Gold Coast family holidays are always great fun whether you are from Australia or from abroad.There are beautiful beaches,adventure parks,nature parks and so many more.
There are so many sights to see here.It is a pity to drive in a car and you’ll miss a great part of it.Australia is home to many animals and birds that can only be seen when moving slowly and going into the areas where they live.
When you are on a bicycle,you have the advantage of being able to stop whenever you want to see an interesting animal or bird that you have never seen before.It is a quieter mode(方式) of transportation as well,so you might even be able to take a picture.When you are on the beach,you can breathe that clean air and view the beauty of the water and sand.It is a totally different experience from either simply sunbathing or passing it in a car.
There are many choices of hiring a bicycle to experience the Gold Coast attractions.There are stores that will fit a bike perfectly to your size.These bikes for both adults and children are in many styles and colours to please any taste.If you have ever wanted to try a tandem bike (双人单车),now is your chance,because they have those too.
A bicycle hire on Gold Coast is something that everyone should try at least once.This is a wonderful chance for anyone who likes to cycle and it is also a cheap way to travel with your family.

My father was attached to gardening by birth.One of my earliest memories is following Dad barefoot around in the garden with both hands blackened from digging in the soil.The garden was a wonderland full of possibilities.
As Dad grew older,he still loved gardening.Even when he was diagnosed with cancer,he still planted all sorts of plants.Sometimes,I would come over to visit,and we would walk together in the garden.But then,something changed.Like the weeds that took over his garden,the cancer grew rapidly in Dad,and the doctor gave up.I stayed with Dad twenty-four hours a day and I found myself in all kinds of uncomfortable situations with Dad until I promised to care for the garden.
Though I had heard the words of the doctor,what really made me believe that Dad was dying was the state of his garden.That year,he only planted tomatoes.Too tired to weed them,he simply tied them with strong strings to the fence and let them be.It made me sad to see them ignored,so I would come over and water them once in a while,and remove the weeds.I still remember the day I picked the last tomato from the vine(藤).That day was one of the saddest I had ever experienced in my life.
Three years ago,I decided to plant my own garden.I decided I would start out with just a few tomatoes.That morning when I moved to the garden,something caught the corner of my eye and I had to smile.It was my eight-year-old son Nathan,standing barefoot in the soil,happily playing in soil.

Perhaps no one knows the power of imagination better than Chinese writer Liu Cixin.Until four years ago,Liu worked full-time as a computer engineer at a power plant in Shanxi Province.He wrote science fiction only in his spare time.But it was during this time that Liu’s imagination took flight.He did what he might never have the chance to do in real life—wander in space,fight with aliens,and visit planets light-years away.
But even with such a powerful imagination,Liu,55,probably hadn’t expected that he would become the first Asian to win the Hugo Award,science fiction’s highest prize,in 2015.Perhaps neither did he think that former US president Barack Obama would read his novel The Three-Body Problem,nor that on Nov 9 in Washington D.C.,he would win the 2018 Arthur C.Clarke Award for Imagination in Service to Society.It’s the first time a Chinese writer has ever won the award.
In his acceptance speech,Liu said that he owed his imagination to Arthur C.Clarke (1917—2008),a famous UK sci-fi author.He said that reading Clarke’s 1968 classic novel 2001:A Space Odyssey in the early 1980s had a great effect on him.
“My mind opened up like never before.I felt like a narrow river finally seeing the sea,” Liu said.“That night,in my eyes,the starry sky was completely different from the past.For the first time in my life,I was awed (使……敬畏) by the mystery of the universe.”
But no matter how far away Liu’s imagination takes him,somehow his novels always stay rational.
In The Three-Body Problem,for example,Liu tells a tale of aliens invading Earth.But unlike other alien stories,Liu talks more about relationships between civilisations(文明),rules of survival,and the meanings of life.And in The Wandering Earth,Liu looks ahead to the day when our solar system comes to an end and humans have to look for a new place to live.However,all his visions and solutions are based on “hard science”.Liu’s works aren’t simply daydreams.
【语篇导读】本文是一篇人物传记。文章讲述的是中国作家刘慈欣的成就与写作风格。
29.What do we know about Liu Cixin
A.He became a full-time writer when he was young.
B.He dreamed about wandering in space from childhood.
C.He is the first Asian to win the Arthur C.Clarke Award.
D.He is the first Chinese winner of the Hugo Award.

