Dozens of sea turtles swim past as I dive.Suddenly a diver cuts me off.Then another.“Hey！” I think.“Watch where you’re going！” Then I realise: These aren’t divers.They are sea lions! The creatures blow bubbles at me and the group of 11 kids I’m on vacation with, hitting us lightly on the backs.Not to bother them much, we tear ourselves away from the wonderland.
We take this trip to the Galapagos Islands, a group of tropical islands crossing the equator.Our hotel is a boat called the Eclipse that has a pool.Humans aren’t licensed to live on most of the islands.The only way people can experience the magic of this place and meet animals on all the islands is by “panga”．“Our small motorboat is more important than the Eclipse.It’s very safe，” says a local guide, Fielsch.Lack of human threat makes the animals friendly.“They don’t know enough to be scared of humans.”
Our group experience that first–hand.When we return after our diving adventure, we find sea lions lying next to our backpacks! Walking along the sand, we see more wildlife: seals, red crabs, orcas.
The following morning, we reach Fernandina Island, known for its volcano.Flightless birds called cormorants build nests on the rocks.Nearby are Galapagos penguins.Averaging about 19 inches in height, they’re the second smallest species of penguin in the world.“The islands are so curious,” says 12-year-old Harry.“You’ve got penguins living far from the frozen South Pole, and birds that don’t fly！”
As we ride back, six penguins stand like soldiers, seeming to say goodbye.It’s our last day; none of us wants to end the temporary trip and leave this place.We know this trip has been a milestone for us.A marked shift in our attitudes towards the natural world is underway.“The Galapagos Islands seem to break the world’s rules，” says Harry.“More than ever, I’m interested in saving the environment.These animals truly need our care，” his sister Hannah adds.
( )1．How does the author find the diving experience
A．Appealing. B．Disturbing.
C．Dangerous. D．Valuable.
( )2．What’s the function of the “panga”？
A．To protect people from danger.
B．To provide a shelter for local people.
C．To take the place of the Eclipse.
D．To transport people to each of the islands.
( )3．What’s special about Galapagos penguins
A．They are not able to fly.
B．They remain hidden from view.
C．They live in a tropical climate.
D．They’re the smallest of their kind.
( )4．Why is the trip considered a milestone for the author’s group
A．It expands their knowledge of the world.
B．It changes the way they think about nature.
C．It inspires them to protect the environment.
D．It enables them to interact with various wildlife.
【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者到加拉帕戈斯群岛旅行的经历。这次旅行对作者的团队来说是一个里程碑，它改变了他们对自然的看法。
1．A 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Not to bother them much, we tear ourselves away from the wonderland.”可知，作者认为这次潜水的地方简直是个仙境。由此可推知，作者认为这次潜水的经历是很有吸引力的。故选A项。

4．B 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“We know this trip has been a milestone for us. A marked shift in our attitudes towards the natural world is underway.”可知，这次旅行对作者的团队来说是一个里程碑，因为它改变了他们对大自然的认识。故选B项。

