The architect behind a design and the creation's history or purpose are all elements that may prove particularly attractive. The following buildings are all good getaways and well worth visiting. Bradbury Building Los Angeles Glancing at the Bradbury Building, built in 1893, the oldest and premier commercial building in L.A., you may say, “OK, it's a 19th-century relic.” Step inside and you will be surprised by the light-filled Victorian court, a wonder of open-cage elevators, marble stairs, and splendid iron barriers. Its architectural history is debatable—Sumner Hunt's designs seem to have been completed by George H. Wyman, who monitored the construction. Vizcaya Museum and Gardens Miami Built in 1916, the Vizcaya Museum and Gardens, formerly Villa Vizcaya, is the one-time winter home of the businessman James Deering. On Biscayne Bay in the Coconut Grove neighborhood, the early-20th-century property features the Italian Renaissance(文艺复兴) gardens, native woodlands, and a complex of historic outbuildings. The property designed by Paul Chalfin is today operated by Miami-Dade County. Rogers Building Orlando Now housing an art gallery, the Queen Anne-style structure built in 1886, the one-time home to cocktail-and-gaming clubs, was donated to the City of Orlando in early 2018 by Ford Kiene. The restriction that it must remain an art and culture center for at least 20 years ensures public access for the near future. Griffith Observatory Los Angeles It's possible to see the stars at this destination that includes sweeping views of the city and the Hollywood sign, and that has a planetarium(天文馆) to boot. It's been a draw for its construction style since its opening in 1935, with a expansion worth $93 million completed in 2006. 1.Which of the following has the shortest history?　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 A.The Bradbury Building.　　B.The Griffith Observatory. C.The Rogers Building.　　D.The Vizcaya Museum and Gardens. 2.What can we learn about the Rogers Building? A.It used to be an art gallery.　　 B.It was expanded in 1892. C.It was once privately owned.　　 D.It has been a culture center for 20 years. 3.In which column of a magazine can this text probably be read? A.Business.　B.Travel.　C.Science.　D.Education. B (2025陕西榆林阶段性测试) Eastern hellbenders, a type of freshwater salamander(蝾螈) found only in North America, are active at night. Hellbenders hide beneath the cracks of large, smooth rocks in the riverbeds of the Appalachian Mountains, making it not easy to find them. “If you didn't see the two little eyes, you could easily pass it up as a rock,” says Robert Adams, who studies hellbenders at Appalachian State University. In late June, Adams and a team of scientists spotted some hellbenders in the Watauga River in North Carolina (NC). They caught, labelled and relocated these hellbenders to a different part of the Watauga River while US Fish and Wildlife Service biologists and engineers carefully removed Shull's Mill Dam, an abandoned dam. The