【分析】
本文属于材料作文。首先确定文章的主题（给高三的同学写一封公开信），并围绕以下要点回信：你自己高三时学习方面的变化；你自己高三时生活方面的变化；你对高三同学的建议。列出简单的提纲后，再用连词铺设好过渡，安排好层次段落，最后根据要点扩展成文。要灵活运用各种句式、分词短语、介词短语等，注意使用高级框架结构的句子，用好连接词。
【详解】本文要点完整，文章层次分明。本文中的高级词汇比较多，如share sth. with,  so…that…, make great progres s, a good command of, plays a vital role in, As for , form a habit of , take advantage of，be available to , focus on，和各种连词如，meanwhile，besides，等，使文章层次分明，思路清晰，从而增加文章的可读性。本文句式比较灵活，以简单句为主，又有复杂句，同时运用了一些结构相对复杂的从句，如复杂句（Since I know time is limited in senior three，I become so prepared with the heavier pressure that I have made great progress after a full devotion to my study．）和定语从句，in order to ensure enough energy and efficiency during the day，I made a thorough plan and follow it strictly every day，which led to a much regulated life及祈使句（focus on mistakes，and consult your teachers in time）。文中还运用了非谓语中的动词ing形式作主语（Making more use of the knowledge makes you a better informed person）这些句式的运用让文章的结构错落有致。

参考答案：
76.exciting→excited,自己感到兴奋。
77.Although→Because或Since或As,根据逻辑关系判断，不能用表示"虽然"的although.
78.第二个me→ myself, introduce oneself to sb.将自己介绍给某人。
79.去掉with, play computer games表示"玩电脑游戏"，play为及物动词。
80.Australia→Australian,此处该用形容词，而不用名词Australia.
81.第一个big前加a, 即a big country.
82.library→libraries,根据上文的many修饰判断。
83.which→where,此处该是where引导的状语从句。
84.spend→spent,强调曾经一起度过的日子，表示"过去"。
85. √
三、 阅读理解
21. Years ago a farmer owned land along the Atlantic. He constantly advertised for hired hands. Most people were not willing to work on farms along the Atlantic because they worried about the terrible storms that destroy buildings and crops. The farmer received a steady stream of refusals at the interview for a farmhand.
Finally, a short, thin man approached the farmer. "Are you a good farmhand?" the farmer asked him.
“Well, I can sleep when the wind blows,” answered the little man.
Although puzzled by this answer, the farmer, desperate for help, hired him. The little man worked well around the farm, busy from dawn to dusk, and the farmer felt satisfied with the man’s work.
Then one night the wind howled loudly from offshore. Jumping out of bed, the farmer grabbed a lantern and rushed next door to the hired hand's sleeping quarters. He shook the little man and yelled, “Get up! A storm is coming! Tie things down before they blow away!”
The little man rolled over in bed and said firmly, “No sir. I told you I could sleep when the wind blows.”
Enraged(激怒) by the response, the farmer was tempted to fire him on the spot. Instead, he hurried outside to prepare for the storm. To his amazement, he discovered that all of the haystacks had been covered. The cows were in the barn, the chickens were in the coops, and the doors were barred. The shutters were tightly secured. Everything was tied down. Nothing could be blown away.
The farmer then understood what his hired hand meant, so he also returned to his bed to sleep while the wind blew.

  71. Why did the farmer constantly advertised for hired hands?
A. Because he needed hired hands all the year round.
B. Because there was too much work to do on the farm.
C. Because he could hardly hire a farmhand.
D. Because he offered poor conditions for the hired hands.
72. What does the man mean by saying “I can sleep when the wind blows?”
A. He needed much sleep after working hard on the farm.
B. He was very brave and not afraid of wind.
C. He enjoyed sleeping when the wind blew.
D. He would get everything done before the wind blew.
73. Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. The farmer hired the little man because he was not afraid of storms.
B. The farmer knew the little man was a heavy sleeper under any condition.
C. The little man was hard – working and devoted to his work.
D. The little man was fired shortly after he tied everything down.
74. What do you think of the little man ? He is ________.
A. lazy           B. helpful           C. coward(胆小的人)         D. brave
75. The farmer felt amazed because _________.
A. the little man was sleeping            B. everything was in safety
C. the wind was too strong D. he could not open the doors

Hang-gliding (悬挂式滑翔) in Rio De Janeiro