How could we possibly think that keeping animals in cages in unnatural environments—mostly for entertainment purposes—is fair and respectful Zoo officials say they are concerned about animals.However,most zoos remain “collections” of interesting “things” rather than protective habitats.
Zoos teach people that it is acceptable to keep animals bored,lonely,and far from their natural homes.Zoos claim to educate people and save endangered species,but visitors leave zoos without having learned anything meaningful about the animals’ natural behaviour,intelligence,or beauty.Zoos keep animals in small spaces or cages,and most signs only mention the species’ name,diet,and natural range.
The animals’ normal behaviour is seldom noticed because zoos don’t usually take care of the animals’ natural needs.The animals are kept together in small spaces,with no privacy and little opportunity for mental and physical exercise.This results in unusual and self-destructive behaviour called zoochosis.A worldwide study of zoos found that zoochosis is common among animals kept in small spaces or cages.Another study showed that elephants spend 22 percent of their time making repeated head movements or biting cage bars,and bears spend 30 percent of their time walking back and forth,a sign of unhappiness and pain.
Furthermore,most animals in zoos are not endangered.Captive breeding(圈养繁殖) of endangered big cats,Asian elephants,and other species has not resulted in their being sent back to the wild.Zoos talk a lot about their captive breeding programmes because they do not want people to worry about a species dying out.In fact,baby animals also attract a lot of paying customers.Haven’t we seen enough competitions to name baby animals
Actually,we will save endangered species only if we save their habitats and put an end to the reasons people kill them.Instead of supporting zoos,we should support groups that work to protect animals’ natural habitats.
【语篇导读】本文讲述的是人类对于动物的圈养给动物带来了很多的伤害。建议我们不要再支持动物园这样的做法。
33.How would the author describe the animals’ life in zoos
A.Dangerous. B.Unhappy.
C.Natural. D.Easy.
答案B
解析推理判断题。根据文章第三段中的“The animals are kept together in small spaces,with no privacy and little opportunity for mental and physical exercise.”可知,这样的动物通常在精神上和身体上都受到摧残,都很不开心。故B项正确。
34.What do animals do in the state of zoochosis
A.Remain in cages. B.Behave strangely.
C.Attack other animals. D.Enjoy moving around.
答案B
解析推理判断题。根据文章第三段中的“A worldwide study of zoos...a sign of unhappiness and pain.”可知,这样的一些动物的情况都很反常,和在大自然里的情况完全不一样。故B项正确。
35.What does the author try to argue in the passage
A.Zoos are not worth the public support.
B.Zoos fail in their attempt to save animals.
C.Zoos should treat animals as human beings.
D.Zoos use animals as a means of entertainment.
答案A
解析推理判断题。作者主要描述了动物园圈养动物的不好的地方,建议我们不要再支持动物园这样的行为。故A项正确。
36.How does the author try to persuade readers to accept his argument
A.By pointing out the faults in what zoos do.
B.By using evidence he has collected at zoos.
C.By questioning the way animals are protected.
D.By discussing the advantages of natural habitats.
答案A
解析推理判断题。作者在组织本文的时候,主要通过指出动物园的错误做法来告诉我们动物园做法的不妥之处。故A项正确。

第二节 概要写作(满分25分)
阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
Punishing children is a controversial(争议的) topic.Everybody has different opinions about how to act to correct a child’s behaviour.People have disagreements about whether it is good for a child’s education to punish him.
The word “punish” means different things to different people.Punishment can be physical or emotional.Physical punishment is when the parent hits the child.On the other hand,emotional punishment is when the parent,in order to educate the child,doesn’t let him watch TV,go to play with his friends,or do things like that.
Although many surveys and studies have showed what the correct way is to raise a child,nobody has the answer or the truth.There is no such thing as agreed standard about raising a child,so I think it will be very difficult to get everyone to agree.
I think parents should love their child and give him the best education,but at the same time,they should punish the child properly if he deserves it.The parent’s goal is to have a good man or woman in society in the future,so sometimes you should do what is necessary to get your child to behave well.
参考范文
People have mixed opinions towards punishment to children.(要点1) There are mainly physical and emotional punishments.(要点2) As a matter of fact,it is difficult to find the agreed standard to raise a child.(要点3) Proper punishment can be instructive and necessary to children while love and education are the most important for us to make our kids behave well.(要点4)

