一、考题回顾
二、考题解析
【教学设计】
Teaching aims:
Knowledge aim:
Students will master the meaning and usage of the structure “be doing” through reading the passage.
Ability aim:
Students will apply the “be doing” to communicate with each other in real situation.
Emotional aim:
Students will be more interest in learning English.
Key and difficult point:
Key Point: Students will master how to improve reading abilities through finding main idea and details.
Difficult Point: Students will apply the “be doing” to communicate with each other in real situation.
Teaching procedure:
Step 1: Warming-up
1. Greetings.
2. Play a riddle and students guess the animals, such as “long nose, big ears and strong body——elephant”, then lead to the topic of “let’s go to the zoo to see what animals are doing”.
Step 2: Pre-reading
1. According to the title, students have a prediction about what kinds of animals are mentioned in the passage.
Step 3: While-reading
1. Fast reading: students read the passage fast and figure out what kinds of animals are mentioned in the passage then make a list.
2. Careful reading: students read the passage carefully and answer the question: what are the animals doing? Then fill in the blanks.
1. How do you improve students’ interest in learning English?
2. What principle should you use in the post-reading step?答案：解析：1.
In the process of English teaching, teachers should enrich the teaching approaches, not only teach students through "listening, speaking, reading", but also integrate situational teaching, so that students can feel the diversity of teaching and learning.
Besides, teachers can make use of the form of cooperative study and organize various practice activities in the classroom to create an atmosphere of mutual assistance and cooperation, so that students have positive sense of learning.
2.
First, we should persist in the communicative principle. In the production step of reading
class, students should be organized in groups to cultivate their speaking ability and communicative ability. In this way, we can reach the New Curriculum Standard.
Then, we should insist on the truth principle. That means we should provide more real materials that are closet to students’ real life, such as situation creation like what I did in this class. In this way, students’ interest can be aroused and they can apply what they’ve learned in real communication. -

Modern Sun Worshippers People travel for a lot of reasons.Some tourists go to see battlefields or religious shrines.Others are looking for culture,or simply want to have their pictures taken in front of famous places.But most European tourists are looking for a sunny beach to lie on. Northern Europeans are willing to pay a lot of money and put up with a lot of inconveniences for the sun because they have so little of it.Residents of cities like London,Copenhagen,and Amsterdam spend a lot of their winter in the dark because the days are so short,and much of the rest of the year in the rain.This is the reason why the Mediterranean has always attracted them.Every summer,more than 25 million people travel to Mediterranean resorts and beaches for their vacation.They all come for the same reason:sun! The huge crowds mean lots of money for the economies of Mediterranean countries.Italy's30,000 hotels are booked solid every summer.And 13 million people camp out on French beaches,parks,and roadsides.Spain's long sandy coastline attracts more people than anywhere else.37 million tourists visit yearly,or one tourist for every person living in Spain. But there are signs that the area is getting more tourism than it can handle.The Mediterranean is already one of the most polluted seas on earth.And with increased tourism,it's getting worse.The French can't figure out what to do with all the garbage left by campers around St.Tropez.And in many places, swimming is dangerous because of pollution. None of this,however,is-spoiling anyone's fun.The Mediterranean gets more popular every year with tourists.Obviously,they don't go there for clean water and solitude.They tolerate traffic jams and seem to like crowded beaches.They don't even mind the pollution.No matter how dirty the water is,the coastline still looks beautiful.And as long as the sun shines,it's still better than sitting in the cold rain in Berlin,Iondon,or Oslo.The latter half of the last sentence in Paragraph 3"or one tourist for every person living in Spain" means that every year,the number of tourists who visit Spain is almost the same as the people living in that country.
A:Right
B:Wrong
C:Not mentioned答案：A解析：由文章第一段第三句话“Others are looking for culture , or simply want to have their pictures taken in front of famous places.”可知，一些旅游者是为了追寻文化之源，或仅仅是想在名胜之地请人给他们拍几张照。而该题句意是，人们旅行时，喜欢在名胜之地自己给自己拍照。因此该叙述是错误的。故选B。
由文章第一段最后一句话“But most European tourists are looking for a sunny beach to lie on."可知，大多数欧洲游客是为了寻找阳光充足的海滩晒日光浴。而该题句意是，作者似乎暗示欧洲人去旅游是因为他们想参观一些历史遗迹或宗教景区。因此该叙述是错误的。故选B。
由文章第二段第二句话“Residents of cities like London , Copenhagen , and Amsterdam spend a lot of their winter in the dark because the days are so short,and much of the rest of the year in the rain.”可知，由于冬季白天很短，伦敦、哥本哈根和阿姆斯特丹的居民在冬季的大部分时间里都是在昏暗中度过的，而其余的季节又都是阴雨连绵的。文中并没有提到伦敦、哥本哈根和阿姆斯特丹因为没有好的名胜古迹和风景区而不适合人们居住。故选C。
由文章第三段第四句话“Spain 's long sandy coastline attracts more people than anywhereelse.”可知，西班牙那漫长的海岸线更成了众多游客慕名前往的地方。因此西班牙比其他国家更加吸引游客，而不是法国。故选B。
由文章第三段第二句话“Italy 's 30 , 000 hotels are booked solid every summer.”可知，每年夏季，意大利的3万家旅馆全部客满。故选A。
由文章第三段最后一句话“37 million tourists visit yearly , or one tourist for every personliving in Spain.”可知，每年有3700万游客去西班牙旅游，换句话说，旅游者与西班牙居民的人数相当。故选A。
由文章最后一段最后三句话可知，被污染的水并不能影响游客们的兴致，只要阳光普照，地中海地区就比阴冷多雨的北欧好得多。故选B。 -

