上海中心大厦是中国最高的建筑，也是世界第二高的建筑。与毗邻的另外两座摩天大楼--上海环球金融中心和金茂大厦一样，上海中心大厦的最高层也有一个名为“上海之巅”的观景台，该观景台于2017年4月27日正式向公众开放。游客可以进入分别高546米和552米的118层和119层(注:119层在门票上没有注明，但可以从118层通过楼梯进入)。该塔的119层是目前世界上第二高的观景台，只比哈利法塔的二级观景台低3米。今天，121层也开放了，成为世界上最高的观景台。正常的门票价格是180元人民币或大约26美元。这个价格与上海环球金融中心观景台的价格相同，低于世界上许多其他摩天大楼，如帝国大厦、世界贸易中心一号大楼，远低于哈利法塔的“天空之巅”，后者的门票可能高达150美元。PartⅢVideoViewingTask1TranslatethefollowingparagraphintoChinese.Dubaimaybeaninternationalplaygroundforglobalsuperstars,butnoonecaneclipsethebiggeststarofall,theBurjKhalifa.LocatedinthrivingdowntownDubai,theneedle-shapedsuperscrapertakescenterstageinthefamedskylinewithmillionsofvisitorsandVIPsflockingeachyeartoarguablythemostprestigiousaddressintheworld.

Script哈利法塔是目前世界上最高的建筑。今天，我们将详细了解这座建筑的形状以及各楼层情况。一点地理知识：我们看一下我们在哪里。这是非洲、欧洲和亚洲。在亚洲的西南部有一个国家叫阿拉伯联合酋长国。哈利法塔就位于其首都迪拜。它就在繁忙的市中心。有一些道路、高速公路、周围的建筑和散步的地方，还有迪拜喷泉，这里有好看的表演，当然还有迪拜购物中心。该建筑于2010年1月开放，高160层。在这一点之上是塔尖。这座建筑的总高度是828米。我们把它和其他一些高层建筑比较一下。这里是世界第二和第三高的建筑，这里还有一些你可能认识的建筑。这座建筑造型独特。看一下它的底部，你会发现它的底部很宽，整体像一朵花。该建筑采用避风设计，我们当然不希望建筑物的顶部在风中摇摆。当气流向上时，三个支翼中的一个会以旋转的方式收缩，先是这个，然后这个，这就形成了一个直达楼顶的螺旋效应。

该建筑有三个主要入口，分别供居民、酒店和公司使用。让我们来看看每一层的用途。有酒店套房、住宅，人们在这些楼层购买和租赁居住空间；机械室确保建筑物正常工作；空中大厅，你可以直接乘电梯到这些楼层；供公众观赏的天文台；供公司租用的办公空间。122层甚至还有一家餐厅；广播间。最上面是塔尖。一般来说，公众是不允许进入这里的。

你会发现所有的电梯都在大楼的中央。这座建筑将电梯技术推向了极限。电梯不会在每一层都停留。要到达最高的楼层，你需要先乘电梯到其中一个空中大厅，然后再乘另一部电梯走完剩下的路。这是一条很长的路，但如果你感到无聊，这里有电视可供娱乐。其中一些实际上是双层电梯。他们可以一次维修两层楼。让我们看一看酒店的其中一层。你下了电梯，你可以去三个侧翼中的任何一个找到你的房间。房间大小不一，有较小的卧室，也有大而宽敞的酒店套房。如果你需要更宽广的视野，38层和39层有更多这样的房间。作为游客，你可以乘坐电梯到124层或125层。如果你愿意多付一点钱，你可以进入另一部电梯，一直到第148层。我希望你不会恐高。目前，哈利法塔仍然是世界上最高的建筑。但这种情况在未来几年可能会改变。大家都知道人们对“记录”的认识：“记录”就是要被打破的。CCCSectionSpeakingDevelopmentPracticalEnglishIntegratedCourse(I)Unit7AmazingArchitecturePartⅠSituationalConversationsTask1Readthefollowingconversationsaloudinpairs.ThePalaceMuseumJeremy:ThePalaceMuseumissolarge.Tina:Yes,youareright.Itcovers720,000squaremeters.Jeremy:Therearesomanyrooms,too.Tina:Yes.ItissaidthatthePalaceMuseumcontains9,999rooms.Jeremy:9,999rooms?Ihardlybelieveit.Tina:Doyouknowwhyit’scalledForbiddenCityandwhenitwasbuilt?Jeremy:Itwasmodeledafterthe“ForbiddenCity”inNanjing,butonagranderscale.Theconstructionbeganin1406andwascompletedin1420.故宫博物馆杰里米：故宫真是太大了。蒂娜：是的，你说得对。故宫占地面积72万平方米。杰里米：也有很多房间。蒂娜：是的。据说故宫有9999个房间。杰里米：9999间？我简直不敢相信。蒂娜：你知道为什么叫紫禁城吗？它是什么时候建成的？杰里米：它是仿照南京的“紫禁城”建造的，但是规模更大，始建于1406年，1420年完工。PartⅠSituationalConversationsTask1Readthefollowingconversationsaloudinpairs.AnUnusualBuildingTina:IthinknothingcanbeasunusualthantheBeijingNationalStadium.ThisisoneofthelargestsportinggroundsinChina.Jeremy:Whatisitlike?Tina:Actually,itlookslikeabird’snestfromtopanddifferentfromtheotherordinarystadiums.So,itisalsoknownastheBird’sNestforitsweirdsize,shapeanddesign.Jeremy:Soundsgreat.Whowasthedesigner?Tina:ItwasdesignedbyarchitecturefirmHerzog&deMeuronandarchitectLiXinggangofChinaArchitecturalDesignandResearchGroup.不寻常的建筑蒂娜：我认为没有什么比北京国家体育场更不寻常的了。这是中国最大的运动场之一。杰里米：那里怎么样？蒂娜：实际上，它从顶部看起来像一个鸟巢，和其他普通的体育场不同。因此，它也因其奇怪的大小、形状和设计而被称为鸟巢。杰里米：听起来不错。鸟巢的设计师是谁呢？蒂娜：它是由赫尔佐格和德梅隆建筑事务所和中国建筑设计研究院的建筑师李兴钢设计的。PartⅠSituationalConversations

