1. A travel journal, also called road journal or travelogue, is a record made by a voyager. Generally in diary form, a travel journal containing descriptions of the traveller's experiences, is normally written during the course of the journey, and may or may not be intended for publish- -ing.
2. The Mekong River (known in China as Lancang Jiang and Thailand as Mae Nam Khong), is a major river in southeastern Asia. It is the longest river in the region. From its source in China's Qinghai Province near the border with Tibet, the Mekong flows generally southeast to the South China Sea, a distance of 4,200 km (2,610 mi). The Mekong crosses Yunnan Province, China, and forms the border between Myanmar (Burma) and Laos and most of the border between Laos and Thailand. It then flows across Cambodia and southern Vietnam into a rich delta before emptying into the South China Sea. In the upper course are steep descents and swift rapids, but the river is navigable south of Louangphrabang in Laos.
注释：navigable adj. 可航行的 Louangphrabang琅勃拉邦

〖难句解读〗
1. They are Dai and grew up in western Yunnan Province near the Lancang River, the Chinese
part of the river that is called the Mekong River in other countries. (p.18, Reading, line
他们是傣族人，在云南省西部靠近澜沧江的地方长大，湄公河在中国境内的这一段叫澜沧江，流经其他国家后就叫湄公河。
这一长句中的“that is called the Mekong River in other countries”是定语从句，修饰先行词the river，关系代词that在定语从句中充当主语。本单元中还有一句“We found a large atlas with good maps that showed details of the world’s geography.”（p.18, Reading, line
26），同样也是that引导的定语从句修饰先行词“good maps”，关系代词that在从句中充当主语。关系代词that在定语从句中也可充当宾语；充当宾语时that可以省略，例如： This is the toy snake that frightens many girls. ( 作主语)
这就是那条吓到许多女孩子的玩具蛇。
This is the book（that） my father gave me as a birthday gift. （作宾语）
这是我父亲作为生日礼物送给我的书。
定语从句中，当先行词为物时，that可与which互换，但以下几种情况只用that.
1). 先行词all, everything, nothing, something, anything, little, much 等不定代词
2). 先行词被all, every, no, some, any, little, much 等修饰。
3). 先行词被序数词或形容词最高级修饰时。
4). 先行词被the only, the very, the same, the last 修饰时。
That white flower is the only one that I really like.
This is the very book that I want to have.
The last place that we visited was the chemical works.
5). 有两个或两个以上的分别表示人和物的先行词，从句应用that,而不是其他。 He talked about the teachers and schools that he had visited.
6). 当主句是以who, which 开头的特殊疑问句时，定语从句多用that,而不用who(whom), which. 例如：Who is the person that is standing at the gate?
2. It was my sister who first had the idea to cycle along the Mekong River from where it begins
to where it ends. (p.18, reading, line 13)
首先想到要沿湄公河从源头到终点骑车旅游的是我姐姐。
It is ... that... 是强调句型，结构是 It + be +被强调部分+ that +句子的其余部分 因此，这句话的原句是 My sister first had the idea to cycle along the Mekong River from where it begins to where it ends. 为了强调主语"My sister"， 将它置于被强调部分，其余部分置于that后面，由此可得。e.g. It is I who am right．
强调句通常用于强调主语、宾语或状语。
（1）强调主语
It is Miss Lucy who teaches us English. (句中被强调的对象指人时，也可用who。)
注意:被强调成分是主语，who／that之后的谓语动词应该在人称和数上与原句中的主语保持一致。如：
It is I that am from Beijing.
(2) 强调宾语
It is English that Miss Lucy teaches us.
(3) 强调状语
3. It makes wide bends or meanders through low valleys to the plains where rice grows. (P18) 河水蜿蜒缓慢地穿过低谷，流向生长稻谷的平原。(p.18, reading, line 33)
