【1】B 考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。A項錯在in person(現(xiàn)場的 親自的）蠟像館只是展覽模型，并非真實存在的人。C項錯在sculptors（雕塑家），在蠟像館里并不能看見雕塑家，而是雕塑作品符合世界級制作水平。故選擇B項。而D項錯在除了圣誕節(jié)以外，根據(jù)原文“Closed at Christmas Day (25 Dec.) and Anzac Day (25 Apr.)”可以看出。

【2】C 考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。題干為“如果一對夫婦和他10歲的孩子去參觀蠟像館，他們一共支付多少錢？”根據(jù)原文：Family (2 Adults + I Child) $68.00可知。

【題目】Larry was on another of his underwater adventures but this time, it was different. He decided to take his daughter along with him. She was only ten years old. This would be her first trip with her father on what he had always been famous for.

Larry first began diving when he was his daughter’s age. Similarly, his father had taken him along on one of his adventures. Since then, he had never looked back. Larry started out by renting diving suits from the small diving shop just along the shore. He had hated them. They were either too big or too small. Then, there was the instructor. He gave him a short lesson before allowing him into the water with his father. He had made an exception. Larry would never have been able to go down without at least five hours of theory and another similar number of hours on practical lessons with a guide. Children his age were not even allowed to dive.

After the first adventure, Larry’s later diving adventures only got better and better. There was never a dull moment. In his black and blue suit and with an oxygen tank fastened on his back, Larry dived from boats into the middle of the ocean. Dangerous areas did not prevent him from continuing his search. Sometimes, his was limited to a cage underwater but that did not bother him. At least, he was still able to take photographs of the underwater creatures.

Larry’s first adventure without his father was in the Cayman Islands. There were numerous diving spots in the area and Larry was determined to visit all of them .Fortunately for him, a man offered to take him around the different spots for free. Larry didn’t even know what the time was how many spots he dived into or how many photographs he had taken. The diving spots afforded such a wide array of fish and sea creatures that Larry saw more than thirty varieties of creatures.

Larry looked at his daughter. She looked as excited as he had been when he was her age. He hoped she would be able to continue the family tradition. Already, she looked like she was much braver than had been then. This was the key to a successful underwater adventure.

【1】What can be inferred from Paragraph2?

A. Larry had some privileges.

B. Larry liked the rented diving suits.

C. Divers had to buy diving equipment.

D. Ten-year-old children were permitted to dive.

【2】Why did Larry have to stay in a cage underwater sometimes?

A. To dive into the deep water.

B. To protect himself from danger.

C. To admire the underwater view.

D. To take photo more conveniently.

【3】What can be learned from the underlined sentence?

A. Larry didn’t wear a watch. B. Larry had a poor memory.

C. Larry was not good at math. D. Larry enjoyed the adventure.

【4】What did Larry expect his daughter to do?

A. Become a successful diver.

B. Make a good diving guide.

C. Take a lot of photos underwater.

D. Have longer hours of training.

Yesterday I paid a visit to the Hong’en Temple Park with my friends. The park was full of fresh and beauty flowers. When I was enjoying the wonderful scenery around, something unpleasant catch my eye. A young couple on the grass was eating, talking and laughing loudly even if they were the only people in the world. What’s better, they spat and even threw rubbish onto the grass, ignoring the sign “No littering” nearby. What a shame!

Such behavior left me in thought. If all visitors to the Hong’en Temple Park do as the young couples did, the park will be severely polluting and soon turned into a huge dustbin. I think both of us should mind our behavior in the public places. Only in this way can we live more comfortable and beautiful surroundings.
