2．D　[推理判断题。由最后一段第一句“At the equator, where the Earth is widest, fifteen degrees stretch about one thousand six hundred kilometers.”可知如果一只船沿赤道航行了8 000千米的话，应该是1 600千米的五倍，也就是15°×5＝75°。]

　　3．A　[词义猜测题。由画线词所在句“...one degree shrinks from about one hundred and nine kilometers at the equator to nothing at the north and south poles.”一度由赤道的109千米到南北极的0千米，这应该是在缩小，故选A项。]

　　4．B　[主旨大意题。由第一段的内容可知这段主要介绍了赤道和纬线。]

　　A Manhattan Crossing

　　New Yorkers like to say they can walk faster than the crosstown bus.On 34th Street, buses average about four miles an hour.For those in a hurry, pretty much everyone here, it's an icy pace for a crosstown trip.Janette Sadik­Khan, the city's transportation commissioner, is proposing an interesting fix for 34th Street.

　　The city plan would close 34th Street to non­bus traffic in the block between the Empire State Building and Macy's.On the rest of the street, cars would move one way only.It would take getting used to, but for bus passengers, the city says there are more than 40，000 a day on public, tour or commuter(通勤者)buses along 34th Street.The plan should cut the commute by up to 35 percent.

　　People in other vehicles or about 10 percent of the human traffic would have to zig and zag(锯齿形)to get through this section of the city.It is probably fair to say that most are not particularly pleased about the whole concept.