Gold Coast family holidays are always great fun whether you are from Australia or from abroad.There are beautiful beaches,adventure parks,nature parks and so many more.
There are so many sights to see here.It is a pity to drive in a car and you’ll miss a great part of it.Australia is home to many animals and birds that can only be seen when moving slowly and going into the areas where they live.
When you are on a bicycle,you have the advantage of being able to stop whenever you want to see an interesting animal or bird that you have never seen before.It is a quieter mode(方式) of transportation as well,so you might even be able to take a picture.When you are on the beach,you can breathe that clean air and view the beauty of the water and sand.It is a totally different experience from either simply sunbathing or passing it in a car.
There are many choices of hiring a bicycle to experience the Gold Coast attractions.There are stores that will fit a bike perfectly to your size.These bikes for both adults and children are in many styles and colours to please any taste.If you have ever wanted to try a tandem bike (双人单车),now is your chance,because they have those too.
A bicycle hire on Gold Coast is something that everyone should try at least once.This is a wonderful chance for anyone who likes to cycle and it is also a cheap way to travel with your family.

My father was attached to gardening by birth.One of my earliest memories is following Dad barefoot around in the garden with both hands blackened from digging in the soil.The garden was a wonderland full of possibilities.
As Dad grew older,he still loved gardening.Even when he was diagnosed with cancer,he still planted all sorts of plants.Sometimes,I would come over to visit,and we would walk together in the garden.But then,something changed.Like the weeds that took over his garden,the cancer grew rapidly in Dad,and the doctor gave up.I stayed with Dad twenty-four hours a day and I found myself in all kinds of uncomfortable situations with Dad until I promised to care for the garden.
Though I had heard the words of the doctor,what really made me believe that Dad was dying was the state of his garden.That year,he only planted tomatoes.Too tired to weed them,he simply tied them with strong strings to the fence and let them be.It made me sad to see them ignored,so I would come over and water them once in a while,and remove the weeds.I still remember the day I picked the last tomato from the vine(藤).That day was one of the saddest I had ever experienced in my life.
Three years ago,I decided to plant my own garden.I decided I would start out with just a few tomatoes.That morning when I moved to the garden,something caught the corner of my eye and I had to smile.It was my eight-year-old son Nathan,standing barefoot in the soil,happily playing in soil.

Perhaps no one knows the power of imagination better than Chinese writer Liu Cixin.Until four years ago,Liu worked full-time as a computer engineer at a power plant in Shanxi Province.He wrote science fiction only in his spare time.But it was during this time that Liu’s imagination took flight.He did what he might never have the chance to do in real life—wander in space,fight with aliens,and visit planets light-years away.
But even with such a powerful imagination,Liu,55,probably hadn’t expected that he would become the first Asian to win the Hugo Award,science fiction’s highest prize,in 2015.Perhaps neither did he think that former US president Barack Obama would read his novel The Three-Body Problem,nor that on Nov 9 in Washington D.C.,he would win the 2018 Arthur C.Clarke Award for Imagination in Service to Society.It’s the first time a Chinese writer has ever won the award.
In his acceptance speech,Liu said that he owed his imagination to Arthur C.Clarke (1917—2008),a famous UK sci-fi author.He said that reading Clarke’s 1968 classic novel 2001:A Space Odyssey in the early 1980s had a great effect on him.
“My mind opened up like never before.I felt like a narrow river finally seeing the sea,” Liu said.“That night,in my eyes,the starry sky was completely different from the past.For the first time in my life,I was awed (使……敬畏) by the mystery of the universe.”
But no matter how far away Liu’s imagination takes him,somehow his novels always stay rational.
In The Three-Body Problem,for example,Liu tells a tale of aliens invading Earth.But unlike other alien stories,Liu talks more about relationships between civilisations(文明),rules of survival,and the meanings of life.And in The Wandering Earth,Liu looks ahead to the day when our solar system comes to an end and humans have to look for a new place to live.However,all his visions and solutions are based on “hard science”.Liu’s works aren’t simply daydreams.
【语篇导读】本文是一篇人物传记。文章讲述的是中国作家刘慈欣的成就与写作风格。
29.What do we know about Liu Cixin
A.He became a full-time writer when he was young.