在这个句子中，“where rice grows”是定语从句，用来修饰先行词 “the plains”。在包含定语从句的长句中，如果先行词为表示地点的名词，有时用关系副词where，有时用that / which 引导定语从句。关键在于看先行词在从句中起副词作用作地点状语，还是起代词作用作主语或者宾语。例如：
It is the factory where my father has been working for 20 years. （作状语）
It is the factory that / which we visited last week. （作宾语）
关系副词“where”有时候相当于“介词＋which” ，例如：
where=in/on which
This is the room where / in which they watch TV. 这就是他们看电视的房间。
4. Cambodia was in many ways similar to Laos, although it has twice the population.(p.59, reading task, paragraph 1, line 1)
虽然柬埔寨的人口是老挝的两倍，但是它们在许多方面是相似的。
本单元中还有类似的一句：I read in an atlas before our trip that Vietnam has almost seven times the population of Cambodia.(p.59, reading task, paragraph 3, line 2)
1) A be similar to B. A与B相似，这是similar的固定搭配。
2) twice the population (of Laos). 这是表达倍数的一种方式，
结构为“A倍数+the size/ height/ length/ width，etc.+of B”表示“A是B的多少倍”。如： The new building is four times the size of the old one. 这座新楼是那座旧楼的4倍高。 This coat is the same size of that one. 这件衣服与那件大小一样。
在英语中，表示倍数也可以用其他两种句型，如：
3) …倍数+as+形容词或副词的原级+as 表示“…正好是…的多少倍”。 Asia is four times as large as Europe. 亚洲是欧洲的4倍大。 She earns 10 times as much money as she did five years ago. 她挣的钱是5年前的10倍。
4) …倍数+形容词（或副词）的比较级+than 表示“…比…大（长、高、宽等）多少倍”
Your company is three times bigger than ours. 你们公司是我们公司的4倍大。
〖语法点拨〗
The Present Continuous Tense to Express Future Actions
(表示将来意义的现在进行时)
现在进行时由 “to be + v-doing”构成，除了表示动作的正在进行状态，还有表示将来意义的用法，本文中出现了大量的这种用法，如：
when are you leaving？ 你什么时候离开？
How long are you staying in...？ 你准备在...待多久？
When are you coming back？
Are you working this evening? 你什么时候会回来？ 你今晚要工作吗？
I’m singing songs with my classmates. 我将和我的同学一起唱歌。
(1) 英语中的一些动词，特别是表示位置移动的动词，如come, go, drive, leave, arrive, 它们的现在进行时可表示将来时间。例如：
“Is she coming later?” “She will come if she can.”
“她晚些时候会来吗？”“如果可能的话，她会来的。”
“I've just arrived by train,” she said, “I'm coming to see you.”
“我刚乘火车到达，”她说，“我要去见你。”
They are leaving for the USA tomorrow. 他们明天要去美国。
(2) 除了以上这些表示位置移动的动词以外，还有不少动词的现在进行时也可以表示即将发生的动作，尤其是按计划、安排发生的动作：
We're visiting our grandparents next week. 我们下周将去拜访我们的爷爷奶奶。
They are getting married this summer. 他们准备今年夏天结婚。
Who's sitting next to me? 谁会坐在我旁边？
The wounded soldier is dying. 那伤员快死了。
[注意]： 系动词和静态动词一般不用进行时。

1. Women _______ drink more than two cups of coffee a day have a greater chance of having
heart disease than those ________ don’t. （2006北京卷）
A. who ; 不填 B. 不填 ; who C. who ; who D. 不填; 不填
答案：C 此句是定语从句，由关系代词who引导, 修饰主句中的women 和those。关系代词作主语时不能省略，指人用who(宾格用whom)或that ；指物用which或that。解题思路：首先分析句子成分，找出主句中的先行词women和those，然后确定句中需要两个who在从句中分别充当主语，引导一个定语从句。
2. Why! I have nothing to confess. _____ you want me to say? (上海04)
A. What is it that B. What it is that C. How is it that D. How it is that 答案：A 此题考查强调句中强调疑问词时语序的排列。这是一个特殊疑问句,say后面缺少宾语，所以用what.
3. What a table! I’ve never seen such a thing before. It is ______it is long.( 2005湖北)
A．half not as wide as B．wide not as half as
C．not half as wide as D．as wide as not half
答案：C 这道题考察倍数的表达法。题意是：“好长的桌子啊，我从来没有见过这样的桌子，它的宽度还没有长度的一半”。根据比较用法：“„倍数+as+形容词或副词的原级+as„”,而否定词not应放在系动词is后面，由此得出答案。

