Unit 2 Iconic Attractions
(见学生用书P31)
The Great Barrier Reef 大堡礁
One of Australia’s most remarkable① natural gifts, the Great Barrier Reef, is blessed with the breathtaking beauty of the world’s largest coral reef. The reef contains an abundance② of marine life and comprises over 3,000 individual reef systems and literally③ hundreds of picturesque tropical islands with some of the world’s most beautiful sunsoaked, golden beaches.Because of its natural beauty, the Great Barrier Reef has become one of the world’s most soughtafter tourist destinations.
大堡礁是澳大利亚最不寻常的自然恩赐之一,它拥有世界上最大的珊瑚礁的惊人之美。 大堡礁拥有丰富的海洋生物,包括3 000多个独立的珊瑚礁系统,还确实有数百个风景如画的热带岛屿,其中一些拥有世界上最美丽的阳光沐浴的金色海滩。由于其自然美景,大堡礁已成为世界上最受欢迎的旅游目的地之一。
The Eiffel Tower 埃菲尔铁塔
The Eiffel Tower has long been one of the world’s most recognisable landmarks, symbolising the romance and ingenuity of the City of Lights. It was built in 1887 to commemorate④ the 100th anniversary of the French Revolution. It is named after its designer, Eiffel. The 324metrehigh tower is a hollow steel framed structure and shoots straight up to the clouds. It weighs 7,000 tons. It is one of the most visited monuments in the world.
埃菲尔铁塔一直是世界上最知名的地标之一,象征着这座光之城的浪漫和智慧。 它建于1887年,是为了纪念法国大革命100周年。 它以其设计师埃菲尔命名。 塔高324米,为空心钢架结构,直冲云霄。 它重达7 000吨。 它是世界上参观人数最多的纪念塔之一。
Buckingham Palace 白金汉宫
Buckingham Palace is the London home and the administrative centre of the British royal family. The enormous building and extensive gardens are an important site of ceremonial and political affairs in the United Kingdom, as well as a major tourist attraction. But for a monarchy that dates back almost a thousand years, Buckingham Palace is a relatively new home.
白金汉宫是英国王室在伦敦的住所和行政中心。 巨大的建筑和广阔的花园是英国重要的礼仪和政治事务场所,也是一个重要的旅游景点。 但对于一个可以追溯到近千年前的君主制国家来说,白金汉宫是一个相对新的家。
Taj Mahal 泰姬陵
Taj Mahal is a tomb built by an emperor in honour of his beloved wife. It has been called “a poem in marble” and it is said to be the most expensive compliment⑤ ever paid to a woman. Perfect in symmetry, its beauty has never been surpassed⑥.
泰姬陵是一位皇帝为纪念他心爱的妻子而建造的陵墓。它被称为“用大理石写成的诗”,据说这是对一个女人最昂贵的赞美。它整齐匀称、完美至极,从未有任何建筑比它更美。

Next week I’m travelling to Australia to visit a friend there over the school holidays①. I plan to keep this blog to record my experiences② and what I learn. I have already done some research on③ the country. Located to the south of the equator④, below many other countries on the globe, it’s often informally referred to as⑤ “down under”.
I have also read about some iconic sites⑥, such as⑦ the Sydney Opera House and the Great Ocean Road, and animals like the cute⑧ koalas and kangaroos. I can’t wait to see all of them! However, as I major in⑨ social studies, I’m more interested in meeting people in Australia and experiencing their culture⑩, food, and way of life.
1 Oct
I’m here in Sydney! Since I arrived, my friend has brought me to my first openair barbecue⑪ and has also shared many different but yummy meals⑫ with me, so my first impressions of Australia have been all about food! A lot of typical Australian food, such as the Sunday roast⑬, is originally British. Bakeries⑭, fastfood joints⑮, butcher shops⑯, cafes, and restaurants everywhere provide some of the premier food experiences⑰ in the world. The influence of Asian cultures, on the other hand⑱, led to⑲ the introduction of bean curd and Asian herbs⑳, along with Australian versions of foods like the Chineseinspired dim sim㉑.
3 Oct
My friend and I have arrived in Katherine, a town in Australia’s Northern Territory. We’re here to learn about㉒ the life and customs of the Aborigines, who are native to㉓ Australia. The Aboriginal population might be small, but its influence is still visible. For example, “Bondi” in “Bondi Beach” is an Aboriginal word㉔ meaning “water breaking over㉕ rocks”.
To survive in this vast land on the ocean, the Aborigines had to be in close contact with nature㉖. This shows in their music, too, which celebrates the natural world and the spiritual world㉗ around them. Most of their musical instruments㉘ are really just sticks found on the ground, among which there is an amazing instrument called the didgeridoo.
The didgeridoo is made from㉙ a tree branch which is hollow㉚. To play the didgeridoo, you put your mouth on one end and blow while vibrating your lips㉛. Unlike㉜ a horn, there are no finger holes. The didgeridoo player has to change the shape of his mouth in order to change pitch㉝. A skilled player can play for a long time without stopping to breathe. He does this by continually breathing in㉞ through his nose while breathing out㉟ through his mouth and into the didgeridoo. I tried to learn how to play it, but after trying for hours, I was convinced that㊱ I could never make a musical sound㊲ with this instrument!
6 Oct
It’s almost time for me to say goodbye to㊳ Australia. I’ve enjoyed my time here very much. After being here for a while㊴, my biggest impression is the complicated mix of peoples and cultures that make up㊵ the nation. Although the main cultural influence since 1788 has been Western culture, minority cultures㊶ have also played a part in㊷ shaping the unique Australian culture㊸, with many of the new cultural influences contributed by immigrants. It is said that now nearly half of all Australian citizens㊹ were either born overseas or have parents who were born overseas㊺.
Personally speaking㊻, what I like most about Australia is the people themselves. They have a straightforward and freeandeasy attitude towards life㊼, and their friendliness and warmth made me feel at home㊽ wherever I went.
After experiencing Australia, I have to say that I agree with the tourism slogan㊾: “There’s nothing like㊿ Australia.”

