UNIT10CONNECTIONSⅠ.【語篇導讀】本文是一篇議論文。文章主要講的是我們在保護文化遺產(chǎn)時要如何做出正確的選擇。1.D細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段的“However,theyarebeingendangeredatanalarmingratebyrisingseas(Venice),pollution(theTajMahal)andovertourism(AngkorWat).”可知,正遭受游客過多的困擾的是吳哥窟。2.A詞義猜測題。根據(jù)第三段的“Humankindhasansweredthesedifficultquestionsdifferentlyindifferentplaces.”可知,第二段的“suchthornyquestionsas”后所列舉的問題是難題,因此畫線詞thorny的意思是“困難的”,和tough意思相近。3.C細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段的“LiketheFrauenkirche,NotreDame,alandmarkinParis,whichwasdestroyedbyfirein2019,isbeingrebuiltascloseaspossibletohowitwasbefore,includingusingtheoriginalandpoisonousmetalleadfortheroof.Thatchoicewascontroversial”可知,作者不喜歡重建巴黎圣母院的材料的選擇。4.D推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段的“Whatwewilldoistocontinuetotakecareofimportantculturalheritagesites,asamatterofsignificancetohumanity’spast,presentandfuture.”可推斷出,作者在文中似乎要傳達的信息是文化遺跡是人類之間的重要紐帶?！菊Z篇導讀】本文是一篇新聞報道。中國西南部著名的三星堆遺址的發(fā)現(xiàn)表明,該地區(qū)的古蜀國文明與瑪雅文明有相似之處。文章介紹了蜀國和瑪雅文明的相似之處,以及保護這兩個遺址的共同挑戰(zhàn)和交流的重要性。5.C細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段可知,蜀國文明和瑪雅文明的相似之處是文化符號。6.A細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段可知,保護這兩個遺址的共同挑戰(zhàn)是潮濕的天氣。7.C推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段可知,桑托斯強調(diào)文化知識交流的重要性。故選C項。8.B推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段以及文章的大意可知,文章可能來自報紙。Ⅱ.【語篇導讀】本文是一篇記敘文。文章講述了作者三歲的女兒Becky(貝基)救了一只受傷的狼的故事。1.C由下文的“‘Mama!’shecried.‘Cometoseemynewdoggy!’”可知,小女孩應該是“興奮地”沖進屋里喊作者去看看她的新狗。故選C項。2.A由上文的“Ifollowedheroutintothebushes”和下文的“sittingonherheelsandheldinherlapwastheunmistakableheadofawolf”可知,作者跟著小女孩走進灌木叢,“分開”擋住視線的枝條,才看見女兒所說的狗實際上是一只狼。故選A項。3.D由下文的“Thereshewas,sittingonherheelsandheldinherlapwastheunmistakableheadofawolf!”可知,作者看到女兒摟在腿上的是一只狼,突然的“恐懼”使作者僵住了。故選D項。4.B由上文的“Thereshewas,sittingonherheelsandheldinherlapwastheunmistakableheadofawolf!”和下文的“mythroatstilltightened.”可知,作者看到女兒摟在腿上的是一只狼,她嚇呆了,嘴巴發(fā)干。故選B項。5.B由上文的“Isteppedcloser.”和下文的“bareditsteeth”“Don’tbeafraid.”“hislegwaswo
