  • 第5题:

    根据下面资料,回答
    Today, people all over the world are moving out of small villages in the country to go and live in big, noisy cities. They are moving from the peaceful hills, mountains, fields, rivers and streams of the countryside to the busy world of streets, buildings, traffic and crowds. This movement from rural areas to urban areas has been going on for over two hundred years.
    In many countries, the main reason why people come to live in towns and cities is work. After one or two large factories have been built in or near a town, people come to find work, and soon an industrial area begins to grow. There is usually a residential area nearby, where the factory workers can live. The families of these workers need schools, hospitals and shops, so more people come to live in the area to provide these services and a city grows.
    In every major city in the world, there is a business district where the big companies have their main offices. In the United States, this area is usually in the city centre. It is here that you can see the huge skyscraper office blocks. The people who work here often travel a long way to work each day. Many of them live in the suburbs of the city, far away from the industrial area and the city centre. Some suburbs are very pleasant, with nice houses and big gardens. There are usually parks for children to play in and large department stores where you can buy all you need.
    But what is the future of the big cities? Will they continue to get bigger? Perhaps not. Some major cities have actually become smaller in the last ten years, and it is quite possible that one day we will see people moving out of the major cities and back into smaller towns and villages.
    In a residential area, you can see ____________.

    A.rows of houses, schools and shops
    B.many offices and factories
    C.a lot of factories and farms
    D.many houses with offices and factories

    答案:A
    解析:
    细节题。由第二段最后两句“There is usually a residential area nearby,where the factory workers can live.The families of these workers need schools,hospitals and shops,so more people come to live in the area to provide these services and a city grows”可知答案为A。

    In the first part of the 1900s,cities began to_______(53)zoning laws.Zoning laws say what kind of building can be put up in different parts of a city.A factory cannot be put up on land _______(54)for apartments.Apartments,_______(55),cannot be built on land for houses.
    Meanwhile,cities were growing rapidly and changing almost_______(56).They faced many problems.Sometimes the streets in a city caused traffic_______(57).Sometimes there were not enough schools or hospitals for all the people who needed them. As people moved_______(58)to new areas of the city,older parts of town often became run-down.
    At first,citizens_______(59)groups that tried to solve the problems a city faced.Today, most large cities have city planning board_______(60)part of their city government.

    _________(64)
    A:put out
    B:lay out
    C:give out
    D:hard out

    答案:B
    解析:
    come into being为固定搭配,意思是“形成、产生”,例如:When did the Great Britain come into being?英国是何时形成的?原文是“美丽城市”的理念应运而生,因此选C。
    根据上下文判断,随着美丽城市理念的诞生,人们开始意识到城市需要被规划。come有“开始”的意思。所以此处选C最合适,其他各项均不合题意。fail失败, incline 和tend都有“倾向于”的意思。
    根据词语的搭配可以知道,原文应该指的是“城市开始通过城市区划法”,三个选项中只有选项A最合适,pass有“通过”的意思,和law“法律”搭配使用正确。
    空缺处需要填的是过去分词引导的定语从句,省略了which be。这里指的是被划分出来建公寓的地区不能盖工厂,zone更合适,意思是“将……划为特殊区域”。
    however表示一种转折的关系。本句意思为“工厂不能建在用于盖公寓的土地上。然而,公窝也不能盖在建造大宅的土地上”。所以选项D符合。
    根据前半部分即城市在快速地发展,可以判断出城市的变化也是很迅速的,选项D正确,意为“突然,很快”,与前面的rapidly呼应。
    traffic jam意思是“交通堵塞”,较之选项B,选项A更符合常理,即城市里的街道会造成交通堵塞。
    本句提到了老地区变得破败不堪,人们应该是搬出旧城区,搬进新的城市地区,所以选择C,后面接的介词to指“搬到……”。
    只有form最适合和后面的group搭配使用。form意为“组成”,例如:The two parties formed a coalition.两个政党组成了联合政府。本句意思是“市民们组成了试图解决城市面临的问题的团体”。
    三个选项中只有as适合,意思是“作为”。句子意思是“大多数的大城市都有了作为城市政府一部分的城市规划委员会”。
    逻辑题。on the board意思是“委员会里”。前面提到大多数城市都有了 city planning board即“城市规划委员会”,那么委员会里必然有城市规划师,所以A正确。
    degree意思是“学历”,后面常接介词in指在某专业方面的学历,原句中还有信号词college,所以选项degree最合适。level水平,qualification资质,height高度。
    best这里是副词,意思是“最好地,最高标准地”,比较carefully (小心地), suitably(合适地)以及cleverly(聪明地),选项B更为合适。原句意思是“这些城市规划师必须知道如何才能以最好的方式使用城市里的土地”。
    lay out为固定搭配,意思是“规划,设计”。例如:When the local governments lay out the car parks, they must estimate the numbers of cars in these districts.当地方政府规划停车场时,他们必须先估计市区里的汽车数量。原文是“他们规划城市的新地区”。
    这里的意思是“他们……决定如何来提升一个老城区”。section除了有 “部分”的意思外还指“(城市等的)地区,(街区等的)地段”。square意为“广场”,division意为“部分”,centers意为“中心”。

