【导语】 埃菲尔铁塔是世界上最具代表性的纪念碑之一，拥有超过130年的悠久历史。由古斯塔夫·埃菲尔设计，这座铁结构不仅以其高度闻名，还有许多令人着迷的特点和维护细节。
The Eiffel Tower is one of the most iconic monuments in the entire world.Let's look at some of the most fascinating facts surrounding its more than 130 years' history.
1.It was designed by Gustave Eiffel.
[1]The Eiffel Tower was designed by the esteemed① engineer Gustave Eiffel，who ran a busy workshop in Levallois-Perret，near Paris.
2.The Eiffel Tower is made of iron.
[2]Gustave Eiffel had a reputation② for producing iron monuments which could withstand③ all weather conditions，and the Eiffel Tower was no exception.
3.The Eiffel Tower has three floors.
The Eiffel Tower has three floors in total，all of which are open to visitors.The first two floors are accessible④ by stair or by elevator，while the top level，or the summit⑤，must be climbed by step.
4.The Eiffel Tower has to be repainted every 7 years.
Under Gustave Eiffel's strict instructions，the Eiffel Tower must be repainted with a thick layer of protective paint every 7 years，in order to protect the iron from the corrosive(腐蚀性的)effects of the weather.
5.It has limited visitor capacity⑥.
[3]The Eiffel Tower might be a hefty(大而重的) monument，but it still does have a limited visitor capacity of 5，000，to be split⑦ over different levels at the same time，because of the tower's tapered (锥形的) shape.
6.It was once the tallest building in the world.
The Eiffel Tower was part of the “race to the sky” in the late 19th century，and it hit the record for the world's tallest building in 1889，at 986 feet.However，it only stayed in the top spot for four decades.

My friend and I have arrived in Katherine，a town in Australia's Northern Territory.[3]We're here to learn about the life and customs of the Aborigines，who are native to Australia. The Aboriginal population might be small，but its influence is still visible .For example，“Bondi” in “Bondi Beach” is an Aboriginal word [4]meaning “water breaking over rocks”.

It's almost time for me to say goodbye to Australia.I've enjoyed my time here very much.After being here for a while，my biggest impression is the complicated mix of peoples and cultures that make up the nation.[10]Although the main cultural influence since 1788 has been Western culture，minority cultures have also played a part in shaping the unique Australian culture，with many of the new cultural influences contributed by immigrants. It is said that now nearly half of all Australian citizens were either born overseas or have parents who were born overseas.

