Hi Danny,
Greetings frm the Great Barrier Reef! I’m riding n a sailing bat with sme relatives as I write this. We’re diving here all next week. The reef is lcated in the Cral Sea that is ff the nrtheast cast f Australia.
The reef is made up f many crals. Crals are very hard and made f many tiny animals called “plyps” that lk like underwater flwers. The crals need help t eat. They have a special relatinship with ther small animals, “algae” (藻类), which take in sunlight and make energy fr the crals. It’s the algae that give clr t the crals. Because algae need sunlight, the crals are very clse t the surface f the water.
Tgether, the many crals create a magical envirnment. They make a hme fr the animals that live in the sea. When I went diving the ther day, I saw all types f different animals—dlphins, turtles (海龟) and sea snakes. I was surprised at being able t see sme fish I see nly in mvies, like clwn fish (小丑鱼). As I am diving, I can feel the spirit f this magical place. It seems that these animals aren’t surprised t see me. Maybe they think I’m anther fish!
Sadly, accrding t scientists, the Great Barrier Reef is dying because the water is getting warmer due t glbal warming. As the cean gets warmer, the algae that live in the crals are cut ff frm the fd they need fr making energy. As a result, they leave the crals, and the crals die and lse their clr. We see many dead white crals when we dive. We need t stp glbal warming and keep the water frm getting htter!
See yu sn,
Glria
【文章大意】这是一篇应用文。文章为作者写给Danny的一封信, 信中介绍了位于澳大利亚东北海岸的珊瑚海的大堡礁。介绍了大堡礁的环境, 以及由于全球变暖而导致大堡礁死亡的问题。

Ⅱ. 阅读填句
I recently received an e-mail frm a wise speaker. In his e-mail, he pinted ut sme bstacles that lie ahead n the way t success. 1
Laziness. Even with a right gal and the curage t pursue it, yur effrts will be in vain unless yu’re willing t take actin. 2 Pst yur visins and plans in yur bedrm, bathrm and ffice. Share them with thers. In that case, everyne culd be yur supervisr. Make yurself respnsible and becme the master f yur destiny.
Dubt. 3 Life and wrk can be hard and even cruel. Remember, the race is nt fr the smartest but fr thse wh dn’t give up. Rather than allwing dubt t stand in yur path, yu we it t yurself t remain cnfident in yur plan. 4
Dishnesty. As yu begin t be successful, yu’ll tend t lie, exaggerate(夸大), and cheat in rder t mve yur agenda frward. Hwever, taking the easy way f dishnesty will make yu becme the persn yu hate. 5 True success cmes when yu are a persn f yur wrd, when yu have a pure cnscience(良心), and when yu have nt cheated thers n yur way t the tp.

【文章大意】这是一篇说明文。文章向读者传达了成功路上需克服的几个障碍: 懒惰、不自信以及不诚实。
1. 【解析】选B。空格位于段尾。分析文章的篇章结构可知, 这篇文章采用的是总分形式, 这句话起承上启下的作用, 引出下面作者即将论述的三点内容。空格前一句句意为“在他的电子邮件里, 他指出了成功路上需要克服的一些障碍”。选项B(他的想法非常深刻且有洞察力, 于是我引用了它们。)与上一句句意相符, 且其中的His与上句中的he形成很明显的呼应关系, 故选B。
2. 【解析】选C。空格位于段中。由空格所在段落的第一句话“Laziness”可知, 这段内容是与懒惰紧密相关的。空格前一句句意为“即使目标正确, 也有勇气去实现它, 如果你不采取行动, 你的努力也将会变得无价值。”选项C(写下你的目标和你要实现那些目标需要采取的行动)与上句句意吻合。并且其中的gals与the actin steps都可与上一句形成呼应关系。故选C。
3. 【解析】选F。空格位于段中。虽然空格位于段中, 但是第一句是本段中心词。所以第一句会紧密围绕中心词展开。由“Dubt”可知, 这段主要讲怀疑。选项F(一旦你做了决定, 怀疑就像一条蠕虫能消耗掉你成功的能力)是对Dubt的解释, 并且这句话主语dubt也与中心词呼应。故选F。
4. 【解析】选E。空格位于段尾。空格上一句句意为“不要让怀疑挡在你的路上, 你要自己决定保证对你的计划充满自信。”选项E(需要的时候可以调整它, 但是要记住成功最终会是你自己的。)与上句句意吻合, 且其中的it指代上句中的plan, “always knw that success will ultimately be yurs”与上句中的“Rather than allwing dubt t stand in yur path”也呼应。故选E。
5. 【解析】选D。空格位于段中。由首句“Dishnesty”可知, 这段内容主要与“不诚实”有关。选项D(最后, 它会造成比讲真话带来的风险更多的问题。)是描述的Dishnesty的后果, 并且其中的“telling the truth”与Dishnesty形成反义呼应。故选D。