A
Recently 17 professors at a college in Washington State received airplane tickets to some exciting places. With the tickets was the money for hotels, food and other expenses for two weeks. None of them knew who had paid for the holidays. After the professors returned home, they received gifts like cans, coffee, cameras and pieces of art. Some received notes signed MM for Mystery Man. The mystery man talked by telephone to the first three professors who had received the trips. He told them that he was a businessman in Washington State and that the gifts were his way of saying thanks for their help when he had been a student at the college. A travel agent, who passed the tickets on, said the other professors received gifts because the mystery man wanted to honor their work at the college. The girl would not tell the professors or anyone else the name of the mystery man. She said that was a very nice person who enjoyed traveling. 51.

Without proper planning, tourism can cause problems. For example, too many tourists can crowd public places that are also enjoyed by the inhabitants of a country.
If tourists create too much traffic, the inhabitants become annoyed and unhappy. They begin to dislike tourists and to treat them impolitely. They forget how much tourism can help the country's economy. It is important to think about the people of a destination country and how tourism affects them. Tourism should also advance the well-being (health and happiness) of local inhabitants.
Too much tourism can be a problem. If tourism grows too quickly, people must leave other jobs to work in the tourism industry. This means that other parts of the country's economy can suffer.
On the other hand, if there is not enough tourism, people can lose jobs. Businesses can also lose money; it costs a great deal of money to build large hotels, airports, air terminals, first-class roads, and other support facilities needed by tourist attractions. For example, a major international-class tourism hotel can cost as much as 50 thousand dollars per room. to build. If this room is not used most of the time, the owners of the hotel will lose money.
Building a hotel is just a beginning. There must be many support facilities as well, including roads to get to the hotels, electricity, sewers （阴沟）to handle waste, and water. All of these support facilities cost money. If they are not used because there are not enough tourists, jobs and money are lost.
62. Which of the following has most probably been discussed in the paragraph that goes before this passage?
A. It is extremely important to develop tourism. B. Building roads and hotels is essential. C. Support facilities are highly necessary. D. Planning is of great importance to tourism. A. a bad effect on other industries. B. a change of tourists' customs
C. over-crowdedness of places of interest D. pressure on traffic
63. Too much tourism can cause all these problems EXCEPT _____.
64. Not enough tourism can lead to _____. A. an increase of unemployment
B. a decrease in tourist attractions C. the higher cost of support facilities D. a rise in price and a fall in pay
65. The world "handle" in the last paragraph most probably means _____.
19
A. carry away B. pick up E
C. get in D. take down
Suggestions for Keeping Your Travel Journal Fun
Here are some suggestions for keeping your travel journals.
Pack your journal and pens so they are within reach while you are driving. I keep a basket in the front seat with me that includes my journal, several pens, my camera, any maps I’m bringing and my wallet.
Don’t write while you are driving. It might seem like I don’t need to say this, but sometimes I l am really tempted to try this. It is much safer to pull off the road, even just for a minute, so you can focus on the writing and not put yourself (or anyone else) at risk. Take advantage of little minutes to write. I often start journal entries while waiting in the drive through lanes of fast food restaurants. Or, write when you pull into a gas station, or before you pull out.
Focus on the events of the journey. When you head out on any trip, leave your worries and concerns behind you. If your problems are at home, you can also focus on your destination. Become an observer noticing the details of the land and scenery around you.
Pick up brochures. These are a great way to remember the places you visit, especially ones that you want to include in your special travel journal of destination.
If your have a camera, take pictures along the way. You can insert these into your journal after you get back. I generally paste an envelope on a journal page and insert the pictures in the envelope. That way, they stay with correct pages, and they are not likely to fall out each time you open the journal.
Think about bringing a timer. I generally bring my kitchen timer along so I can do 10-minute-timed writings at each stop. This lets me focus on the writing while the clock keeps me on schedule.
Read more about this writing technique. Put these guidelines to work the next time you decide to take a day trip or a vacation.

