課文三維剖析
25 Sep 9月25日 Next week I'm travelling to Australia to visit a friend1 there over the school holidays．I plan to keep this blog2 to record my experiences and3 what I learn． I have already done some research on the country． Located to the south4 of the equator， below many other countries on the globe， it's often informally referred to as “down under”． 1動詞不定式短語作目的狀語 2動詞不定式短語作賓語 3連接my__experiences和what引導的賓語從句 4過去分詞短語作原因狀語
趁學校放假，我打算下周去澳大利亞看望那里的一位朋友。我計劃用這個博客記錄我的所見所聞。我對澳大利亞做了一番研究。(澳大利亞)位于赤道以南，并在地球上很多國家的下方，它常被非正式地稱為“down under”。
I have also read about some iconic sites， such as5 the Sydney Opera House and the Great Ocean Road， and animals like the cute koalas and kangaroos． I can't wait to see all of them! However， as6 I major in social studies， I'm more interested in meeting people in Australia and7 experiencing their culture， food， and way of life． 5介詞短語作定語 6引導原因狀語從句 7連接兩個動名詞短語，作介詞in的賓語
我也看了一些標志性景點的介紹，比如悉尼歌劇院和大洋路，還有可愛的考拉和袋鼠等動物的資料。我迫不及待想見到所有這一切！不過，因為我主修社會研究，所以我對結識澳大利亞人并體驗他們的文化、飲食和生活方式更感興趣。
1 Oct 10月1日 I'm here in Sydney! Since8 I arrived， my friend has brought me to my first open air barbecue and9 has also shared many different but yummy meals with me， so10 my first impressions of Australia have been all about food! A lot of typical Australian food， such as the Sunday roast， is originally British． Bakeries， fast food joints， butcher shops， cafes， and restaurants everywhere provide some of the premier food experiences in the world． The influence of Asian cultures， on the other hand， led to the introduction of bean curd and Asian herbs， along withF11 Australian versions of foods like the Chinese inspired dim sim． 8引導時間狀語從句 9連接has__brought和has__shared兩個并列謂語 10連接并列句，表示結果 11介詞短語作狀語
我在悉尼啦！自我來這兒之后，朋友就帶著我去吃了這輩子第一次的露天燒烤，還和我分享了許多風格各異的美味佳肴，所以我對澳大利亞的第一印象就是美食！很多澳大利亞的特色美食都源自英國，比如星期日烤肉。隨處可見的面包店、快餐連鎖店、肉店、咖啡館和餐館提供世界頂級的美食體驗。另一方面，受亞洲文化的影響，除了靈感源自中國的點心等澳大利亞版的食物以外，還引入了豆腐和(用于調味的)亞洲藥草。
3 Oct 10月3日 My friend and I have arrived in Katherine， a town in Australia's Northern Territory． We're here to learn about the life and12 customs of the Aborigines， who13 are native to Australia． The Aboriginal population might be small， but its influence is still visible． For example， “Bondi” in “Bondi Beach” is an Aboriginal word meaning “water breaking over rocks” 14． 12連接兩個名詞(短語)，作介詞about的賓語 13引導非限制性定語從句，解釋說明先行詞the__Aborigines 14現在分詞短語作后置定語
我和朋友來到了澳大利亞北領地的凱瑟琳小鎮。我們此行的目的是了解土著人的生活和習俗，他們是澳大利亞的原住民。土著人的人口可能很少，但其影響依舊可見。例如，“邦迪海灘”中的“邦迪”就是一個土著詞匯，意思是“拍打著巖石的海浪(聲)”。
