【解析】

文章大意：悉尼是个年轻的城市。它的历史可以追溯到200多年前。但在澳大利亚，它是最古老的城市。它也是澳大利亚最大的城市和人口最多的城市。悉尼的气候非常宜人，冬天不太冷，夏天也不太热。天空蔚蓝，空气清新，鸟儿在花园里歌唱。住在悉尼的人似乎过着安逸的生活。许多人认为悉尼是世界上最有吸引力的城市之一。它有许多高楼大厦和现代化的建筑。其中，中心塔是最高的。站在305米高的塔楼上，你会看到这座城市的美景。

悉尼以其深水港而闻名。这个港口有许多海湾和美丽的冲浪海滩。其中，邦迪海滩是悉尼最受欢迎的海港，不仅美丽，而且还是一个大港口。船只从悉尼运送羊毛、小麦和肉类到其他国家。住在悉尼的人喜欢称自己为悉尼人。他们大多友好随和。当他们不工作的时候，他们喜欢在海滩上玩得开心，游泳和航海。现在，你想去悉尼吗？

【1】句意：它的历史可以追溯到200多年前。

通过句子结构判断，主语位置缺少基础的名词或代词。前面修饰词Its“它的”形容词性物主代词，需修饰名词;空格后为谓语动词。故根据前后句意选择history。故答案为B。

【2】句意：悉尼的气候非常宜人。

通过固定搭配，判断词性。由于前修饰词为is very，be动词和副词修饰形容词；结合上下文句意，对应后文“…not too cold during the winter and not too hot during the summer...”故选择pleasant故答案为D。

【3】句意：住在悉尼的人似乎过着安逸的生活。

从句子结构判断缺少谓语动词，空格后为不定式搭配；结合上下文句意，由“...to have an easy life style. They will tell you, ‘Don’t worry.’”推测为“seem to do”“似乎有..”此空应填seem，故答案为A。

【4】句意：站在305米高的塔楼上，你会看到一个伟大的城市。

判断词性。由“have a great…of”得出缺少名词，结合上下文，“Standing on the

305-meter tower,”故选择view“视野；风景”。故答案为E。

【5】句意：悉尼以其深水港而闻名。

从句子结构判断缺少谓语动词，根据下文“The harbour has many bays and beautiful surf beaches. Among them…”得出“is famous for”“因…而著名”更适合句意。故答案为E。

【6】句意：。其中，邦迪海滩是悉尼最受欢迎的海港。

通过固定搭配，判断词性。根据空格前后“is the most…”判断缺少形容词。选项中只有两个形容词，friendly意为友好的，不符合句意，判断用popular。故答案为A。

【7】句意：他们大多友好随和。

根据be动词和搭配的形容词，判断缺少同类形容词，结合上下文，选择修饰人物性格的形容词“friendly”，故答案为D。

【8】句意： 当他们不工作的时候，他们喜欢在海滩上玩得开心，游泳和航海。

根据上下文句意，“When they are not working, they love to...at the beach, swimming and sailing...”判断为“have a good time”适合句意。故答案为C。
