I. 阅读理解（4×4’=16’）
Visiting the Great Barrier Reef, one of the seven natural wonders in the world, was a dream come true for
me.
The day tour was from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm and I spent 5 hours at the Marine World on the Outer Reef.
As a newbie (新手) to water sports, one of the best ways to see the beauty of the Great Barrier Reef was by
snorkeling (戴潜水通气管潜水). After getting some useful tips on how to use the snorkeling equipment, I was
fitted with a mask, snorkel and fins. I was then ready to begin the guided tour and experience the amazing
underwater life at the Outer Reef. By using the stairs provided, it was extremely easy to get into the water from
the snorkel platform at the sheltered coral lagoon (环礁湖). The water clarity was of the highest quality, which
made for excellent visibility and I was able to look at the bottom of the lagoon to see the breathtaking view. It
included different colours, shapes, textures and movements of corals and marine life.
One of the highlights of the snorkeling trip was swimming alongside Wally the Giant Maori Wrasse and
taking pictures with my underwater camera. It was also good to have floating rest stations that were placed at
points so that I could take a break from my snorkeling activities.
On the 30-minute tour, while sitting about 1 meter underwater, I was able to see the colorful coral gardens
as well as schools of fish, including reef fish, angel fish and Jump Headed Parrot fish. I even saw whales and
friendly reef sharks. Another way I was able to experience the colors and beauty of marine life in the Outer
Reef was by taking the 30-minute glass bottom boat tour.
My adventurous trip to the Great Barrier Reef was an amazing one filled with fun, excitement, information
and wonderful close-up views of a diverse range of coral reefs and marine wildlife. Overall, I would
recommend this once-in-a life-time experience to everyone.

II. 七选五阅读（5×4’=20’）
It truly doesn’t take much to encourage others and, best of all, it’s very affordable and requires no special
equipment. Here are some simple ways to encourage others.
☆ Take an interest.
I believe this is one of the most practical ways of encouraging others. Show that you’re interested in what
they’re doing. 16 People like to talk about themselves and once you get them talking, you fire up their
enthusiasm (热情).
☆ Acknowledge a job well done.
Great achievements take time and effort. You can encourage others by acknowledging their effort. A
simple “well done” or “thank you” can be influential. 17
☆ Lend a hand.
18 In fact, you can be the first one to offer to lend a hand. If a person sees you are willing to spend
your time and energy on their interests, they will be more encouraged to see it through and less likely to give
up.
☆ 19
Thank someone when he/she does something for you. Thank your partner after he/she cooks a nice meal.
Thank a friend for lending you a book. A simple “thank you” lets others know what they have done is
meaningful to you.
☆ Give a call to your friend.
As you know, we’re all busy, and in the age of emails and texts, phone calls seem ancient to many people.
__20 Even if they miss the call they’ll appreciate the effort and your message. Make an effort to do this just
once a week for one person and see how your connections respond to the encouragement.
A. Get them talking.
B. Show your appreciation.
C. Do something unexpected.
D. But people love hearing from friends.
E. You are probably waiting for someone to ask you for advice.
F. Haven’t you felt important when someone asked for your advice?
G. These words can make a difference between going on and giving up.
