    The first navigational lights in the New World were probably lanterns hung at harbor entrances.The first lighthouse was put up by the Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1716 on Little Brewster Island at the entrance to Boston Harbor, Paid for and maintained by“light dues”levied(征 收)on ships,the original beacon was blown up in 1776.Until then there were only a dozen or so true lighthouses in the colonies.Little over a century later,there were 700 lighthouses.
    The first eight lighthouses erected on the West Coast in the 1850s featured the same basic New England design:a Cape Cod dwelling with the tower rising from the center or standing close by .In New England and elsewhere,though,lighthouses reflected a variety of architectural styles.
    Since most stations in the Northeast were set up on rocky eminences(高处),enormous towers were not the rule .Some were made of stone and brick,others of wood or metal.Some stood on pilings or stilts;some were fastened to rock with iron rods.Farther south,from Maryland through the Florida Keys,the coast was low and sandy.It was often necessary to build tall towers theremassive structures like the majestic lighthouse in Cape Hatteras,North Carolina,which was lit in 1870.190 feet high,it is the tallest brick lighthouse in the country.
    Not withstanding differences in construction appearance,most lighthouses in America shared several features:a light,living quarters,and sometimes a bell(or,later,a foghorn).They also had something else in common:a keeper and usually the keeper's family.The keeper's essential task was trimming the lantern wick(灯芯)in order to maintain a steady,bright flame. The earliest keepers came from every walk of life, they were seamen,farmers,mechanics,rough mill hands and appointments were often handed out by local customs commissioners as political plums.
    After the administration of lighthouse was taken over in 1852 by the United States Lighthouse Board,and agency of the Treasury Department,the keeper corps gradually became highly professional.

    It can be inferred from the passage that lighthouses in the Northeast did NOT need high towers because______.
    A: ships there had high masts
    B: coastal waters were safe
    C: the coast was straight and unobstructed
    D: the lighthouses were built on high places

    答案:D
    解析:
    本文从最早美国灯塔的雏形,谈到美国早期灯塔的建筑,以及美国早期灯塔在外形和建筑上的共同点,最后还谈到了灯塔管理人员的工作生活。文章所提到的要点都是围绕着美国早期灯塔。选项B、D文中均有涉及,但并非重点。A项只提到了美国第一座灯塔。所以,正确答案是C。


    考的具体细节是作者提到马萨诸塞湾殖民地的原因。本文第一段第二句“The first lighthouse was put up by the Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1716 on Little Brewster Island at the entrance to Boston Harbor”提供了答案。所以,正确答案是D。


    考的是位于东北地区的灯塔建得不是很高的原因。本题的线索在第二段第三句话“Since most stations in the Northeast were built on rocky eminences,enormous towers were not the rule.”文中说,由于大多数位于东北地区的灯塔建在岩石高地上,所以,一般灯塔都不需要建得很高很大。所以,正确答案是D。


    考的具体细节是最高的砖砌灯塔位于什么地方。依据原文第二段第八句话,“…like the majestic lighthouse in Cape Hatteras…it is the tallest brick lighthouse in the coun-try.”我们可以得知,1870年建于北卡罗来纳州Hatteras角的灯塔是美国最高的砖砌灯塔,高度为190英尺。所以,正确答案是C。


    考的是北卡罗来纳州的海岸情况。根据原文第二段第七、八句话“Farther south,from Maryland through the Florida Keys,…it is the tallest brick lighthouse in the country.”可知,马里兰(Maryland)和佛罗里达海岸(the Florida Keys)相似,而马里兰(Maryland)和佛罗里达(the Florida Keys)海岸是low and sandy。所以,北卡罗来纳州也应是low and sandy。选项A rocky eminences指的是美国东北海岸,选项B、D根本没有提及。所以,正确条案是C。

  • 第10题:

    问答题
    Practice 10  The momentum is building ahead of next month’s G8 summit in Scotland where the leaders of the world’s richest nations will debate what they can do to help some of the world’s poorest. Africa is the priority and the politicians will discuss reducing the debt burden, ending trade regulations which put the continent’s economy at a disadvantage, and giving more aid. Mark Doyle, who’s reported from Africa for many years, looks at why aid is necessary, and why much of what’s been donated in the past has not worked.  All around the edge of Africa-along the coastline, near the continents’ ports—are monuments to exploitation. On the island of Goree, for example, just off the coast of Senegal, there’s: the Slave House. This was the last place many Africans saw before being shipped off to a lifetime of slavery in American or, just as often, to death on the high seas.  There are many more places like this dating from the three hundred and fifty years or so of the African slave trade. When people wonder why Africa is so poor, they need look no further for the start of an explanation.

    下个月在苏格兰举行的八国峰会上,世界上最富有国家的领导人将会讨论他们能为世界上最贫穷的国家做些什么。而在峰会召开前的一个月这种发展势头就有了征兆。非洲是优先考虑的对象,政客们会讨论减少非洲的债务负担,终止那些束缚非洲经济发展的贸易规则,同时给予更多的经济援助。马克·多伊勒在非洲从事新闻报道多年,他将探讨为什么经济援助是必须的,以及为什么以前的大部分资助没有起到作用。
    沿着非洲的边界线——沿着海岸线,靠近大陆的港口——矗立着关于剥削的纪念碑。例如,离塞内加尔海岸线不远处的戈雷岛上就有一个奴隶交易所。这是很多被船只运往远方的非洲人离开故土时所看到的最后一个场景,他们很可能一辈子在美洲做奴隶,或是在途中葬身于汹涌的大海,而这种事情时常发生。
    还有很多这样的地方,他们可以一直追溯到350年以前的非洲奴隶交易。当人们纳闷为什么非洲如此贫穷时,他们不再需要其他的解释。