A. It is cool to write while you are driving.
B. It is dangerous for both you and anyone else if you write while you are driving. C. Others but not you will be put at risk if you write while driving. D. You will be in danger writing while driving but others will be safe. 69. What does the writer use the envelope to do?
A. To put the letters he wants to send during the trips.
B. To put the money and the paper he needs during the trips.

Many people put their thoughts into a diary but the others write about their travels in that is called a travel journal. What is the difference between the two? For a thing, a journal isn't as
person as a diary. For another, a travel journal has a different purpose. In a journal, writers also record their experience, ideas and afterthoughts about they have seen. While diary writers try to try to better understood what has happened to them much later. Unlike a diary, a travel journal is writing for lots of readers. Its topics can be different from a diary, often included people, things, and events less familiar to the readers.

One possible version: on foot.
My preference depends on the purpose of the travel. On a vacation I travel to refresh myself and to see the countryside. When I use my feet and walk on a grass covered path along a river or among the hills I feel detached from the noise of the city and closer to the nature. And when I travel on foot I get more freedom. I can plan my own schedule. I can choose my own route. I can stop where I like. And I can see things and people that I might miss if I travel on a train or on a bus.
When faster and more convenient ways for travel are becoming available, I still prefer using my own feet because I get much pleasure from it.

1. A travel journal, also called road journal or travelogue, is a record made by a voyager. Generally in diary form, a travel journal containing descriptions of the traveller's experiences, is normally written during the course of the journey, and may or may not be intended for publish- -ing.
2. The Mekong River (known in China as Lancang Jiang and Thailand as Mae Nam Khong), is a major river in southeastern Asia. It is the longest river in the region. From its source in China's Qinghai Province near the border with Tibet, the Mekong flows generally southeast to the South China Sea, a distance of 4,200 km (2,610 mi). The Mekong crosses Yunnan Province, China, and forms the border between Myanmar (Burma) and Laos and most of the border between Laos and Thailand. It then flows across Cambodia and southern Vietnam into a rich delta before emptying into the South China Sea. In the upper course are steep descents and swift rapids, but the river is navigable south of Louangphrabang in Laos.

