2. The underlined word "flick" in paragraph 1 means ______.
A. switch on
B. switch off
C. move quickly
D. hit quickly
答案解析:答案为B。本题为词义猜测题。结合该词出现的上下文 “…when an estimated 2. 2 million people flicked the switch --- leaving the Sydney Opera House bathed in moonlight and the Harbor Bridge blacked out.” 可知,破折号后面的内容是对前面的“flicked the switch”进行解释,让悉尼歌剧院沐浴在月光中,悉尼大桥一片漆黑,可以推断flicked the switch就是关灯。flick 即意为switch off “关掉”。switch on 意为“打开”,move quickly 意为“迅速移动”,hit quickly意为“迅速打击”,均不符合该词意思。故答案为B。
3. Which city doesn’t join the black-out organization?
A. Bangkok.
B. Manchester.
C. Montreal.
D. Brisbane.
答案解析:答案为B。本题为细节题。由第三段 “…Thailand's capital Bangkok; Ottawa, Vancouver and Montreal in Canada and Dublin in Ireland. They joined Australian cities Sydney, Perth, Melbourne, Canberra, Brisbane, …”可知,
Manchester没有加入该组织。故答案为B。
