【分析】
本文是一封邀请信：作者邀请Mary参加下星期天9点在学校大厅举行的讲座．并且讲述了邀请的原因和意义。
【详解】第一处：考查不定式。句意：我写信是邀请你参加下周日举办的演讲。分析句子，be held作后置定语，表示将来，所以用不定式，lecture后加to。
第二处：考查形容词。句意：最近几年，学习汉语正变得越来越流行。修饰名词，所以用形容词作定语，把recently改为recent。
第三处：考查主谓一致。句意：最近几年，学习汉语正变得越来越流行。主语为learning Chinese动名词，所以用第三人称单数谓语，把have改为has。
第四处：考查名词。句意：很多外籍学生也意识到了学习汉语的重要性和必要性。作宾语，前面有the，所以用名词，把important改为importance。
第五处：考查定语从句。句意：一个著名的语言学教授被邀请做一个演讲，这对你的汉语学习将会有很大的帮助。what is of great help for your Chinese learning为非限制性定语从句修饰前面整个句子，先行词为物，在非限制性定语从句中作主语，所以用which引导，把what改为which。
第六处：考查定语从句。句意：在这个演讲中，你会知道学习汉语为什么要集中精神。先行词为reasons，在定语从句中作原因状语，所以用why引导，把for改为why。
第七处：考查固定搭配。句意：另外，很多学习汉语的建议会提供给你。what's more而且，为固定搭配，故去掉the。
第八处：考查不定式。句意：更重要的是，你会被鼓励更加刻苦。be encouraged to do sth被鼓励做某事，故把making改为make。
第九处：考查副词。句意：因此，我希望你能抓住这次机会。前后句意是因果关系，所以用therefore表达，把However改为Therefore。
第十处：考查词义辨析。句意：如果你能及早回复，我将不胜感激。修饰动词，所以用副词，high指具体的，highly表示抽象的，把high改为highly。
【点睛】短文改错解题步骤。
1先通读全文．认真阅读短文，在做题之前确保已经弄清原文大意。注意文章中上下文的逻辑关系是否正确，时态、人称、主谓、指代等是否一致。
2．聚焦出题热点、综合运用所学语言知识，分句（注意以句子为单位而不是以行为单位）对不同的错误情况进行分析和回答（即改词、加词或减词）。
3．再次通读全文，校对自己的改正是否正确．一般各种改错的方式都应该用到，如果出现了某一种改法（如加词、减词等）没有用到，要考虑自己的改错应该有问题，要对刚才不是很有把握的行进行推敲。在自己认为正确的行后划勾，并且校对其他行改正的符号是否准确，大小写是否拼写正确（这点同学们很容易忽视）。如果某一行有两种改错方式要推敲哪一种是最佳改法。
三、 阅读理解
21. American author Mark Twain once noted that “life would be surely happier if we could only be born at the age of 80 and gradually approach 18.” Twain’s words were only one of many complaints about aging. The ancient Greek poet Homer called old age “hateful”, and William Shakespeare termed it “terrible winter”.
Alexander the Great, who conquered most of the known world before he died around 323 B.C., may have been looking for a river that healed the ravages of age. During the 12th century A.D., a king called Prester John ruled a land that had a river of gold and a fountain of youth.
But the name linked most closely to the search for a fountain of youth is 16th-century Spanish explorer Juan Ponce de Leon. He thought it would be found in Florida. In St. Augustine, the oldest city in the U.S., there’s a tourist attraction. It is said to be the fountain of youth that Ponce de Leon discovered soon after he arrived in what is now Florida in 1513. However, elderly visitors who drink the spring’s water don’t turn into teenagers.
But the tale of the search for a fountain of youth is so appealing that it survives anyway, says Ryan K. Smith, a professor of history. “People are more attracted by the story of looking and not finding than they are by the idea that the fountain might be out there somewhere.”
