【題目】 A city without cars would be very strange, right? But Venice is such a city.

Venice is in the northeast of Italy. It wasn’t built on land, like Beijing or Shanghai, but on more than 110 islands. Seawater is everywhere around the city.

Even so, travel isn't that difficult. The waterways have always been the best way to get around. There are 117 waterways and more than 400 bridges that can lead you where you want to go, people in Venice move from place to place by boat. They like to enjoy the scenery(風光)and cool summer nights while taking boat trips. They can talk to other people as they go along.

Venice grew out of small islands in saltwater lakes when some Italians escaped from a war more than 1, 500 years ago, and built homes there.

Weather makes the city special, but it is also a big problem. Sometimes tourists will have such strange experiences. One moment they walk across the Rialto Bridge, and there's nothing special. But when they come back to the bridge an hour later, it’s underwater and everyone is wearing rain shoes.

Once, people used too much underground water. This made the city get lower, little by little. Now the city has gone down by 23 centimeters. Another problem is the rising seawater. The temperature has risen over the years This has made arctic(北冰洋的) ice melt(融化).

Every year, high waters hit the city in autumn and winter When a lot of water comes, more than half of the city is underwater.

Scientists are trying different ways to stop the city from getting even lower. The Italian government has asked some of Italy's biggest companies to build the MOST project, which was planned to be built under the seawater to op the rising water. Anyway, this project is helping solve the problem.

1Where is Venice?

A.In Italy.B.In Canada.C.In England.D.In America.

2The best way to travel in Venice is by water, because________

A.117 waterways can make your trip easy

B.you can talk to other people while you go along

A.the waterways and bridge

【題目】 Can you imagine that several hundred years ago, tomatoes were seen as toxic food in Europe?

What made Europeans believe this was John Gerard’s publication of Herbal in 1597. Gerard wrote: “The leaves and stalks of the tomato plant are toxic.” Undoubtedly, Gerard’s opinion was based on a misunderstanding of tomatoes. But his opinion was widely spread in Britain and North America for over two hundred years.

In the late 1700s, a lot of Europeans held more fears for tomatoes. A nick name for the fruit was “poison apple” because it was believed that aristocrats(貴族) got sick and died after eating them. But the actual reason was the pewter plates they used. Since tomatoes are high in acidity, when placed on the plates, the lead() in the plates would dissolve. This caused many deaths. This is unluckily, no one knew this at that time. So the innocent tomatoes were picked as the killer.

Today, more than one and a half billion tons of tomatoes are produced every year around the world. Tomatoes are cooked in various ways. This healthy and tasty food finally wins its innocence(清白) back.

1What does the underlined word “toxic” in paragraph 1 mean?

A.deliciousB.nutritious(營養(yǎng))C.poisonousD.safe

2What do we know about the book Herbal?

A.It was written by an American writer.B.It was published about 400 years ago.

C.Tomatoes were described as good food.D.Chinese herbal medicine was included.

3What’s the passage mainly about?

A.Europeans’ fears for tomatoesB.History of tomato planting

C.Why do people eat so many tomatoesD.How did the tomato prove its value
