朗阁名师范利文点评

1. 本次考试难度中等。

2. 整体分析：P1= V121020 P2= V140125。涉及海洋类、经济类、语言类。

3. 主流题型：判断，单选，summary，heading。没有多选。有考察填空题。配对没有考到段落细节配对和人名观点配对，降低了整体难度。

4.P1 Bondi Beach is about one kilometre long (≈0.6 miles) and receives many visitors throughout the year. Surf Life Saving Australia has given different hazard ratings to Bondi Beach in 2004. While the northern end has been rated a gentle 4 (with 10 as the most hazardous), the southern side is rated as a 7 due to a famous rip current known as the "Backpackers' Express" because of its proximity to the bus stop, and the unwillingness of tourists to walk the length of the beach to safer swimming. The south end of the beach is generally reserved for surfboard riding. Yellow and red flags define safe swimming areas, and visitors are advised to swim between them. There is an underwater shark net shared, during the summer months, with other beaches along the southern part of the coast. Pods of whales and dolphins have been sighted in the bay during the months of migration. Fairy penguins, while uncommon, are sometimes also seen swimming close to shore or amongst surfers in southern line-up.

In 2007, the Guinness World Record for the largest swimsuit photo shoot was set at Bondi Beach, with 1,010 women wearing bikinis taking part.

Bondi Beach was added to the Australian National Heritage List in 2008.

Sport and recreation

Bondi Beach is the end point of the City to Surf Fun Run which is held each year in August. The race attracts over 63,000 entrants who complete the 14 km run from the central business district of Sydney to Bondi Beach. Other annual activities at Bondi Beach include Flickerfest, Australia's premier international short film festival in January, World Environment Day in June, and Sculpture By The Sea in November. In addition to many activities, the Bondi Beach Markets is open every Sunday. Many Irish and British tourists spend Christmas Day at the beach.

An Oceanway connects Bondi to South Head to the north and other beaches to the south up to Coogee.

Bondi Beach hosted the beach volleyball competition at the 2000 Summer Olympics. A temporary 10,000-seat stadium, a much smaller stadium, 2 warm-up courts, and 3 training courts were set up to host the tournament.

5. P2。讲社会发展，和城市的关系还有和城市的发展，有个research 指出 cold weather 跟发达国家的关系成正比,还举了很多例子,但也有人反对,比如说Singapore。讲到天气变化对各地的影响，开头说一个frost席卷了美国，造成全国上下冰冻一片。又对比欧洲、非洲、美国、新加坡、墨西哥，提到一个Master因为在看一本“蚊子的书”的时候想到费城黄热病可能和气温有关，因为很冷，蚊子都冻死了，就没有传染介质了。然后就开始有很多人，写了很多书，做了很多实验，对比了粮食的spread从欧洲到欧洲很快，但是到非洲很慢，最后还提到这个master觉的气温虽然是原因，但影响社会发展的还有其他原因，比如国家基础建设，但是他觉的气候会影响财富，财富影响建设，所以归根结蒂大家互相影响，还有非洲的aids的问题，说不应该知识经济援助他们的政治系统，还应该教他们种东西之类。

6. P3 新题语言研究。类似文章参照剑桥4(obtaining linguistic data)
