Washington D．C. is No.1

It is best known as a city of monument. In the middle of traffic circles or on street corners, you'll find statues, plaques (匾牌), and simple blocks of marble there. They honor the people who helped shape the US.

And on Oct. 20, Lonely Planet, one of the world's largest travel guides, named Washington D．C. the No.1 city in its list of “Best in Travel 2015”．

“The year 2015 is a fantastic year to visit Washington D．C.，” Tom Hall, editorial director of Lonely Planet, told The Guardian. “The 150th anniversary of Abraham Lincoln's assassination (暗殺) makes this year big for Washington D．C. The famous top hat of America's 16th president and the gun that fired the deadly shot will be on display. Add that to its incredible eats, performing arts and museums. The nation's capital is looking better than ever.”

There are a lot of free museums in the city. When British scientist James Smithson died in 1829, he left a will giving his money to the United States to open a museum at Washington, under the name of the Smithsonian Institution. It has turned out to be a wonderful gift, and the institution now covers 19 museums. And of course, no Washington tour is complete without seeing the White House, the Capitol, and the Supreme Court, which are home to the three pillars (核心) of the

US government. But there is more to explore in the center of the US power. It is a city you can walk across, with wideopen avenues, old neihborhoods, and river views.

And as USA_Today notes, diversity is another reason to “fall in love with the city”. “There is a lot of diversity in Washington D．C., seen in its people, its neighborhoods and its landmarks. From Chinatown to Little Ethiopia, visiting the nation's capital is like seeing the world in one trip，” said the newspaper.

【1】One of the reasons why Washington D．C. is worth a visit in 2015 is that ________.

A．food and performing arts there are much better than anywhere else in the world

B．the top hat of 15th president of America will be on show in the year 2015

C．seeing the museums will make your tour in Washington D．C. complete

D．the diversity of the city offers you an opportunity to see more in one trip

【2】Which of the following details is RIGHT according to the article?

A．The 150th anniversary of Lincoln's assassination makes the tour more worthwhile.

B．The first reason why Washington D．C. is worth a visit is that it is the capital of the country.

C．Lonely Planet decides to make Washington D．C. a mostvisited place in 2015.

D．All the museums in Washington D．C. were named after the Smithsonian Institution.

【3】What is USA Today according to the last paragraph?

A．A wellknown company.

B．A newspaper.

C．An advanced institution.

D．A website.

【答案】

【1】D

【2】A

【3】B

【解析】

試題分析：

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段中的“diversity is another reason to ‘fall in love with the city’”和“From Chinatown to ... in one trip”可知，多元化的華盛頓可以讓你在一次旅行中看到更多，故選D項(xiàng)。

【2】正誤判斷題。根據(jù)第三段中的“The 150th anniversary of Abraham Lincoln's assassination (暗殺) makes this year big for Washington D．C.”可知，林肯被刺殺150周年紀(jì)念將成為華盛頓旅游的一大亮點(diǎn)，故A項(xiàng)正確；B項(xiàng)文章中并未提到華盛頓值得一游的第一個原因是它是美國的首都；C項(xiàng)歪曲原文，《孤獨(dú)星球》的編輯主任介紹了2015年華盛頓的情況，但并不是他們決定讓華盛頓成為2015年最值得旅游的城市；D項(xiàng)說所有的博物館太過絕對。

【3】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段“And as USA_Today notes ... said the newspaper.”可知，USA Today 是一份報紙。

【題目】短文改錯

About a month ago, I was walking alone on the beach in the evening. I have already finished my homework, and I wanted to relax. Suddenly, I saw two children stand on the beach. They seem to have found something made of metal, which was big and reddishbrown. When I took a look at it, I knew immediate that it was an old bomb! I told them to move away the bomb. Fortunately, I had a mobile phone around with me, so I called the police and told them that had been found. About 15 minutes late, the police arrived. I was praised for it but then I went home. The next day, I heard that the police had blown the bomb up. It had been on the sand for over 60 years!