趁学校放假，下周我将去澳大利亚看望一位朋友。我计划用这个博客来记录我的经历和我所学到的东西。我已经对这个国家做了一番研究。(澳大利亚)位于赤道以南，在地球上很多其他国家的下方，常被非正式地称为“down under”。
我也看了一些标志性景点(的介绍)，比如悉尼歌剧院和大洋路，还有像可爱的考拉和袋鼠这样的动物(的资料)。我迫不及待地想见到所有的这一切！不过，因为我主修社会研究，所以我对结识澳大利亚人并体验他们的文化、饮食和生活方式更感兴趣。
10月1日
我在悉尼啦！自从我来到这里，朋友就带着我去吃了我的第一次露天烧烤，还与我分享了许多风格各异但很美味的佳肴，所以我对澳大利亚的第一印象都是关于食物的！很多澳大利亚的特色美食都源自英国，比如星期日烤肉。随处可见的面包店、快餐店、肉店、咖啡馆和餐馆提供了世界上顶级的美食体验。另一方面，受亚洲文化的影响，除了灵感源自中国的点心等澳大利亚版的食物以外，还引入了豆腐和亚洲药草。
10月3日
我和朋友已经到达了位于澳大利亚北部地区的凯瑟琳小镇。我们此行的目的是了解土著人的生活和习俗，他们是澳大利亚的原住民。土著人的人口可能很少，但其影响依旧可见。例如，“邦迪海滩”中的“邦迪”就是一个意为“拍打着岩石的海浪”的土著词汇。
为了在海洋中的这片辽阔的土地上生存，土著人必须和大自然保持密切的联系。这也体现在他们的音乐中，这些音乐歌颂着他们周围的自然世界和精神世界。他们的大多数乐器其实就是在地上找到的树枝，其中就有一种令人惊叹的、叫作迪吉里杜管的乐器。
迪吉里杜管由一根空心的树枝制成。吹奏迪吉里杜管时，你要把嘴靠在它的末端，一边吹一边振动你的嘴唇。与号不同，迪吉里杜管没有指孔。(所以)吹奏迪吉里杜管的演奏者必须靠改变嘴形才能改变音高。一名娴熟的演奏者可以长时间吹奏，不用停下来换气。为了达到这种程度，演奏者不停地通过鼻子吸气，同时通过他的嘴向迪吉里杜管呼气。我尝试着学习如何吹奏它，但经过几个小时的努力，我只能确信我永远都无法用这个乐器发出乐声！
10月6日
差不多是我跟澳大利亚说再见的时候了。在这里我过得十分愉快。在这里住了一段时间之后，给我留下最深刻印象的是不同种族和文化的交融组成了这个国家。尽管自1788年以来，主要的文化影响来自西方文化，但少数族裔文化在塑造独特的澳大利亚文化方面也发挥了作用，还有许多随着移民而来的新文化的影响。据说现在将近一半的澳大利亚公民要么是自己出生于海外，要么是他们的父母出生于海外。
就我个人而言，我最喜欢的是澳大利亚人本身。他们对待生活的态度坦率且无拘无束，他们的友善和热情让我无论走到哪里都有宾至如归的感觉。
在游历了澳大利亚之后，我不得不说我赞同他们的旅游口号：“澳大利亚，无与伦比。”

Every Friday，Ross Harrington heads for a shop to pick up deep-fried dim sim，kicking off his weekend routine.Dim sim is a variant of the traditional Chinese dumpling.Served in various ways，it's become a typical dish in Melbourne and beyond.
Australia's dim sim story began in 1942，when Chinese-Australian businessman William Chen Wing Young realized elderly foreigners who had come to Australia to work during the gold rush were left jobless.“They were like leftovers from the goldfields days.They didn't make it back home and were too old for heavy work，” says Chen.Meanwhile，Chen noticed how popular Cantonese dim sum had become in Australia.He considered if he could mass-produce siu mai，a steamed Chinese food，these men could sell them on food trucks.
However，siu mai differed widely from Australian words and was too much of mouthful for Australian.Chen called it “dim sim” instead，which has the same meaning as dim sum，but in a different Canton dialect，and named the business Wing Lee.But the food wasn't popular until his son stepped in，accidentally.
“While my son was on his way to deliver takeout，he stopped by the fish and chip shop of his friend Joe and left him a box of dim sim，” Chen says.Joe decided to deep fry it，as “that's the only way you could cook it in fish and chip shop”.The next day，Joe rang，saying all his mates were asking where he got the dim sim.That caused Chen to make fried dim sim and develop other cooking ways.The results were an immediate hit，making Wing Lee Dim Sim the first Chinese factory to commercialize a fast food for the masses.
“The dim sim is definitely a typical Australian food，” says Harrington.“Besides the flavor，it reminds us we're always a country that welcomes new cultures and cuisines.”
[语篇解读] 本文是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了dim sim在澳大利亚的发展。
1.What's Chen's motivation to produce dim sim at first
A.To make use of the leftovers.
B.To help needy people make a living.
C.To introduce Chinese food in Australia.
D.To satisfy the needs of the elderly Australians.
解析 B 推理判断题。根据文章第二段内容可知，陈最初制造点心的目的是帮助那些在淘金热期间来澳大利亚工作但现在因为年纪太大而失业的外国人谋生。故选B。
2.Why did Chen call siu mai “dim sim”？
A.To have it easily pronounced.
B.To copy the famous dim sum.
C.To make it close to his dialect.

