参考答案及解析

【P3】

II. 1. C。由第二段第一句 “Many believe the name comes from … the soot that was put out …” 可知许多人相信 Black Country 名字源自19世纪40年代工厂排放的煤烟 (空气污染)，所以选 C。

2. A。细节题。根据第四段 “we went to Carding Mill Valley … the changes that can happen to a river ... ” 及后一句可知学生们课上已学到一些关于河流的知识并去 Carding Mill Valley 实地了解为课题做准备。

3. C。第五段第一句提到 “The next day, we went to the famous Black Country Museum ... ”，由此得知，作者去参观了一个有名的博物馆。其它选项文中没有提到，故选 C。

4. D。最后一段提到“It was truly a happy trip. I enjoy this way of learning.” A是无用的、B是累人的、C是无聊的，都含有消极的意义，均可排除，故正确答案选 D。

II. 1. B。第一段提到 “In the past … had holidays on “holy” (religious) days: Sundays, Christmas and Easter.” 上班族过去只有礼拜日、圣诞节和复活节有假期。b 没提到，Bank holidays 是现在大多数人拥有的假期，而非过去，所以正确答案为 B。

2. D。由第二段第三句 “Taking a second holiday break … more popular in the UK.” 可知英国人越来越流行在冬天或春天度第二个假期。英国人暑期度假两周而非全年；学生七月份开始度假而非开学，故选 D。

3. A。根据第三段可知很多人购买的 package holiday

(旅行社负责一切的承包旅游)中包含便宜的海外航班和旅馆或公寓。“Flights and package holidays are much cheaper during school terms” 学生上学期间，这些会更便宜，所以排除 D；B、C 未体现省钱这件事。

4. A。最后一段写的是青少年独立的假期。“A British teenager might spend a week or two in a foreign country, staying with a family ...”，青少年会作为语言交换生在外国的另一个家庭寄宿生活，所以正确答案为 A。

2. D。第四段提到人们希望这几只克隆狗像它们的 “父亲” 一样有天赋。仅仅四个月大，它们已经展示出勇敢、有攻击力、超强的记忆力等优点，训练它们将花费更少的时间和金钱，故选D。

3. D。第六段提到克隆羊多利的例子，并说 “Some people have questioned whether cloning technology is safe.” 意味着一些人对克隆技术是好还是坏持不确定态度，所以正确答案为 D。

4. A。根据整篇文章进行推理判断，六只克隆狗被训练来破案的例子说明克隆动物在一些方面帮助着人们，可知 A 正确。克隆技术是好还是坏人们持怀疑态度，故 B 错误；人们担心克隆技术用在人身上，C 选项表述不准确；六只克隆狗活不久，这个没有明显根据，故否定D选项。
