Venice, one of the cities in Italy,was founded in A.D.811 by the people of Malamocco, fleeing （逃跑）from the Franks. It was said that they were guided by pigeons carrying little crosses, and settled where now Venice lies.
Venice is built on 117 islands. It has 150 canals and 400 bridges. The narrow streets, with their historic names, are covered with stones,but have no footpaths. They are dotted with flower shop signs and lanterns. Shops and palaces stand by side. The brick bridges are high enough to allow boats to pass freely under them.
The center of public life is St. Mark’s Square where tourists and citizens sit in the famous Florian and Quadri cafes to listen to music, enjoying themselves. The Quadri is more popular but the Florian, founded in 1720, is the best-known cafe because it has received such great persons as Byron (an English poet) and Goethe (a German poet).
Unfortunately the special position of Venice is threatening（威胁）it’s own existence. The terrain（地势）on which it is built began to sink while the level of the surrounding waters is constantly rising. Howe’ver, many measures have already been taken to prevent the city from sinking.
1. In the second paragraph, the author ______.
A. showed up where Venice is B. told us who built the city of Venice
C. described what Venice is like D. talked about why Venice is surrounded by waters
2. Which of the following shows the right relationship?（○=Italy;△=Venice;□=St.Marks Square）
3. Why is the Florian the famous cafe? Because ______.
A. it appeared in Byron and Goethe’s poems
B. it is more close to St. Mark’s Square than the Quadri
C. it was founded in 1720,much older than the Quadri
D. Byron and Goethe were once it’s customers
4. From the article we can see that ______.
A. many people have fled because Venice’s existence is being threatened
B. the level of the surrounding water is constantly rising because the city of Venice began to sink
C. the government has already taken many measures to save the city from going down
D. many steps have already been taken to prevent the terrain from rising

PART FOUR WRITING
SECTION A
Directions: Read the following passage. Complete the diagram by using the information for the passage. Write NO MORE THAN 3 WORDS for each answer
Tuvalu, a tiny country in the Pacific Ocean, has asked for help as it fears it will be flooded by the sea water.
Storms and huge waves are a constant threat and none of Tuvalu’s nine little islands is more than five meters above sea level. Salt water is already entering the country’s drinking water supply, as well as damaging plantations that produce fruit and vegetables. Without urgent help, the country’s days are numbered.
But Tuvalu is not the first place to face sinking into the sea. Venice, a historic city in Italy, best known for its canals, has sunk 24cm over the past 100 years. Experts say that it will have sunk another 20-50cm by 2050. A century ago, St. Mark’s Square, the lowest point in the city, flooded about nine times a year. Nowadays, it happens more than 100 times.
While Venice is slowly sinking into the mud on which it stands, Tuvalu’s rising sea level is caused by global warming.
The average global temperature has increased by almost 0.5 centigrade degree over the past century, scientists expect it to rise by an extra 1-3 degrees over the next 100 years.
Warmer weather makes glaciers(冰川) melt, adding more water to the ocean. The warmer temperatures also make water expand, so it takes more space, causing the sea level to rise. The sea level has risen about 10-25cm in the last 100 years.
The main cause of global warming is human pollution. Through burning coal and gas, people have been increasing the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. This adds to the power of the greenhouse effect, making the planet even warmer.
Many scientists believe that, if the warming is not stopped, there would be huge climate changes. The sea level could rise by one meter this century.
Should this come true, millions of homes would be flooded by the sea water and the world would be flooded with climate refugees(难民) looking for somewhere to live.
The Power of 71
I. Causes:
72 → global warming → 73 →sea level rising
II. 74 :
● 75 , a tiny country in the Pacific Ocean, will be flooded by the sea water.
● Venice, 76 in Italy,will sink another 20-50cm by 2050.
III. 77 :
● There would be 78 .
● The sea level could rise 79 this century.
Millions of homes would be flooded.
Many people would beturned into 80 .