颐和园坐落在北京西北部，是中国最大、保存最完好的皇家花园。它的中文名“颐和园”意为健康和谐的花园。顾名思义，颐和园曾被中国的皇家统治者用作避暑行宫，是郊外的一处乐园，但又近城市。后来发展成颐和园的花园可以追溯到金朝（1115—1234年）。后来，蒙古大汗忽必烈（元朝，1206—1368年），为改善北京的水供应，下令修建运河，将水从西山运输至颐和园。他还扩建了湖泊（今昆明湖）作为水库。颐和园建于1750年，于1764年完工。当时，颐和园并非被称为颐和园，而是清漪园。

1860年，北京遭英法联军侵袭，许多颐和园内的建筑被纵火焚毁。1886年，慈禧太后重修了这个宏伟的花园。颐和园的重建和扩建工程持续了十年。工程完工后，该园林被更名为“颐和园”（和平与谐乐之园）。1911年后，颐和园向公众开放，并于1928年改建为公园。如今，颐和园已成为游客热门且令人放松的目的地。作为清朝最大的皇家花园，它的四季景色美不胜收。秋季，颐和园变得温和而多彩，色调变为黄、橙和红等暖色调。山水自然景观与亭台楼阁、宫殿和桥梁等人工特色相得益彰，形成优美和谐的整体美感。颐和园最吸引人的水上风光位于昆明湖，那里拥有广阔的水域和如画般的景色。1998年，颐和园被列为世界遗产。1.“Asitsnameimplies,theSummerPalacewasusedasasummerresidencebyChina’simperialrulers,apleasuregroundinthecountryside,yetneartothecity.”(Para.1)译文：顾名思义，颐和园曾被中国的皇家统治者用作避暑行宫，是郊外的一处乐园，但又近城市。解释：这个句子使用了同位语“apleasuregroundinthecountryside”来详细解释颐和园的功用。例如：AlexanderGrahamBell,themancreditedwithinventingthefirsttelephone,wasdeclaredoneofthecountry’sgreatestinventorsin1936.语言解析2.“ThegardensthatlaterbecametheSummerPalacedatedbacktotheJinDynasty.”(Para.2)译文：后来发展成颐和园的花园可以追溯到金朝。解释：本句使用关系词that引导的限定性定语从句来解释先行词“thegardens”。当先行词是指人的名词，关系词也可选用who。例如：Theboythat/whoisplayingfootballontheplaygroundismybrother.语言解析3.“AsthelargestroyalgardenoftheQingDynasty,itfeatureswonderfulsceneryinfourseasons.”(Para.4)译文：作为清朝最大的皇家花园，它的四季景色美不胜收。解释：本句中feature作动词使用，意指“以……为特色、主打”。例如：Ourlatestroadbikemodelfeaturescarbonwheels.语言解析4.“ThemostattractingwaterlandscapeintheSummerPalaceliesontheKunmingLake,whereboastsvastwatersandpicturesquelandscape.”(Para.4)译文：颐和园最吸引人的水上风光位于昆明湖，那里拥有广阔的水域和如画般的景色。解释：本句亦为定语从句，使用where引导的非限定性定语从句对KunmingLake进行补充说明与描述。例如：Iwalkthroughthedoorsintothewaitingarea,wherethere’safamiliaratmosphereofboredomandtension.语言解析PartⅠReadingComprehension
