The new measures were released by the Australian Department of Tertiary Education, Skills, Jobs and Workplace Relations in September.As a result, the student visa application process for overseas students has been simplified, and the deposit (押金) required to study in Australia has been reduced. Language requirements for overseas students have also been eased.Also, overseas students receiving a higher education in Australia will be granted a working visa lasting from two to four years after graduation, as long as they meet the basic IELTS requirement.“This change will definitely make Australia a more attractive destination for Chinese students planning to study overseas，” says Wang Lan, a consultant from Education International Cooperation Group (EIC), a Beijingbased company that provides services to students wishing to study overseas.However, in the past few years, many of Wangs student clients (客户) could not start studies in Australia because they did not meet the language requirements. Visa processing took a long time and deposit regulations were tough. The change in policy is good news for the parents of students wishing to study in Australia, Wang says.A 22yearold female student surnamed Li, in Beijing, who is planning to do her postgraduate studies in Australia, learned about the policy change several weeks ago.“According to the previous deposit requirement for my student visa, my family was required to put down 550，000 yuan ($86，850) . Now we only need to prepare 410，000 yuan. This is a relief for my parents，” Li says.She also says that the two to four years working visa makes her feel much clearer about her study plans.“I believe several years of working experience abroad will strengthen my competitiveness when I return to China，” she says. Gaining a competitive advantage is the major reason for Chinese students to study abroad, according to the report by EIC.【语篇解读】这是一篇时文阅读材料。报道了澳大利亚高等教育、技能、工作和职场关系部通过了一项法案，确保更多的国际学生到澳洲去深造。1Whats the main idea of the passage?ALanguage requirement for over seas students have been eased in Australia.BAustralia is a most attractive place for students in China.CAustralia widens window of opportunity for international students.DMore students will work in Australia after their graduation.【解析】主旨大意题。短文开头一句即为主题句。由“Australia has passed regulations that will enable more international students to further their education in the country.”的意思可知澳大利亚为国际学生去该国学习深造打开了方便之门。因此答案为C。【答案】C2After the new regulations are passed， Amore students will come to Australia to workBmore Chinese students will choose to live in AustraliaCthe opportunities to work in Australia decrease for overseas studentsDmore Chinese students will choose to further their education in Australia【解析】细节理解题。由“This change will definitely make Australia a more attractive destination for Chinese students planning to study overseas”可知答案为D。【答案】D3How much can Lis parents save according to the new regulations?A550，000 yuanB140, 000 yuanC410，000 yuanD86，850 yuan【解析】数据推算题。根据“According to the previous deposit requirement for my student visa, my family was required to put down 550，000 yuan ($86，850).

The city s beaches are packed with locals and tourists during the summer months.“The father heard a scream and turned to see his son trashing (扭动) about in the water，” police said.“Fortunately, the shark swam away and the boy was helped to shore by his father.”Lifesaving Club spokesman Nick Miller: “It got him around the top of his left leg and the father came and dragged him out of water.” He said the boy was bleeding heavily when he was brought to shore. “There was a lot of pain, as you can imagine.” The teenager was airlifted to hospital for treatment for leg injuries.Police said the bites “cut through to the bone”， but the boy did not appear to have sustained any fractures(骨折). He was in a stable condition now.Several beaches were closed after the attack. Water police and lifeguards were searching for the shark, while police hoped to identify its species by the shape of the bite marks. But they said it was too early to say what type of shark attacked the boy. “I dont even know if he saw it，” Miller said.Many shark species live in the waters off Sydneys beaches, but attacks on humans are still relatively rare. However, there were two attacks on successive days earlier this month, one on a navy diver in Sydney harbor, not far from the famous Opera House, and the other on a surfer at the citys worldfamous Bondi beach.Fishermen say shark numbers are on the rise. There is a ban on commercial fishing in the harbor, which has increased fish stocks. Marine experts also claim environmental protection has created a cleaner environment, attracting sharks closer to shore as they chase fish. Many shark species, including the Great Whitethe maneater made famous in Steven Spielbergs Jawsare protected in Australian waters.【语篇解读】本文通过一个男孩被鲨鱼咬伤这件事指出了鲨鱼对人类的威胁并分析了鲨鱼数量上升的几个原因。9The report mainly tells us Ashark attacks on humans are on the riseBsharks attacked humans three times in one monthCa boy was attacked by a shark at a Sydney beachDshark numbers are increasing in the waters off Sydneys beaches【解析】主旨大意题。本文在第一段就点出了主题：A shark savaged a schoolboys leg while he was surfing with his father at a beach in Sydney on February 23.故答案应为C项。【答案】C10The underlined word “savaged” in the first paragraph probably means AattractedBdraggedCbitDpacked【解析】猜测词义题。从全文的描述，特别是第五段Police said the bites “cut through to the bone”，but the boy did not appear to have sustained any fractures(骨折)可知，男孩是被鲨鱼咬了。【答案】C11What do we know about the city of Sydney from the passage?AIt is one of the largest cities in Australia.BSydney harbor is not far from the famous Opera House.CThere are many locals and tourists on its coast all year round.DThere are few shark species in the waters off Sydneys beaches.【解析】细节理解题。从倒数第二段中的one on a navy diver in Sydney harbor, not far from the famous Opera House，可知答案。【答案】B12All the followings are the causes of Australias sharks increasing EXCEPT that Aenvironmental protection has created a cleaner environmentBa ban on commercial fishing has increased fish numbersCmany shark species are protected in AustraliawatersDthe film Jaws made the Great White famous【解析】推理判断题。根据最后一段的Many shark species, including the Great Whitethe maneater made famous in Steven Spielberg s Jawsare protected in Australian waters.可知答案。【答案】DD(2016河北衡水中学二模)To American visitors, Iceland is a very interesting country, partly because it is different in so many ways from what he or she is used to seeing at home.There are quite a few things that are not done，or that do not exist on the islandquite a few “Nos”There is no pollution，for instance.No dogs are permitted in Reykjavik，the capital.There is no television on Thursdays or during the entire month of July，and only three hours of blackandwhite TV the rest of the time.There is no hard liquor (烈酒) on Wednesdays and no beer at any time.There are no handguns, only one jail of thirtyfive cells (狱室)in the entire landan admirable figure, even for a small country of 313，376 people.There is no army，air force or navy.There is no tipping for anything.There are no large stores open on Saturdays or Sundays.