To survive in this vast land on the ocean15， the Aborigines had to be in close contact with nature． This shows in their music， too， which16 celebrates the natural world and the spiritual world around them． Most of their musical instruments are really just sticks found on the ground， among which17 there is an amazing instrument called the didgeridoo． 15動詞不定式短語作目的狀語 16引導非限制性定語從句，解釋說明先行詞music 17“介詞＋which”引導非限制性定語從句，解釋說明先行詞sticks
為了在大洋中這片遼闊的土地上生存，澳大利亞土著人得和大自然保持密切的聯系。這也體現在他們的音樂中。這些音樂歌頌身邊的自然世界，以及圍繞著他們的精神世界。他們絕大多數的樂器其實就是地上找到的樹枝，其中就有一種令人驚嘆的、叫作迪吉里杜管的樂器。
The didgeridoo is made from a tree branch which is hollow． To play the didgeridoo， you put your mouth on one end and18 blow while vibrating your lips19． Unlike a horn， there are no finger holes． The didgeridoo player has to change the shape of his mouth in order to change pitch． A skilled player can play for a long time without stopping to breathe20． He does this by continually breathing in through his nose while breathing out through his mouth and into the didgeridoo． I tried to learn how to play it， but21 after trying for hours， I was convinced that22 I could never make a musical sound with this instrument! 18連接put和blow兩個并列謂語 19“while＋現在分詞短語”作時間狀語 20“without＋動名詞短語”作狀語 21連接兩個表示轉折關系的并列句 22引導賓語從句
迪吉里杜管由空心的樹干制成。吹奏迪吉里杜管時，把嘴巴靠在一端，一邊吹氣，一邊振動嘴唇。與喇叭不同，迪吉里杜管沒有指孔。吹奏迪吉里杜管必須靠改變嘴形才能改變音高。一名嫻熟的演奏者可以長時間吹奏，不用停下來換氣。演奏者可以不停地用鼻子吸氣，同時通過嘴巴吐氣，吹入迪吉里杜管中。我試著學習吹奏方法，但經過好幾個小時的努力，我只能確信我永遠都無法用這個樂器發出樂聲！
6 Oct 10月6日 It's almost time for me to say goodbye to Australia． I've enjoyed my time here very much． After being here for a while23， my biggest impression is the complicated mix of peoples and cultures that24 make up the nation． Although25 the main cultural influence since 1788 has been Western culture， minority cultures have also played a part in shaping the unique Australian culture， with many of the new cultural influences contributed26 by immigrants． It is said that27 now nearly half of all Australian citizens were either born overseas or have parents who28 were born overseas． 23“after＋動名詞短語”作時間狀語 24引導定語從句，修飾先行詞peoples__and__cultures 25引導讓步狀語從句 26 with的復合結構，“with ＋名詞＋過去分詞”作狀語 27 It為形式主語，that引導的從句為真正的主語 28引導定語從句，修飾先行詞parents
差不多是我跟澳大利亞說再見的時候了。我在這里過得十分愉快。在這里住了一段時間之后，我最深刻的印象就是不同種族和文化的交融構成了這個國家。盡管自1788年以來，主要的文化影響是西方文化，但少數族裔文化在塑造獨特的澳大利亞文化方面也發揮了作用，還有許多隨著移民而來的新文化的影響。據說現在近一半的澳大利亞公民要么自己出生于海外，要么父母出生于海外。
Personally speaking29， what30 I like most about Australia is the people themselves． They have a straightforward and free and easy attitude towards life， and31 their friendliness and warmth made me feel at home wherever32 I went． 29作插入語 30引導主語從句，在從句中作like的賓語 31連接兩個并列句 32引導地點狀語從句
對我個人來說，澳大利亞讓我最喜歡的就是這里的人民。他們對待生活的態度簡單直率、隨性灑脫，他們的友善和熱情讓我無論走到哪里都有賓至如歸的感覺。
After experiencing Australia， I have to say that33 I agree with the tourism slogan: “There's nothing like Australia．” 33引導賓語從句
在游歷了澳大利亞之后，我得說我十分贊同他們的旅游口號：“澳大利亞，盡是不同。”

