Take to the water on one of three magnificent daily harbour cruises(游船). You can also travel free on regular Sydney Buses, Sydney Ferries or CityRail services (limited area), so you can go to every corner of this beautiful city.Imagine browsing at Darling Harbour, sampling the famous seafood at Watsons Bay or enjoying the city lights on an evening ferry cruise. The possibilities and plans are endless with a SydneyPass. Wherever you decide to go, remember that bookings are not required on any of our services so tickets are treated on a first in, first seated basis.SydneyPasses are available for 3, 5 or 7 days for use over a 7 calendar day period. With a 3 or 5 day pass you choose on which days out of the 7 you want to use it.

D. $420.BTransportation and communication networks bring people together. Yet sometimes people themselves create barriers(障碍) to transportation and communication. In some countries, laws stop people from moving freely from place to place. Over the centuries, many groups of people have been denied the freedom to travel because of their race, religion, or nationality. In the Middle Ages, for example, Jews were often forbidden to move about freely within certain cities. South Africas government used to require black Africans to carry passes when they travel within the country. Some governments require all citizens to carry identification papers and to report to government officials whenever they move.Countries set up customs posts at their borders. Foreign travellers must go through a customs inspection before they are allowed to travel in the country. Usually travellers have to carry special papers such as passports and visas(签证). Some countries even limit the number of visitors to their country each year. Others allow tourists to visit only certain areas of the country, or they may require that travellers be with an official guide at all times during their stay. Many of those barriers to travel also act as barriers to communication. When two governments disagree with each other on important matters, they usually do not want their citizens to exchange news or ideas freely. Countries often try to keep military or industrial information secret.Today, people have the ability to travel, to communicate, and to transport goods more quickly and easily than ever before. Natural barriers that were difficult or dangerous to cross a hundred years ago can now be crossed easily. The barriers that people themselves make are not so easy to overcome. But in spite of all the different kinds of barriers, people continue to enjoy travel and the exchange of goods and ideas.4. The examples in paragraph 2 are used to tell the readers that _.A. people have been allowed to travel freely within the countryB. people have not been permitted to travel freely for various reasonsC. travellers have to carry special papers such as passports and visasD. customs posts are necessary at the borders of the countries5. Some governments limit the freedom of communication because_.A. they intend to keep their national secrets unknown to othersB. they think such freedom will lead to warsC. they often disagree with each other on important mattersD. they want to show their authority over communication6. We may learn from the passage that _.A. people do not care about the removal of barriers between countriesB. people can not remove the obstacles made by themselvesC. man-made barriers are sometimes harder to overcome than natural onesD. barriers should be taken for granted as they always exist7. Which of the following can serve as the best title of the passage?A. Barriers Made by People B. Functions of CommunicationC. Restrictions on Transportation D. Progress of Human Society CEngineering students are supposed to be examples of practicality and rationality（理智）, but when it comes to my college education I am an idealist and a fool. In high school I wanted to be an electrical engineer and, of course, any sensible student with my aims would have chosen a college with a large engineering department, famous reputation and lots of good labs and research equipment. But thats not what I did.I chose to study engineering at a small liberal-arts (文科) university that doesnt even offer a major in electrical engineering. Obviously, this was not a practical choice; I came here for more noble reasons. I wanted a broad education that would provide me with flexibility and a value system to guide me in my career. I wanted to open my eyes and expand my vision by interacting with people who werent studying science or engineering. My parents, teachers and other adults praised me for such a sensible choice. They told me I was wise and mature beyond my 18 years, and I believed them.I headed off to college sure I was going to have an advantage over those students who went to big engineering “factories” where they didnt care if you have values or were flexible. I was going to be a complete engineer: technical genius and sensitive humanist (人文学者) all in one.Now Im not so sure. Somewhere along the way my noble ideals crashed into reality, as all noble ideals eventually do. After three years of struggling to balance math, physics and engineering courses with liberal-arts courses, I have learned there are reasons why few engineering students try to reconcile (协调) engineering with liberal-arts courses in college.The reality that has blocked my path to become the typical successful student is that engineering and the liberal arts simply dont mix as easily as I assumed in high school. Individually they shape a person in very different ways; together they threaten to confuse. The struggle to reconcile the two fields of study is difficult.8. The author chose to study engineering at a small liberal-arts university because he _.A. wanted to be an example of practicality and rationalityB. intended to be a combination of engineer and humanistC. wanted to coordinate engineering with liberal-arts courses in collegeD. intended to be a sensible student with noble ideals9. According to the author, by interacting with people who study liberal arts, engineering students can _.A. balance engineering and the liberal artsB. receive guidance in their careersC. become noble idealistsD. broaden their horizons10. In the eyes of the author, a successful engineering student is expected _. A. to have an excellent academic recordB. to be wise and matureC. to be imaginative with a value system to guide himD. to be a technical genius with a wide vision第2节 （共5小题；每题两分，满分10分）根据短文内容。从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳答案。选项中有两项为多余选项。Sometimes it can be hard to recognize a true friend, one who is loyal and one who is worth keeping by your side.
