Question

【題目】 If you cannot live without your car, Zurich might be the last city you would like to visit.In Zurich,people are.welcome,but cars are not! Over the past 20 years,this city has used smart ways to make traffic lighter.

One is to keep the same number of parking spaces. For example, if 50 new parking spaces are built in one part of the city,then 50 old spaces in other parts are taken away for other uses.So the total number doesn’t change,Some are unhappy that there are never enough spaces.That is just what the city has in mind:If people find parking more difficult,they will drive less.

Also,the number of cars in the city is counted (t數(shù)).Over 3,500 little computers are put under Zurich roads to check the number of cars that come into the city,If the number is higher than the city can deal with(處理),the traffic lights on the roads that enter the city will be kept red.So drivers who are traveling into Zurich have to slop and wait until there are fewer cars in the city

【4】A

【解析】

短文介紹了蘇黎世的減輕交通壓力的方法：一是保持相同數(shù)量的停車位，此外，蘇黎世的汽車數(shù)量也被計算在內(nèi)，這樣做的目的在于為它的人民騰出更多的空間。

【1】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“One is to keep the same number of parking spaces. For example, if 50 new parking spaces are built in one part of the city,then 50 old spaces in other parts are taken away for other uses. 一是保持相同數(shù)量的停車位。例如，如果在城市的一個地方新建50個停車位，那么其他地方的50個舊車位就會被拿走作其他用途”，可知這里用的是舉例的方法，故選B。

【2】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“One is to keep the same number of parking spaces……If people find parking more difficult, they will drive less.”可知在蘇黎世是很難停車的。又根據(jù)“If the number is higher than the city can deal with(處理),the traffic lights on the roads that enter the city will be kept red.So drivers who are traveling into Zurich have to slop and wait until there are fewer cars in the city如果數(shù)量高于城市可以處理的數(shù)量，進入城市的道路上的紅綠燈將保持紅色。因此，前往蘇黎世的司機不得不慢吞吞地等待，直到城市中的汽車減少。”可知人們不能自由去想去的地方，故選C。

【3】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“If the number is higher than the city can deal with(處理),the traffic lights on the roads that enter the city will be kept red.So drivers who are traveling into Zurich have to slop and wait until there are fewer cars in the city如果數(shù)量高于城市可以處理的數(shù)量，進入城市的道路上的紅綠燈將保持紅色。因此，前往蘇黎世的司機不得不慢吞吞地等待，直到城市中的汽車減少。”得知答案，故選C。

【4】文章結(jié)構(gòu)題。短文第一段首先點明主旨蘇黎世是人們離開車最不想去的地方；然后分兩段介紹了蘇黎世減輕交通的智能方法；最后一段再次點明蘇黎世為什么這么做的原因，所以采用的是總分總的形式，故選A。