project, led by non-profits American Rivers and MountainTrue, is a common effort to improve the river's water quality while creating a better habitat for eastern hellbenders, whose population has decreased by an estimated 70 percent since the 1980s. The rivers across southern Appalachia naturally flowed fast, but as humans developed the area in the 1800s, dams were put in place to create reservoirs and power industry. In turn, the water flow decreased, urban pollution increased, and sand, stones and mud blocked the cracks where hellbenders lived and fed. Hellbenders are highly sensitive to pollution because they breathe through the folds of their skin, which means pollutants more easily enter their bodies. Ward's Mill Dam was the first removed dam on the Watauga River in 2021. Eastern hellbenders hadn't been documented near that dam in over 100 years, but they returned once it was removed. Although removing the dams is a messy process, the project leaders say the long-term benefits far outweigh the temporary disturbance. Dam removal isn't just happening on the Watauga River. An estimated 540,000 dams exist across the country, according to the Southeast Aquatic Resources Partnership, with about 28,000 in NC alone. The $700,000 project in NC was partly funded through a larger $800 million allocation(划拨款) for dam removal nationwide from the federal 2021 Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. 4.What can be learned about eastern hellbenders? A.They are hard to spot.　　B.They are inactive at night. C.They like to lie on the rocks.　　D.They are seen around the world. 5.What is the final purpose of putting hellbenders to a different part of the Watauga River? A.To improve their living conditions.　　 B.To avoid their being caught by humans. C.To build more dams for industry.　　 D.To create a better environment for humans. 6.What can we say about dams? A.They cut down on urban pollution.　 B.It is inexpensive to build them. C.They do harm to hellbenders.　　 D.It is unwise to remove them. 7.What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs? A.It is a pity to have Ward's Mill Dam removed. B.The hellbender population will probably grow in NC. C.The government will support the building of dams. D.Hellbenders appeared near Ward's Mill Dam in 2020. 答案与分层梯度式解析 Part 1　Reading and Thinking 基础过关练 Ⅰ.1.at　考查介词。feel at home意为“感到无拘无束/亲切自在”,是固定搭配。故填at。句意:尽管烹饪设备很简单,但它总是很美味,我对中国食物感到亲切自在。 2.to　考查介词。be native to是固定搭配,意为“原产于……;源于……”,故填介词to。 3.to/towards　考查介词。an attitude to/towards...为固定搭配,意为“对……的态度”。故填to或towards。句意:尽管面临许多挑战,他对生活仍保持着一种洒脱的态度,相信一切最终都会好起来。 4.Personally　考查副词。personally speaking意为“就我个人而言”。句首单词首字母大写,故填Personally。句意:就我个人而言,我相信实践是理解和了解世界最有效和最有益的方式。 5.political　考查形容词。修饰名词career 应用形容词political。故填political。句意:19 岁时,苏轼就通过了科举考试,这是通往政治生涯的途径。随后,他担任了各种政府职位。 6.foundation　考查名词。lay a foundation for...意为“为……奠定基础”。句意:参加所有被提供的课程,专注于能为你现在的业务或下一份工作打下基础的技能。 7.bakery　考查名词。句意:她每天黎明前起床,前往当地的面包店,在那里她花费漫长而令人疲惫的时间和面和压面团。根据语境可知,此处表示“面包店”,需用bake的名词形式bakery。故填bakery。 8.convinced　考查形容词。