Dubai， make your day!
Thanks to global connections， Dubai has become an ideal destination for refreshing yourself． Here's how to plan a one day trip with wow factors．

Swim above the city
Have a refreshing swim at Aura Skypool， which offers 360 degree views from 50 floors up． From here， the Palm (棕櫚島) and the sea sparkles become clear to see． In addition to its daytime sessions， it hosts sunrise swims and early morning yoga， as well as night bookings until 11 pm．
Enjoy the beach

(2024·安徽省阜陽第一中學高二下月考)Bright and early on the morning of our first full day in Antarctica， L' Austral's Captain Fabien's voice woke us up as it came through a loudspeaker． If we looked outside right now， he said， we'd see a beautiful sea of icebergs in the golden sunlight． My sister and I jumped out of bed， staring in amazement as we sailed past giant pieces of ice． In the distance， we spotted a group of humpback whales feeding on smaller fishes． Next door， my parents were also waking up to the sights of a new day in Antarctica． Over breakfast， my sister and I excitedly told them about the whales we saw from our room that morning．
You might not immediately think of “family vacation” when talking about a trip to Antarctica， but tour companies like Adventures by Disney are changing that． The company offers guided group trips to destinations across all seven continents in the world．
Our adventure started when we flew to Buenos Aires and explored the beautiful Argentine capital for a day． After leaving Buenos Aires， we flew to Ushuaia on an Adventures by Disney plane． Then， it was the journey toward the Drake Passage． After a speedy Drake Passage crossing， we reached Antarctica early， adding a half day to our scheduled four days on and around the continent．
To those unfamiliar with Adventures by Disney， the fact that you can experience Antarctica—the most distant， extreme continent—with Disney might be surprising． During the trip， there were thoughtful acts， from stamped postcards to send from an Antarctica post office to a champagne party on our final stop of the journey; Adventures by Disney truly thought of everything for us． Antarctica is a life changing destination packed with experiences that can't be copied． We experienced seasickness when travelling across the Drake Passage， hiked up ice hills alongside lovely animals， and had a taste of champagne． And honestly， it's going to be hard for the next family trip we may take to compete．

(2024·江蘇省泰州市聯盟校高二下月考)Last summer vacation， I traveled to Sanya in Hainan， China． When my dad told me one of the items on the journey would be one of the highest water slides (水上滑梯) in Asia， I asked my dad repeatedly whether I could stay at home． But my dad said that I would love it and we should go together．
Three days later， I was standing in front of that water slide in Atlantics Waterpark． The slide was located in a building． When I looked up at the tens of thousands of stairs leading to the peak of the building， I thought to myself， “If I fall from that place， I will definitely die．”
As we started climbing the stairs， I saw three words on the wall: Leap of Faith． I had never heard of these words， and at that time they reminded me of Road to Death． Five meters， ten meters ．．． I looked down and thought， “I am going to die today．” Fifteen meters， twenty meters ．．． I thought about the many things I hadn't done and asked my dad whether I had life insurance． Twenty five meters， thirty meters ．．． and we were finally at the top， ready to jump into the slide． I looked at the three people next to me and thought， “These are the last three people I will see in my life．”
Suddenly， the teenage boy ahead of me stopped in front of the slide and turned around， “Look down there． If we fall into the shark tank， we will be eaten by those hungry sharks．” We all paused and looked down at the shark tank above the slide tunnel． Just then， a younger boy next to me said， “Excuse me， if you don't want to go now， I will go first．” Then he walked past the teenage boy and me and jumped into the slide， disappearing in an instant．
My father said to me jokingly， “Look， that boy is not even half of your height． Come on， Selina． You can do it．” The teenager turned and stared at me too， “Now， you go first．”
注意：
1．續寫詞數應為150個左右；
2．請按如下格式在相應位置作答。

[精彩范文]
With a deep breath， I stepped closer to the edge of the slide． The sunlight reflected off the water below， making it seem both inviting and threatening． I closed my eyes， crossed my legs， wrapped my arms around myself， and took that “Leap of Faith”． Initially， the drop was terrifying， and I could feel my heart racing． As I swung through the slide's twists and turns， fear became a thrill of excitement． It took me only several seconds to get to the bottom of the slide， marking the end of the highest water slide adventure in Asia．
A moment later， my father came down． There was a note of excitement on his face． The teenage boy from before， who had warned me about the sharks， arrived next， wearing a victorious smile． We exchanged wide eyed glances， both recalling the exciting journey we had just conquered． It was a moment of shared success， and my initial unwillingness had transformed into an unforgettable adventure． That day， I learned that everything we want could be on the other side of fear， and in a moment like this， I'd better take a leap of faith．