    问答题
    Read the passage carefully and answer Questions 1 to 5. Answer each question in a maximum of 10 words. Remember to write the answers on the Answer Sheet.Preserving the Past  Today, many old buildings are being torn down so new ones can be built. But some older buildings are both beautiful and interesting. They need to be saved.  The city of San Antonio, Texas, was settled by the Spanish in the early 1700s. Later, it was governed by Mexico. If you go to San Antonio, you can see many missions or churches that were built by the Spanish. All were started between 1720 and 1731. You can also find other buildings from early periods in the history of Texas. Some of these buildings are still standing because a group of women worked to save them.  In 1924, the city of San Antonio was going to cement over the San Antonio River and turn it into an underground sewer. A group of women felt that the beauty of San Antonio should be preserved. They formed a club to keep the river from being destroyed.  The women saved the river. Then they worked together to preserve several old buildings that were going to be torn down. In the 1930s, the women saved an old mill and granary. They raised money to buy these buildings by giving tea parties and selling cakes.  More recently, the ladies in San Antonio have worked to save a Spanish convent. They could not afford to buy the whole building, so they paid for only half. Even so, the women are still looking for other old buildings to save. They want people to know about the city’s long and interesting history.  Questions:  1.What is the passage mainly about?  2.What does the word “ones” in Sentence 1 refer to?  3.What can you see if you go to San Antonio?  4.The word in Paragraph 3 that means savedis ________.  5.Why have the women worked to save the river and old buildings?

    正确答案:
    1.Saving interesting old buildings. / Conservation of old towns / cities / San Antonio. 文章主要讲述了圣安东尼奥城市的妇女保护古建筑这一状况。
    2.Buildings. 通读句子可知,old buildings和new ones是并列关系,属于同类事物,因此可知ones指代的是前面的buildings.
    3.Many missions or churches built by the Spanish. 由第二段第三句可得出答案。
    4.Preserved. save和preserve都表示“维护,保存”。
    5.正确hey want people to know about San Antonio’s history. 由文章最后一句可得出答案。

    _________(65)
    A:square
    B: division
    C:centers
    D:section

    答案:D
    解析:
    come into being为固定搭配,意思是“形成、产生”,例如:When did the Great Britain come into being?英国是何时形成的?原文是“美丽城市”的理念应运而生,因此选C。
    根据上下文判断,随着美丽城市理念的诞生,人们开始意识到城市需要被规划。come有“开始”的意思。所以此处选C最合适,其他各项均不合题意。fail失败, incline 和tend都有“倾向于”的意思。
    根据词语的搭配可以知道,原文应该指的是“城市开始通过城市区划法”,三个选项中只有选项A最合适,pass有“通过”的意思,和law“法律”搭配使用正确。
    空缺处需要填的是过去分词引导的定语从句,省略了which be。这里指的是被划分出来建公寓的地区不能盖工厂,zone更合适,意思是“将……划为特殊区域”。
    however表示一种转折的关系。本句意思为“工厂不能建在用于盖公寓的土地上。然而,公窝也不能盖在建造大宅的土地上”。所以选项D符合。
    根据前半部分即城市在快速地发展,可以判断出城市的变化也是很迅速的,选项D正确,意为“突然,很快”,与前面的rapidly呼应。
    traffic jam意思是“交通堵塞”,较之选项B,选项A更符合常理,即城市里的街道会造成交通堵塞。
    本句提到了老地区变得破败不堪,人们应该是搬出旧城区,搬进新的城市地区,所以选择C,后面接的介词to指“搬到……”。
    只有form最适合和后面的group搭配使用。form意为“组成”,例如:The two parties formed a coalition.两个政党组成了联合政府。本句意思是“市民们组成了试图解决城市面临的问题的团体”。
    三个选项中只有as适合,意思是“作为”。句子意思是“大多数的大城市都有了作为城市政府一部分的城市规划委员会”。
    逻辑题。on the board意思是“委员会里”。前面提到大多数城市都有了 city planning board即“城市规划委员会”,那么委员会里必然有城市规划师,所以A正确。
    degree意思是“学历”,后面常接介词in指在某专业方面的学历,原句中还有信号词college,所以选项degree最合适。level水平,qualification资质,height高度。
    best这里是副词,意思是“最好地,最高标准地”,比较carefully (小心地), suitably(合适地)以及cleverly(聪明地),选项B更为合适。原句意思是“这些城市规划师必须知道如何才能以最好的方式使用城市里的土地”。
    lay out为固定搭配,意思是“规划,设计”。例如:When the local governments lay out the car parks, they must estimate the numbers of cars in these districts.当地方政府规划停车场时,他们必须先估计市区里的汽车数量。原文是“他们规划城市的新地区”。
    这里的意思是“他们……决定如何来提升一个老城区”。section除了有 “部分”的意思外还指“(城市等的)地区,(街区等的)地段”。square意为“广场”,division意为“部分”,centers意为“中心”。
