3. To avoid being fined, we need a _________ (license) driver.
因a handful of是固定搭配,意为“少许”。
slogans
由their可知,应填名词的复数形式。
handful
licensed
修饰名词driver应用形容词。
4. The act of __________ (violent) made villagers explode
with anger.
5. Darwin is a __________ (biology) who put forward a
famous theory.

本文是一篇记叙文,体现了“人与自然”的主题语境。本文主要讲述作者去了位于赤道以南的澳大利亚旅游并看望了朋友奥托。除了品尝美食,奥拓还带作者观看了大型的游泳比赛和参观了考拉动物园。
1. B 选项:dismiss解雇;visit拜访;entitle使享有权利;urge催促。由文章首句 “Last week, it was peak season of travelling and I was free.” 和常识可知,上周是旅游旺季,作者有空,所以他去位于赤道南部的澳大利亚旅游是为了 “拜访(visit)” 朋友奥托。
2. B 选项:domains领域;bakeries面包店;arrows箭;samples样品。由下文的“…fast?food joints and butcher shops provided me with some of the 3 food experiences.”可知,快餐连锁店和肉店给“我”提供了美食体验,故空格应该填与食物有关的,“面包店(bakeries)”属于食物类,与快餐连锁店和肉店并列,故选B项。
3. A 选项:premier顶级的,最著名的;racial种族的;weekly每周的;complicated复杂的。由空格后“…food experiences. While enjoying the 4 food …”和常识可知,作者是在享受美食,他这次的美食体验是“顶级的(premier)”。
4. A 选项:local当地的;realistic现实的;muddy沾满泥的;
explosive爆炸的,暴躁的。由上文“I travelled to Australia”和
“A handful of local 2 , fast-food joints and butcher shops”和
本句的“we talked with some local people”可知,“我”去澳大利
亚,然后去到当地的美食店,在享受“当地的”美食和喝香草茶
的过程中,与当地人在交谈,local为原词复现。
5. D 选项:fence栅栏;prison监狱;phase阶段;hotel酒店。
根据第一段作者到达后的体验和空格前的“Then we took a rest”
可知,作者与朋友是要去“酒店(hotel)”休息了。
6. C 选项:appoint任命;fetch拿来;watch看;declare宣布。由空后的“international swimming competition which was held in a grand strait”可知,他朋友带他去“观看(watch)”在大峡谷举行的国际游泳比赛。
7. D 选项:tested测试;suspended悬,挂;calculated计算;sponsored赞助。由空后的“by the Diving Foundation”、下一句的“won the awards”及常识可知,这场大型的比赛有奖励,据说是由跳水基金会“赞助(sponsored)”的。
8. A 选项:competitors参赛者;salesmen推销员;chairwomen女主席;labours劳动者。从上文的“international swimming competition”和空后的“swam fast”可知,在这场国际游泳比赛中所有的“参赛者(competitors)”都游得很快。
9. C 选项:temporary临时的;guilty内疚的;excellent优秀的;corporate团体的。由空后的“swimmers won the awards”和常识可知,只有表现“优秀的(excellent)”游泳选手才能获得奖励。
10. D 选项:nailed盯牢;polished擦亮;restricted限制;distributed分发。由本句“The prime minister 10 the awards to the winners, and 11 photographs with them.”
可知,首相给优胜者 “分发(distributed)” 奖品,并与他们
“拍(took)”照留念。
11. C 选项:seized抓住;reformed改革;took拍;assigned安排。见上一题解析。
12. B 选项:violence暴力;session一场;golf高尔夫;biology生物。由本句“After that, we visited a licensed koala zoo, where koalas selected for each 12 were in a good state for human contact.”可知,那个动物园里的专家会确保为每“一场(session)”互动而选出状态良好,可以与人接触的考拉。
13. C 选项: conflicted with与……有冲突;took over接管;came across偶然遇见;quarreled with与……吵架。由本句“On the way, we 13 a flock of koalas hanging onto tree trunks”可知,他们一路上还“偶然遇见(came across)”了一群挂在树干上的考拉。
14. B 选项:annually每年地;frequently频繁地;cruelly残忍地;blankly空白地。由上文“we visited a licensed koala zoo”
和常识可知,他们去到动物园,动物和鸟比较多,所以他们也
能“频繁地(frequently)”看到一些鸟在巢中产卵,孵蛋。
15. D 选项:comprehended理解;recited背诵;divided分开;expressed表达。根据前面两段旅游的经历和空后的“for providing me with a really joyful trip”及常识可知,作者对奥托给他提供了一次开心的旅程“表达(expressed)”感谢。

课文经典回顾
I am travelling to Australia to visit a friend there over the school holidays. Having already done some research on the country, I know Australia 1__________ (locate) to the south of the equator. There are some iconic sites and unique animals, but 2________ interests me most is meeting people there and 3_____________ (experience) their culture, food, and way of life.
experiencing
what
is located
Since I arrived, I have tasted many different kinds of food with my friend, so my first 4______________(impression) of Australia have been all about food! In Katherine, 5____ town in Australia’s Northern Territory, I have learned about the life and customs of the Aborigines, who are native 6 ____ Australia and witnessed 7 _______ (they) influence on the country’s culture.
their

a
impressions
After staying here for some time, the complicated mix of peoples and cultures that make up the nation leaves the deepest impression on me. Immigrants contributed a lot to the new 8_________ (culture) influences.
Personally 9 __________(speak), the straightforwardness, free-and-easy attitude towards life, their 10_____________ (friendly) and warmth are what I like best.
friendliness
speaking
cultural
1. is located 考查时态和语态。此处在陈述客观事实,用一般现在时,又因be located+介词表示“位于”,故填is located。
2. what 考查连词。but后主语从句缺连接词,并且interests me most缺主语,故填what。
3. experiencing 考查非谓语动词。与前面的meeting people there作并列表语,故填experiencing。
4. impressions 考查名词单复数。因后面的谓语是have been,填复数形式。
5. a 考查冠词。表示泛指“一个”城镇,用不定冠词a。
6. to 考查介词。因be native to (原产于……;源于……) 是固定搭配。
7. their 考查代词。修饰名词influence应用形容词性物主代词。
8. cultural 考查词性转换。修饰名词influences应用形容词作定语。
9. speaking 考查非谓语动词。因personally speaking 是固定搭配,意为“就个人来说”。
10. friendliness 考查词性转换。在形容词性物主代词后应用名词。