Still, a few grains of truth have helped to support the story. Kathleen Deagan, a professor of archaeology, says a graveyard and the remains of a Spanish mission dating back to St. Augustine’s founding in 1565 have been discovered near the so-called fountain of youth. Michelle Reyna, a spokesperson for the Fountain of Youth Archaeological Park in St. Augustine, says the fountain has been a tourist attraction since at least 1901 and may have been attracting visitors since 1860.
61．According to the passage, who searched for a fountain of youth?
A. Ponce de Leon       B. William Shakespeare.
  C. Kathleen Deagan     D. Michelle Reyna
62．What does the underlined word “ravages” in the second paragraph probably mean?
A. Growth.       B. Limits. C. Damages. D. Benefits.
63．What is the attitude of people towards the fountain of youth?
A. People find much pleasure in looking for it.  
B. People believe the existence of it somewhere.
C. People have no interest in searching for it.
D. People consider the idea of the fountain of youth absurd.
64．The passage mainly tells us _____.
A. how the fountain of youth came into being  
B. why some famous people hate becoming old
C. how to remain young forever    
D. whether the fountain of youth exists
65．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. The underlined words “the story” refers to Alexander the Great ruling a land that had a river of gold and a fountain of youth.
B. Augustine, which is the oldest city in the U.S, lies in Florida.
C. Some elderly visitors find themselves younger after drinking the water from the fountain of youth.
D. Kathleen Deagan is the spokesperson for the Fountain of Youth Archaeological Park.

22. Given Australia’s size and the fact that early settlements were far apart, Australian society is remarkably homogeneous (同种的). Its citizens are fundamentally prosperous and the way of life in the major cities and towns is much the same however many miles divide them. It takes a sharp ear to identify regional accents.
However, there is some difference in lifestyle between city dwellers and the country people. Almost 90 per cent of the population lives in the fast-paced cities along the coast and has little more than a passing familiarity with the desert. The major cities preserve pockets of colonial heritage, but the overall impression is modern, with new buildings reflecting the country’s youth. In contrast, the rural communities tend to be slow-moving and conservative. For many years, Australia was said to have “ridden on the sheep’s back”, a reference to wool being the country’s main money earner. However, the wool industry is no longer dominant. Much of Australia’s ly sound economy is now achieved from natural coal and wheat, and by being the largest diamond producer in the world. Newer industries such as tourism and wine making are also increasingly important. Australians are generally friendly and relaxed, with a self-deprecating sense of humor. On the whole, Australia is a society without hierarchies (等级制度), an attitude generally held to stem from its prisoner beginnings.
Yet, contrary to widespread belief, very few Australians have true prisoner origins. Within only one generation of the arrival of the First Fleet in 1788, Australia had become a nation of immigrants. Originally coming almost entirely from the British Isles, today one in three Australians comes from elsewhere. Australia’s liberal postwar immigration policies led to an influx of survivors from war-torn Europe, most notably Greeks, Italians, Poles and Germans.
The emphasis has shifted in recent years and today the majority of new immigrants are from Southeast Asia. Today Australia is a ‘blend of nations’ and although some racism exists, it has generally been a successful experiment and the country is justifiably proud to have one of the most harmonious multicultural communities in the world.
33. What does the writer mean by saying “It takes a sharp ear to identify regional accents.” in the first paragraph?
   A. Australians speak Standard English with no local accents.
   B. You have to practice a lot to learn to understand the different accents.
   C. The Australian regional accents are very difficult to understand indeed.
   D. There is not much difference between the accents in different areas of Australia.
34. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Most Australians have ancestors who were prisoners.
B. The Australian economy is dependent on sheep exports.
C. The majority of people living in Australia come from Europe.
D. The pace of life is different in the city and in the country.
35. We can infer from the passage that _____.
A. there are no signs of Australia’s colonial past in its modern cities
B. Australia’s recent immigration policy encourages immigrants from Southeast Asia
C. immigrants from Southeast Asia have brought racial problems
D. “riding on sheep’s back” resulted in slow development in rural communities
