21、ules答案：A第二部分閱讀理解(共兩節(jié),滿分40分)第一節(jié)(共12小題;每小題2.5分,滿分30分)閱讀下面短文,從每題所給的A、B、C和D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中,選出最佳選項(xiàng)。AThe London Eye,which is 443 feet in height above the Thames River,is the worlds biggest spinning structure.It is one hundred feet taller than Big Ben,and weighs 1600 tons.It was built to celebrate the year 2019.Mayb

22、e building such a big spinning structure suggested that people longed for bigger and better things in the future.Why did people think of building the London Eye?In fact it was inspired by great structures of the past like the very first observation wheel built for the Chicago World Expo of 1893.Its

23、twice the size of the wheel,but three times lighter,and much more comfortable.The London Eye is keeping natives and visitors entertained and awed(敬畏).In the London Eye,there are 32 capsules(艙).Each of the capsules can hold up to 25 people.And theyre air conditioned in summer,heated in winter.From th

24、ese capsules the visitors can see the most beautiful views of London.It was difficult to assemble(安裝) and put a wheel of this size.And it required new technology and a lot of imagination.The parts of the London Eye were sent up the Thames River,and the wheel was assembled on temporary(暫時(shí)的) platforms

25、 on the river.Lifting it into an upright position was a major challenge.It took a week to winch(吊) it up to its final position.Now the London Eye is regarded as a monument to new millennium.And many visitors from all over the world come to visit it.21How tall is Big Ben?A.443 feet.B.340-350 feet.C.5

26、50 feet.D.250-260 feet.答案：B解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段第一、二句可知倫敦眼高443英尺,它比大本鐘高了100英尺,由此可計(jì)算出大本鐘高在340350英尺之間。22Why did London build the London Eye?A.To set a new record.B.To celebrate the Queens birthday.C.To celebrate the coming of 2019.D.To beat the first observation wheel in Chicago.答案：C解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段第三句可知建倫敦眼是為

27、了慶祝2019年的到來(lái)。23The underlined word “sent” in Paragraph 4 probably means . A.launchedB.setC.made D.lifted答案：D解析：詞義理解題。根據(jù)本段倒數(shù)第二句可知把它直立起來(lái)是一個(gè)很大的挑戰(zhàn),由此可知倫敦眼是在泰晤士河上被吊起的,故在這里sendup的意思同liftup。24From the text,we can learn that . A.it took great trouble for people to build the London EyeB.the London E

28、ye has been changed into a monumentC.the latest technology was used to assemble the London EyeD.imagination is not very important to build the London Eye答案：A解析：推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段第一句及以下的內(nèi)容可推知建造倫敦眼經(jīng)歷了很多困難。BThe BBC was founded in 1922,including radio and television services.It is based at Broadcasting House i

29、n London.The BBC is controlled by some governors chosen by the government,but these people have freedom and the government cant interfere(干擾).That is,the BBC is supposed not to be the mouthpiece(代言人)of the government.It has to be as fair as possible in giving radio and television time to,for example

30、,political parties and religious(宗教)groups.There is a kind of interesting service in British-rental services.Many people prefer to rent their television sets instead of buying them.The rent for a black and white set is about 80 pence a week(1980).The rent of a color set is more than twice that of a

31、black and white set.If the sets go wrong,people can have them repaired free of charge or replaced immediately.Everyone has to buy a yearly licence,since there is no advertising on BBC radio or television.It is from the sale of licences that the BBC gets most of its money.A licence for a black and wh

32、ite set costs 8 pounds,and for a colour set 18 pounds a year.There are four specialized radio channels,which broadcast different kinds of programmes.Radio 1 is mainly pop music.Radio 2 deals with light music,sports and other programmes.Radio 3 broadcasts serious music,talks on serious subjects,etc.N

33、ews broadcasts are mainly given by Radio 4.There are special programmes for Northern Ireland,Scotland,Wales,and certain parts of England.It also broadcasts programmes about Britainin many different languages as well as in English to all parts of the world.25The officials in charge of the BBC . 