3.What's the key factor in the success of Chen's business
A.Innovation. B.Teamwork.
C.Advertisement. D.Management.
解析 A 细节理解题。根据文章第四段中“Joe decided to deep fry it...and develop other cooking ways.The results were an immediate hit”可知，在得知人们对油炸后的dim sim非常喜欢后，陈开始制作油炸点心并发展出其他烹饪方法，结果一炮而红。由此可知，陈生意成功的关键在于创新。故选A。

A.To recommend a traditional Chinese dish.
B.To explain why Australians love dim sim.
C.To show the difference in global food cultures.

On a busy morning in May at 10 a.m，72-year-old Han Dengbu and his wife were getting ready to head back home on their three-wheeler，or Sanbengzi.
“When we bought it，it cost about 3，000 yuan ($414).We used it to pick up the kids and for farming.Now，we use it to spray pesticides on the seedlings in the village，” Han said.“Just twist the handle，and it goes.”
In Mangling town，Yanshi district in Luoyang，Henan Province，it's common for every household to own at least one tricycle.In just a few minutes，one can see dozens of tricycles whizzing by.
Sanbengzi got its name from the action of the driver standing on the pedals of the tricycle to ride on bumpy roads，appearing as if they were jumping.
The humble vehicle is now growing in popularity overseas.A Chinese video blogger in the United States shipped an electric tricycle from China for her father-in-law.The tricycle became a viral hit，with locals shooting photos and attracted by it.Some even offered to buy it.
The iconic “reverse，please be careful...” warning sound has echoed on foreign streets，and content featuring the tricycles has taken short-video platforms by storm.Even Hua Chunying，vice-minister of Foreign Ministry，and Xie Feng，China's ambassador to the US，have promoted them on social media.
Zhufeng，a leading manufacturer in Yanshi，was one of the first to begin exporting tricycles.In 2011，upon hearing about the thriving two-wheeler export business in coastal areas like Guangzhou in Guangdong Province，the company took its tricycles to the Canton Fair to try and enter the overseas market.At the fair，there were only one or two three-wheeler manufacturers，and being an exclusive supplier helped it secure foreign buyers.Meanwhile，as environmental concerns rise，electric three-wheelers，offering energy-efficient and low-carbon transportation，are consistent with the global trend toward low-carbon development.
[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述三轮车从中国远销海外。
5.What's the advantage of Sanbengzi according to Han Dengbu
A.It's eco-friendly.
B.It's cost-effective.
C.It's highly-efficient.
D.It's easily-operated.
解析 D 细节理解题。根据第二段“Just twist the handle，and it goes.”可知，三轮车只要拧一下就可以操作，即操作简单。故选D。
6.What can we learn from the tricycle's popularity overseas
A.Tricycles quickly took up foreign streets.
B.The vehicle deeply impressed the locals.
C.Social platforms made tricycles easy to access.
D.Many people were warned by the iconic sound.
解析 B 推理判断题。根据第五段“The tricycle...offered to buy it.”可知，三轮车深深吸引了当地人，令他们印象深刻。故选B。
7.Why was Zhufeng able to attract foreign buyers
A.Because the export business was booming.
B.Because it could mass-produce tricycles.
C.Because tricycles were rare at the fair.
D.Because the environment was valued.
解析 C 细节理解题。根据最后一段“At the fair...foreign buyers.”可知，Zhufeng能吸引外国买家是因为三轮车在展会上很少见。故选C。
8.Which can be a suitable title for this article
A.Sanbengzi：A New Way of Transportation
B.Tricycles：On the Fast Road to Global Success
C.Zhufeng：A Leading Manufacturer of Tricycles
D.Tricycles：A Solution to Environmental Issues
解析 B 标题归纳题。文章主要介绍了三轮车受到海外顾客的欢迎，远销海外，走向全球。故选B。
Ⅱ.阅读七选五(每小题2.5分，共12.5分)
Standing on a hill at Cliveden Gardens on a sunny winter day，its dark-green lake surrounded by centuries-old trees took my breath away. 1 It's just a local park near London that I'd never heard of during my eight years living in the UK.As I admired the peaceful garden，it taught me a lesson about the British culture of understatement (低调).
“The English landscape is more beautiful because its beauty is understated，” my friend Will said to me later as we walked through an exhibition at Tate Britain.He pointed to a painting of a peaceful countryside.“This is the landscape I grew up with”，he said.Unlike grand waterfalls or wild forests，this scenery doesn't shout about its beauty. 2-
I wonder if Chinese tourists will explore beyond London. 3 Indeed，Oxford and Cambridge and the beloved Lake District National Park are some iconic symbols of Britain.But it would be a pity if they miss out on the lesser-known parts of the English landscape.
4 I remember a straight-A classmate once telling me he “survived exams” and another friend from Oxford introducing himself as “studying in the countryside”.This modesty also has its mirror in Chinese culture.I remember my parents' telling me to work hard but not to exaggerate my achievements.Chinese culture is full of proverbs such as “real gold will shine sooner or later”，to encourage long-term devotion to one's chosen area of expertise.
Experiencing both cultures，I've realized that the English and Chinese both express achievements with understatement. 5 It reflects the unspoken charm in both British and Chinese traditions.And it's an off-the-beaten-path attraction well worth exploration.
A.I've been impressed by British humor all the time.
B.They tend to prefer places with a strong reputation.
C.But the more I looked，the more I saw its quiet elegance.
D.Cliveden isn't a famous holiday place where visitors flock.
E.Rather，its beauty is reserved for the local community only.
F.This mix makes me appreciate the unusual beauty of Cliveden.
G.Over the years，I've been familiarizing myself with British modesty.
[语篇解读] 本文是一篇议论文。文章主要描述了Cliveden Gardens(克利维登花园)的美丽以及花园带给作者的感悟。
1.D 根据上下文可知，本句主要说明了上文提到的Cliveden Gardens的情况，结合下文提到这只是一个公园，并不知名，故D项符合语境，故选D。
2.C 根据上文可知，本句为本段最后一句，故承接上文说明朋友对英国风景的看法，C项描述作者自己的看法，符合语境，故选C。
3.B 上文提到了中国游客是否会去伦敦以外的地方旅游的疑问，下文则提到了一些著名景点，可知本句是在说明中国游客的旅游特点，故B项符合语境，故选B。
4.G 根据下文可知，下文提到了牛津的朋友的谦逊，故G项符合语境，故选G。
5.F 根据上下文可知，作者经历了两种文化，且都强调了低调，可知本句承接上文说明文化对作者的影响，下文It指代Cliveden。故F项符合语境，故选F。