(2024·福建省泉港第五中學等五校高二下期中)With office developers competing for space and height—just to make a statement， the age of the iconic office building is upon us． Let's start by exploring what “iconic” actually means．
Google the word “iconic” and the definitions include something that is “famous”， “popular” or representative of “particular opinions or a particular time”． The term can also be applied to something that is representative of something else—for instance， the Eiffel Tower is a symbol of Paris．
In architecture， an iconic design is usually a design that is “ground breaking” and one that sets new standards in its field． It is a design that other designers and manufacturers follow， as it becomes a benchmark for other similar products． Furthermore， an iconic design is one that stands up to the test of time， remaining a good design， despite the passing of years， decades and even centuries．
Lord Norman Foster has certainly had a say in the rise of these distinctive structures over the past 15 years． His architectural firm Foster & Partners designed the Gherkin (30 St Mary Axe)， whose completion in 2001 sparked the birth of London's new skyline， taking over the previous one—Britannic Tower． Lord Foster also led the redesign of Wembley Stadium and the Millennium Bridge—globally recognized structures in their own right．
Unusually shaped structures have been around since the Pyramids， but before computers， architectural designs were hand drawn and， consequently， landmark buildings were much more conventional in their nature． Since then， digital technology has moved forward at such a rate that it has pushed us into a new era of architectural innovation．
Whatever your views on these high rise developments， they have turned the London skyline into an exciting， ever changing landscape and， in the process， redefined the concept of an iconic building． But we will still be talking about them a century from now—as we do the Empire State Building—or will another new wave of office blocks simply take their place
篇章導讀：本文是一篇說明文。文章主要說明了標志性建筑的概念。
1．What is the feature of an iconic architecture
A．It is always changing．
B．It needs constant testing．
C．It has pioneering and distinctive designs．
D．It follows the standards that were set earlier．
答案：C
解析：推理判斷題。根據第三段中的“In architecture ．．． in its field．”可知，標志性建筑的設計具有“突破性”，并在其領域中樹立新的標準，由此可推知，標志性建筑的設計具有開創性和獨特性。故選C。
2．What promoted the development of architectural innovation
A．Digital technology．
B．Architectural theory．
C．Curiosity about pyramids．
D．Accidental moves by talented designers．
答案：A
解析：細節理解題。根據倒數第二段中的“Since then ．．． architectural innovation．”可知，數字技術推動了建筑創新的發展。故選A。
3．What does the underlined word “sparked” in Paragraph 4 probably mean
A．Got rid of． B．Brought about．
C．Gave way to． D．Conflicted with．
答案：B
解析：詞義猜測題。根據畫線詞上文“His architectural firm ．．． in 2001”以及下文“the birth of ．．． Britannic Tower”可知，他的建筑公司Foster & Partners設計了St Mary Axe 30號，這取代了之前的不列顛塔，導致了倫敦新天際線的誕生，由此可推知，畫線詞意為“引起，導致”，與brought about同義。故選B。
4．What's the author's attitude towards the iconic office buildings in London
A．Positive． B．Negative．
C．Concerned． D．Pessimistic．
答案：A
解析：推理判斷題。根據最后一段中的“Whatever your views ．．． redefined the concept of an iconic building．”可知，作者認為這些標志性建筑將倫敦的天際線調整為一個令人興奮、不斷變化的景觀，由此可推知，作者對倫敦標志性的辦公大樓持積極態度。故選A。

差不多是我跟澳大利亞說再見的時候了。我在這里過得十分愉快。在這里住了一段時間之后，我最深刻的印象就是不同種族和文化的交融構成了這個國家。盡管自1788年以來，主要的文化影響是西方文化，但少數族裔文化在塑造獨特的澳大利亞文化方面也發揮了作用，還有許多隨著移民而來的新文化的影響。據說現在近一半的澳大利亞公民要么自己出生于海外，要么父母出生于海外。

Dubai， make your day!
Thanks to global connections， Dubai has become an ideal destination for refreshing yourself． Here’s how to plan a one day trip with wow factors．
Have a sky high supper
Combine dining with the views from Burj Khalifa (迪拜塔) by booking a table at At． Mosphere on the 122nd floor． The observation area is just above this restaurant， where you'll enjoy the incredible views with fewer crowds． And with cuisine described as “top drawer”， it is sure to be lunch， afternoon tea or dinner you'll never forget．
Swim above the city
Have a refreshing swim at Aura Skypool， which offers 360 degree views from 50 floors up． From here， the Palm (棕櫚島) and the sea sparkles become clear to see． In addition to its daytime sessions， it hosts sunrise swims and early morning yoga， as well as night bookings until 11 pm．
Enjoy the beach
Steal sunshine on the white sands of Kite Beach， with its views of another symbol of Dubai's skyline: the sail shaped Burj AI Arab (阿拉伯塔酒店)． The beach is free to visit in the daytime． Alternatively， Kitesurf School Dubai offers a variety of sea sports in the afternoon．
Photograph that skyline
Aperture Photos Tours arrange for a local photographer to guide you to capture breathtaking views from the “Vertical Forest” being built in Downtown to Dubai Marina (迪拜碼頭)． The tours are private and available in the afternoon; all you need is a camera and a head for heights．

