Vive la Tower!Until New York’s Chrysler Building was completed in 1930,the Eiffe

题文

Vive la Tower!
Until New York’s Chrysler Building was completed in 1930,the Eiffel Tower was the tallest structure in the world.Located by the river Seine,on an avenue named after its designer,this 985-foot (300-meter) tower is the most famous edifice(大建筑物) in the city of Paris.Gustave Eiffel’s idea was certainly chosen from among 700 proposals(提议) to represent the city in the International Exhibition of Paris in 1889.It commemorated(纪念) the 100th anniversary of the French Revolution.

Vive la Tower!Until New York’s Chrysler Building was completed in 1930,the Eiffe

In 1887,three hundred steel workers spent two years constructing the 7 000-ton tower.Yet,it was almost torn down two decades after its completion.Luckily,its antenna(天线),used for telegraphy at the time,saved it.Last July,it looked to observers as though the tower might be destroyed after all,as ominous(不吉利的) black clouds of smoke encircled the structure.Luck was again smiling upon the tower:the fire turned out to be a small one that was quickly put out  by attendants on duty.
To date,more than 200 million people have visited the Eiffel Tower.However,it has not always been a beloved tourist attraction.At first,Parisians despised it.Its architectural style and metallic composition were not considered pleasing.Today,the Eiffel Tower is adorned(装饰) with special lights that sparkle for ten minutes each hour,from sunset until one a.m.If you happen to be passing by,look up at this breathtaking monument for an astonishing sight.The Eiffel Tower,composed of iron and steel,is greater than the sum of its parts.
小题1:If you wanted to see the Eiffel Tower sparkle,when might you stop by?A.1:15 a.m.B.3:30 p.m.C.9:10 p.m.D.0:00 a.m.小题2:When was the Eiffel Tower almost torn down?A.1907.B.1909.C.1889.D.2003.小题3:At first,what did Parisians think about the tower?A.The steel and iron parts were unimpressive.B.The awe-inspiring design was attracting.C.Both A and B are correct.D.Neither A nor B is correct. 题型:未知 难度:其他题型

答案


小题1:D
小题2:B
小题3:A

解析


小题1:文章交代埃菲尔铁塔上装饰用的特别的灯从日落到次日凌晨1点正点每隔一小时闪耀10分钟。
小题2:埃菲尔铁塔于1889年建成,20年后差一点被拆掉。
小题3:根据“At first,Parisians despised it.Its architectural style and metallic composition were not considered pleasing.”可知当时巴黎人对埃菲尔铁塔的印象一般。

考点

据考高分专家说,试题“Vive la Tower!Until .....”主要考查你对 [政治经济类阅读 ]考点的理解。

政治经济类阅读

政治经济类文章的概念:

要做好这类阅读,平时就要注意了解国内外发生的政治经济大事,掌握一定背景知识,对这类文章的叙述特点及内容安排有一定了解,还要扩展这方面的词汇。阅读这类文章,要抓住文章的核心,即文章整体和各段主要在说什么,也要注意段落之间的逻辑关系。

如何备考政治经济类阅读理解题:

【题型说明】政治经济类阅读文章是高考常选材料之一。该类文章时代气息浓郁,语言鲜活,但熟字新义词、超纲词及专业词语多,长句、难句多。政治类文章大多数是同学们感性趣的内容,读起来倒有似曾相识的感觉,经济类文章读起来就像是雾里看花,文章看完,一头雾水。再加之这类文章的命题侧重于词义猜测、推理判断和文章主旨,同学们对这类题材是望而生畏。
【备考策略】建立心理优势。针对不同体裁的文章,我们要采取相应的阅读方法和技巧。政治类文章多采用记叙文形式,我们可采取“顺读法”,以便抓关键语句,领会文章主旨;而经济类文章则多采用说明文形式,我们则可以采取“逆读法”,先读试题,再从文章中查找有用信息。若遇到的确难读的材料。千万不用着急,因为你觉得难,其他人也一定是同感。在高考前,我们就要有这种心理准备,高考试卷肯定有一、两篇难以阅读的材料。不过,我们平时可以有意识地从报刊杂志上找一些较难的阅读材料来阅读,以培养自己迎难而上的心理素质。
【答题方法】
1、寻找主干:
根据英语中五种基本句型结构,把句子中的主语、谓语、宾语、表语等主要成分找出来,其他成分如定语、状语、补语等则易于理解。找到了句子主干,句子的意思至少明白了一半。
2、剔除从句:
在一个长句中可能会出现若干个从句,在理解时,如果把各个从句剔除出来单独理解,然后把大意拼凑起来,整个长句的意思就会明白六、七分。
3、辨别分句:
一个长句如果是由几个并列、转折、递进、对比关系的分句组成,句中往往有表示这些分句关系的连接词,只要能弄清楚分句和分句之间的逻辑关系,再把各层分句的意思加以连贯,整个长句的句意基本上能跃然脑中。
4、寻找关键词:
如果一个句子看完,一点句意的感觉也没有,下下策就是抓住句中的关键词,通过关键词大体弄懂这个长句的意思。