How could we possibly think that keeping animals in cages in unnatural environments—mostly for entertainment purposes—is fair and respectful Zoo officials say they are concerned about animals.However,most zoos remain “collections” of interesting “things” rather than protective habitats.
Zoos teach people that it is acceptable to keep animals bored,lonely,and far from their natural homes.Zoos claim to educate people and save endangered species,but visitors leave zoos without having learned anything meaningful about the animals’ natural behaviour,intelligence,or beauty.Zoos keep animals in small spaces or cages,and most signs only mention the species’ name,diet,and natural range.
The animals’ normal behaviour is seldom noticed because zoos don’t usually take care of the animals’ natural needs.The animals are kept together in small spaces,with no privacy and little opportunity for mental and physical exercise.This results in unusual and self-destructive behaviour called zoochosis.A worldwide study of zoos found that zoochosis is common among animals kept in small spaces or cages.Another study showed that elephants spend 22 percent of their time making repeated head movements or biting cage bars,and bears spend 30 percent of their time walking back and forth,a sign of unhappiness and pain.
Furthermore,most animals in zoos are not endangered.Captive breeding(圈养繁殖) of endangered big cats,Asian elephants,and other species has not resulted in their being sent back to the wild.Zoos talk a lot about their captive breeding programmes because they do not want people to worry about a species dying out.In fact,baby animals also attract a lot of paying customers.Haven’t we seen enough competitions to name baby animals
Actually,we will save endangered species only if we save their habitats and put an end to the reasons people kill them.Instead of supporting zoos,we should support groups that work to protect animals’ natural habitats.
【语篇导读】本文讲述的是人类对于动物的圈养给动物带来了很多的伤害。建议我们不要再支持动物园这样的做法。
33.How would the author describe the animals’ life in zoos
A.Dangerous. B.Unhappy.
C.Natural. D.Easy.
答案B
解析推理判断题。根据文章第三段中的“The animals are kept together in small spaces,with no privacy and little opportunity for mental and physical exercise.”可知,这样的动物通常在精神上和身体上都受到摧残,都很不开心。故B项正确。
34.What do animals do in the state of zoochosis
A.Remain in cages. B.Behave strangely.
C.Attack other animals. D.Enjoy moving around.
答案B
解析推理判断题。根据文章第三段中的“A worldwide study of zoos...a sign of unhappiness and pain.”可知,这样的一些动物的情况都很反常,和在大自然里的情况完全不一样。故B项正确。

第二节 概要写作(满分25分)
阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
Punishing children is a controversial(争议的) topic.Everybody has different opinions about how to act to correct a child’s behaviour.People have disagreements about whether it is good for a child’s education to punish him.
The word “punish” means different things to different people.Punishment can be physical or emotional.Physical punishment is when the parent hits the child.On the other hand,emotional punishment is when the parent,in order to educate the child,doesn’t let him watch TV,go to play with his friends,or do things like that.
Although many surveys and studies have showed what the correct way is to raise a child,nobody has the answer or the truth.There is no such thing as agreed standard about raising a child,so I think it will be very difficult to get everyone to agree.
I think parents should love their child and give him the best education,but at the same time,they should punish the child properly if he deserves it.The parent’s goal is to have a good man or woman in society in the future,so sometimes you should do what is necessary to get your child to behave well.
参考范文
People have mixed opinions towards punishment to children.(要点1) There are mainly physical and emotional punishments.(要点2) As a matter of fact,it is difficult to find the agreed standard to raise a child.(要点3) Proper punishment can be instructive and necessary to children while love and education are the most important for us to make our kids behave well.(要点4)