9月25日
下周趁学校放假我将去澳大利亚旅行,去拜访那里的一个朋友。我打算用这个博客来记录我的经历和学到的东西。我已经对澳大利亚做了一些研究。(澳大利亚)位于赤道以南,并在地球上很多国家的下方,它常被非正式地称为 “down under”。
我也读过关于(澳大利亚的)一些标志性景点,比如悉尼歌剧院和大洋路,还有像可爱的考拉和袋鼠这样的动物。我迫不及待地要看到所有这些东西! 然而,由于我的专业是社会研究,所以我更感兴趣的是认识澳大利亚人,并体验他们的文化、食物和生活方式。
10月1日
现在我在悉尼!自从我来到这里,我的朋友就带我参加了我人生中的第一次露天烧烤,也和我分享了许多不同但美味的饭菜,因此我对澳大利亚的第一印象都是关于食物的! 很多典型的澳大利亚食物,比如周日烤肉,都起源于英国。随处可见的面包店、快餐店、肉店、咖啡馆和餐馆提供了世界上一些顶级的美食体验。另一方面,受亚洲文化的影响,除了灵感源自中国的点心等澳大利亚版的食物以外,还引入了豆腐和(用于调味的)亚洲药草。
10月3日
我和我的朋友来到了凯瑟琳,澳大利亚北部地区的一个小镇。我们来这里是为了了解澳大利亚土著居民的生活和习俗。土著居民人口可能很少,但其影响仍然可见。例如:“邦迪海滩”中的“邦迪”是一个土著词,意思是“水淹没岩石”。
为了在海洋中的这片广阔的陆地上生存,土著人必须与大自然保持密切联系。这也体现在他们的音乐中,他们的音乐歌颂他们周围的自然世界和精神世界。他们绝大多数的乐器其实就是地上找到的树枝,其中就有一种令人惊叹的、叫作迪吉里杜管的乐器。
迪吉里杜管是用一根中空的树枝制成的。吹奏迪吉里杜管时,你要把嘴放在一端,一边吹,一边振动嘴唇。不像号,它没有指孔。迪吉里杜管演奏者必须改变嘴巴的形状才能改变音高。一个熟练的演奏者可以演奏很长时间,而不需要停下来吸气。他通过不断地用鼻子吸气,同时用嘴巴呼气,让气流进入迪吉里杜管。我努力学习如何演奏它,但尝试了几个小时后,我确信我永远无法用这个乐器发出乐声!
10月6日
我差不多要和澳大利亚说再见了。我在这里过得很愉快。在这里待了一段时间后,组成这个国家的复杂的民族和文化给我留下了最深刻的印象。虽然自1788年以来,主要的文化影响是西方文化,但少数民族文化也在塑造独特的澳大利亚文化方面发挥了作用,其中许多新的文化影响来自移民。据说,现在将近一半的澳大利亚公民要么是在海外出生的,要么他们的父母是在海外出生的。
就我个人而言,关于澳大利亚我最喜欢的是澳大利亚人。他们对生活有一种直率、洒脱的态度,无论我走到哪里,他们的友好和热情都让我感到舒适自在。
在体验了澳大利亚后,我不得不说我同意这个旅游口号:“澳大利亚,尽是不同。”

【句型公式】
“介词+关系代词”引导的定语从句
【句型解读】
当关系代词在定语从句中作介词的宾语时,通常用“介词+关系代词”引导定语从句。如果先行词指“人”,用“介词+whom”;如果先行词指“物”,用“介词+which”。
(1)most of which是“代词+介词+关系代词”结构,也可以引导定语从句。
(2)“the+名词+of which/whom”相当于“whose+名词”。
【活学活用】
(1)Many traditional handicrafts are losing nowadays,__some_of_which__ are being replaced by modern products.
如今,许多传统手工艺品正在消失,它们中的一些正被现代产品所取代。

(4)September and October are the months of the year __during_which__ most English people take their holidays.
九月和十月是一年中大多数英国人度假的月份。
【写作佳句】
Our special thanks go to thousands of volunteers, without whose tireless work, we wouldn’t have achieved so much.
我们特别感谢成千上万的志愿者,没有他们孜孜不倦的工作,我们不可能取得这么大的成就。
2.It is said that now nearly half of all Australian citizens were either born overseas or have parents who were born overseas.据说,现在将近一半的澳大利亚公民要么是在海外出生的,要么他们的父母是在海外出生的。(教材P15)
【句型公式】
【句型解读】
(1)It为形式主语,真正的主语为that 引导的从句。 该结构还可以变为“Sb is said to do...”结构。使用时应注意不定式的一般时、进行时及完成时在句子中的变化。
(2)It is believed/reported/thought/supposed/hoped/expected that...据信/报道/认为/推断/希望/预计……(=People believe/report/think/suppose/hope/expect that...人们相信/报道/认为/推断/希望/预计……)