〖难句解读〗
1. They are Dai and grew up in western Yunnan Province near the Lancang River, the Chinese
part of the river that is called the Mekong River in other countries. (p.18, Reading, line
他们是傣族人，在云南省西部靠近澜沧江的地方长大，湄公河在中国境内的这一段叫澜沧江，流经其他国家后就叫湄公河。
这一长句中的“that is called the Mekong River in other countries”是定语从句，修饰先行词the river，关系代词that在定语从句中充当主语。本单元中还有一句“We found a large atlas with good maps that showed details of the world’s geography.”（p.18, Reading, line
26），同样也是that引导的定语从句修饰先行词“good maps”，关系代词that在从句中充当主语。关系代词that在定语从句中也可充当宾语；充当宾语时that可以省略，例如： This is the toy snake that frightens many girls. ( 作主语)
这就是那条吓到许多女孩子的玩具蛇。
This is the book（that） my father gave me as a birthday gift. （作宾语）
这是我父亲作为生日礼物送给我的书。
定语从句中，当先行词为物时，that可与which互换，但以下几种情况只用that.
1). 先行词all, everything, nothing, something, anything, little, much 等不定代词
2). 先行词被all, every, no, some, any, little, much 等修饰。
3). 先行词被序数词或形容词最高级修饰时。
4). 先行词被the only, the very, the same, the last 修饰时。
That white flower is the only one that I really like.
This is the very book that I want to have.
The last place that we visited was the chemical works.
5). 有两个或两个以上的分别表示人和物的先行词，从句应用that,而不是其他。 He talked about the teachers and schools that he had visited.
6). 当主句是以who, which 开头的特殊疑问句时，定语从句多用that,而不用who(whom), which. 例如：Who is the person that is standing at the gate?
2. It was my sister who first had the idea to cycle along the Mekong River from where it begins
to where it ends. (p.18, reading, line 13)
首先想到要沿湄公河从源头到终点骑车旅游的是我姐姐。
It is ... that... 是强调句型，结构是 It + be +被强调部分+ that +句子的其余部分 因此，这句话的原句是 My sister first had the idea to cycle along the Mekong River from where it begins to where it ends. 为了强调主语"My sister"， 将它置于被强调部分，其余部分置于that后面，由此可得。e.g. It is I who am right．
强调句通常用于强调主语、宾语或状语。
（1）强调主语
It is Miss Lucy who teaches us English. (句中被强调的对象指人时，也可用who。)
注意:被强调成分是主语，who／that之后的谓语动词应该在人称和数上与原句中的主语保持一致。如：
It is I that am from Beijing.
(2) 强调宾语
It is English that Miss Lucy teaches us.
(3) 强调状语
3. It makes wide bends or meanders through low valleys to the plains where rice grows. (P18) 河水蜿蜒缓慢地穿过低谷，流向生长稻谷的平原。(p.18, reading, line 33)
在这个句子中，“where rice grows”是定语从句，用来修饰先行词 “the plains”。在包含定语从句的长句中，如果先行词为表示地点的名词，有时用关系副词where，有时用that / which 引导定语从句。关键在于看先行词在从句中起副词作用作地点状语，还是起代词作用作主语或者宾语。例如：
It is the factory where my father has been working for 20 years. （作状语）
It is the factory that / which we visited last week. （作宾语）
关系副词“where”有时候相当于“介词＋which” ，例如：
where=in/on which
This is the room where / in which they watch TV. 这就是他们看电视的房间。
4. Cambodia was in many ways similar to Laos, although it has twice the population.(p.59, reading task, paragraph 1, line 1)
虽然柬埔寨的人口是老挝的两倍，但是它们在许多方面是相似的。
本单元中还有类似的一句：I read in an atlas before our trip that Vietnam has almost seven times the population of Cambodia.(p.59, reading task, paragraph 3, line 2)
1) A be similar to B. A与B相似，这是similar的固定搭配。
2) twice the population (of Laos). 这是表达倍数的一种方式，
结构为“A倍数+the size/ height/ length/ width，etc.+of B”表示“A是B的多少倍”。如： The new building is four times the size of the old one. 这座新楼是那座旧楼的4倍高。 This coat is the same size of that one. 这件衣服与那件大小一样。
在英语中，表示倍数也可以用其他两种句型，如：
3) …倍数+as+形容词或副词的原级+as 表示“…正好是…的多少倍”。 Asia is four times as large as Europe. 亚洲是欧洲的4倍大。 She earns 10 times as much money as she did five years ago. 她挣的钱是5年前的10倍。
4) …倍数+形容词（或副词）的比较级+than 表示“…比…大（长、高、宽等）多少倍”
Your company is three times bigger than ours. 你们公司是我们公司的4倍大。

heart disease than those ________ don’t. （2006北京卷）
A. who ; 不填 B. 不填 ; who C. who ; who D. 不填; 不填
答案：C 此句是定语从句，由关系代词who引导, 修饰主句中的women 和those。关系代词作主语时不能省略，指人用who(宾格用whom)或that ；指物用which或that。解题思路：首先分析句子成分，找出主句中的先行词women和those，然后确定句中需要两个who在从句中分别充当主语，引导一个定语从句。

