Our trip to the Mining Museum

On Tuesday 4th April, we took a bus to travel to the Mining

(矿业) Museum because we had learning about the Gold Rushes.

__56___. We went past some famous places such as Sydney

Harbor and the Open House along the way. We also chatted to our

friends about what we had seen on TV last night.

When we arrived at the Mining Museum, we were taken to a

room where we stored our bags. Our guide, Alison,

then

introduced us to a man named Bruce Binkley who is a miner.

Mr. Binkley talked to us about how people used to look for gold. __57__ . It seemed simple. You get a pan, fill it with dirt and water and then swirl (旋动) it around until the big stones are washed out along with other things. Gold, being heavier, is left at the bottom.

Next, we walked upstairs to look at pictures, information and samples (样品) of gold. We filled in a worksheet about the early discoveries of gold in Australia. ___58__. That part was really exciting because you had to imagine that you were a miner digging for gold.

Lunch was spent in a nearby park. ___59__. They were yummy! We also played hide-and-seek while we were there.

___60___. We boarded the bus and felt very tired. Some children even slept on the bus! It was an enjoyable trip to the Mining Museum.

八．阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。（共10分，每小题2分）

It‘s been a long journey. From DJ to producer to singer, Mark Ronson is now a pop star in his own right.

On Feb 15, his hit song Uptown Funk won Record of the Year, one of the most important prizes, at the 2016 Grammy Awards.

While the world has gone crazy for the song, Ronson, 40, went through six difficult months to produce it. In fact, the UK musician made 17 versions (版本) of Uptown Funk.

In an interview with the Daily Mail, Ronson told the UK newspaper that he worked so hard that his hair started to fall out. At one point, the stress of trying to come up with a suitable guitar part even caused him to faint (晕倒) in a restaurant.

The difficulties didn‘t stop here. Ronson also didn‘t have enough confidence in his singing, as he had been a producer for a long time. ―I work with great singers,‖ he told the New York Post, ―so I‘ve always heard what really good voices sound like.‖

Still, things worked out great in the end.

His family plays an important part in his success. His stepfather guitarist Mick Jones was one of the first members of the rock band Foreigner and sometimes Jones would share ideas with Ronson.

―After school, Jones would play me the most recent mix of songs in the studio and ask what I thought, and I would tell him in my little English schoolboy voice, I remember the bass (贝司) was turned up a little more on the mix from last week‘‖, Ronson told The Guardian, ― I was kind of meant to live in the studio.‖

All these influences led to his success. Ronson taught himself how to DJ when he was 16. ― I practiced by copying my favorite DJs on the radio,‖ he told US radio station NPR. ― I would like listen to them and try and copy in my best way what they were doing.‖

With the goal of being a cool DJ, Ronson dropped out of New York University and played in clubs in downtown New York, where popular artists often visited.

―If you do a good job, there‘s the chance they might remember who you are,‖ he told NPR.

And doing a good job is how Ronson get into show business.

―Never underestimate (低估) Ronson,‖ UK DJ Zane Lowe told Esquire magazine, ― he is fully prepared for opportunities.‖

61. Is Mark Ronson a pop star now?

62. What did he win on Feb 15, 2016?

63. How did he teach himself to be a DJ?

64. Where did he play after dropping out of university?