4.The Eiffel Tower has to be repainted every 7 years.
Under Gustave Eiffel's strict instructions，the Eiffel Tower must be repainted with a thick layer of protective paint every 7 years，in order to protect the iron from the corrosive(腐蚀性的)effects of the weather.
5.It has limited visitor capacity⑥.
[3]The Eiffel Tower might be a hefty(大而重的) monument，but it still does have a limited visitor capacity of 5，000，to be split⑦ over different levels at the same time，because of the tower's tapered (锥形的) shape.
6.It was once the tallest building in the world.
The Eiffel Tower was part of the “race to the sky” in the late 19th century，and it hit the record for the world's tallest building in 1889，at 986 feet.However，it only stayed in the top spot for four decades.

My friend and I have arrived in Katherine，a town in Australia's Northern Territory.[3]We're here to learn about the life and customs of the Aborigines，who are native to Australia. The Aboriginal population might be small，but its influence is still visible .For example，“Bondi” in “Bondi Beach” is an Aboriginal word [4]meaning “water breaking over rocks”.

It's almost time for me to say goodbye to Australia.I've enjoyed my time here very much.After being here for a while，my biggest impression is the complicated mix of peoples and cultures that make up the nation.[10]Although the main cultural influence since 1788 has been Western culture，minority cultures have also played a part in shaping the unique Australian culture，with many of the new cultural influences contributed by immigrants. It is said that now nearly half of all Australian citizens were either born overseas or have parents who were born overseas.

