小題4:固定短語 be different from… 與……不一樣,故選A。

小題6:根據(jù)這空后面一句There is one big canal and 177 small canals.有一個大運河177個小運河,所以是許多,而且運河可數(shù),用many修飾。
小題7:People move   7  and down the canals,and表示并列,后面是down,前面是up, up and down 上上下下,故選B。
小題8:運河上的不可能是A in buses公交車,也不可能是B. in cars小汽車,只可能是C. in boats船,故選C。
小題9:購物 go shopping, 固定搭配 go + doing 從事某項活動。
小題10:這空之前But Venice is sinking. It is going down and the water is going up.意思是威尼斯正在下沉,它正在下降,水正在上升。所以2040年威尼斯可能在水下,用介詞under在……之下。
點評:本篇文章介紹了水城“威尼斯”,每年來自世界各地的游客都會來到意大利這座城市旅行。它很漂亮,但是和其他城市不一樣。它沒有馬路街道,但是有許多運河。人們乘坐運河上的船只出去工作,購物,走親訪友。但是這座城市正在下沉,2040年可能會下沉,被水淹沒。

Old Cremona Violins
Most musicians(音樂家) agree that the best violins(小提琴) were first made in Cremona, Italy, about 200 years ago. These violins sound better than any others. They even sound better than violins made today. Violin makers and scientists try to make instruments(樂器) like the Italian violins. But they aren’t the same. Musicians still prefer the old ones.
Some people think it is the age of the violins. But not all old violins sound wonderful. Only the old violins from Cremona are special(特殊的). So age cannot be the answer.
Other people think the secret to those violins is the wood. The wood must be from certain kinds of trees.
But the kind of wood may not be so important. It may be more important to cut the wood in a special way. Wood for a violin must be cut very carefully. It has to be the right size and shape(形狀). The smallest difference will change the sound of the violin. Musicians sometimes think that this was the secret of the Italians. Maybe they understood more than we do about how to cut the wood.
Size and shape may not be the answer, either. Scientists can make new ones that are exactly the same size and shape. But the new violins still do not sound as good as the old ones. Some scientists think the secret may be the varnish. Varnish is what covers the wood of the violin. It makes the wood look shiny. It also helps the sound of the instrument. But no one knows what the Italian violin makers used in their varnish.
小題1:The passage is about          .
A.making violinsB.musical instruments
C.scientific ideasD.the old Italian violins
小題2:Other people think the Italian violin makers          .
A.did not know much about violinsB.were lucky
C.used many kinds of woodD.knew something special
小題3:Violins made today          .
A.have the same size and shape as the old ones
B.sound the same as the old ones
C.a(chǎn)re better than the old ones
D.have the same varnish as the old ones
小題4:Some scientists believe that the secret of the old violins was          .
A.their soundB.their colourC.their varnishD.the music
