Locals have complained that tourism, including cruise ships, is responsible for increased pollution in the
30、city. Venice has implemented strict rules regarding tourism: littering, engaging in horseplay, not wearing a shirt in public, leaving love locks, and writing on or damaging trees or buildings are all fineable offenses in the city. Barcelona, Spain Locals in Barcelona arent shy about their dislike fo
31、r tourists. Popular attractions have even changed their rules as a result of tourist activity. La Boqueria, a large public market, banned tourist groups of more than 15 people in 2015.Before the ban, large groups of vacationers often blocked foot traffic while taking photographs, according to The Te
32、legraph. Santorini, Greece Santorini is a beautiful island off the coast of Greece. Its often packed with tourists during the summer. In fact, due to the seasonal influx (涌入) of tourists, the island imposed a rule limiting visitors from cruise ships to 8,000 per day. 790,000 people from 636 cruise s
33、hips visited Santorin in 2015, according to Conde Nast Traveler, while the entire island only has a population of just over 15,000. Amsterdam, the Netherlands Amsterdam has long been a popular vacation destination for party-loving travelers. In response to a rise in tourism, the city has put restric
34、tions on Airbnb so that a rental listing cannot have more than four people at a time, and that tourists cannot keep the rental apartments for more than 60 days a year. 21. According to this passage, for which behaviour will the tourists be fined? A. Blocking foot traffic in Barcelona B. Wearing a sh
35、irt in public in Santorini C. Buying a love lock in Amsterdam D. Damaging a tree in Venice 22. If you are going to rent an apartment in Amsterdam as a tourist, how long can you keep it within a year at most? A. A year. B. One month. C. Two months. D. A season. 23. What do these tourist attractions h
36、ave in common? A. These places have been popular all year around. B. Rules have been set or changed regarding tourism. C. Local people use violence against tourists. D. The number of tourists has decreased a little. 【答案】21. D 22. C 23. B 【解析】 本文是说明文，介绍了世界上著名的四大景点，为了限制过热的旅游业给城市带来的不利影响，这些旅游 景点制订了关于旅游的
37、一些限制规则。 【21 题详解】 细节理解题。根据 Venice, Italy部分中“Venice has implemented strict rules regarding tourism: littering, engaging in horseplay, not wearing a shirt in public, leaving love locks, and writing on or damaging trees or buildings are all fineable offenses in the city( 威尼斯实行了严格的旅游规则：乱扔垃圾、参与打闹、在公共场合不穿衬
38、衫、 留下爱情锁、在树木或建筑物上写字或损坏树木或建筑物都是城市中处罚的罪行）”可知，游客在威尼斯 毁坏树木是要被罚款的。故选 D项。 【22 题详解】 细节理解题。根据 Amsterdam, the Netherlands 的介绍中，“and that tourists cannot keep the rental apartments for more than 60 days a year”可知， 在阿姆斯特丹,规定游客一年不能将租赁公寓保留超过 60 天。 故选 C项。 【23 题详解】 推理判断题。在 Venice, Italy部分中，提到“Venice has implemente
39、d strict rules regarding tourism威尼斯在旅 游方面实施了严格的规定”；在 Barcelona, Spain 部分中，提到“Popular attractions have even changed their rules 受欢迎的景点甚至改变了规则”；在 Santorini, Greece部分中，提到“the island imposed a rule limiting visitors该岛实行了一项限制游客的规定”；在 Amsterdam, the Netherlands部分中，提到“the city has put restrictions on Airbn
40、b”。综合上面的介绍，可以推断，这些景点的一个共同点是：为了限制过热的旅游业给 城市带来的不利影响，这些旅游景点都制订了关于旅游的一些限制规则或者更改了原有的规则。故选 B项。 B The famous Spanish painter Pablo Picasso once said, “Every child is an artist. The problem he has is how to remain an artist once he grows up.” This is both encouraging and discouraging. The fact that we were
41、all born to be artists is certainly exciting, and yet the reality has proven that remaining one is a task that many of us have failed. Fortunately, some people have seen the problem and want to solve it. Western educators have suggested that we introduce the concept of “STEAM” instead of “STEM” - tr
42、aditional “core majors” including science, technology, engineering, and math -since the “A”, which stands for “arts”, is just as important. And on April 11, Chinas Ministry of Education issued a guideline. Colleges and universities are required to provide more art-related courses and students need t
43、o earn a certain number of art credits in order to graduate. These efforts came after many scientific studies had found that art education helps students develop self-confidence and teamwork skills, as well as habits of mind such as problem solving and critical thinking, according to The Washington
44、Post. Its true that none of these skills target specific jobs. But as former US ballet dancer Damian Woetzel told The Atlantic, the purpose of art is “to give kids the tools to become adults who are creative, adaptable, and expressive - capable of having their eyes and ears and senses alive”.And we
45、can now see how we lost track of our born “artist self” on our way to growing up: We failed to keep our capabilities to see, hear and feel, and became blind, deaf and insensitive adults. Hopefully, art education can help turn things around. 24. What is the function of the first paragraph? A. To intr
46、oduce a famous artist. B. To summarize the whole passage. C. To lead in the topic. D. To encourage us to be artists. 25. Why should the concept of “STEAM” be introduced according to western educators? A. Art is as important as traditional “core majors”. B. All of us should learn art in college. C. T
47、raditional “core majors” are out of date. D. Western education is more helpful. 26. What can we predict from the guideline issued by Chinas Ministry of education? A. More art-related courses will appear in all schools. B. College students will have to gain enough art credits to graduate. C. More stu
48、dents will major in art at colleges and universities. D. Art will become much more important than science. 27. What is the best title of the passage? A. Every child is an artist B. Bringing art to life C. Learning from the artists D. Life is art 【答案】24. C 25. A 26. B 27. B 【解析】 本文是议论文。西方教育工作者提出“STEA
49、M”的概念，说明 “艺术”和其他的核心专业同样重要。中国教育 部也发布了准则，要求 高校提供更多与艺术相关的课程，学生需要获得一定数量的艺术学分才能毕业。艺 术教育可以培养他们的自信、团队合作精神、思维习惯等。 【24 题详解】 推理判断题。 文章第一段借用西班牙著名画家Pablo Picasso说过的话Every child is an artist. The problem he has is how to remain an artist once he grows up.”每个孩子都是艺术家。 他所面临的问题是，一 旦他长大，如何继续成为一名艺术家”，是为了引出下文的关于孩子应该接受艺术教育的话题。故选 C项。 【25 题详解】 推理判断题。 根据第四段中“we introduce the concept of “STEAM” instead of “STEM” - traditional “core majors” including science, technology, engineering, and math -since the “A”, which stands for “arts”, is
