专题限时训练(十八)A
【要点综述】 文章主要讲述了太平洋岛国瑙鲁如何从一个环境优美的天堂岛变成一个生态失衡、满目疮痍的小岛。 由文章第一段的“Now it is an ecological disaster area.Nauru's heartbreaking story could have one good consequence—other countries might learn from its mistakes.”可以看出,作者的目的是给当前很多只注重发展经济而忽略环境保护的国家一个警告。故选B项。 从第一段提到的“太平洋上的国家瑙鲁岛曾经是一个美丽的地方”看出,瑙鲁岛很吸引人;由第二段第一句以及第三段第一句可知,上千年来,瑙鲁岛的人们生活在偏远的小岛上,过着平静的生活。故选C项。 最后一段的“Soon people realized that they had a terrible problem-their phosphate was running out.Ninety per cent of their island was destroyed and they had nothing.”即“磷酸盐逐渐减少,开采殆尽”。由此可以看出,“磷酸盐的过量开采”导致了瑙鲁岛的生态灾难。故选B项。 由最后一段的“Unfortunately, the leaders invested the money unwisely and lost millions of dollars.In addition, they used millions more dollars for personal expenses.”看出,是领导人不正确地使用资金导致了财政问题。故选A项。 文章最后告诉我们:Experts say that it would take approximately $433,600,000 and more than 20 years to repair the island.也就是说,瑙鲁岛上的生态损失弥补起来需要大量的资金和时间,即选项所说的“修复起来很难”。故选A项。【要点综述】 本文主要讲述了比萨斜塔的倾斜历史及政府为此做出的努力。 文章第一段就提到“…has proved to be a great success.”,并且下文也是围绕拯救比萨斜塔进行阐述的。 第三段第一句提到比萨斜塔自1173年建立(至今已有800多年的历史)时就开始倾斜。D 文章最后一段提到“The Italian government stepped in after a tower collapsed in Pavia in 1989…”,说明正是另一个地方的塔的倒塌才使政府意识到拯救比萨斜塔的迫切性,故答案为D。 文章第六段提到把lead weights移走后,导致塔lead weights所起的作用。 从第一段第一句“…no longer leans quite so much…”可知C项与文章内容不符。从第一段最后一句“塔被扶正18英寸后,恢复到了它1838年时的位置”,即172年前的样子,可推知A项符合文章内容;从第三段最后一句可知B项符合文章内容;从第四段第二句可知D项符合文章内容。【要点综述】 本文为说明文,主要介绍威尼斯引以为豪的古建筑正承受着来自人类与大自然的双重威胁。 推理判断题。根据第一段“…but in Venice very nearly everything is remarkable, from the magnificent Piazza San Marco (St. Mark's Square ) and the palaces that line the Grand Canal to the centuriesold homes of simple fishermen.”可判断威尼斯以它杰出的古建筑而闻名,故选D。A 细节理解题。根据第一段“It would be easy to say that the city itself is an enormous museum if it were not for the fact it is so obviously alive.”可推断作者认为威尼斯是巨大的博物馆,故选A。 细节理解题。根据第三段“the wash produced by the constantly increasing number of motor boats that speed up and down the canals.”可判断选A。 细节理解题。根据第四段“A further threat to Venice comes from the Venetians themselves…”可知人为因素比自然因素对威尼斯造成的损坏更大,故选D。 推理判断题。根据最后一段“How tragic now that she is faced with the double threat of man and nature. Venice indeed will be lucky to survive.”可知威尼斯面临着来自人类和自然的双重威胁,要想幸存下去将也是一件碰运气的事,即可推断作者对威尼斯的未来持怀疑态度,故选B。
