【題目】

A. designed B. equal C. attracted D. traditional E. metal

The Eiffel Tower is an important landmark of Paris and it is one of the world’s most famous monuments (紀(jì)念建筑). Every year over 7 million visitors are 【1】 by it.

The Eiffel Tower was 【2】 for taking part in the World’s Fair – a celebration held in Paris between May and October, 1889. Before it was built, however, several French artists didn’t think it was proper to build such a strange 【3】 tower in Paris, the capital of France. They believed that it wouldn’t match the 【4】 beauty of Paris’s other famous monuments, such as the Cathedral of Notre Dame and the Arc de Triomphe.

【答案】

【1】C

【2】A

【3】E

【4】D

【解析】

本文對(duì)巴黎標(biāo)志性建筑埃菲爾鐵塔進(jìn)行了介紹。在最開(kāi)始時(shí)，埃菲爾鐵塔的建造就受到了藝術(shù)家的質(zhì)疑。

【1】句意：埃菲爾鐵塔每年吸引超過(guò)700萬(wàn)游客。

根據(jù)句意可知，埃菲爾鐵塔每年吸引超過(guò)700萬(wàn)游客，但句子主語(yǔ)是visitors“游客”，故空格處應(yīng)填入意為“吸引”動(dòng)詞的被動(dòng)態(tài)，C選項(xiàng)attracted符合句意，故應(yīng)選C。

【2】句意：埃菲爾鐵塔設(shè)計(jì)的初衷是參加世界博覽會(huì)。

根據(jù)句意可知，埃菲爾鐵塔設(shè)計(jì)的初衷是參加世界博覽會(huì)，句子主語(yǔ)是The Eiffel Tower“埃菲爾鐵塔”，與謂語(yǔ)design“設(shè)計(jì)”之間是被動(dòng)關(guān)系，A選項(xiàng)designed符合句意，故應(yīng)選A。

【3】句意：然而，在它建好前，有幾位法國(guó)藝術(shù)家認(rèn)為在法國(guó)首都巴黎建造這樣一個(gè)奇怪的金屬塔并不合適。

根據(jù)句意可知，空格處應(yīng)填入一個(gè)形容詞來(lái)修飾tower，根據(jù)常識(shí)埃菲爾鐵塔是鋼結(jié)構(gòu)建筑，E選項(xiàng)metal符合句意，故應(yīng)選E。

【4】句意：他們認(rèn)為埃菲爾鐵塔與巴黎其他名勝古跡的傳統(tǒng)美不相襯。

根據(jù)句意可知，空格處應(yīng)填入一個(gè)形容詞來(lái)修飾beauty，而這個(gè)“美麗”指的是巴黎其他名勝古跡之美，備選單詞還剩下B選項(xiàng)equal和D選項(xiàng)traditional，根據(jù)單詞意思D選項(xiàng)更符合句意，故應(yīng)選D。

I’ve always known that dogs are intelligent animals, but even I was surprised when I heard about a dog called Red, at the Battersea Dogs’ Home in London.

The Home has been caring for lost and unwanted animals for over 140 years. R【1】, the staff there got a shock when they came to work in the morning. They found that some of the dogs had got out of their kennels during the night, opened cupboards and taken out food and toys. And it happened again, and again. The manager, Becky Blackmore, d【2】 that the only way to solve the mystery was to put in cameras to record how the dogs were getting out.

When she and her staff played back the recording, they saw Red, a three-year old lurcher, put his nose through the bars of his kennel and use his teeth to press the button that opened his door. That was c【3】 enough, but Red did more: he unlocked the kennels next to his and let those dogs out too. The group went along the corridor, broke into cupboards and s【4】 dog biscuits and toys to play with.

Becky Blackmore said, ‘It’s surprising, because lurchers aren’t famous for their intelligence. It’s a【5】 that he worked out how to open his own kennel, but also that he then let all his friends out.’ Like most of us, I suppose, Red didn’t like to have a party a【6】!

Red, a lurcher, opening a kennel

The story has a happy ending: after Red was shown on television, several people came forward and offered to give him a new home as a family pet. ‘We are very happy about this,’ said a member of staff at the Dogs’ Home. ‘Lurchers are usually difficult to find homes for. When Red arrived here four months ago, he was very thin and in poor c【7】. Now he can look forward to a comfortable new life with an owner who wants him.
