2025年新高考II卷(英国的四个集镇)
English Market Towns to Visit in the UK
English market towns come in many shapes and sizes. Each has a personality shaped by the goods and services produced and traded for centuries. But each town has more to do than shop.
Hereford, Herefordshire
Hereford has remained a lively market town since 1189. Skirting the town square, you’ll find lovely shops, eateries, and the Black and White House Museum. The Hereford Cathedral is the most impressive building in town. It’s also home to an ancient library. One of the four original copies of the Magna Carta is displayed there.
Ludlow, Shropshire
Ludlow is known as the Foodie Center of England. Butcher shops, greengrocers, bakeries, and cheese shops line the town square. Bordering the square, the Ludlow Castle is a “must explore” medieval stronghold. The three-day Ludlow Food Festival is held each September.
Shrewsbury, Shropshire
Getting to Shrewsbury Town Center from London is challenging but worth the anxiety. The River Severn has a significant turn through town, almost making an island of Shrewsbury Town Center. The shape creates a perfect market where goods could be shipped and received using the river as a highway. Flowers are everywhere—hanging baskets, window boxes, and planters—just what you imagine in an attractive English market town.
Mevagissey, Cornwall
Even if you haven’t been to the small fishing village Mevagissey, you’ve probably seen it in a movie or British TV show. The working harbor(港口) took shape in 1774. Fishermen go out to sea daily and sell their fish in harbor-side markets. Don’t leave the harbor without a traditional Cornish pie. It’s delicious.

六、语法知识复习
1. 过去分词作定语
分词作定语，其逻辑主语是被修饰的名词。过去分词作定语，和名词之间是动宾关系，表示“被动完成”。不及物动词，如：retire, boil, fall 等，作定语，不表被动，仅表完成。单个分词，放在所修饰词之前，分词短语，放在所修饰词之后。
例如：polluted water（被污染的水），
spoken English（口语）,
English spoken in China（在中国说的英语）,
boiled water(开水),
retired teacher(退休的老师)，
fallen leaves (落叶)
2.现在分词作状语
分词作状语，其逻辑主语是句子主语。现在分词作状语，和主语之间是主动关系。这时，一定要关注：做状语的动词是及物还是不及物。记住：及物动词，有宾则主，无宾责被；不及物动词，无被动。
例如：① She is sitting there, listening to light music.
② The boys were walking along the street, laughing and jumping.
③The teacher came into the classroom, followed by the students.
④The teacher came into the classroom, following the students.
3.Where引导的定语从句
在复合句中，如果从句作定语，修饰名词，我们就叫定语从句。定语从句的关系词，在从句中，充当一定的成分。如果在从句中做地点状语, 就用where。有些抽象名词，如：case, situation, point, stage, atmosphere 等词后，常常接where引导的定语从句。
例如：
⑤ They're all situations where we could use a little extra patience.
⑥He tries to create an atmosphere where workers can communicate effectively.
⑦The conflict had developed into a stage where the two countries were gathering big troops on the border.
⑧ It was in the park where I went for a walk yesterday that I discovered the wallet. （注意这个句子的结构）
写作句子积累：(背诵)
I dream of travelling to a place surrounded with trees and flowers, where I can relax myself.
我梦想去一个绿树繁花环绕的地方，在那里可以放松身心。
