    Forests for Cities
    You are standing in a beautiful forest in Japan. The air is clean and smells like plants and flowers.There are 175 different kinds of trees,and 60 kinds of birds live here.______(1) You are downtown in the city of Nara,Japan,in Kasugayama Forest,the oldest urban forest in the world.It was started more than a thousand years ago,and today it's very popular with tourists and artists.
    Cities around the world are working to protect their urban forests. Some urban forests are parks,and some are just streets with a lot of trees.But all urban forests have many good effects on the environment.______(2)They also stop the noise from heavy traffic.They even make the weather better because they make the air 3-5 degrees cooler,and they stop strong winds. Urban forests also have many good effects on people. They make the city more beautiful. In a crowded area,they give people a place to relax and spend time in nature.______(3)
    In some countries,people are starting new urban forests. In England,there are now 1.3 million trees in an urban forest called Thames Chase,east of London. It was started in 1990, and it has grown very fast.Walking and bicycle clubs use the forest,and there are programs for children and artists.______(4)
    Some older cities don't have space for a big urban forest,but planting trees on the streets makes the city better. Scientists found that commuters(通勤人员)feel more relaxed when they can see trees.Trees are even good for business.______(5)In the future,urban forests will become even more important as our cities grow bigger. In the megacities(超大城 市)of tomorrow,people will need more green space to live a comfortable life. Planting trees today will make our lives better in the future.

    ______(4)
    A: People spend more time at shopping centers that have trees.
    B: In hot countries,urban forests are cooi places for walking and other healthy exercises.
    C: But you are not in rural area.
    D: Trees take pollution out of the air.
    E: In 2033,it will have 5 million trees.
    F: It has many kinds of birds in the country.

    答案:E
    解析:
    从后面一句的“downtown”,可以看出,前面应该有和城市相对应的词。C项的rural是农村的意思。把C项填入后语义明确,说明奈良的城市森林覆盖率高,虽然会给你身在乡村的错觉,但这就是人家的城市风貌。所以选C。
    前一句讲到城市森林对环境很有益,后一句“also”明显表明空缺的一句和 also所在句子讲述的都是具体的对环境有益的方面。所以选D。
    在表达方式上,B项承接了前一句“In a crowded area, they give people a place to relax and spend time in nature.”,这两个是并列句。所以选B。
    前面几句有几个关键词:now 1. 3 million trees,has grown very fast。作为本段的最后一句,一般要根据前文展望一下未来趋势。综合各个选项,E项比较合适。
    从前一句Trees are even good for business可以看到,此句要具体说树木会如何促进商业活动。A项正合其意。