(2024·安徽省阜陽第一中學高二下月考)Bright and early on the morning of our first full day in Antarctica， L‘ Austral’s Captain Fabien’s voice woke us up as it came through a loudspeaker． If we looked outside right now， he said， we’d see a beautiful sea of icebergs in the golden sunlight． My sister and I jumped out of bed， staring in amazement as we sailed past giant pieces of ice． In the distance， we spotted a group of humpback whales feeding on smaller fishes． Next door， my parents were also waking up to the sights of a new day in Antarctica． Over breakfast， my sister and I excitedly told them about the whales we saw from our room that morning．
You might not immediately think of “family vacation” when talking about a trip to Antarctica， but tour companies like Adventures by Disney are changing that． The company offers guided group trips to destinations across all seven continents in the world．
Our adventure started when we flew to Buenos Aires and explored the beautiful Argentine capital for a day． After leaving Buenos Aires， we flew to Ushuaia on an Adventures by Disney plane． Then， it was the journey toward the Drake Passage． After a speedy Drake Passage crossing， we reached Antarctica early， adding a half day to our scheduled four days on and around the continent．
To those unfamiliar with Adventures by Disney， the fact that you can experience Antarctica—the most distant， extreme continent—with Disney might be surprising． During the trip， there were thoughtful acts， from stamped postcards to send from an Antarctica post office to a champagne party on our final stop of the journey; Adventures by Disney truly thought of everything for us． Antarctica is a life changing destination packed with experiences that can’t be copied． We experienced seasickness when travelling across the Drake Passage， hiked up ice hills alongside lovely animals， and had a taste of champagne． And honestly， it’s going to be hard for the next family trip we may take to compete．

(2024·江蘇省泰州市聯盟校高二下月考)Last summer vacation， I traveled to Sanya in Hainan， China． When my dad told me one of the items on the journey would be one of the highest water slides (水上滑梯) in Asia， I asked my dad repeatedly whether I could stay at home． But my dad said that I would love it and we should go together．
Three days later， I was standing in front of that water slide in Atlantics Waterpark． The slide was located in a building． When I looked up at the tens of thousands of stairs leading to the peak of the building， I thought to myself， “If I fall from that place， I will definitely die．”
As we started climbing the stairs， I saw three words on the wall: Leap of Faith． I had never heard of these words， and at that time they reminded me of Road to Death． Five meters， ten meters … I looked down and thought， “I am going to die today．” Fifteen meters， twenty meters … I thought about the many things I hadn‘t done and asked my dad whether I had life insurance． Twenty five meters， thirty meters … and we were finally at the top， ready to jump into the slide． I looked at the three people next to me and thought， “These are the last three people I will see in my life．”
Suddenly， the teenage boy ahead of me stopped in front of the slide and turned around， “Look down there． If we fall into the shark tank， we will be eaten by those hungry sharks．” We all paused and looked down at the shark tank above the slide tunnel． Just then， a younger boy next to me said， “Excuse me， if you don't want to go now， I will go first．” Then he walked past the teenage boy and me and jumped into the slide， disappearing in an instant．
My father said to me jokingly， “Look， that boy is not even half of your height． Come on， Selina． You can do it．” The teenager turned and stared at me too， “Now， you go first．”
注意：
1．續寫詞數應為150個左右；
2．請按如下格式在相應位置作答。
With a deep breath， I stepped closer to the edge of the slide． ﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍
A moment later， my father came down．﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍
寫前導讀：本文是一篇記敘文。文章主要講述了作者去海南三亞旅游，父親鼓勵作者玩那里亞洲最高的水上滑梯，作者非常害怕，在父親的鼓勵下，作者大膽嘗試水上滑梯了嗎？此次經歷后，作者有什么感悟？
[精彩范文]
With a deep breath， I stepped closer to the edge of the slide． The sunlight reflected off the water below， making it seem both inviting and threatening． I closed my eyes， crossed my legs， wrapped my arms around myself， and took that “Leap of Faith”． Initially， the drop was terrifying， and I could feel my heart racing． As I swung through the slide’s twists and turns， fear became a thrill of excitement． It took me only several seconds to get to the bottom of the slide， marking the end of the highest water slide adventure in Asia．
A moment later， my father came down． There was a note of excitement on his face． The teenage boy from before， who had warned me about the sharks， arrived next， wearing a victorious smile． We exchanged wide eyed glances， both recalling the exciting journey we had just conquered． It was a moment of shared success， and my initial unwillingness had transformed into an unforgettable adventure． That day， I learned that everything we want could be on the other side of fear， and in a moment like this， I’d better take a leap of faith．

