Ⅰ. 阅读理解
A
(2024·山西晋中高一检测) There are some palaces in Europe that you may be interested to know about.
Royal Palace of Madrid, Spain
It takes the title of the largest European palace by floor area and it is one of the largest palaces in the world. The Royal Palace of Madrid was built in the 18th century by order of Philip V on the site of the old Alcázar fortress, a former Moorish castle. With over 135,000 square metres and 3,418 rooms, it has seeded centuries of Spanish history. It is one of the few official seats of a head of state that is open to the public.
Royal Palace of Brussels, Belgium
It is a historic and the most wonderful building in Brussels, Belgium, next to Brussels Park. The Royal Palace of Brussels is the King’s main workplace, where he works daily with his staff. A tradition has been established since 1965 to open the Royal Palace of Brussels to the public normally from the 21 July until the beginning of September.
Pena Palace, Portugal
It is the most popular attraction in Sintra, Portugal, and the main reason why so many people visit the small mountain town less than one hour’s drive from the country’s capital city, Lisbon. The colourful palace perched upon a hill looks like something out of a fairy tale. Its yellow and bright red appearance makes Pena Palace one of the most picturesque places in Europe. The UNESCO World Heritage Site has a rich history that dates all the way back to the Middle Ages.
Palace of Venaria, Italy
It is a former royal living place with gardens located in Venaria Reale, near Turin in the Metropolitan City of Turin of the Piedmont region in northern Italy. It is one of the largest palaces in the world. It is one of the Residences of the Royal House of Savoy, included in the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1997.
1. Which palace covers the largest floor area in Europe?
A. Royal Palace of Madrid.
B. Pena Palace.
C. Royal Palace of Brussels.
D. Palace of Venaria.
2. When can tourists visit the Royal Palace of Brussels?

C. In August.
D. In October.

A. They are both in Asia.
B. They are both small palaces.
C. They are both forty minutes’ drive from the capital.
D. They are both on the UNESCO World Heritage List.
B
Being added to UNESCO’s World Heritage List often makes the site known worldwide, bringing more tourists and leading to access to international funding. But there are strings attached.
“World Heritage Sites are usually placed on the list forever,” said Mechtild Rossler, director of the UNESCO World Heritage Centre, “but countries have to do their best to protect and fight against threats to the sites.”
“Getting a place on the World Heritage List takes years,” said Rossler, adding that several sites waited some 25 years. Sites must be included on a “tentative list” before they can be formally nominated. The World Heritage Committee meets once a year to decide which nominated sites will be placed on the World Heritage List. To be accepted, sites must be of “outstanding universal value” and meet at least one of 10 standards.
When sites are under certain threats, countries are sent a warning letter. That’s what happened to Peru, which has received many warnings over threats from overtourism, landslides and flooding at Machu Picchu.
“Many sites take action in order to remove the threats,” said Rossler, “but not all.” At that point, the World Heritage Committee makes the decision to place a site on UNESCO’s List of World Heritage in Danger—often referred to simply as the Danger List.
“Governments fear having sites included on the Danger List will harm tourism,” Rossler said. “That’s what happened in the Galapagos Islands, where the government worked very hard to deal with threats to the area. The site was removed from the Danger List in 2010.”
4. What does it mean to be a World Heritage Site?
A. It should make some great changes.
B. It should be well protected by its country.
C. It can stay on the World Heritage List forever.
D. It can get funding from the World Heritage Centre.
5. What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about?
A. The makeup of the World Heritage List.
B. The difficulty of becoming a World Heritage Site.
C. The advantages of being included on a tentative list.
D. The responsibilities of the World Heritage Committee.
6. What is the World Heritage Committee’s attitude to Machu Picchu?
A. Uninterested.
B. Forgiving.
C. Worried.
D. Pleased.
7. What does the author want to show by mentioning the Galapagos Islands?
A. The Danger List does serious harm to many sites.
B. Governments find it easy to develop tourism.
C. The Danger List is ignored by many governments.
D. Governments make efforts to have their sites removed from the Danger List.