趁学校放假，下周我将去澳大利亚看望一位朋友。我计划用这个博客来记录我的经历和我所学到的东西。我已经对这个国家做了一番研究。(澳大利亚)位于赤道以南，在地球上很多其他国家的下方，常被非正式地称为“down under”。
我也看了一些标志性景点(的介绍)，比如悉尼歌剧院和大洋路，还有像可爱的考拉和袋鼠这样的动物(的资料)。我迫不及待地想见到所有的这一切！不过，因为我主修社会研究，所以我对结识澳大利亚人并体验他们的文化、饮食和生活方式更感兴趣。
10月1日
我在悉尼啦！自从我来到这里，朋友就带着我去吃了我的第一次露天烧烤，还与我分享了许多风格各异但很美味的佳肴，所以我对澳大利亚的第一印象都是关于食物的！很多澳大利亚的特色美食都源自英国，比如星期日烤肉。随处可见的面包店、快餐店、肉店、咖啡馆和餐馆提供了世界上顶级的美食体验。另一方面，受亚洲文化的影响，除了灵感源自中国的点心等澳大利亚版的食物以外，还引入了豆腐和亚洲药草。

我和朋友已经到达了位于澳大利亚北部地区的凯瑟琳小镇。我们此行的目的是了解土著人的生活和习俗，他们是澳大利亚的原住民。土著人的人口可能很少，但其影响依旧可见。例如，“邦迪海滩”中的“邦迪”就是一个意为“拍打着岩石的海浪”的土著词汇。
为了在海洋中的这片辽阔的土地上生存，土著人必须和大自然保持密切的联系。这也体现在他们的音乐中，这些音乐歌颂着他们周围的自然世界和精神世界。他们的大多数乐器其实就是在地上找到的树枝，其中就有一种令人惊叹的、叫作迪吉里杜管的乐器。
迪吉里杜管由一根空心的树枝制成。吹奏迪吉里杜管时，你要把嘴靠在它的末端，一边吹一边振动你的嘴唇。与号不同，迪吉里杜管没有指孔。(所以)吹奏迪吉里杜管的演奏者必须靠改变嘴形才能改变音高。一名娴熟的演奏者可以长时间吹奏，不用停下来换气。为了达到这种程度，演奏者不停地通过鼻子吸气，同时通过他的嘴向迪吉里杜管呼气。我尝试着学习如何吹奏它，但经过几个小时的努力，我只能确信我永远都无法用这个乐器发出乐声！
10月6日
差不多是我跟澳大利亚说再见的时候了。在这里我过得十分愉快。在这里住了一段时间之后，给我留下最深刻印象的是不同种族和文化的交融组成了这个国家。尽管自1788年以来，主要的文化影响来自西方文化，但少数族裔文化在塑造独特的澳大利亚文化方面也发挥了作用，还有许多随着移民而来的新文化的影响。据说现在将近一半的澳大利亚公民要么是自己出生于海外，要么是他们的父母出生于海外。
就我个人而言，我最喜欢的是澳大利亚人本身。他们对待生活的态度坦率且无拘无束，他们的友善和热情让我无论走到哪里都有宾至如归的感觉。
在游历了澳大利亚之后，我不得不说我赞同他们的旅游口号：“澳大利亚，无与伦比。”

