A city without cars would be very strange,right?But Venice(威尼斯)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 guide you where you want to go.
People in Venice move from place to place by boat.They like to enjoy the scenery 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.
Water 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 the ice of Arctic Ocean(北冰洋)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.
29.According to the article,which picture shows the right position(位置)of Venice?

30.Which is the most impossible way for people in Venice to get around in the passage?
A.On foot. B.By boat.
C.By car. D.By bike.
31.Why is Venice still getting lower and lower?
A.Because too many people live there.
B.Because people used too much underground water.
C.Because lots of bridges have been built.
D.Because the underground water is rising.
32.What seasons are dangerous for Venice because of high waters?
A.Summer and autumn. B.Autumn and winter.
C.Summer and winter. D.Spring and winter.
33.The article is mainly about .
A.the position of Venice
B.the history of Venice
C.the problem of Venice
D.the scenery of Venice
答案
29.B 由文章的第二段第一句话可知答案应是B。
30.C 由文章开头可知,在威尼斯乘坐汽车是最不可能的。故选C。

32.B 由第九段内容可知答案选B。
33.C 本文主要讲的是威尼斯的问题。故选C。
C
Some people have a very poor sense of direction.Unluckily,I am one of them.I have visited a place many times but I may still get lost there the next time.
When I was a little girl,I never dared ask strangers the way.So I used to walk round in circles and hope that by chance I would get to the place I was going to.
Now,I am no longer too shy to ask people for directions,but I often receive helpless or even wrong infor-mation.So I try to avoid giving people wrong directions.If anyone asks me the way somewhere,I always say,“Sorry,I am a stranger here.”
Once on my way to work I was stopped by a man.He asked me if I could tell him the way to the Friendship Building.I gave him my usual reply.But just as I walked on only a few steps,I realized that he had asked the way to my office building.However,I had no time to turn back and look for him.I was rushing to meet with someone at my office and I didn't want to keep him waiting.
When I just got to my office,the secretary showed in the man who had asked me for directions.Imagine how embarrassed I was and how surprised he was when we saw each other at first sight!
34.The writer always refuses to give people directions because .
A.she's a stranger to the city
B.she doesn't know the people
C.she has no time to help others
D.she's afraid of giving wrong directions
35.A man stopped the writer on the way to .

A.sell her something B.ask for the time
C.make friends with her D.ask for the direction
36.The Friendship Building is the place where the writer .
A.lives B.studies
C.works D.teaches
37.The word “embarrassed” in the last paragraph means“ ”.
A.尴尬的 B.困惑的
C.激动的 D.拮据的
38.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A.The writer is too shy to give others directions.
B.The writer has a very poor sense of direction.
C.The writer never got lost when she was young.
D.The man was quite nervous when he saw the writer.
答案
34.D 从第三段中“avoid giving people wrong directions”可知作者之所以拒绝给别人指路是怕给别人指错路。
35.D 从第四段中“He asked me if I could tell him the way...”可知这个人拦下作者是想问路。
36.C 根据第四段中“I realized that he had asked the way to my office building”可知,Friendship Building是作者工作的地方。
37.A 由上文内容可知,那个人向作者打听的地方正好是作者工作的地方,但作者没有指路。当秘书将那个人领进办公室时,可以想象出两人见面时,作者是多么尴尬,那个人是多么惊讶。
38.B 由第一段前两句可知作者是一个方向感不好的人。
D
Do you enjoy visiting a museum?Did you ever make a plan before a visit?Every museum must have something that attracts you.And there are many possible ways to enjoy yourself in a museum.
If you follow these steps below,you'll know what is worth seeing and doing,so that you can make the most of your time at the museum.
Decide what museum you will visit.There are so many different kinds of museums and you first need to find one that you like.It's easy for you to choose one and start an enjoyable visit!

Learn at least one thing on your visit.It is always good to take away something new from your visit.