Travelling Is My Life
1. I am very fortunate.I am now a much-travelled woman,but until I was 20 I had never been anywhere more remote than Londan .And coming from a country village in the far south I was struck by the architectural beauty of the capital.I understood immediately why foreign tourists descend on it in their thousands.
2. The first time I traveled abroad was when I went over to France on a cross Channel ferry.It was a school trip to Paris for a week,and I thought it was wonderful.The sights,the sounds,the smells,the language-they were all wonderful. I had never experienced anything like it,and the week had a profound effect on me.It gave me the travel bug!
3. As a young girl I was always shy of strangers.I certainly had no plans to travel a lot.I left school and trained as a journalist on a local paper.and somehow slowly began to concentrate on travel .I had a procession of jobs before I got this one with the magazine.Although I still write articles on other subjects,my main occupation now is writing travel and tourism.
4. I can appreciate now why tourists go halfway across the world to visit a place.I was brought up in the vicinity of a major British tourist attraction,but never went there myself and couldn't understand foreign visitors.You read about something halfway across the world and want to see it for yourself. I remember that was just why I went walking in the Himalayas and looked up at Everest, and why I went on a strange but wonderful cruise in the Antarctic .You can read about a place,but it is totally different to be there,to see,feel,smell and hear everything yourself.
5. Perhaps not surprisingly I have been to a lot of popular tourist resorts in Europe,Africa,the Far East and the West Indies,for example.But I like to try and find those unknown,inaccessible places-not only for myself,but also for people who want something different. Sometimes it's frightening .I remember visiting a village on the side of a steep hill in Bolivia where the inhabitants stood motionless as I walked in and didn't move until I walked out.
6. The career of the previous travel writer on the magazine I work for now came to an abrupt end when he quite simply disappeared somewhere in South America.He was on a special journey and had told someone at his hotel that he had found a native to ferry him up a river to some remote villages in the jungle.Nothing has been heard from him since then.One day I'd like to try and find out what happened to him.The most interesting places that I like to visit are______.
A: those unexpected,unknown and inaccessible places.
B: a travel writer for a famous magazine tells us a little about her life and profession
C: never been anywhere
D: a journalist on a local paper
E: been to London the remotest place for me at that time
F: tells us some interesting tourist resorts all over the world答案：A解析：本段大意为：初次品味旅游。
本段大意为：成为一名旅游作家之路。
本段大意为：旅游者的精神。
本段大意为：总在寻找不在预料中的（旅游）地方。
总体推断法。通读全文，可以发现这篇文章是一名著名杂志的旅游作家写的一篇关于她的生活和职业的文章。故可以确定B为正确答案。
逻辑推理法。详见文章第一段第二句“...but until I was 20 I had never been any-where more remote than London.”可以逻辑推理出；20岁前，作者去过的最远的地方是伦敦。故可以确定E为正确答案。
直接定位法。详见文章第三段第三句“I left school and trained as journalist on a local paper...”可以直接确定D为正确答案。
句意剖析法。详见文章第五段第一、二句，意为：我曾去过许多著名的旅游胜地，这并不令人惊讶，但我喜欢去那些未知的、难以接近的地方。可以确定A为正确答案。 -

