16、in different areas of Australia.解析：考查句意理解。從文章第一段“the way of life in the major cities and towns is much the same however many miles divide them”可以知道澳大利亞城鄉(xiāng)有太多的相似性，所以要找它們的差異，需要sharp ear(敏銳的耳朵)去傾聽。本題稍難。答案：D2Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?AMost Australians have ancesto

26、ined devoted and tirelessly pursued his dream. Although his first attempt resulted in a vehicle without reverse gear (倒車裝置)，Henry Ford knew he could make it happen. And，of course，he did. “Forget it，” the experts advised Madame Curie. They agreed radium was a scientifically impossible idea. However，M

27、arie Curie insisted，“I can make it happen.” Lets not forget Orville and Wilbur Wright.

Finally，as you read these accounts under the magnificent lighting of your environment，consider the condition of Benjamin Franklin. He was warned to stop the foolish experimenting with lighting. “What an absurdity and waste of time! Why，nothing could do better than the useful oil lamp.” 【寫作內(nèi)容】1以約30個詞概括短文的要點；2然后以約120個詞寫一篇短文，并包括如下要點：(1)短文給你的啟發(fā)；(2)記述12件與短文中的人物相類似的事件。(3)事件對你的影響?！緦?/p>