For breeding birds, timing is everything.Most species have just a narrow window to get the food they need to feed chicks.Now, after analysing data that span from 1975 to 2017, a science team suggests that as the climate warms, birds are not only breeding earlier, but their breeding windows are also narrowed — some by as many as 4 to 5 days.
On average, the beginnings and ends of the breeding periods are occurring earlier in the year.However, the ends are shifting back faster than the beginnings, resulting in an average breeding window that is 1.7 days shorter in 2017 than it was in 1975．During that same period, Finland’s average temperature rose by 0.8℃， suggesting many bird species are actively responding to changing temperatures, H llfors, who led the team, says.
“It’s good for the species if it’s able to follow the optimum conditions as the climate changes,” she says.However, the shorter breeding windows mean more birds are breeding earlier in the season — a risky time for chicks’ survival, especially if the weather turns suddenly cold.In addition, because many late-season species are shifting their breeding windows up, that could mean more competition for food and nesting sites early on, leaving some chicks to go hungry.
Lucyna Halupka, an ecologist at the University of Wroclaw, calls the study “a very important paper” because it’s one of the few ways to measure the breeding period duration.For 2 decades, she says, many scientists studying birds and climate change have looked only at the earliest, median(中间的), or mean laying dates for specific groups of birds.However, she reminds that because the study is limited to Finland, the findings may not apply universally; future studies should examine how breeding seasons move in other regions where the effect of climate change is different.They should also try to determine how shifting breeding windows affect population sizes, she says.
( )5．What did the scientists find
A．The weather in Finland becomes warmer.
B．It is becoming more difficult for birds to breed.
C．The birds in Finland spend fewer days breeding.
D．There isn’t enough food for some chicks in Finland.
( )6．What does the underlined word “optimum” in Paragraph 3 mean
A．Exact. B．Proper.
C．Changeable. D．Dangerous.
( )7．What is the significance of the study according to Lucyna
A．It is carried out in a different way.
B．It is helpful for people to protect the birds.
C．It opens a window for people to learn about these birds.
D．It demonstrates the living situation of the birds on the earth.
( )8．What is the best title for the text
A．Scientists Revealed the Secrets of Birds’ Breeding
B．Scientists Take Steps to Protect the Birds in the Wild
C．Birds Play a Role in Fighting Against Global Warming
D．Birds’ Breeding Windows Are Affected by Global Warming
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了芬兰一个研究小组的发现：受气候变暖的影响，一些鸟类的繁殖期缩短了。
5．C 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Now, after analysing data that span from 1975 to 2017, a science team suggests that as the climate warms，birds are not only breeding earlier, but their breeding windows are also narrowed — some by as many as 4 to 5 days.”以及第三段中的“However, the shorter breeding windows mean more birds are breeding earlier in the season…”可知，这些科学家发现受气候变暖的影响，一些鸟类的繁殖期缩短了。故选C项。
6．B 词义猜测题。根据第二段中的“During that same period, Finland’s average temperature rose by 0.8℃， suggesting many bird species are actively responding to changing temperatures, H llfors, who led the team, says.”提到了气温上升这一温度变化，这是一个不错的繁殖条件；
又根据第三段中的“‘It’s good for the species if it’s able to follow the optimum conditions as the climate changes，’ she says.However, the shorter breeding windows mean more birds are breeding earlier in the season — a risky time for chicks’ survival, especially if the weather turns suddenly cold.”可知，however表示转折，后面指出然而现实是鸟类繁殖期更短，因此，画线词所在句指如果能适应最适宜的条件，那是好事。故画线词意为“最适宜的”。故选B项。
7．A 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“…because it’s one of the few ways to measure the breeding period duration”可知，Lucyna Halupka把这项研究认为是“非常重要的一页”，是因为这个小组以不同的方式进行了这项研究。故选A项。
8．D 标题归纳题。通读全文，尤其是根据第一段中的“Now, after analysing data that span from 1975 to 2017, a science team suggests that as the climate warms, birds are not only breeding earlier, but their breeding windows are also narrowed — some by as many as 4 to 5 days.”可知，本文主要介绍了芬兰的一个研究小组发现，受气候变暖的影响，一些鸟类的繁殖期缩短了。因此，D项“鸟类的繁殖期受到全球变暖的影响”作为本文标题最佳。故选D项。(共105张PPT)

Harbin has witnessed a significant boom that has caused it to trend on social media last winter. By December 30, the city airport’s annual passenger throughput had gone beyond 3,000 million. According to a report, during the three-day New Year holiday, Harbin received about 3.05 million tourists and made income of 5.91 billion yuan, both of which reached record highs.
Harbin, also known as China’s “ice city”， is famous for its ice and snow culture. For over 60 years, the city has had a tradition of holding an annual ice lantern exhibition, presenting the creativity and skill of its artists. Recently, the Ice and Snow World, recognised by the Guinness World Records as the largest ice and snow park, is just one of many attractions in the city. It features amazing ice and snow sculptures, including replicas(复制品) of famous landmarks, animals, and cartoon characters. In addition, visitors can also enjoy different kinds of snow sports, such as ice skating, ice fishing, and sledding.
Harbin spared no effort to show its sincerity and hospitality(热情好客) to tourists. At the Ice and Snow World, a lot of new experiences have been provided, such as hovercrafts and bicycles on ice, Ferris wheels, and hot air balloons. Tourists were welcomed with live performances at the airport, and dressing rooms were set up for them to change into warm clothing. Local residents supported by travelling during off–peak hours to reduce traffic and offering tourists free rides. For those unable to book hotels, the government opened the Provincial People’s Congress Service Centre for low–cost stays.
“For individual travellers, a city’s infrastructure(基础设施) and public services form the foundation of tourism competitiveness.

【翻译】那就是我们试图通过这个节日做到的——把非原住民带到我们这里，与他们听见/分享我们的文化和历史，希望他们能觉得这个国家历史的一部分是他们自己尊严/身份的一部分。
【句式剖析】
本句中的“that they feel like that part of the nation’s history is part of their own dignity/identity”是一个同位语从句，在句中进一步解释前面的名词hope的内容。
【归纳拓展】
英语中表示抽象意义的名词(如news, idea, proposal, fact, doubt, thought, question, problem, hope, wish, suggestion, advice等)后面可跟同位语从句，来解释这些名词的具体内容。这时，that只起到引导作用， 不在从句中充当任何句子成分，但也不能省略。