Ⅰ.阅读理解(每小题2.5分，共20分)
A
Every Friday，Ross Harrington heads for a shop to pick up deep-fried dim sim，kicking off his weekend routine.Dim sim is a variant of the traditional Chinese dumpling.Served in various ways，it's become a typical dish in Melbourne and beyond.
Australia's dim sim story began in 1942，when Chinese-Australian businessman William Chen Wing Young realized elderly foreigners who had come to Australia to work during the gold rush were left jobless.“They were like leftovers from the goldfields days.They didn't make it back home and were too old for heavy work，” says Chen.Meanwhile，Chen noticed how popular Cantonese dim sum had become in Australia.He considered if he could mass-produce siu mai，a steamed Chinese food，these men could sell them on food trucks.
However，siu mai differed widely from Australian words and was too much of mouthful for Australian.Chen called it “dim sim” instead，which has the same meaning as dim sum，but in a different Canton dialect，and named the business Wing Lee.But the food wasn't popular until his son stepped in，accidentally.
“While my son was on his way to deliver takeout，he stopped by the fish and chip shop of his friend Joe and left him a box of dim sim，” Chen says.Joe decided to deep fry it，as “that's the only way you could cook it in fish and chip shop”.The next day，Joe rang，saying all his mates were asking where he got the dim sim.That caused Chen to make fried dim sim and develop other cooking ways.The results were an immediate hit，making Wing Lee Dim Sim the first Chinese factory to commercialize a fast food for the masses.
“The dim sim is definitely a typical Australian food，” says Harrington.“Besides the flavor，it reminds us we're always a country that welcomes new cultures and cuisines.”
[语篇解读] 本文是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了dim sim在澳大利亚的发展。
1.What's Chen's motivation to produce dim sim at first
A.To make use of the leftovers.
B.To help needy people make a living.
C.To introduce Chinese food in Australia.
D.To satisfy the needs of the elderly Australians.
解析 B 推理判断题。根据文章第二段内容可知，陈最初制造点心的目的是帮助那些在淘金热期间来澳大利亚工作但现在因为年纪太大而失业的外国人谋生。故选B。
2.Why did Chen call siu mai “dim sim”？
A.To have it easily pronounced.
B.To copy the famous dim sum.
C.To make it close to his dialect.
D.To distinguish it from Australian words.
解析 A 细节理解题。根据文章第三段中However，siu mai differed widely...called it ‘dim sim’ instead”可知，陈将siu mai叫作dim sim的目的是使其更容易发音。故选A。
3.What's the key factor in the success of Chen's business
A.Innovation. B.Teamwork.
C.Advertisement. D.Management.
解析 A 细节理解题。根据文章第四段中“Joe decided to deep fry it...and develop other cooking ways.The results were an immediate hit”可知，在得知人们对油炸后的dim sim非常喜欢后，陈开始制作油炸点心并发展出其他烹饪方法，结果一炮而红。由此可知，陈生意成功的关键在于创新。故选A。
4.What's the purpose of the text
A.To recommend a traditional Chinese dish.
B.To explain why Australians love dim sim.
C.To show the difference in global food cultures.
D.To tell how dim sim becomes popular in Australia.
解析 D 写作意图题。通读全文尤其根据第四段可知，文章主要围绕着dim sim在澳大利亚发展并受欢迎的经过来展开，所以文章的目的是告诉我们dim sim是怎样在澳大利亚流行起来的。故选D。
B
On a busy morning in May at 10 a.m，72-year-old Han Dengbu and his wife were getting ready to head back home on their three-wheeler，or Sanbengzi.
“When we bought it，it cost about 3，000 yuan ($414).We used it to pick up the kids and for farming.Now，we use it to spray pesticides on the seedlings in the village，” Han said.“Just twist the handle，and it goes.”
In Mangling town，Yanshi district in Luoyang，Henan Province，it's common for every household to own at least one tricycle.In just a few minutes，one can see dozens of tricycles whizzing by.
Sanbengzi got its name from the action of the driver standing on the pedals of the tricycle to ride on bumpy roads，appearing as if they were jumping.
The humble vehicle is now growing in popularity overseas.A Chinese video blogger in the United States shipped an electric tricycle from China for her father-in-law.The tricycle became a viral hit，with locals shooting photos and attracted by it.Some even offered to buy it.
The iconic “reverse，please be careful...” warning sound has echoed on foreign streets，and content featuring the tricycles has taken short-video platforms by storm.Even Hua Chunying，vice-minister of Foreign Ministry，and Xie Feng，China's ambassador to the US，have promoted them on social media.
