Garden cities would provide a central public open space, radial avenues and connecting industries. They would be surrounded

　　by a much larger area of green belt, also owned by the company, containing not merely

　　farms but also some industrial institutions. As more and more people moved in, the garden city would reach its planned limit—Howard suggested 32,000 people; then, another would be started a short distance away. Thus, over time, there would develop a vast planned house collection, extending almost limit; within it, each garden city would offer a wide range of jobs and services, but each would also be connected to the others by a rapid transportation system, thus giving all the economic and social opportunities of a big city.

　　本文是一篇记叙文，记叙了Ebenezer Howard在偏僻的农村发明了花园城市。在花园城市里，有公共空间、林荫大道、各种工作和服务设施。

　　6．How did Howard get the name for his building plan of garden cities?

　　A．Through his observation of the country life.

　　B．Through the combination of different ideas.

　　C．By taking other people's advice.

　　D．By using the nickname of the reconstructed chicago.

　　答案：D。细节理解题。根据第一段的“In those days，it was nicknamed ‘the Garden City’，almost certainly the source of Howard's name for his later building plan of towns.”可知D项正确。
