Ⅰ.阅读理解

(2020·武汉高三训练题)In 2011, the old style Malta buses were taken off the road and replaced by modern vehicles. Most of the old buses were deserted, a few were sold, and about 100 of them were put into storage in the hope of showing them in a museum at some stage.
A pre2011 visit to Malta wouldn’t have been complete without a ride on one of the colorful buses. Until 1973 you could tell the destination of the bus just by looking at its color—Sliema was green and white, Zabbar was red and white with a blue stripe(条纹) etc. Later, the buses all had numbers. For a while, they were all painted green and white before the “final” orange, yellow and white.
In their prime,__walking around the Triton fountain at the Valletta bus station, you would have found it very difficult to see two buses of exactly the same design. Most of them had locally built bodies. On the front of the buses carried names like Dodge, Leyland, Bedford ect. You were equally likely to find football pennants
24
(锦旗) and the like decorating the cabs. Real bus experts would have recognized that these were there mainly for decorative reasons, and were seldom an accurate reflection of the vehicle’s origins.
Nowadays much more modern buses are to be found at the Floriana bus station. They are more environmentally friendly and possibly even more comfortable than the older types. However, I miss the old buses. I remember, when you boarded your bus, you had to prepare the correct change to pay the usually badtempered driver as you got on. If you were seated anywhere near the front, you would have noticed that most drivers sat well to the right of their steering wheel. The reason for this, as any Maltese would tell you, was to leave space for their pet to sit alongside them. I wonder where the pet sits these days.

(2020·贵阳高三摸底)Traveling by subway can sometimes be quite an adventure, especially during rush hour. There are the times when you have to avoid cups of coffee that could spill(溅) on you. The smells of some passengers’ food are very strong, too.
According to the Beijing subway passenger regulations, which went into effect on May 15th, passengers except babies and the sick are no longer allowed to eat or drink on the subway. Violators(违规者) who do not stop after being asked to will be asked to get off. The violation will also be recorded in the violators’ credit record.
Some support the rule. The reason is that the smell of food and drink can annoy other passengers.“The smell of food fills the carriage, causing people discomfort, especially in the hot summer. Besides, eating on the subway produces rubbish. And on the subway, people often spill their drinks,” said Zheng Yiou, 17, a student from Hefei.
However, others question this rule.“Some citizens live so far from their workplaces that they have limited time to have breakfast before they go to work. Eating while they travel saves them time and decreases the chance that they will be late for work,” He Songlin, a 17yearold student from Chengdu said.“And some people, like those with low blood sugar levels, get sick if they can’t eat when they must.”
24
Other Chinese cities like Nanjing and Chengdu have similar regulations. Some foreign cities also ban eating and drinking on the subway. For example, eating and drinking have long been banned on the subway in Washington, D.C. Singapore fines people who eat or drink on the subway up to 500 Singapore dollars.
Chen Yanyan, a professor from Beijing University of Technology, believed we should consider the need of some people to eat or drink on the subway.“Commuters(上班族) and travelers are sometimes too busy to eat. Maybe we could learn from Tokyo, where there are many subway stations equipped with services, allowing passengers to eat and drink,” she said.
【解题导语】 《北京市轨道交通乘客守则》规定在地铁上禁止乘客(除了病人和婴儿)吃东西、喝饮料。南京和成都等城市和一些国外的城市也出台了相应的规定。有些人支持这一规定,也有一些人认为在地铁上吃喝能节省时间、避免上班迟到,而且有些人是因为身体原因必须吃喝。北京工业大学的一名教授认为我们可以学习东京地铁站的做法。
5.In which city were subway passenger regulations carried out on May 15th?
A.Chengdu. B.Nanjing.
C.Washington, D.C. D.Beijing.
D 解析:细节理解题。根据第二段第一句中的“According to the Beijing subway passenger regulations, which went into effect on May 15th”可知,D项正确。
6.What is the punishment for the passengers who break the rules in Singapore?
A.Eating on the subway.
B.Drinking on the subway.
C.Being fined heavily.
D.Being asked to get off the train.
C 解析:细节理解题。根据第五段尾句“Singapore fines people who eat or drink on the subway up to 500 Singapore dollars.”可知,在新加坡,违规在地铁上吃喝将被罚款最高500新加坡元。故C项正确。
7.What is Chen Yanyan’s attitude to eating or drinking on the subway?
A.Worried. B.Sympathetic.
C.Doubtful. D.Uninterested.
B 解析:观点态度题。根据尾段内容可知,陈教授认为,我们应当考虑一些人对在地铁上吃喝的需求。上班族和旅客太忙,没有时间吃饭,故应当学习东京的做法,在地铁站配备相应的服务系统,允许乘客在地铁站吃喝。据此可推知,陈教授是赞同在地铁上吃喝的,故B项正确。
8.What would be the best title for the text?
24
A.Food and Drink Banned on Subway
B.The Adventure of Subway Traveling
C.Ways to Eat and Drink on Subway
D.The Services on Subway Stations
A 解析:标题归纳题。通读全文可知,本文第二段第一句“According to the Beijing subway passenger regulations...passengers except babies and the sick are no longer allowed to eat or drink on the subway.”为全文的主题句;并结合全文内容可知,本文主要介绍了《北京市轨道交通乘客守则》的规定,即除婴儿和病人外,乘客不得在地铁上吃喝;并介绍了与此有类似规定的城市的情况及人们对此的态度,故A项最适合作本文标题。
