(2018·合肥高三质检)If you have the opportunity to visit some places in New Zealand, then the list below is our recommendation.
Fiordland National Park
This park is part of the South Westland World Heritage Area and is New Zealand’s largest national park and one of the largest in the world. The scenery in Fiordland is nothing short of extremely beautiful, with steep mountains, wild waterfalls, and abundant rain forests. Being able to come back and forth in its deep bay attracts most of the visitors.
The area has some of the world’s greatest walks including the world famous Milford Track, which was described as the finest walk in the world in the early twentieth century.
Abel Tasman National Park
Abel Tasman may be New Zealand’s smallest national park, but the attractions are huge. Located in one of New Zealand’s sunniest spots, the area also has the best beaches in the country.
The popular Abel Tasman Walk is a great way to see this park. It takes 3-5 days to complete. Sea taxis are also available and can drop you off at any number of beaches within the park.
Rotorua
Accessible from New Zealand’s biggest city, Auckland, Rotorua is famous for its volcanic activities. Rotorua is also famous for its plentiful lakes which are great for swimming and fishing. The surrounding area contains plenty of native bushes and some famous walks.
Rotorua is also the best area in the country to experience and learn about Maori culture.
Mt Cook National Park
Mt Cook as well as the surrounding area is an alpine(高山的) park within the World Heritage listed in South Westland. The biggest peaks in all of Australasia are here. The park doesn’t contain many trees or plants due to the altitude. Walks range from a twohour walk to difficult tracks suitable for experienced mountaineers only.
A helicopter or plane ride gives visitors excellent views of the mountains with the option of landing at the top of Tasman Glacier, a true permanent snowcovered alpine environment.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇应用文,主要介绍了新西兰值得游玩的几个地方。
1.The most impressive experience in Fiordland National Park may be________.
A.rock climbs B.forest camps
C.water jumps D.boat trips
D 解析:推理判断题。根据Fiordland National Park部分第一段尾句可知,能够在它的深海湾里来回穿梭会吸引大多数的游客;据此可以判断,在Fiordland国家公园,令人印象最深刻的经历是乘船旅行,故D项正确。
2.If you are interested in folk customs, you can go to visit________.
A.Fiordland National Park
B.Rotorua
C.Mt Cook National Park
D.Abel Tasman National Park
B 解析:细节理解题。根据Rotorua部分第二段可知,Rotorua也是全国最好的学习毛利文化的地方;如果你对民间风俗感兴趣,可以去那里,故B项正确。

(2018·湖南六校联盟高三联考)I told my friend Graham that I often cycle two miles from my house to the town centre but unfortunately there is a big hill on the route. He replied, “You mean fortunately.” He explained that I should be glad of the extra exercise that the hill provided.
My attitude to the hill has now changed. I used to complain as I approached it but now I tell myself the following. This hill will exercise my heart and lungs. It will help me to lose weight and get fit. It will mean that I live longer. This hill is my friend. Finally I comfort myself with the thought of all those silly people who pay money to go to a gym and sit on stationary exercise bicycles when I can get the same value for free. I have a smile of satisfaction as I reach the top of the hill.
Problems are there to be faced and overcome. We cannot achieve anything with an easy life. Helen Keller was the first deaf and blind person to gain a university degree. Her activism and writing proved inspirational. She wrote, “The character cannot be developed with ease. Only through experiences of suffering can the soul be strengthened, vision cleared, ambition inspired and success achieved.”
One of the main determinants of success in life is our attitude towards adversity. From time to time we all face hardships, problems, accidents and difficulties. Some are of our making but many are no fault of our own. While we cannot choose adversity, we can choose our attitude towards it.
Douglas Bader was 21 when in 1931 he had both legs cut off following a flying accident. He was determined to fly again and went on to become one of the leading flying aviators in the Battle of Britain with 22 aerial victories over the Germans. He was an inspiration to others during the war. He said, “Don’t listen to anyone who tells you that you can’t do this or that. That’s nonsense. Make up your mind, and you’ll never use crutches or a stick, and then have a go at everything. Go to school, and join in all the games you can. Go anywhere you want to. But never, never let them persuade you that things are too difficult or impossible.”
The biographies of great people are full of examples of how they took steps to overcome the difficulties they faced. The common thread(思路) is that they did not become depressed. They chose their attitude. They chose to be positive. They took on the challenge. They won. Nevertheless, there is still the problem of how you change your attitude towards adversity.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。“我”骑自行车去镇中心时要经过山地,“我”经历了从开始的抱怨到将山地当作锻炼契机的过程。人生之旅也是如此,我们要有战胜生活中的艰难的勇气。

