The Sydney winter isn't really harsh and the weather's generally pleasant.It's great for touring the city on foot and for bushwalking.And the ski slopes are not too far away.
Holiday time
You get the Queen's Birthday holiday weekend in June and the school holidays in July.Aside from within those periods,accommodation costs in the city will generally be lower.
Winter weather
Expect generally cool conditions.The average temperature should range from around 8°C (46°F) at night to 16°C (61°F) in the daytime in mid-winter.Expect from 80mm to 131mm of rainin a month,with the most rain in June tapering into August.
Winter accommodation
Outside of the holiday periods,Sydney accommodation will usually be available and should be relatively cheaper.
Winter activities
•The weather's fine for a walking tour of Sydney.Visit The Rocks,the Sydney Opera House,the Royal Botanic Gardens,Art Gallery of New South Wales,Australian Museum,Hyde Park,Chinatown,Darling Harbour.
•Go on a harbor cruise.At the very least,take a Sydney ferry and cross the harbor to Manly.
•Take a daytrip north,south and west of Sydney.
•Spot the whales as they travel north in the whale migration season.
•Go bushwalking at the Royal National Park.

A.June      
B.July      
C.August    
D.December
57.Which of the following activities is NOT recommended in the passage?B

D.Bushwalking at the Royal National Park.

解答 56-57 CB
56.答案C.考查細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)第the best time to visit Sydney could be in the Australian winter from June 1 to August 31最佳時期是六月到八月.再根據(jù)第二段提到Y(jié)ou get the Queen's Birthday holiday weekend in June and the school holidays in July.Aside from within those periods,accommodation costs in the city will generally be lower可知除了六月和七月,住宿很便宜,故選C項.
57.答案B.考查細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)Winter activities中提到Spot the whales as they travel north in the whale migration season在遷徙的季節(jié)當(dāng)鯨魚游到北方時,可以發(fā)現(xiàn)鯨魚,而不是獵殺鯨魚,故B沒有提到.

點評 考察學(xué)生的細(xì)節(jié)理解和推理判斷能力,做細(xì)節(jié)理解題時一定要找到文章中的原句,和題干進(jìn)行比較,再做出正確的選擇.在做推理判斷題不要以個人的主觀想象代替文章的事實,要根據(jù)文章事實進(jìn)行合乎邏輯的推理判斷.