Touring the Antarctic Brings Danger
1 Ship tourism to Antarctica is on the rise.More than 35,000 tourists are expected to visit Antarctica
this spring and summer. In 1992一1993,6,750 visited Antarctica,according to the Antarctic Treaty
Secretariat. All of this tourism,however,is posing great danger to both tourists and the environment.
2 Among the tourist ships that visit the continent,the Explorer,a Canadian ship,was one of the first.
Launched in 1969,it was built to ferry tourists to Antarctica.Last week,however,it became the first commer-
cial passenger ship to sink beneath the polar region's waters.Fortunately,all of the passengers and crew
members were evacuated（撤离）from the ship. However , the sunken ship threatens the Antarctic'S fragile
environment.The ship was estimated to be holding 48,000 gallons of marine diesel fuel.
3 The accident was not unanticipated.Both the US and the UK had warned at a conference of Antarc-
tic treaty nations in May that the tourism situation in the region was a potential disaster. The US said in a pa-
per,"People should take a hard look at tourism issues now,especially those related to vessel safety.""The
increasing number of ships operating in Antarctica means that ships are under greater pressures to meet the
time slots for visiting key sites,"the British government wrote in a paper at the meeting of treaty nations.
4 Although the Antarctic seas are relatively calm,floating ice poses a potential threat to ships.The
owner of the Explorer attributed the sinking to a fist-size hole in the hull created by ice.Many of the other
large cruise ships now visiting Antarctica have little or no ice reinforcement in their designs.Such ships
generally can only come to the continent at the height of summer. But the tourist rush is pushing vessels into
dangerous situations.
5 As a natural frontier,Antarctica is in a legal muddle.There are no obvious answers as to who is re-
sponsible for dealing with the threat that tourism may cause to human life and the environment.
6 Jim Barnes,executive director of the Antarctic and Southern Ocean Coalition,told the New York
Times,"There'S no military or coast guard for Antarctica."He asked,"Do we want this(the Antarctic)to
become Disneyland,or do we want some controls?"The tourist ships are in danger of_________.
A:safe
B:being hit by floating ice
C:pollute the sea
D:foreseen
E:unclear
F:dealing with the threat答案：B解析：第一段前三句都在叙述南极游客数量上涨。最后一句引出下文。由此可知本段主要 论述南极游客的增加。所以正确答案为B。
第二段首先介绍“探索者”号轮船，接着说它上个星期沉没的情况以及带来的影响。曲 此可知本段主要论述“探索者”号轮船的沉没。所以最佳选项为A。
第三段首先说这一事故并非不可预见，然后说美国和英国在南极条约国的会议上已红 警告过该地区的旅游情况可能导致灾难的发生。最后分别描述了美国和英国的意见。由此司 知本段论述的是其他国家在事故发生之前发出的警告：所以正确答案为E。
本段第一句为中心句：虽然南极洲的海面相对平静，但是浮冰对轮船有潜在威胁。接 着详细说明很多大游轮都没有或几乎没有抗冰方面的强化设计，这会给大量游轮带来威胁。 可知本段论述的是潜在的危险，所以最佳答案为D。
第二段提到了“探索者”号轮船上的船员和乘客，该段第四句说：幸运的是，所有游客和 船员都从船上撤退了。由此可知船员和游客都安全。所以正确答案为A。
第三段第一句说，这个事故不是不可预料的，说明这个事故可以预料，后文提到美国和 英国早就提出了警告。由此可知正确答案为D。
第四段第一句提到南极洲的浮冰给客轮带来潜在的威胁。所以正确答案为B。
第五段第二句说，关于谁应对旅游可能给人的生命和环境带来的威胁负责，没有明确 的答案。由此可知正确答案为E。 -

Tourism
People travel for a lot of reason.Some tourists go to see battlefields or religious shrines.Others are looking for culture,or simply want to have their picture taken in front of famous places.But most European tourists are looking for a sunny beach to lie on.
Northern European are willing to pay a lot of money and put up with a lot of inconveniences for the sun because they have so little of it. Residents of cities like London,Copenhagen,and Amsterdam spend a lot of their winter in the dark because the days are so short,and much of the rest the year in the rain.This is the reason the Mediterranean has always attracted them.Every summer, more than 25 million people travel to Mediterranean resort and beaches for their vacation.They all come for the same reason:sun!
The huge crowds mean lots of money for the economies of Mediterranean countries.Italy's
30,000 hotels are booked solid every summer.And 13 million people camp out on French beaches, parks and roadsides.Spain's long sandy coastline attracts more people than anywhere else.37 million tourists visit yearly,or one tourist for every person living in Spain.
But there are signs that the area is getting more tourism than it can hand1e; The Mediterranean is already one the most polluted seas on earth.And with increased tourism,it's getting worse.The French can't figure out what to do with all the garbage left by campers around St. Tropez.And in many places,swimming is dangerous because of pollution.
None of this,however,is spoiling anyone's fun.The Mediterranean gets more popular every year with tourists.Obviously,they don't go there for clean water and solitude.They tolerate traffic jams and seem to like crowded beaches.They don't even mind the pollution.No matter how dirty the water is,the coastline still looks beautiful.And as long as the sun shines,it's still better than sitting in the cold rain in Berlin,London,or Oslo.The latter half of the last sentence in paragraph 3,"or one tourist for every person living in Spain"means______.
A:all the 37 million people living in Spain are tourists
B:every year almost as many tourists visit Spain as there are people living in that country
C:every person living in Spain has to take care of a tourist
D:every Spanish is visited by a tourist every year答案：B解析：第二段提到北欧游客为了享受阳光而到地中海度假，因为北欧日照短而且阴雨天多。所以选择D。
第二段中提到伦敦、哥本哈根和阿姆斯特丹的地理位置：地处北欧；气候：冬季日照时间短，长期的阴雨天气。与阳光充足的地中海相比，这三个城市不适合度假，因此选A。
第三段介绍“西班牙长长的海岸线较之其他旅游胜地吸引了更多的游客”。因此选择B。
本句介绍西班牙的游客数量，意思是“西班牙有多少居民，就有多少游客”，即西班牙游客的数量与居民的数量一样多。所以应选B。
最后一段介绍虽然地中海存在污染、交通堵塞，但游客兴致不减，他们去地中海是为了享受阳光。因此阴雨的天气会败坏他们的游兴。 -

Niagara Falls is a great tourist attraction，drawing millions of visitors every year.A:holding
