(7)B考查特殊疑问词及语境理解。句意:人们也可以想象如何进行第一次规划和建设的。What什么;how怎样;when什么时候;where哪里。选项A是疑问代词,用在此处语法结构错误;选项C和D分别指这座城市首次建造的时间和地点,与上文the original design of a town和what it used to look like没有联系;选项B表示这座城市设计建造的方式。根据句意结合语境可知该选B。

(8)D考查动词及语境理解。句意:然后人们还能更多地了解这座城市未来继续发展方向。Stops停止;appears出现;starts开始;continues继续。根据句意结合语境可知该选D。

(9)B考查名词及语境理解。句意:对我来说, 通过访问和用自己的眼睛看一个城镇,我相信一个人可以得到更大的快乐。success成功;pleasure高兴、快乐;hope希望;suffering痛苦。根据句意结合语境可知该选B。

【题目】根据短文理解,选择正确答案。
I once had a hard time making a living in France. Three years ago, I moved to a new neighborhood and felt an intense(强烈的) need to meet people so I went to the cinema. Outside the cinema was a woman with long gray hair who had a strong smell and was asking for money. I reached for my wallet to give her a Euro and then something made me stop and enter into conversation with her. I said, “Look, all the women going to the cinema here on a Tuesday night are seeing a film that can change your life. I'd rather buy you a ticket than give you money.”
She hesitated(犹豫) for a moment and then came in with me. She hid behind me because, she said, the people running the theater didn't like her. I got her a ticket and she sat next to me. There were about 80 women there; I noticed some of them were turning around and looking at me with expressions of surprise and curiosity(好奇心).
I encouraged the woman I had bought the ticket for to come the following night to an event where there would be many representatives(代表) of various social services. I thought they could be of some help to her. She did come and I was able to direct her to an agency that helped women in her situation. At the same time, a woman came toward me and said, “Are you the person who bought a ticket for the woman outside the theater asking for handouts?” When I said yes she said, “I want you to come to the community center where I work. I want the other employees there to meet you.”
This was the beginning of a deep friendship and colleague relationship. I now have a great job and have more work than I've ever had in my 20 years in France. And the woman I took to the cinema that night? I learned that she was not homeless and that she was a secretary.

【题目】 Did you ever see a fish with its very own lights? Some fish have built-in lights. That is, the lights are really part of the fish’s body! One such fish lives in the Red Sea. It is called the “flashlight fish” because it has special body parts, or organs, that give off light.

The flashlight fish has one light organ underneath (在下面)each eye. These lights are bright and greenish in color, and they are always “on”.
