语篇解读：一位柬埔寨摄影爱好者试图通过摄影出书的方式唤醒本国人保护野生动物的意识。
1．which 先行词为“a photo project”，后面定语从句缺乏主语，所以用which引导。
2．carefully 此处为副词修饰动词作状语。
3．to educate hope to do sth.“希望做某事”。
4．development 空格处以及后面的部分是先行词effect的定语从句，而从句中又缺少主语，所以用develop的名词形式development。
5．is considered 主语it与consider之间存在被动关系，时态为一般现在时，主语为单数第三人称形式，所以用is considered。
6．of lack作名词时，有词组(the) lack of sth.表示缺乏某物。
7．more 根据前后语境，尤其是“and fewer people”可知这里需要用many的比较级形式，强调过去和现在情况的对比。
8．is 此处所述是一般情况，动名词短语作主语，后面动词用单数形式。
9．the 前一句已经提到了这本书，此处为第二次提到，故用定冠词the，表示特指。

语篇解读：本文是一篇人物介绍，主要介绍了宋朝的著名诗人陆游，他是宋朝最长寿的诗人。本文主要介绍了他长寿的原因。
1．why 分析句子结构可知，空格处引导定语从句，先行词是reason，关系词在从句中作原因状语，故用why引导此定语从句。

3.longest 根据空格前的定冠词the可知，此处表示寿命最长的诗人，应用最高级。故填longest。
4．an 此处表示泛指，意为“作为一名顾问”， adviser是可数名词，且其读音以元音音素开头，故用不定冠词an。
5．started 结合上下文可知，文章谈论的都是过去的事情，因此空格处应用一般过去时。故填started。
6．using 分析句子结构可知，该句的谓语是“could shoot down”，故空格处应用非谓语形式。由于use与主语Lu You之间构成主动关系，故用动词的现在分词形式作方式状语。故填using。
7．called call与被修饰词body building之间构成被动关系，应用其过去分词形式作后置定语。故填called。
8．times 空格处表示时代，应用time的复数形式。故填times。
9．skillful 空格处修饰名词词组health method，故应用其形容词形式作定语，表示“一种有技巧的健康方式”。故填skillful。
10．For 此处指“对于陆游来说，长啸帮助他摆脱了疾病和药物”。空格处表示“对于……”，故用介词For。

I learned from the Internet that you'll hold a summer camp in Canada and I'm really interested in it. I know that you welcome students from different countries and I'd like to take part in it.
First of all, as a Chinese high school student,
I've been learning English for ten years, and I can speak it fluently. What is more, I'll be ableto tell students from other countries about China and learn about their countries as well.
I hope I will be accepted as a member of your summer camp and I'm looking forward to your early reply!