句意:育儿中有很多事情值得详细讨论,但我确信食物不在此列。 be convinced that...意为“深信/确信……”。故填形容词 convinced。 9.Located　考查过去分词。be located in...意为“位于……”,设空处位于句首,作状语,故填过去分词Located。句意:故宫,又称紫禁城,位于北京市中心,是一个值得游览的地方。 10.referred　考查过去分词。分析句子结构可知,句中已有谓语,故设空处应使用非谓语动词。refer to...as...意为“把……称为……”,分析语境可知这里指refer to the National Aquatics Center as the “Water Cube”, The National Aquatics Center和refer to...as...之间是被动关系,故应用过去分词。句意:国家游泳中心,也被称为“水立方”,已被改造成2022年北京冬奥会使用的“冰立方”。 Ⅱ.1.wherever he travels　2.it is about/high time that we made　3.It is said that;among which　4.With too much time spent 能力提升练 Ⅰ.1.informally　考查副词。设空处修饰谓语is referred to,所以用副词作状语。故填informally。 2.was　考查时态和主谓一致。设空处为and前的分句的谓语,结合When引导的时间状语从句可知,设空处应用一般过去时,主语为my first impression,故填was。 3.introduction　考查名词。此处构成“the+名词+of...”的结构。故填introduction,表示“引进,引入”,为不可数名词。 4.but　考查连词。空格前面说澳大利亚土著人口可能很少,后面说其影响仍然明显。故设空处前后为转折关系,应用表示转折意义的并列连词but。 5.musical　考查形容词。设空处需用形容词修饰名词instruments,故填musical。musical instrument意为“乐器”。 6.found　考查过去分词。设空处所在句中已有谓语,所以此处用非谓语动词,提示词find与名词sticks(枝条)之间是被动关系,所以用其过去分词形式作后置定语,修饰sticks。故填found。 7.which　考查“介词+关系代词”引导的定语从句。分析句子结构可知,逗号后没有连词,空前有介词among,表示“在这些乐器中,迪吉里杜管非常令人惊叹”,所以“among 　7　”引导非限制性定语从句,先行词指物,应用关系代词which。   8.cultures　考查名词复数。 根据下文的Western culture 和minority cultures可知,这里应用名词的复数形式表示多种文化。故填cultures。 9.a　考查冠词。 play a role in...意为“在……中起作用”。故填a。 10.towards/to　考查介词。根据设空处前面的attitude可以判断,此处用介词承接后面的名词life,表示 “对……的态度”,常用介词towards或to。 Ⅱ.◎语篇解读　本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍了安徽徽州古城和怡花湾文旅小镇,以及 2024 年前三个季度中国乡村旅游的整体数据。 【高频词汇】　1.elegantly adv.优雅地　2.leisurely adj.悠闲的　3.introduce sb. to sth.使某人初次了解/尝试某物　4.preservation n.保护　5.in full blossom盛开 6.household adj.家庭的 n.家庭 【熟词生义】　quarter熟义:n.十五分钟;四分之一 生义:n.季度 【差距词汇】　year-on-year adj.与上年同期相比的,同比的 1.to　考查介词。句意:咖啡店经理汪子俊身穿汉服,优雅地为寻找自由的顾客端上热气腾腾的咖啡和小吃。serve sth. to sb.意为“给某人提供某物;为某人端上某物”。故填to。 2.traditional　考查形容词。句意:店内装饰有中国传统书法作品和色彩鲜艳的鱼形灯笼。设空处修饰Chinese calligraphy,需用形容词作定语。故填traditional。 3.attraction　考查名词。句意:“中式咖啡店的悠闲节奏与老街的魅力相得益彰。”汪说。根据空前的定冠词the和空后的介词of可知应用名词,此处指老街的“吸引力”,应用名词 attraction(不可数)。 4.really　考查副词。句意:一场基于当地历史和古老故事的演出吸引了观众,因为它让人们感觉仿佛真的置身于古徽州之中。设空处作状语,需用副词。故填really。 5.an　考查冠词。句意:……在旺季,单场演出吸引的观众超过1,800人。“an audience of+数词”为固定搭配,意为“……数量的观众/听众”。故填an。 6.located　考查过去分词。句意:在位于安徽宿松县的怡花湾文旅小镇,游客可以徒步穿越山谷,采摘新鲜的水果和蔬菜,欣赏全年盛开的花海。本句已有谓语“can hike”“(can) pick”“(can) admire”,故设空处用非谓语动词。Yihuawan Cultural Tourism Town 与提示词 locate 之间为被动关系,所以此处需填过去分词作后置定语。故填located。 7.that/which　考查定语从句。设空处引导限制性定语从句,先行词为flowers(指物),关系词在从句中作主语,故用关系代词 that 或 which。故填that或which。 8.has sold　考查动词时态和主谓一致。根据时间状语Since 2023可知,句子应用现在完成时,且主语为第三人称单数,助动词应用has。故填has sold。 9.boosting　考查现在分词。句意:它还为当地创造了400多个就业岗位,使家庭年均收入增加了6,000元。本句已有谓语,且空前没有连词,因此设空处用非谓语动词;句子主语It与boost(使增长)之间为主动关系,故用现在分词作结果状语,表示自然而然的结果。故填boosting。 10.first　考查序数词。句意:2024年前三个季度,中国乡村旅游区接待游客约 22.5亿人次,同比增长15.5%,总收入达到了约1,837亿美元。此处表示在2024年的“前三个季度”,应用序数词。故填first。 知识拓展　　“the first+基数词(two/three/four/...)+可数名词复数”表示按顺序排列的前几个事物,如:the first three chapters of the book 这本书的前三章;the first five pages of your report 你的报告的前五页;the first ten customers 前十位顾客;the first few months 最初的几个月。 Ⅲ.