C
Whenever something looks interesting or beautiful, there is a natural desire of us to capture(捕捉) and preserve it—which means, in this day and age, that we are likely to reach for our phones to take a picture.
Though this would seem to be an ideal solution, there are two big problems associated with taking pictures. Firstly, we are likely to be so busy taking pictures that we forget to look at the world whose beauty and interest encourage us to take a photograph in the first place. And secondly, because we feel the pictures are safely stored on our phones, we never get around to looking at them, so sure are we that we’ll get around to them one day.
The first person to notice the problems was the English art critic(评论家), John Ruskin. He was a keen traveler who realized that most tourists make a poor job of noticing or remembering the beautiful things they see. He argued that humans have a natural tendency to respond to beauty and desire to have it, but there are better and worse expressions of this desire. At worst, we get into buying souvenirs or taking photographs. But, in Ruskin’s eyes, there’s just one thing we should do—attempting to draw the interesting things we see, regardless of whether we happen to have any talent for doing so.
Ruskin said, “Drawing can teach us to see: to notice properly rather than gaze absentmindedly.In the process of recreating with our own hands what lies before our eyes, we naturally move from a position of observing beauty in a loose way to one where we acquire a deep understanding of its parts.”
Ruskin deplored the blindness and hurry of modern tourists, especially those who prided themselves on traveling around the whole Europe in a week by train, “No changing of places at a hundred miles an hour will make us stronger, happier, or wiser. There was always more in the world than men could see, if they ever walked slowly. The really precious things are thoughts and sights, not pace.”
【解题导语】 本文主要讨论了旅游中如何享受美景以及游客普遍存在的问题。
8.According to Paragraph 2, when taking pictures, people tend to ________.
A.forget to appreciate something attractive on the spot
B.find it hard to learn skills of taking good pictures
C.find a good way to keep things in their minds
D.have a chance to meet the challenge of new technology
A 解析:细节理解题。根据文章第二段的第二句可知,人们忙着拍照而忘了欣赏风景。
9.According to Ruskin, what should travelers do to best express their appreciation of and desire for something beautiful?
A.To speak it out openly.
B.To photograph it instantly.
C.To purchase it immediately.
D.To paint it directly.
D 解析:细节理解题。根据第三段的最后一句可知,Ruskin认为,旅游者把自己看到的美景直接画下来就是对美景欣赏的最好表达。
10.From the fourth paragraph, we can infer that Ruskin encourages us to be__________.
A.considerate and determined
B.active and adventurous
C.creative and thoughtful
D.sensitive and ambitious
C 解析:推理判断题。根据第四段的“In the process of recreating with our own hands ... we acquire a deep understanding of its parts.”可推知,Ruskin鼓励我们要有创造性,对景观要有深刻的理解。
11.The underlined word “deplored” in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to “________”.
A.appreciated B.criticized
C.favored D.ignored
B 解析:词义猜测题。根据最后一段的“the blindness and hurry of modern tourists”并结合Ruskin的主张可推知,deplore意为“批判,不赞成”,故选B。
七选五

How to Exercise Every Week Consistently
In my experience people, especially me, do not work out consistently for two reasons: time and method.
·Time
Three weeks ago I was finding every excuse in the book to justify why I did not have a chance to exercise. In my mind all my reasons are valid, and I am sure yours are too.
Here is a little secret, both you and I have more than enough time to work out. 1.________. If you want to exercise more or finish your todolist, you have to start planning well.
·The method
2.________. For me, two options came to mind, before work, and after work. During the morning I go to work, and after work I do not have the energy.
Since my mornings and evenings are not available, I changed my way and looked at my work day. It turns out that 3.________. I realized that my job has access to a gym, and decided to switch my lunch hour for a workout break.