Zhufeng，a leading manufacturer in Yanshi，was one of the first to begin exporting tricycles.In 2011，upon hearing about the thriving two-wheeler export business in coastal areas like Guangzhou in Guangdong Province，the company took its tricycles to the Canton Fair to try and enter the overseas market.At the fair，there were only one or two three-wheeler manufacturers，and being an exclusive supplier helped it secure foreign buyers.Meanwhile，as environmental concerns rise，electric three-wheelers，offering energy-efficient and low-carbon transportation，are consistent with the global trend toward low-carbon development.
[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述三轮车从中国远销海外。
5.What's the advantage of Sanbengzi according to Han Dengbu
A.It's eco-friendly.
B.It's cost-effective.
C.It's highly-efficient.
D.It's easily-operated.
解析 D 细节理解题。根据第二段“Just twist the handle，and it goes.”可知，三轮车只要拧一下就可以操作，即操作简单。故选D。
6.What can we learn from the tricycle's popularity overseas
A.Tricycles quickly took up foreign streets.
B.The vehicle deeply impressed the locals.
C.Social platforms made tricycles easy to access.
D.Many people were warned by the iconic sound.
解析 B 推理判断题。根据第五段“The tricycle...offered to buy it.”可知，三轮车深深吸引了当地人，令他们印象深刻。故选B。
7.Why was Zhufeng able to attract foreign buyers
A.Because the export business was booming.
B.Because it could mass-produce tricycles.
C.Because tricycles were rare at the fair.
D.Because the environment was valued.
解析 C 细节理解题。根据最后一段“At the fair...foreign buyers.”可知，Zhufeng能吸引外国买家是因为三轮车在展会上很少见。故选C。
8.Which can be a suitable title for this article
A.Sanbengzi：A New Way of Transportation
B.Tricycles：On the Fast Road to Global Success
C.Zhufeng：A Leading Manufacturer of Tricycles
D.Tricycles：A Solution to Environmental Issues
解析 B 标题归纳题。文章主要介绍了三轮车受到海外顾客的欢迎，远销海外，走向全球。故选B。
Ⅱ.阅读七选五(每小题2.5分，共12.5分)
Standing on a hill at Cliveden Gardens on a sunny winter day，its dark-green lake surrounded by centuries-old trees took my breath away. 1 It's just a local park near London that I'd never heard of during my eight years living in the UK.As I admired the peaceful garden，it taught me a lesson about the British culture of understatement (低调).
“The English landscape is more beautiful because its beauty is understated，” my friend Will said to me later as we walked through an exhibition at Tate Britain.He pointed to a painting of a peaceful countryside.“This is the landscape I grew up with”，he said.Unlike grand waterfalls or wild forests，this scenery doesn't shout about its beauty. 2-
I wonder if Chinese tourists will explore beyond London. 3 Indeed，Oxford and Cambridge and the beloved Lake District National Park are some iconic symbols of Britain.But it would be a pity if they miss out on the lesser-known parts of the English landscape.
4 I remember a straight-A classmate once telling me he “survived exams” and another friend from Oxford introducing himself as “studying in the countryside”.This modesty also has its mirror in Chinese culture.I remember my parents' telling me to work hard but not to exaggerate my achievements.Chinese culture is full of proverbs such as “real gold will shine sooner or later”，to encourage long-term devotion to one's chosen area of expertise.
Experiencing both cultures，I've realized that the English and Chinese both express achievements with understatement. 5 It reflects the unspoken charm in both British and Chinese traditions.And it's an off-the-beaten-path attraction well worth exploration.
A.I've been impressed by British humor all the time.
B.They tend to prefer places with a strong reputation.
C.But the more I looked，the more I saw its quiet elegance.
D.Cliveden isn't a famous holiday place where visitors flock.
E.Rather，its beauty is reserved for the local community only.
F.This mix makes me appreciate the unusual beauty of Cliveden.
G.Over the years，I've been familiarizing myself with British modesty.
[语篇解读] 本文是一篇议论文。文章主要描述了Cliveden Gardens(克利维登花园)的美丽以及花园带给作者的感悟。
1.D 根据上下文可知，本句主要说明了上文提到的Cliveden Gardens的情况，结合下文提到这只是一个公园，并不知名，故D项符合语境，故选D。
2.C 根据上文可知，本句为本段最后一句，故承接上文说明朋友对英国风景的看法，C项描述作者自己的看法，符合语境，故选C。
