3.Should we allow modern buildings to be built next to older buildings in a historic area of a city?In order to answer this question,we must 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 reasons-for example,economic reasons-why they should be preserved.So,let us assume that historical buildings are both attractive and important 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 ben placed very successfully next to old buildings.As long as the building in question is pleasing and does not dominate (影響) 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 (破壞) the area they are in,but the same can be said of some old buildings too.Yet people still speak against new buildings in historic areas.I think this is simply because people are naturally conservative(保守的) and do not like change.
Although we have to respect people's feelings as fellow users of the buildings,I believe that it is the duty of the architect and planner to move things forward.If we always reproduced what was thre 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.
28.What does the author say about historical buildings in th first paragraph?D
A.Most of them are too expensive to preserve.
B.They are more pleasing than modern buildings.
C.They have nothing to do with the historic feel of an area.
D.Some of them are not attractive.
29.Which of the following is TRUE according to the author?A
A.Some old buildings have spoilt the area they are in.
B.We should reproduce the same old buildings.
C.Buildings should not dominate their surroundings.
D.No one understands why people speak against new buildings.
30.By"move things forward"in the last paragraph,the author probably means"C".
A.destroy old buildings           
B.put things in a different place
C.choose new architectural style   
D.respect people's feelings for historical buildings
31.What is the main purpose of the passage?B
A.To explain why people dislike change.
B.To argue that modern buildings can be built in historic areas.
C.To warn that we could end up living in caves.
D.To admit how new buildings have ruined their surroundings.

分析 是否可以在歷史遺跡的地方建設(shè)現(xiàn)代化的建筑?文章對此問題進(jìn)行了討論,作者如果在不破壞原來情況的基礎(chǔ)上我們是可以這樣做的,因?yàn)楹芏喱F(xiàn)代建筑能夠提升城市的品味.

解答 28.D 細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)文章第一段第三句Not all historical buildings are attractive.可知作者認(rèn)為并不是所有的古代建筑都是很吸引人的.故D正確.
29.A 推理判斷題.根據(jù)文章第三段第一句It is true that there are examples of new buildings which have spoilt (破壞) the area they are in,but the same can be said of some old buildings too.可知一些新的建筑會(huì)毀掉他們所在的地區(qū),同樣一些舊建筑也會(huì)毀掉他們所在的地區(qū).故A正確.
30.C 推理判斷題.根據(jù)橫線下一句If we always reproduced what was there before,we would all still be living in caves.如果我們總是重復(fù)建設(shè)以前的建筑風(fēng)格,那么我們就會(huì)讓人生活在洞穴里.可知I believe that it is the duty of the architect and planner to move things forward.中建筑師的責(zé)任就是向前發(fā)展,也就是說要開發(fā)出新的建筑風(fēng)格,不走老路.故C正確.
31.B 推理判斷題.根據(jù)文章第一句Should we allow modern buildings to  be built next to older buildings in a historic area of  a city?可知本文是一個(gè)討論:是否可以在歷史遺跡的地方建設(shè)現(xiàn)代化的建筑.故B項(xiàng)正確.

點(diǎn)評 本文主要考查推理判斷題,要求在理解原文表面文字信息的基礎(chǔ)上,做出一定的推理判斷,從而得到文章的隱含意義和深層意義.推理判斷題所涉及的內(nèi)容可能是文中的某一句話,也可能是某幾句話,所以,推理題的答案只能是根據(jù)原文表面文字信息一步推出的答案:即對原文某一句話或某幾句話所作的同義改寫或綜合.推理判斷題的題干中通常含有infer,suggest,imply,conclude  indicate等標(biāo)志性詞語. 這種題型主要包括細(xì)節(jié)判斷題、態(tài)度觀點(diǎn)推斷題、寫作意圖推斷題、文章出處判斷題和猜測想象推斷題

1.Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.
The festival season is on us again and like every year,we work hard in terms of cleaning,cooking,shopping,and so on for the season.With it,it also brings a lack of sleep.This could be because you are feeling overworked and stressed out.
We should always sleep for at least 6-8hours but a recent survey has shown that more women than men do not get enough sleep and at times some women are functioning on less than five hours of sleep a day.
Often,some choose sleeping tablets to aid their sleep.If you are going through an extreme period of stress or pain,your doctor may subscribe to you some sleeping tablets.However,they should be taken with care,as the body takes just two weeks to adjust to them and they are not as effective.Then there is a problem that they are dependent on sleeping tablets.So you can try the healthier alternatives listed below to deal with the sleeping problem.
Use the bedroom to sleep-not as an extension of your office or entertainment center.Keep the TV switched off.
Relax before going to bed.Drinking some milk and listening to music will be beneficial.
Have a hot shower and keep the room cool.Often a temperature change can cause sleep.
Don't do anything which may raise anxiety levels just before bed.It takes your mind a long time to get calm after anxiety.
Try to get to bed at the same time every day for a week,and wake up at the same time every day for a week.Once you get used to the routine,sleep will become a natural experience.
So these are alternative ways of helping you to relax before bed.Try some or a combination of the above tips to experiment what suits you most.
