[2020·合肥市高三第三次教学质量检测]Examples of effective conservation of places matter to the world. They range from the 1960s Nubian campaign to safeguard Ancient Egyptian monuments from the waters of the Aswan Dam to the removal in 2018 of the Belize Barrier Reef from the List of World Heritage in Danger. Conservation is the core purpose of the World Heritage Convention and it may also be its biggest challenge.
The following example shows how successes at specific sites now serve as models for conservation and sustainable development. A year after Vienna was included on the World Heritage List in 2001, the World Heritage Committee (WHC) expressed concerns about the architectural solutions and height of four planned towers of the Wien Mitte project. This development project, close to the Historic Centre of Vienna in the site's buffer zone, the one that lies between two or more other areas, affected the urban scale (规模) and visual effects in and around the property (地产). As a result of the Committee's concerns, Vienna changed its building modes and launched a new design competition for the Wien Mitte project to work out architectural plans with reduced size in keeping with World Heritage protection.
The successful practice inspired the government of the city to invite over 600 experts and professionals from 55 countries to an international conference on World Heritage and contemporary architecture, held in Vienna in May 2005. The global discussion that followed, detailing an approach to managing conservation and development, was recorded in the UNESCO Recommendation in 2011.
The Recommendation put forward an all-round and combined approach to balancing urban heritage conservation and economic development, arguing that active protection and management of urban heritage supports the goal of sustainable development. The Recommendation supports the harmonious combination of contemporary involvement into the historic urban framework while holding on to values linked to history, memory and the environment.

A.It took up too much public land of the city.
B.It had a bad effect on the Historic Centre of Vienna.
C.Its original designs were not environmentally friendly.
D.Its architectural solutions couldn't meet safety standards.
3.What did the global discussion focus on?

[2020·重庆市七校联考]Being stuck behind crowds of slow walkers when you're in a hurry is one of the most annoying things. But now, Lakeside Shopping Centre in Essex, one of the UK's largest shopping malls, has introduced its very own fast lane for shoppers in a hurry, aiming to help impatient shoppers avoid slow walkers and the anger that goes with them.
The Lakeside Shopping Centre in Essex has introduced a 720foot “fast lane” reserved for fast walkers only, just in time for the festive rush. The centre's management team said:“The lane will help the shoppers who know where they want to go quickly and don't want to get caught in behind unhurried shoppers at the busiest time of the year.”
The fast lane was introduced after a MasterCard survey found that 80 percent of consumers found slow walkers their biggest annoyance while shopping. The research also found that the average walking speed slowed down by 21 percent during the festive shopping period, as most shoppers spent more time window shopping during this period.
Gary Mortimer, an expert from the Queensland University of Technology, said he

wasn't surprised by the promotion about the launch of the fast lane, and thought the concept would appeal to shoppers all over the world.“Crowded parking lots and busy shopping centres tend to be two of the biggest complaints of shoppers over the festive season,” he said,“I think the fast lanes are a new approach. However, I suspect it will be a bit like fast lanes on the highway, so it might end up being more trouble than its worth.”
The MasterCard survey also identified the four most common types of shoppers. They include “Skaters” who try and make their way through crowds politely,“Dodgers” who move down the paths to avoid slow walkers,“Bulldozers” who push their way through crowds, and “Tutters” who express their frustrations to slow walkers.
5.The fast lane is intended for the shoppers who ________.
A.can't move quickly because of physical disabilities
B.buy things on their shopping lists quickly
C.take their time to do window shopping
D.want to leave the mall quickly
6.What is Gary Mortimer's attitude to the fast lane?
A.Supportive. B.Indifferent.
C.Critical. D.Objective.
7.Who may patiently move behind a slow crowd?
A.Skaters. B.Dodgers.
C.Bulldozers. D.Tutters.
8.What is the main idea of the text?
A.Shopping can he annoying sometimes.
B.How to avoid slow walkers when shopping.
C.The problems that shopping centres face during busy holidays.
D.The shopping mall creates the fast lane to avoid slow walkers.

体裁:说明文 题材:文化生活 主题:遗产保护
【语篇解读】 该文通过讲述一些具体的例子来倡导对遗产进行有效保护和可持续发展。
1.C 考查推理判断。根据第一段第一句“Examples of effective conservation of places matter to the world”以及其和第二句之间的关系可推知,第二句所列举的例子是在证明这个观点,故选C。
2.B 考查细节理解。根据第二段中的“This development project, close to the Historic Centre of Vienna... launched a new design competition for the Wien Mitte project to work out architectural plans with reduced size in keeping with World Heritage protection”可知,WHC之所以对Wien Mitte项目担忧是因为该项目对维也纳历史中心有不好的影响。
3.A 考查细节理解。根据第三段最后一句中的“The global discussion that followed, detailing an approach to managing conservation and development”可知,这次全球讨论的焦点是详述遗产保护和发展的方法。
4.D 考查主旨大意。根据第二段第一句“The following example shows how successes at specific sites now serve as models for conservation and sustainable development”并结合对全文的整体理解可推知,本文旨在提倡对遗产的有效保护和可持续发展。
【干扰项分析】 A项错在是为了检验全球城市规划者所面临的挑战,这只是其中例子所体现的问题,而非作者所表达的关键所在;B项错在为了引进保护环境的其他方法,文中未提及;C项错在为了强调历史和记忆价值的重要性,与主题无关,故排除。
B
体裁:说明文 题材:新闻报道 主题:购物中心引进快速通道
【语篇解读】 本文主要介绍了英国一家大型的购物中心在节日高峰期引进快速通道一事。
【难句分析】 The fast lane was introduced after a MasterCard survey found that 80 percent of consumers found slow walkers their biggest annoyance while shopping.
分析:本句是一个复合句。after a MasterCard survey found... while shopping为after引导的时间状语从句,在此状语从句中含有that引导的宾语从句,that在从句中不作句子成分。
- 10 -
译文:在一项MasterCard的调查中发现,80%的顾客认为在购物时走路慢的人使他们最为气恼,之后快速通道就被引进了。
5.B 考查推理判断。根据第一段第二句“But now, Lakeside Shopping Centre in Essex, one of the UK's largest shopping malls, has introduced its very own fast lane for shoppers in a hurry, aiming to help impatient shoppers avoid slow walkers and the anger that goes with them”和第二段最后一句“The centre's management team said:‘The lane will help the shoppers who know where they want to go quickly and don't want to get caught in behind unhurried shoppers at the busiest time of the year.’”可推知,快速通道是为那些想迅速购物的人而设计的,故选B。

①name改为named。考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,动词name与the activity之间为逻辑上的动宾关系,故用其过去分词形式。
②talk改为talked。考查动词的时态。根据文章内容可知,全文讲述的是发生在过去的事情,使用的时态都为一般过去时,所以此处也应该用一般过去时。
③say改为saying。考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知,say和其逻辑主语They之间为主谓关系,故用其现在分词形式saying。
④drive后加to。考查介词。此处表示“开车去上班”,故用介词to“向,朝”。
⑤they改为we。考查代词。根据语境可知,此处表示正如我们许诺的一样,而非他们。
