When his plane touched down at Montreal's international airport, David Lee collected his luggage and headed for the airport parking garage, where he left his brandnew car three weeks earlier. But the car wasn't there. Lee found a police officer, who gave him the bad news:his Audi A6 most likely had been absorbed into a vast black car market somewhere in Eastern Europe or Africa. Lee, who flies out of Montreal because it is the closest major airport to his home, is not alone. Countless U. S. travelers use Montreal's airport because of its convenience and lower price, which the ads say. Not surprisingly, the ads don't mention that more than 200 cars are stolen every year from the airport's parking lots. Professional thieves search the airport's parking garages for cars that are relatively free of dust and have U. S. license plates—a lack of dust means that a car was parked recently, and Americans often travel for weeks. That gives the bad guys a lot of time to do whatever they want with the car.
What they do is take the stolen cars to Montreal's port,
where they are put inside huge containers to be taken abroad.
In about a week,the cars are on the streets in Russia or countries in Africa or Asia. Police declare that Canada's most powerful cartheft rings are controlled by Russian crime organizations. “When you have so many cars parked at your airport every year,” says Montreal's director of airport protection, “it's
not a major problem.” But the Montreal airport's cartheft problem—police recorded 220 stolen cars last year, is much
worse than other international airports in North America. Last
year ,for example, only 65 cars were stolen at Los Angeles' airport;Roston's Logan airport had only 4 reported thefts. So now David Lee will head to Logan, his next closest major airport. It's a longer drive,but that's OK if it saves his new car.
16. Professional car thieves are interested in dustfree American cars because________.
A. they have enough time to deal with the stolen cars
B. they have a special interest in American cars
C. American cars are popular in black car markets
D. American cars are usually new and expensive
答案与解析:A 文中第三段交代,无积尘说明该车是近期放的,而一般美国人旅行得花好几周时间,这就给了坏人们处理赃车的时间。
17. Car thefts go smoothly because ________.
A. the police have something to do with them
B. the stolen cars sell well in the world market
C. the thieves are familiar with the parking garages
D. they are promoted by some international crime groups 答案与解析:D 由第四段可知,这些偷车流程都有国际犯罪集团的背景。 18. The text indicates that Montreal airport officials seem to
have ________.
A. taken effective measures to solve the cartheft problem
B. considered the cartheft problem much worse than others
C. failed to give proper attention to the cartheft problem
D. realized the seriousness of the cartheft problem 答案与解析:C 最后一段开头,蒙特利尔机场安全负责人的言论就说明这些偷车现象没有引起他们应有的重视。 19. David Lee chooses to use Logan airport because it ________.
A. is cheaper in service
B. gives more care to cartheft
C. is more convenient for parking
D. shows more concern for passengers 答案与解析:B 由最后一句可知,他们考虑到汽车的安全因素才移到Logan。 B Bring the Family?

句 型 剖 析 1. Qi Baishi's style of painting often leaves the audience guessing and makes them use their imagination.齐白石的绘画风格常常给观赏者留出运用想像力解读其内涵的余地。 leaves the audience guessing为leave的复合结构。 以下是leave复合结构的几种形式: Leave the door open and you will breathe fresh air. 让门开着你就会呼吸到新鲜的空气。(leave+宾语+形容词/副词) He went out, leaving his papers lying open on the desk.他出去时,把他的文件摊在桌子上。(leave+宾语+现在分词) The bad weather left the project half finished.糟糕的天气使工程只完成了一半。(leave+宾语+过去分词) Ted's parents went abroad and left him in the care of his grandmother.泰德的父母都出国了,他由祖母照料。(leave+宾语+介词短语) His parents both died last year, leaving him an orphan.他的父母去年双双去世了,留下他一个孤儿。(leave+宾语+名词) They killed the bison, cut off the skins and left the bodies to rot.他们把野牛杀死,剥了皮,丢下尸体任其腐烂。(leave+宾语+动词不定式) Leave the medicine where the children can't reach it.把药放在孩子们够不到的地方。(leave+宾语+where引导的地点状语从句) Better take off your shoes and leave them outside.最好把鞋脱掉,放在外面。(leave+宾语+地点状语)
[解题警示] leave sth. with sb.表示“暂时存放”,以后还要取回。而leave sth. to sb.表示以后不再索要。在There is something/nothing left.句子中,过去分词left作后置定语,而remaining只能作前置定语。 Unit 6

[佳作欣赏] Dear Harry, How are things going with you? Talking about famous libraries, I would like to introduce our National Library to you.
The library, with Zi Zhuyuan Park as its neighbor, is located in the west of Beijing. It covers an area of 240,000 square meters, with 19 stories above the ground, and 3 stories underground, ranking the third in the world. The library has a total collection of over 22,000,000 copies of books, the largest number in Asia.
It provides readers with spacious reading rooms, convenient online service and the latest Web information. Its grand building, modern facilities and good service will surely leave you a very deep impression. No. 9 bus can pick me up from home and drop me right in front of the library, so I often go there to study or to borrow books. I enjoy the quiet and literary atmosphere in the library. Hope you can visit it some day and I'm looking forward to your next letter. Best wishes,
Yours,
Li Hua