Two teenagers had to be saved from a steep mountainside in Scotland earlier today. They were members of a party of youngsters who were in the second week of a fortnight’s camping in the mountains. The two boys, both from Birmingham, had been with a party of ten others who,

Without proper planning, tourism can cause problems. For example, too many tourists can crowd public places that are also enjoyed by the inhabitants of a country.
If tourists create too much traffic, the inhabitants become annoyed and unhappy. They begin to dislike tourists and to treat them impolitely. They forget how much tourism can help the country's economy. It is important to think about the people of a destination country and how tourism affects them. Tourism should also advance the well-being (health and happiness) of local inhabitants.
Too much tourism can be a problem. If tourism grows too quickly, people must leave other jobs to work in the tourism industry. This means that other parts of the country's economy can suffer.
On the other hand, if there is not enough tourism, people can lose jobs. Businesses can also lose money; it costs a great deal of money to build large hotels, airports, air terminals, first-class roads, and other support facilities needed by tourist attractions. For example, a major international-class tourism hotel can cost as much as 50 thousand dollars per room. to build. If this room is not used most of the time, the owners of the hotel will lose money.
Building a hotel is just a beginning. There must be many support facilities as well, including roads to get to the hotels, electricity, sewers （阴沟）to handle waste, and water. All of these support facilities cost money. If they are not used because there are not enough tourists, jobs and money are lost.
62. Which of the following has most probably been discussed in the paragraph that goes before this passage?
A. It is extremely important to develop tourism. B. Building roads and hotels is essential. C. Support facilities are highly necessary. D. Planning is of great importance to tourism. A. a bad effect on other industries. B. a change of tourists' customs
C. over-crowdedness of places of interest D. pressure on traffic
63. Too much tourism can cause all these problems EXCEPT _____.
64. Not enough tourism can lead to _____. A. an increase of unemployment
B. a decrease in tourist attractions C. the higher cost of support facilities D. a rise in price and a fall in pay
65. The world "handle" in the last paragraph most probably means _____.
19
A. carry away B. pick up E
C. get in D. take down
Suggestions for Keeping Your Travel Journal Fun
Here are some suggestions for keeping your travel journals.
Pack your journal and pens so they are within reach while you are driving. I keep a basket in the front seat with me that includes my journal, several pens, my camera, any maps I’m bringing and my wallet.
Don’t write while you are driving. It might seem like I don’t need to say this, but sometimes I l am really tempted to try this. It is much safer to pull off the road, even just for a minute, so you can focus on the writing and not put yourself (or anyone else) at risk. Take advantage of little minutes to write. I often start journal entries while waiting in the drive through lanes of fast food restaurants. Or, write when you pull into a gas station, or before you pull out.
Focus on the events of the journey. When you head out on any trip, leave your worries and concerns behind you. If your problems are at home, you can also focus on your destination. Become an observer noticing the details of the land and scenery around you.
Pick up brochures. These are a great way to remember the places you visit, especially ones that you want to include in your special travel journal of destination.
If your have a camera, take pictures along the way. You can insert these into your journal after you get back. I generally paste an envelope on a journal page and insert the pictures in the envelope. That way, they stay with correct pages, and they are not likely to fall out each time you open the journal.
Think about bringing a timer. I generally bring my kitchen timer along so I can do 10-minute-timed writings at each stop. This lets me focus on the writing while the clock keeps me on schedule.
Read more about this writing technique. Put these guidelines to work the next time you decide to take a day trip or a vacation.

Many people put their thoughts into a diary but the others write about their travels in that is called a travel journal. What is the difference between the two? For a thing, a journal isn't as
person as a diary. For another, a travel journal has a different purpose. In a journal, writers also record their experience, ideas and afterthoughts about they have seen. While diary writers try to try to better understood what has happened to them much later. Unlike a diary, a travel journal is writing for lots of readers. Its topics can be different from a diary, often included people, things, and events less familiar to the readers.
