Answer 1

分析 本文为一段对话，主要讲述Billy与Jennifer两人见面时，谈到了到桂林旅游的有关事项．比如，旅游景点象鼻山，户外表演，住宿等．

解答 61．with  考查介词．be occupied with意为"忙于…"，为固定搭配． 
62．starting 考查动名词．before是介词，后接动词时用动名词形式．
63．Actually 考查副词．修饰句子要用副词．
64．a 考查冠词．ride为可数名词，其前用不定冠词a表示泛指．  
65．to be surrounded 考查不定式的被动语态．此处it作形式主语，真正的主语为to do结构，即it+be+名词/形容词+to  do sth．根据其后的by可知，此处指"被那些高耸的山峰环绕"，故用to do的被动形式to be done．   
66．comfortable 考查形容词．and是并列连词，它前后连接两个相同的语法成分，content和comfortable都是形容词作表语．
67．had imagined 考查动词时态．imagine（想象）这一动作发生在谓语动作之前，句意"我做的比我想象中更好"，谓语was为过去时，表示"过去的过去"，用故去完成时．
68．which 考查定语从句．  分析句子结构可知这是一个定语从句，先行词Elephant Trunk Hill在从句中作主语，用关系代词which．
69．where  考查定语从句．分析句子结构可知这是一个定语从句，先行词 Yangshuo在从句中作地点状语，用关系代词where．
70．reqiurements 考查名词．meet one's requirements意为"满足某人的要求"，是固定搭配．
