【題目】閱讀下列短文,根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,從短文后各題所給的A、B、C、D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中,選擇最佳選項(xiàng)。
D
Some people think that they have an answer to the problems of automobile crowding and pollution in large cities. Their answer is the bicycle, or bike.
In a great many cities, hundreds of people ride bicycles to work every day. In New York City, some bike riders have even formed a group called “Bike for a Better City”. They claim that if more people rode bicycles to work there would be fewer automobiles in the downtown section of the city and therefore less dirty air from car engines.
For several years this group has been trying to get city government to help bicycle riders. For example, they want the city to paint special lanes—for bicycles only—on some of the main streets, because when bicycle riders must use the same lanes as cars, there may be accidents. “Bike for a Better City” feels that if there were special lanes, more people would use bikes.
But no bicycle lanes have been painted yet. Not everyone thinks it is a good idea. Taxi drivers don't like the idea—they say it will slow traffic. Some store owners on the main streets don't like the idea—they say that if there is less traffic, they will have less business. And most people live too far from downtown to travel by bike.
The city government has not yet decided what to do. It wants to keep everyone happy. On weekends, Central Park—the largest open place in New York—is closed to cars, and the roads may be used by bicycles only. But “Bike for a Better City” says that this is not enough and keeps fighting to get bicycle lanes downtown. Until that happens, the safest place to bicycle may be in the park.
(1)The underlined word “automobiles” in the second paragraph means ______.
A.cars
B.trains
C.planes
D.ships
(2)Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A.Special lanes are needed on every street.
B.“Bike for a Better City” members ride bicycles to work.
C.The Central Park is closed to cars on weekdays.
D.Accidents won't happen if cars and bikes are on different lanes.
(3)No bicycle lanes have been painted yet because ______.
A.the city government can't help to paint the lanes
B.the main streets are not wide enough
C.the idea isn't accepted by all
D.there's no need for most people to travel by bike
(4)This passage is mainly about ______.
A.city problems and “Bike for a Better City”
B.“Bike for a Better City” and the city government
C.the government's idea on traffic and city pollution
D.a suggestion on the city problems of traffic and pollution

【答案】
(1)A
(2)B
(3)C
(4)D
【解析】短文大意:該文主要是關(guān)于城市交通和環(huán)境污染問題的一個(gè)建議。一些人認(rèn)為騎自行車。上班將會(huì)有更少的汽車在市中心地區(qū),因此來自汽車引擎的污濁空氣將會(huì)更少。
(1)A 詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)therefore less dirty air from car engines.(因此來自汽車引擎的污濁空氣將更少)可推知automobiles指的是cars,所以選A。
(2)B 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中In a great many cities, hundreds of people ride bicycles to work every day. In New York City, some bike riders have even formed a group called “Bike for a Better City”.可知“Bike for a Better City”的成員是騎自行車上班的,所以選B。
(3)C 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段中But no bicycle lanes have been painted yet. Not everyone thinks it is a good idea.可知還沒有畫出自行車道。這是因?yàn)椴皇敲總(gè)人都認(rèn)為這是個(gè)好主意。所以選C。
(4)D 主旨大意題。根據(jù)第一段的描述可知該文主要是關(guān)于城市交通和環(huán)境污染問題的一個(gè)建議,所以選D。

A
Dear Died,
Today I was at the shopping center and I spent a lot of time reading the Father's Day cards. But as I chose add read, and chose add read again, it seemed that not a single card said what I really wanted to you.
You'll soon be 84 years old, Dad,and you and I will have had 56 Father's Days together. I didn't think that you were too old. But the sad thing happened last week. I watched as you turned at the corner in your car. I didn't realize at once that it was you because the man who was driving looked so elderly.
Fifty years ago this spring, we planted carrots together in a garden in Charles City, Iowa. This week, we'll plant carrots together again, perhaps for the last time but I hope not. I don't understand why planting carrots with you is so important to me. Well, I don't quite know how to tell you this, dad … I don't like carrots.... but I like planting them with you.
I guess what am trying to say, Dad, is what every son and daughter wants to say to their dad today. Praising a father on Father's Day is about more than a dad who brings home, money or shares a dinner. It's more about a dad deeply loving children who know everything and won't listen to anyone. It's about sharing. It's about loving someone more than words can say, and I wish that it would never end.
Lover,
Jenny

He began to eat the bull. A thought came into his mind, “if 4 beast comes this way, he will ask for a share. I had better eat 5.” ‘Grub! Grub! Grub!' he chewed, faster and faster.

“Ooh, the bone in my throat hurts me. What 7 I do now?” thought the wolf. Soon he remembered that a crane (鶴) lived on the nearby river bank.

He asked the wolf to look up 9 his mouth open. The crane then put its head into the wolf's mouth and pulled out the bone. “Oh! What a relief!” the wolf said. “Now where is my present?” asked the crane. “What present?” the wolf replied, pretending not remembering its promise. “You said that you would give me a present if I removed the bone from your throat,” said the crane angrily. “Hah!

Nowadays, many people in China and Japan are racing against time. They put a lot of value in “being on time”. However, in some countries of the world, people have different opinions on “being on time”.

Germany

Thanks to its industrial past, in Germany you are expected to arrive at least ten minutes earlier for any planned meeting. In Germany, being on time is risky enough because your hosts will probably already be there waiting, wondering how on earth you could be so stupid. What will you do if anything unexpected happens, like heavy traffic or a sudden rain? So remember to arrive early in Germany.

Saudi Arabia

Some countries care little about time and Saudi Arabia is one of them. It’s because of their long history of desert living where time is not the first thing to think about. It could be that it’s too hot to do anything on time. So don’t expect them to be on time. Moreover, looking at your watch during an event is even considered as bad manners. So don’t get angry with them, either.

Ghana

Most meeting times can be changed, even if an exact time is given. Ghanaians are very easygoing. They think that if everyone is late, then no one is late. After all, what can’t be done today can get done tomorrow. If you find it difficult to deal with, prepare to be unhappy.

Russia

Patience is considered a very important quality in Russian culture but being on time is not. When doing business in Russia, do be on time. Otherwise, it will be considered disrespectful. But Russians won’t hold themselves to the same standard. So, again, patience can be key.

【題目】 Star scientists have taken the first ever picture of a black hole, which is from a far away galaxy (銀河系). It is 40 billion km across-three million times the size of the Earth-and has been described by scientists as "a monster".

The black hole is 500 million trillion km away and was photographed by a network of eight telescopes (望遠(yuǎn)鏡) across the world.

Details have come out today in Astrophysical Journal Letters. Prof Heino Falcke, says "It is one of the heaviest black holes that we think there is. It is a real monster."

The picture shows a quite bright "ring of fire", as Prof Falcke describes it. The bright halo is caused by superheated gas fling into the hole. The light is brighter than all the billions of other stars in the galaxy-which is why it can be seen so far away from Earth.

The dark circle at the centre is the point at which the gas enters the black holes, which is an object that has such a large gravitational (萬有引力的) pull, not even light can escape.

1The black hole is ________ times the size of the Earth.

A.two millionB.three millionC.six million

2In which part of the newspaper can we read this passage?

A.SportsB.LifestyleC.Science

3The underlined word in paragraph four means ________.

A.The black hole is 500 million km away.
