用复数形式与and后面的parades并列，所给词celebrate的名词是celebration，其复数是celebrations。故填celebrations。
10.考查定冠词。句意：如果你不想使用完整的名字,你可以叫这个城市NOLA。此处表示特指，所以用定冠词the。故填the。
三、阅读理解
1．A
2．C
3．A
【解析】
本文是一篇应用文。主要介绍了墨尔本的一些著名建筑。
1．细节理解题。根据Royal Exhibition Building中的“Designed by architect
Joseph Reed and completed in 1880, the Royal Exhibition Building is one of Australia^ most impressive architectural beauties.（皇家展览馆由建筑师约瑟夫·里德设计，于1880年完工，是澳大利亚最令人印象深刻的建筑美之一）”；Flinders Street Station中的“Construction began in 1900 and completed at the same year, with the original designs laid out by Fawcett and Ashworth,（1900年开始建造，同年完工，最初的设计由福西特和阿什沃斯设计）”；根据RMIT Design Hub中的“The building, completed in November 2012, is covered in 17,000 automated circular glass panels（该建筑于2012年11月完工，由17000块自动化圆形玻璃板覆盖 ）和The RMIT Design Hub by architect Sean Godsell is a Greenstar Certified Project,（由建筑师Sean Godsell设计的RMIT设计中心是一个绿色之星认证的项目）”；Melbourne’s GPO中的“Located on the comer of Elizabeth Street and Bourke Street Mall, Melbourne’s GPO designed by American architect Walter Burley Griffin was completed in 1910.（位于伊丽莎白街和伯克街购物中心的拐角处，由美国建筑师Walter Burley Griffin设计的墨尔本GPO于1910年完工）”，可知，Royal Exhibition Building 的竣工时间最久，是由Joseph Reed设计。故选 A。
2．细节理解题。根据RMIT Design Hub 中的“and it won the 2013 International Architecture Award by the Chicago Athenaeum（它获得了2013年芝加哥雅典娜博物馆颁发的国际建筑奖 ）”，可知，RMIT Design Hub建筑获得了国际建筑奖。故选C。
3．推理判断题。根据Royal Exhibition Building 中的“While smaller sections of the building were destroyed by fire, the main building survived.（虽然该建筑的较小部分被大火烧毁，但主楼幸存了下来）”和Melbourne’s GPO 中的“A fire broke out in the GPO in September 2001, destroying the interior of the building...（2001年9月，GPO发生了一场火灾，烧毁了大楼内部……）”可推断出，这两栋建筑都经历过火灾。故选A。

【解析】
这是一篇说明文。本文作者介绍了对于预算有限的游客可以在伦敦做的一些免费的事情。

2．根据前句的“One of the most surprisingly free things to do in London is visit top museums and art galleries.(伦敦最令人震惊的免费的资源之一就是参观博物馆和艺术馆)”及后两句均为介绍其他适合不同品味的人的一些免费的博物馆可知，空格处也是介绍一个免费的博物馆美术馆之类的。由此可知，D选项“The National Gallery is free to visitors favoring world-class paintings.(国家美术馆对爱好绘画的游客免费开放)”与前后句逻辑一致，故选D。
3.根据空格前句“Particularly in the summer, free concerts are available along the banks of the Thames River, and frequently advertised in entertainment guides.(特别是在夏天，在Thames River河沿岸有免费的音乐会，这些也会在旅游指南里面做宣传)”可知，空格处与前面的音乐会和这条河有关。由此可知，F选项“Nobody can refuse such charming music with the beautiful sceneries along the river.(没有人能拒绝如此迷人的音乐和沿河美丽风景)”与前句逻辑一致，故选F。
4.根据前文空格后面的“for instance”可知，本段主要在举例子，主要介绍了Camdon小镇，King’s Cross Station等目的地。那么首句为本段的总领句，跟文学家及文学作品有关的景点。由此可知，B选项“Literary lovers will find many free things to do in London.(文学爱好者在伦敦会发现很多免费的事情可以做)”与本段内容贴合，可作为本段总领句填入此处，故选B。
5.根据空格前句“The free things to do in London will often help travelers escape from the tourist attractions and catch a look at local life.(伦敦免费的资源将帮助游客们远离旅游景点，看看当地的生活)”可知，此处讲述的是免费的资源。G选项 “Combining them with some well-chosen costly additions will give you a balanced look at the beautiful city.(将它们与一些精心挑选的自费资源结合起来，你就可以对这个美丽的城市有一个均衡的了解)”中的them指代的上文中的免费资源，与文段逻辑一致，故选G。

Its beautiful countryside excites and inspires all, offering something for each of the senses.The peaceful landscape of the "Emerald Isle" and its many green counties is a true feast for the eyes, with its rolling green hills dotted with sheep and cattle. And down by the sea,the roar of the ocean waves and cries of the seabirds make up the music of the coast.

On a quiet morning in the mountains, feel the sun on your skin, and breathe in the sweet
scent of fresh flowers while birds greet the new day with their morning song. With all this
beauty, it is not surprising that Ireland has developed strong traditions that include music,
dancing, and dining. To have a chance of experiencing this, stop by a village pub and relax
with a glass of wine or a local beer. Better yet, enjoy a delicious traditional Irish Beef Stew.
If you're lucky, you might be able to enjoy some traditional music and dancing, too. And
if you introduce yourself to a friendly face, you are more than likely to experience local
culture and customs first-hand.

Sample
In my village, every day starts with a "fire" ! The houses turn red as the sun rises
above the mountains.
Seeing the flames, the roosters sound the alarm. They wake everyone in the village
with their loud cries,chasing the children to school and rushing the adults to work. In
the evening, a gold haze settles over everything, This is my favourite time of the day,
when all work for the day has been completed. When the smell of hot oil and fragrant
spices float through the air, I know that it will soon be time for dinner. My neighbors
begin to call to their children to come home. The birds begin their nightly quarrel
over their favourite places to rest.
At night, the stars come out to tell us that all is well and my village grows quiet. For
now we'll sleep, and tomorrow the sun will set us on fire again for a new day!
