　　(2011·江西高考)The garden city was largely the invention of Ebenezer Howard (1850—1928)．After immigrating from England to the USA, and an unsuccessful attempt to make a living as a farmer, he moved to Chicago, where he saw the reconstruction of the city after the disastrous fire of 1871.In those days, it was nicknamed “the Garden City”，almost certainly the source of Howard's name for his later building plan of towns.Returning to London, Howard developed his design in the 1880s and 1890s, drawing_on ideas that were popular at the time, but creating a unique combination of designs.

　　The nineteenth­century poor city was in many ways a terrible place, dirty and crowded; but it offered economic and social opportunities.At the same time, the British countryside was in fact equally unattractive: though it promised fresh air and nature, it suffered from agricultural depression(萧条) and it offered neither enough work and wages, nor much social life.Howard's idea was to combine the best of town and country in a new kind of settlement，the garden city.Howard's idea was that a group of people should set up a company, borrowing money to establish a garden city in the depressed countryside, far enough from existing cities to make sure that the land was bought at the bottom price.

　　Garden cities would provide a central public open space, radial avenues and connecting industries.They would be surrounded by a much larger area of green belt, also owned by the company, containing not merely farms but also some industrial institutions.As more and more people moved in, the garden city would reach its planned limit—Howard suggested 32,000 people; then, another would be started a short distance away.Thus, over time, there would develop a vast planned house collection, extending almost without limit; within it, each garden city would offer a wide range of jobs and services, but each would also be connected to the others by a rapid transportation system，thus giving all the economic and social opportunities of a big city.

　　1．How did Howard get the name for his building plan of garden cities?

　　A．Through his observation of the country life.

　　B．Through the combination of different ideas.

　　C．By taking other people's advice.

　　D．By using the nickname of the reconstructed Chicago.

　　2．The underlined phrase “drawing on” in Paragraph 1 probably means________.

　　A．making use of

　　B．making comments on

　　C．giving an explanation of

　　D．giving a description of

　　3．According to Howard, garden cities should be built______.

　　A．as far as possible from existing cities

　　B．in the countryside where the land was cheap

　　C．in the countryside where agriculture was developed

　　D．near cities where employment opportunities already existed

　　4．What can we learn about garden cities from the last paragraph?

　　A．Their number would continue to rise.

　　B．Each one would continue to become larger.

　　C．People would live and work in the same place.

　　D．Each one would contain a certain type of business.

　　答案与解析

　　[语篇解读]本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了花园城市的产生背景和设计理念。

　　1．D细节理解题。由文章第一段倒数第二句中的 almost certainly the source of Howard's name for his later building plan of towns.可知。

　　2．A词义猜测题。根据该词前后的 develop 和 creating 可知 Howard 利用当时流行的理念形成自己的设计风格，创造出独一无二的设计结构。

　　3．B细节理解题。根据文章第二段尤其是最后一句可以看出B项为最佳选项。

　　4．A推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中的 then，another would be started a short distance away.Thus over time，there would develop a vast planned house collection，可知这样的城市的数量会越来越多。

　　B

　　(2011·黑龙江哈九中二模)In our life, we face situations where we are either asked to choose between trust and disbelief.Many of us would say we have to choose trust over disbelief.Actually we are given intellectual (智力的) power to choose what we want, and what we choose certainly need not be the one that sounds pleasing.That is, we can choose both trust and disbelief, but we have to know when to choose between these two.

　　We should all realize that we are living in a world which is unfortunately mixed with people of various types.We have been given the power of judging who we are working with and who we are partnering with.We cannot give an excuse for believing a scheming (诡计多端的) person, just because he looked or sounded nice, unless we consider ourselves mentally unskillful.

　　This world was there before us and it does not owe us a single thing.We are asked to take care of ourselves and our belongings.Trust，too, has to be saved for the deserving (值得的) people.When we give trust universally to all, we end up troubled by the undeserving common cheat.People say trust is life.True! But only wisely exercised trust is life.

　　When we start a conversation with someone, the first things that we usually notice would be their dress, behavior, style and their language.What sometimes we all forget to look at is the person's intention.Now how to look at a person's intention is a lesson everybody has to learn for themselves in their own way—there is no single standard for it.But it is certainly possible to discover the purpose if we seek a little bit more.

　　Certainly a false offer of friendship or guidance cannot stand undiscovered for long；we_are_therefore_called_to_exercise _disbelief_over_trust_at_least_momentarily_till_we_find_out_that_we_certainly_are_in_agreement_with_a_mutual(相互的)good­ willed_person.

　　The world teaches you lots of lessons and if we are willing, we can learn all that we want.

　　1．In the first paragraph, the author________.

　　A．concentrates on the reason why we make different choices

　　B．focuses on how to choose between trust and disbelief

　　C．suggests that trust should be wisely exercised

　　D．implies that people are forced to make the choice

　　2．We can infer from the passage that________.

　　A．people who we are working with are in fact those who we are partnering with

　　B．the first thing we notice tends to mislead our judgment

　　C．the mentally healthy people will not judge a person by his looks

　　D．the standards of looking at a person's intention are not various

　　3．The underlined sentence means________.

　　A．trust and disbelief go hand in hand with each other

　　B．disbelief is necessary if you aren't wise

　　C．trust is established if two people know each other

　　D．doubt may serve as the precondition for trust

　　4．Which of the following can serve as the best title for the passage?

　　A．Trust or Disbelief?

　　B．Trust Is Life.

　　C．Trust over Disbelief?

　　D．Disbelief over Trust?

　　答案与解析

　　[语篇解读]　一生中，我们很多时候要在“信任与怀疑”之间做出选择。人们被赋予了做选择的能力，有些时候，怀疑是信任的必由之路。

　　1．C　推理判断题。根据文章第一段中Actually we are given intellectual(智力的)power to choose what we want，and what we choose certainly need not be the one that sounds pleasing.以及第三段中But only wisely exercised trust is life.可知C项正确。

　　2．B　推理判断题。根据文章第四段the first things that we usually notice would be their dress，behavior，style and their language.What sometimes we all forget to look at is the person's intention可知，我们首先看到的通常只是表面，而不是一个人的内心。

　　3．D　推理判断题。根据文章最后一段首句：Certainly a false offer of friendship or guidance cannot stand undiscovered for long(虚假的友情或指导掩饰不了多长时间)可以判断出最佳答案：doubt may serve as the precondition for trust(怀疑可能是信任的先决条件)。

　　4．A　主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章主题为：Trust or Disbelief？(信任与怀疑)，而并非论述“一方面胜过另一方面”，所以C、D不正确；B项太宽泛，也不正确。