(2024·福建省泉港第五中學等五校高二下期中)With office developers competing for space and height—just to make a statement， the age of the iconic office building is upon us． Let's start by exploring what “iconic” actually means．
Google the word “iconic” and the definitions include something that is “famous”， “popular” or representative of “particular opinions or a particular time”． The term can also be applied to something that is representative of something else—for instance， the Eiffel Tower is a symbol of Paris．
In architecture， an iconic design is usually a design that is “ground breaking” and one that sets new standards in its field． It is a design that other designers and manufacturers follow， as it becomes a benchmark for other similar products． Furthermore， an iconic design is one that stands up to the test of time， remaining a good design， despite the passing of years， decades and even centuries．
Lord Norman Foster has certainly had a say in the rise of these distinctive structures over the past 15 years． His architectural firm Foster & Partners designed the Gherkin (30 St Mary Axe)， whose completion in 2001 sparked the birth of London’ s new skyline， taking over the previous one—Britannic Tower． Lord Foster also led the redesign of Wembley Stadium and the Millennium Bridge—globally recognized structures in their own right．
Unusually shaped structures have been around since the Pyramids， but before computers， architectural designs were hand drawn and， consequently， landmark buildings were much more conventional in their nature． Since then， digital technology has moved forward at such a rate that it has pushed us into a new era of architectural innovation．
Whatever your views on these high rise developments， they have turned the London skyline into an exciting， ever changing landscape and， in the process， redefined the concept of an iconic building． But we will still be talking about them a century from now—as we do the Empire State Building—or will another new wave of office blocks simply take their place
篇章導讀：本文是一篇說明文。文章主要說明了標志性建筑的概念。
1．What is the feature of an iconic architecture
A．It is always changing．
B．It needs constant testing．
C．It has pioneering and distinctive designs．
D．It follows the standards that were set earlier．
解析：推理判斷題。根據第三段中的“In architecture ... in its field．”可知，標志性建筑的設計具有“突破性”，并在其領域中樹立新的標準，由此可推知，標志性建筑的設計具有開創性和獨特性。故選C。
2．What promoted the development of architectural innovation
A．Digital technology．
B．Architectural theory．
C．Curiosity about pyramids．
D．Accidental moves by talented designers．
解析：細節理解題。根據倒數第二段中的“Since then ... architectural innovation．”可知，數字技術推動了建筑創新的發展。故選A。
3．What does the underlined word “sparked” in Paragraph 4 probably mean
A．Got rid of． B．Brought about．
C．Gave way to． D．Conflicted with．
解析：詞義猜測題。根據畫線詞上文“His architectural firm ... in 2001”以及下文“the birth of ... Britannic Tower”可知，他的建筑公司Foster & Partners設計了St Mary Axe 30號，這取代了之前的不列顛塔，導致了倫敦新天際線的誕生，由此可推知，畫線詞意為“引起，導致”，與brought about同義。故選B。
4．What's the author's attitude towards the iconic office buildings in London

C．Concerned． D．Pessimistic．
解析：推理判斷題。根據最后一段中的“Whatever your views ... redefined the concept of an iconic building．”可知，作者認為這些標志性建筑將倫敦的天際線調整為一個令人興奮、不斷變化的景觀，由此可推知，作者對倫敦標志性的辦公大樓持積極態度。故選A。
