In order to answer this question, we m

12、ust first examine whether people really want to preserve the historic feel of an area. Not all historical buildings are attractive. However, there may be other reasonsfor example, economic reasonswhy they should be preserved. So, let us assume that historical buildings are both attractive and import

13、ant to the majority of people. What should we do then if a new building is needed?In my view, new architectural styles can exist perfectly well alongside an older style. Indeed, there are many examples in my own hometown of Tours where modern designs have been placed very successfully next to old bu

14、ildings. As long as the building in question is pleasing and does not dominate(影响) its surroundings too much, it often improves the attractiveness of the area.It is true that there are examples of new buildings which have spoilt(破坏) the area they are in, but the same can be said of some old building

15、s too. Yet people still speak against new buildings in historic areas. I think this is simply because people are naturally conservative and do not like change.Although we have to respect peoples feelings as fellow users of the buildings, I believe that it is the duty of the architect and planner to

16、move things forward. If we always reproduced what was there before, we would all still be living in caves. Thus, I would argue against copying previous architectural styles and choose something fresh and different, even though that might be the more risky choice.1、What does the author say about hist

17、orical buildings in the first paragraph?ASome of them are not attractive.BMost of them are too expensive to preserve.CThey are more pleasing than modern buildings.DThey have nothing to do with the historic feel of an area.2、Which of the following is TRUE according to the author?AWe should reproduce

18、the same old buildings.BBuildings should not dominate their surroundings.CSome old buildings have spoilt the area they are in.DNo one understands why people speak against new buildings.3、By “move things forward” in the last paragraph, the author probably means “_”.Adestroy old buildings Bput things

19、in a different placeCchoose new architectural style Drespect peoples feelings for historical buildings4、What is the main purpose of the passage?ATo explain why people dislike change.BTo argue that modern buildings can be built in historic areas.CTo warn that we could end up living in caves.DTo admit

20、 how new buildings have ruined their surroundings.22（8分） You may have experienced the annoyance of being fined because of parking illegally or finding your car towed away(拖走)after leaving it parked somewhere for a couple of minutes. But now a high-tech car sticker thats designed to be stuck to a car

21、s windscreen could help motorists avoid such a situation.The Tow Stop sticker sends a text message to a driver when touched by a traffic policeman, to allow motorists to send a reply and give them time to move their cars immediately. Frankfurt-based IT consultant, Daniel Kalliontzis, came up with th

22、e idea and is raising money to put his 43 sticker into production.Car owners can put the sticker inside their cars windscreen, having set it up with key information, such as their phone number. The slim design will include a sensor(传感器)that, when touched by a traffic policeman, will send a text mess

23、age warning a driver of a possible fine. The driver could then type a reply for the policeman using a smart phone, which will appear on the stickers screen.The smart sticker system will rely on the good will of traffic policemen and in a way, a German law. The law states: an officer has to choose th

24、e most efficient and inexpensive way for the car owner to remove the vehicle. It could be cheaper for the government to call the driver than to tow his car.Mail Online asked the Department of Transport whether the sticker could be used in the UK in a similar way. A spokesman said, “In England there

25、is no legal duty to warn the motorist before issuing the ticket. However, a policeman does have the discretion not to issue a ticket if he doesnt think the situation is that bad or he just wants to issue a warning.”So far, Mr. Kalliontzis has raised just over 2, 362 of his 39, 381 goal. If he manage

26、s to raise the money, the stickers will be shipped in June 2015. But it appears that car owners using the smart system could get some unnecessary warning messages, because anyone could touch the smart sticker.1、The author wrote the third paragraph to _.Aexplain how a smart car sticker worksBadvise d

27、rivers to buy a car stickerCshow the importance of a sensorDtell drivers how to park a car2、We may infer from the text that in Britain _.Acar owners dont have to worry about a parking ticketBsmart car stickers wouldnt work as well as in GermanyCtraffic policemen prefer to call a driver rather than t

28、ow his carDthe Department of Transport thinks highly of smart car stickers3、The underlined word “discretion” in Paragraph 5 can best be replaced by “_”.AtroubleBpressureCfreedomDopportunity4、What would be the best title for the text?ADaniel Kalliontzis-a great inventor.BEnvironment-friendly car stic

32、d that the Oklahoma lightning bolt shot from Tulsa, Okla. westward, nearly to the Texas border.

Thats why we have to be careful of where the lightning is coming to groun

33、d, even though the storm is past.Of course not all storms have extreme lightning like that observed in Oklahoman and French storms. The Oklahoma bolt came in the midst of a particularly bad patch of weather early on June 20, 2007.“Most lightning will strike within the 30-30 rule,” said Dr. Cerveny.

34、“The 30-30 rule is one that we still want to stress and make sure people are aware of. but it does confirm that lightning can hit far from where the storm actually is.”The “30-30” rule stipulates (规定) that if thunder follows lightning within 30 seconds, people should go inside for 30 minutes. If it

35、lasts longer, its safe to stay outside.Studying lightning is important because it can be fatal when it strikes. This year, 35 deaths have been blamed on lightning striker, according to data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Thats the highest death toll related to lightning st

36、rikes in any single year since 2007, reports The Weather Channel.Though thunder is just the sound of lightening, the rumble(隆隆声) arrives after the light flash during a storm, because light travels much faster than sound.

However, the holiday has always been controversial. M

41、any people believe that Christopher Columbus should not be given credit for “discovering” the continent, since native Americans had already been living there for generations.Besides, the explorers mission was not a scientific “voyage of discovery”, but one intended to conquer the new land. Critics m

42、aintain that the Spanish army Columbus brought on his second voyage, caused the deaths of hundreds of thousands of indigenous(土著的) people. Those that survived the massacre became slaves, working in mines. Many, therefore, believe that the explorers arrival should not be celebrated.In 1977, a delegat

43、ion of Native nations at the International Conference on Discrimination Against Indigenous Populations in the Americas, proposed renaming the holiday to “Indigenous Peoples Day”. The proposal passed with a majority.However, convincing the rest of the country to do the same was not that easy. It took

44、 15 years before the city of Berkeley in California adopted the name in 1992 and then 22 more years before Minneapolis, MN and Seattle, WA did the same in 2014. The following year, eight more cities including Albuquerque, NM and Portland, OR, began celebrating the second Monday of October as “Indige

45、nous Peoples Day”. The movement really started to gain momentum in 2016 when 19 cities, including Boulder, CO and Phoenix, AZ, as well as the states of Minnesota and Vermont, all decided to rename the day to honor Native Americans. In 2017, 21 more cities, including Austin, TX and Los Angeles, CA ha

46、ve made the shift.With the increasingly larger number of cities moving away from Columbus Day each year, it will be interesting to see if “Indigenous Peoples Day” gets federal recognition. Meanwhile, it will continue to be the focal point of debates throughout the Americas.1、Which of the following i
