The city of Venice, in Italy, is one of a kind. It is built on more than 120 islands, just off the coast. The islands are small and close together. The waterways between them are used as streets. They are called canals.
In this watery world, people use boats to get from place to place. Gondolas to place, small boats that are moved with one oar(桨), were once the only boats used in the canals. But today motorboats make getting around faster; there are still lots of gondolas, though. Many visitors go to Venice all the year round. And they like to ride in the old-style(老式)boats.
If you aren't going far in this city, it's easier to go on foot. There are hundreds of narrow footpaths. About 100 low bridges connect the footpaths and islands. But these bridges cause problems for the boaters. When the sea tide(潮)is high, the canal water rises. People in the boats must duck to fit under bridges.

[ ]
A.all the buildings in Venice are help up(抬高)on seawater
B.there's no land in the city of Venice
C.the streets in Venice are all lined with waterways

D.motorboats have taken the place of gondolas in Venice now

[ ]
A.All the Venetian people like to ride in the old-style boats.
B.Neither cars nor buses are used in Venice.
C.Citizens in Venice don't walk much.
D.Gondolas rides are much more expensive.
(4)Which of the following statements leads us to the conclusion that traveling around Venice by gondolas can be slow? ________
[ ]
A.Gondolas, small boats that are moved with one oar, were once the only boats used in the canals.
B.But today, motorboats make getting around faster.
C.But these bridges cause problems for the boaters.
D.People in the boats must duck to fit under bridges.
(5)The word“duck”in the last sentence means ________.
[ ]

B.go quickly under water for a short time
C.swim as a duck does
D.dive suddenly like a duck
