The value-packed, all-inclusive sight-seeing package that combines the best of Sydney's harbor, city, bay and beach highlights.
A SydneyPass gives you unlimited and flexible travel on the Explorer Buses: the ‘red' Sydney Explorer shows you around our exciting city sights while the ‘blue' Bondi Explorer visits Sydney Harbour bays and famous beaches. Take to the water on one of three magnificent daily harbor cruises (游船). You can also travel free on regular Sydney Buses, Sydney Ferries or CityRail services (limited area), so you can go to every corner of this beautiful city.
Imagine browsing at Darling Harbour, tasting the famous seafood at Watsons Bay or enjoying the city lights on an evening ferry cruise. The possibilities and plans are endless with a SydneyPass. Wherever you decide to go, remember that bookings are not required on any of our services so tickets are treated on a first in, first seated basis.
SydneyPasses are available for 3, 5 or 7 days for use over a 7-calendar-day period. With a 3 or 5-day pass you choose on which days out of the 7 you want to use it. All SydneyPasses include a free Airport Express inward trip before starting your 3, 5 or 7 days, and the return trip is valid for 2 months from the first day your ticket was used.

Today I visited an experienced English teacher, who used to be mom’s teacher. Both mom and I were eager to get some advice to improve her English. He welcomed us warm and began testing my English knowledge, asking me to read the texts and spelling some words. I did well as I had interested in English since childhoo. He was pleased with my performance but gave me valuable suggest: preview and review.

Then he goes through my English papers, only to find my bad handwriting, which needed being improving badly. Under his guidance, I practiced writing letters, words, sentences and a whole text.

In a society, such as the United States or Canada, which has many national, religious and cultural differences, people 【1】 value individualism--the differences among people. Teachers place a lot of importance on the 【2】 that make each student special. The educational systems in these countries show these values. Students do not memorize information. Instead, they work 【3】 and find answers by themselves.There is often discussion in the classroom. At an early age, students learn to form their own ideas and opinions.

In most Asia societies, on the contrary, the people have the same language, history and culture. Perhaps for this reason, the educational system in much of the Orient 【4】 society’s belief in group goals and purposes rather than individualism. Children in China, Japan and Korea often work together and help one another on assignments. In the classroom, the teaching 【5】 are often very formal. The teacher lectures, and the students listen. There is not much discussion. Instead, the students recite rules or information that have memorized.

There are advantages and disadvantages to both of these 【6】 of education. For example, one advantage to the system in Japan is that students there learn much more math and science than American students by the end of high school. They also study more hours each day and more days each year than North Americans do. The system is difficult, but it 【7】students for a society that values discipline and self-control. There is, however, a disadvantage. Memorization is an 【8】 learning method in Japanese schools, yet many students say that after an exam, they forget much of the information they have memorized.

The advantage of the educational system in North America, on the other hand, is that students learn to think for themselves. The system prepares them for a society that values 【9】 ideas. There is, however, a disadvantage. When students graduate from school, they haven’t 【10】 as many basic rules and facts as students in other countries have.

Dear Editor,

I’m a middle school student. I am writing to tell you something around us.

Nowadays, as the development of China’s urbanization, thousands of people move into cities, leave their children at home. However, many of these left-behind children have problems, which always feel lonely or stressed out and are more likely make mistakes. They even behave illegal due to lack of their parents’ love and care.

How can we solve a problem? In my eyes, our government should balance the economic develop in different area. Besides, we can organize “hand-in-hand” activities to call on more people to help them. It’s very important for us to pay more attention to these children if you want to build in a harmonious society.

Best wishes to you!

Yours,

Wang Qiang

A recent study, while showing a generally positive attitude toward science, also suggests a widespread worry that it may be "running out of control". This idea is dangerous.

Science can be a force for evil as well as for good. Its 【1】 can be channeled either way, depending on our decisions. The decisions we make, personally or collectively, will 【2】 the outcomes of science. But here is a real danger. Science 【3】 so fast and is so strongly influenced by businesses that we are likely to believe whatever decisions we come to will make little difference. And, rather than fighting for the best possible policies, we may step back and do nothing.

Some people go even further. They say that despite the 【4】 and legal objections (反对), whatever is scientifically possible will be done-somewhere , sometime. They believe that science will get out of control in the end. This belief is dangerous too, because it fuels a sense of hopelessness and 【5】 them from making efforts to build a safer world.

In our interconnected world, the 【6】 of agreement in and out of the world of science can lead to the failure to control the use of science. Without a 【7】 understanding, the challenges of "controlling" science in this century will be really tough. Take human cloning for example. Despite the general agreement among scientists on its possible huge 【8】 on traditional moral values, some countries still go ahead with the research and development of its related techniques. The 【9】 are hard to predict.

Therefore, discussions on how science is applied should be extended far beyond scientific societies. Only through the untied 【10】 of people with hope, can we be fully safe against the misuse of science and can science best serve mankind in the future.

【题目】

Is running a marathon in under two hours possible? Will a human ever be able to run that fast? Currently, the world record for the 42.195 km (26.219 miles) distance is held by Kenyan Dennis Kimetto. His time of 2:02:57 hours was achieved at the Berlin Marathon of 2014.

For many years, long-distance runners have been trying to get nearer and nearer to the magical mark of two hours. Studies published in the past by medical and athletic experts have come to the conclusion that running a marathon in under 2 hours can be done. They even see a time of around 1:57 as the fastest a human can ever run. However, we will have to wait at least a decade or longer for this to happen.

Many things must fit together to deliver an under two-hour marathon. An athlete would have to have the perfect body size and weight, the right running strategy and of course, the right nutrition. Today's most perfect runners come from Kenya and Ethiopia, countries that have dominated (统治) long-distance races for decades. East African athletes have long legs and lungs that can take in lots of oxygen. Training at high altitudes gives them a strong heart and a very large blood volume (容量).

Ideal weather conditions with cool temperatures and almost no wind will also be needed to attempt such a quick time. An ultra-fast marathon would only be possible on flat city courses, like Berlin or London, with few curves (弯道).

Since the beginning of the modern Olympic Games in 1896, athletes have tried to run long-distance races as fast as possible. In 1900, the marathon world record was around 3 hours. In the following 30 years, men were able to reach a mark of 2:30. As time went on achieving faster times became more and more difficult. In the last 15 years, for example, the world record has improved by only 3 minutes.

On the other hand, some experts think that such fast performances will only be possible with the help of illegal drugs or substances (物质). In the past years, several East African runners have been tested positive and many of them banned.

【1】What are Paragraphs 3 & 4 mainly about?

A.The benefits of running a marathon.

B.The conditions for an under two-hour marathon.

C.The development of modern long-distance races.

D.Perfect runners who can compete in a marathon.

【2】Which of the following does the author agree with?

A.East Africans are born to be long-distance runners.

B.It's impossible to beat the marathon world record again.

C.More and more athletes are losing their interest in marathons.

D.It's easier to achieve a marathon world record in Berlin than in London.

【3】What's the author's attitude towards running a marathon in under 2 hours?

A.Hopeful.B.Doubtful.

C.Uncertain.D.Uninterested.

【4】What's the main purpose of the text?

A.To inform.B.To discuss.

C.To educate.D.To persuade.