34、A.must say what the government wants to sayB.should give more time to political parties than to religious groupsC.are elected by the citizens from all over the countryD.can decide things without the permission of the government答案：D解析：推理判斷題。由第二段可知,BBC不是政府的喉舌,因此A項(xiàng)和B項(xiàng)都不對(duì);控制BBC的官員是由政府選定的,因而C項(xiàng)也可排除。故選D項(xiàng)。2

35、6If you wants to watch TV at home in Britain,you . A.has to buy a television set of his ownB.must rent a TV setC.has to buy a licence once a yearD.can change his damaged TV set for a new one without payment答案：C解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。第五段有個(gè)關(guān)鍵詞“yearly”,意為“每年,年年”(onceayear),故選C項(xiàng)。A、B和D三項(xiàng)說(shuō)法都過(guò)于絕對(duì),與原文不符。27How does B

36、BC get most of its money?A.It gets money from all kinds of advertisements.B.The BBC depends on the rent of TV sets.C.The BBC gets money mainly by selling licences and TV sets.D.It gets its money mainly by selling licences.答案：D解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第五段第二句可以得出答案。28Which of the following is NOT true?A.The BBC radi

37、o services include 4 radio channels.B.The BBC broadcasts to foreign countries only in English.C.The programmes of the four radio channels are not the same.D.The BBC special programmes are not only for foreign countries but also for different areas in its own country.答案：B解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。文章最后一句話表明,BBC除用英文以外,

38、還用許多種語(yǔ)言向世界廣播。顯然B項(xiàng)是不正確的。CEngland is not a big country:from north to south and from east to west it is only about three hundred miles across.But for a small country it has a surprising range of climate(多樣性的氣候).People who have never visited England or who have visited only one part of it often make the

39、 mistake of thinking that it is a cold and wet country.Except for the summer months of June to September,this is probably true of the north of England and the Midlands.In the south,however,the climate is much more pleasant.One result is that when people retire(退休)from the job in the north,they often

40、 prefer to move down to the south.Perhaps the warmest part of the country is the southwest,which consists of (is made up of)the counties(郡)of Devon and Cornwall,where palm trees,bamboo and many semitropical(亞熱帶)plants grow well.Flowers and vegetables ripen(成熟)as much as a month earlier than those el

41、sewhere.Farmers in the areas gain a higher price for their vegetables and flowers because they are ready earlier.In winter there may be several feet of snow in other parts of England but there will probably be no snow at all in the southwest.This may be one of the reasons why the southwest is one of

42、 Englands most popular holiday areas.29England is a country . A.with a cold and wet climateB.with a pleasant climateC.with a surprising climateD.with climates of various kinds答案：D解析：概括判斷題。根據(jù)文章可知在英格蘭不同的地區(qū)有不同的氣候。30According to the passage,. A.flowers and vegetables from Devon are on the mark

43、et one month earlierB.farmers in the southwest grow as many vegetables and flowers as farmers elsewhereC.people in the southwest have to pay a higher price for vegetables and flowersD.vegetables in Cornwall ripen as much as a month earlier than flowers答案：A解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段第一、二、三句話可得出A項(xiàng)是正確答案。31In the no

44、rth of England and the Midlands,. A.it is cold and wet all the year roundB.the climate is pleasant as a wholeC.it is warm most of the time in a yearD.only the summer is not cold or wet答案：D解析：推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段第三、四句話“PeoplewhohavenevervisitedEnglandorwhohavevisitedonlyonepartofitoftenmakethemistakeofth

45、inkingthatitisacoldandwetcountry.ExceptforthesummermonthsofJunetoSeptember,thisisprobablytrueofthenorthofEnglandandtheMidlands.”可推斷出,英格蘭北部和中部諸郡除六至九月的夏季之外,其他季節(jié)氣候都寒冷潮濕。32In winter,people in Devon and Cornwall,. A.never see any snowB.seldom see snowC.often see snowD.may have several feet of snow答案

46、：B解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段首句可知這兩個(gè)地方位于英格蘭西南部,再由倒數(shù)第二句話“InwintertheremaybeseveralfeetofsnowinotherpartsofEnglandbuttherewillprobablybenosnowatallinthesouthwest.”可知英格蘭西南部冬季很有可能不下雪。第二節(jié)(共5小題;每小題2分,滿分10分)根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。Working together is an art form.Sharing skills,talents and,above all,lea
