【精彩点评】
①biggest的使用准确地描述了雪曼将军树的形态特征。
②be located in 意为“位于……”，是描写事物地理位置的常用表达，非常契合本模块“描写自然或人文景观”的需要。which引导的定语从句点明了雪曼将军树的大致位置。
③estimated意为“估计的”，这一词汇的运用增加了文章的科学性和准确性；同时，动词的过去分词形式作定语的用法使文章结构更加紧凑。
④be interested in意为“对……感兴趣”，是学生常用的一个词组，用在这里很自然地表现了人们对雪曼将军树的喜爱。“so＋形容词/副词”和“such ＋名词”都可以用来表示“如此……”，此处用这两个结构分别描写了雪曼将军树的强壮和长寿，既避免了重复又使句子结构对称。
⑤“one of ＋ 名词的复数”意为“……之一”，这一结构点明了雪曼将军树在世界自然景观中的地位。
