【文章大意】本文是一篇资讯报道,报道了伦敦最新的摩天大楼the Shard,以及它的形状和设计理念。同时还讲述了人们对于这栋大楼的不同的看法。很多人都反对这栋大楼,说它并没有向一个好的方向改变。
55. 【答案】C
【试题解析】细节题。根据第二段3,4,5行He wanted the glass surfaces to reflect the sky and the city. The sides of the building aren’t regular. So the building has an unusual shape. It looks like a very thin, sharp piece of broken glass. And that is how the building got the name: the Shard.可知摩天大楼the Shard得到自己的名字是因为它的形状。故C 正确。
56. 【答案】B
【试题解析】推理题。根据第二段后三行Piano says that the spire shape of the Shard is part of a great London tradition. The shape reminds him of the spires of the churches of London or the tall masts (桅杆) of the ships that were once on the river Thames.可知他把这座摩天大楼设计成这个形状是为了让它成为伦敦的传统的一部分,也就是说让它继承伦敦的传统。故B正确。
57. 【答案】B
【试题解析】推理题。根据文章倒数第二段2,3,4行They say that the Shard shows how London is becoming more unequal. Only very rich people can afford to buy the expensive private apartments and stay in the hotel. But the people who live near the Shard are among the poorest in London.可知一些批评家认为这座大楼只是为那些富有的人而设计的。居住在这栋大楼附近的人都没有能力享受它。它是社会不公平的代表。故B正确。
