Dear Simon,

I'm writing this from London. We (76)【1】 here on Tuesday, after staying in Madrid and Paris. London is one of the most interesting cities in Europe, but (77)【2】 it's also one of the most expensive places to stay. It's bigger than Paris and older than Sydney. You know I love history, and there are lots of great (78)【3】 here — in fact, I think the British Museum is probably the best museum in the world. The people in Madrid were (79)【4】 friendly. They were friendlier than London people, but it was more difficult to communicate (交流) (80)【5】 them because I didn't know their language. Paris was fantastic, of course, and I (81)【6】 the most delicious food of my life in some of the Paris restaurants.

My aunt, who's English, says that British food is better than French food, (82)【7】 she's wrong (错误的) about that!

Tonight my aunt and uncle will take (83)【8】 to a show. It's a musical (音乐剧) calledThe Phantom of the Opera. They say it's the most (84)【9】 show in London. Of course I think it would be more exciting to see a pop concert (流行音乐会), but that would be the worst (85)【10】 in the world for my uncle and aunt.

We will fly home to Sydney in five days. See you then!

Yours,

Sheila

【解析】本文介绍了Sheila给西蒙写的一封信。在信中她介绍了自己的马德里和巴黎的情况。

【1】句意：我们在星期二到达这里。根据on Tuesday可知此处用一般过去时，故为arrive。

【2】句意：伦敦是欧洲最有趣的城市之一，但是不幸的是，它也是居住最贵的地方之一。根据it's also one of the most expensive places to stay.可知在这里居住非常贵，因此表示不幸的，修饰整个句子，故用副词，故为unluckily。

【3】句意：你知道我喜欢历史，这里有很多极好的博物馆。有lots of修饰，故用复数名词，故为museums。

【4】句意：在马德里的人们非常友好。修饰形容词friendly，故此处用副词，故为quite。

【5】句意：他们比伦敦的人们更友好，但是和他们交流更困难。communicate with和……交流，故此处为with。

【6】句意：当然巴黎是奇异的，我在巴黎的一些餐馆吃了我一生中最美味的食物。根据宾语the most delicious food可知此处表示吃，根据谓语was可知此处用一般过去时，故为ate。

【7】句意：我的姑姑是一个英国人，她说英国的食物比法国的食物更好，但是她弄错了！此处连接两个句子，结合句意前后表示转折关系，故用连词but。

【8】句意：今晚我的姑妈和叔叔将带我去看一个节目。此处作为动词take的宾语，表示“我”，故用代词me。

【9】句意：他们说它是伦敦最精彩的节目。修饰名词show用形容词，故为wonderful。

【10】句意：我认为看流行音乐会将更有趣，但是那对于我的叔叔和姑姑来说将是世界上最糟糕的事。有形容词worst修饰，故用名词，故为thing。
