14、tories，Outlying Islands)，人口约为699万人；2香港电影业也很繁荣，对香港的经济发展作出了很大贡献；3香港人热爱体育运动，被选为2008年奥运会部分项目比赛的举办城市；4风景秀丽，气候温和，名胜众多，是著名的旅游胜地和购物天堂。写作要求：1只能使用5个句子表达全部内容；2介绍必须包括所有内容要点，但不要逐条译成英语。_参考答案一、1traveling2Looking3sending4calling5keeping6filling7Having failed8Not realizing9leaving10standing二、语篇解读：作者在高考前感冒了，然而作者并没有灰心
15、气馁，而是积极治疗，为自己的梦想做好充分的准备。1解析：考查语境化选词。由第二段的描述“I felt it difficult to breathe through my nose and had a sore throat”可以看出，作者得了感冒，由此可以判断：大风和冷雨一定会加剧我的感冒。答案：D2解析：考查语境化选词。由语境可知，作者对自己的健康(health)很自信，所以才在刮着凉风(wind)的天气里去游泳。答案：B3解析：考查语境化选词。如果不注意weather是不可数名词，就很容易误选。答案：A4解析：考查动词辨析。很显然，感冒是自己去游泳前所没有预料到的，所以应该选择turn
16、out，意思是：结果是。句意为：结果证明我没有我认为的那么强壮。show up“出现”；work out“计算出”；come up “始；发生；被提出”。答案：D5解析：考查语境化选词。上文说的是我不得不在诊所里接受治疗，下文说的是：由于即将来临的台风，我不得不离开诊所接受进一步(further)的治疗。也就是说，后面的情况更糟糕，所以选择worse still(更糟糕的是)。after all“毕竟”；whats more“此外”；at last“最后”。答案：A6解析：考查语境化选词。further “进一步”。答案：A7解析：考查语境化选词。句意为：当你感冒的时候，你绝不会考出理想的(p
17、erfect)成绩。而不是equal “平等的”；potential“潜在的”；average“平均的”。答案：A8解析：考查动词辨析。这里是对“catching a cold”的生动描述，即“流鼻涕”，所以要用“run”，指鼻涕的流动。答案：C9解析：语境化选词。由下文提到的Mum可以看出，由于在这个时候得了感冒，所以我想家(homesick)。句意为：因为在一个离家很远的寄宿制学校里，我从未像现在这么想家。答案：D10解析：上文提到想家，所以不难推知作者想给妈妈打电话。答案：A11解析：考查语境化选词。句意为：我不想让这么多年的努力因感冒而毫无结果。bear fruit为固定搭配，意为有成
18、果，bear no fruits则意为未果。grow“生长”；purchase“购买”；bear“结(果实)”。答案：C12解析：考查动词辨析。这几个短语中只有“come up with”可以和plan搭配，意思是：想出，制定出。答案：D13解析：考查语境化选词。根据上文可知作者在跟感冒作斗争，喝苦丁茶也是为恢复健康。答案：B14解析：考查语境化选词。由下文的“even the terrible typhoon”，以及上文的“the approaching typhoon”可以看出，我做好准备应对的是：多变的天气(weather)。答案：C15解析：考查语境化选词。很显然这里指的是在高考中考出
19、好成绩，也就是说实现自己的梦想。答案：C三、1his2for3when4another5revisit6However7be written8association9political10in四、范文赏读Hong KongHong Kong，like a brilliant pearl，is located on the northeastern coastline of china，covering an area of 1,104 square kilometers with a population of over 6.99 million.It consists of Hong Kon