1．increasingly 考查副词。句意：如今，可持续旅游越来越受欢迎，它不仅仅是观光，它还与人们和他们的文化建立联系，对我们访问的地方产生积极的影响，并为未来增加机会。此处应用副词increasingly修饰形容词popular。故填increasingly。
2．making 考查动词的–ing形式。句意：同上题。空格处为非谓语动词，和逻辑主语“Sustainable tourism”之间是主动关系，应用动词的–ing形式作状语。故填making。
3．an 考查冠词。句意：以环保的方式旅行是很重要的。空格处修饰名词manner，为可数名词单数，应用不定冠词修饰；空格后的environmentally以元音音素开头，应用冠词an。故填an。
4．has 考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意：乘飞机去旅游目的地，会大大增加我们的碳足迹，对全球环境有巨大的影响。空格处是主句谓语，结合从句的时态可知，此句陈述客观事实，应用一般现在时，“Getting to a tourist destination by airplane”作主语，谓语要用单数形式。故填has。
5．practical 考查形容词。句意：虽然不坐飞机不太现实，但我们可以尽可能乘坐当地的公共交通工具，甚至步行来帮助改善环境。空格处接在be动词之后应用形容词作表语。故填practical。
6．washed 考查动词的–ed形式。句意：当我们在酒店的时候，我们可以通过减少水的消耗和每天不清洗我们的床上用品和毛巾来减少我们的影响。分析句子结构可知，空格处作宾语补足语，宾语“our bedding and towels”与动词wash之间为逻辑上的被动关系，此处应用动词的–ed形式；短语have sth done意为“让某事被做”。故填washed。
7．be required 考查动词语态。句意：当参观寺庙或教堂时，可能会有严格的着装要求，我们应该穿着得体。空格处接在情态动词后，应用动词原形；从句主语“a strict dress code”和动词require之间是被动关系，应用被动语态。故填be required。
8．permission 考查名词。句意：在给当地人拍照之前，我们必须征得他们的同意，他们是人，而不是展品。空格处接在介词for后作宾语，应用名词形式，permission为不可数名词。故填permission。
9．who 考查定语从句。句意：同上题。分析句子结构可知，空格处引导非限制性定语从句，先行词为people，在从句中作主语，关系代词应用who。故填who。
10．In 考查介词。句意：总之，成为一名可持续发展的游客归根结底是对自然、文化和人的尊重。此处考查固定短语in summary意为“总之”。空格处置于句首，首字母大写。故填In。(共85张PPT)

□复习动词的-ed形式
(Review of Past Participles)
一、动词的-ed形式作定语
1．动词的-ed形式作定语，与其所修饰的词之间存在逻辑上的动宾关系，且表示该动作已经完成。
注意：
不及物动词的-ed形式常表示“完成”的动作，而不表示“被动”意义。如： fallen leaves 落叶；a retired teacher 一位退休的教师。
2．单个动词的-ed形式作定语，通常置于被修饰的词之前，而动词的-ed形式短语作定语，则需置于被修饰词之后。
We must adapt our thinking to the changed conditions.
我们必须让我们的思想适应变化的形势。
The paintings stolen from the museum haven’t been found.
博物馆失窃的画仍未找到。
3．及物动词的-ed形式作定语时，相当于一个含有被动语态的定语从句。
4．不及物动词的-ed形式作定语时，强调动作已经结束，相当于一个谓语为完成时的定语从句。
二、动词的-ed形式作表语
1．动词的-ed形式作表语与谓语动词构成系表结构，表示主语的性质、特征或状态。
He seemed embarrassed.他似乎很尴尬。
The question still remains unsettled.
问题仍未解决。
2．动词的-ed形式作表语和被动语态不同：用作表语的动词的-ed形式主要表示动作的完成或状态，相当于一个形容词，前面可加 quite, rather, well, poorly, much等程度副词修饰；被动语态的动词的-ed形式，动作意味很强，句子的主语是动作的承受者，其后常跟“by＋动作的执行者”。
3．除了be以外，get, seem, look, appear, sound, feel, remain 等其他系动词也可接动词的-ed形式作表语。
三、动词的-ed形式作宾语补足语
1．动词的-ed形式作宾语补足语，表示被动的动作或完成的意义，宾语与动词的-ed形式之间存在逻辑上的动宾关系。
The girl sat there with her eyes closed.
这个女孩闭着眼睛坐在那里。
2．少数动词如change, go, lose 等的-ed形式作宾语补足语时，表示完成或宾语所处的状态，宾语与动词的-ed形式之间不存在逻辑上的动宾关系。
She found her hometown completely changed when she came back from abroad.
当她从国外回来后，发现她的家乡完全改变了。
3．表示感觉或心理状态的动词或词组(如see, watch, observe, look at, hear, listen to, feel, notice等)接动词的-ed形式(短语)作宾语补足语，意为 “感受到某人或某事被……”。
Having passed all the tests, she felt a great weight taken off her mind.
通过了所有的考试，她觉得心里得以极大地放松。
4．表示“使……”意义的动词(如have, make, get, keep, leave 等)接动词的-ed形式(短语)作宾语补足语时，意为“使某人或某事被……”。
He was trying to make himself understood.
他正在努力使人们明白他的意思。
5．动词的-ed形式作宾语补足语时，如果句子变为被动语态， 这时动词的-ed形式就在新的句子中成了主语补足语， 说明主语所处的状态。
The result of the election was not made known to the public until last Thursday.
选举的结果直到上周四才正式对外公布。
