D 。語(yǔ)義理解題。從第1 段 the island of Great Britain is connected

15、to Continental Europefor the first time since the Ice Age 可以看出the island of Great Britain 和 France 是由 the tunnel連接起來(lái)的。2. Co 語(yǔ)義理解題。第 2 段第 2 句tThe Queen was accompanied（陪同）on her train journey through the historic tunnel by one of her Rolls-Royce cars which was placed on the train 已明確 告知 Queen Elizabe

16、th 是怎么去參加開(kāi)幕典禮的。3. Bo判斷題。既然1994年以前沒(méi)有隧道，那當(dāng)然只有坐船或乘飛機(jī)從英國(guó)去法國(guó)。4. Do判斷題。拿破侖是同意修建隧道的計(jì)劃，并不是制定計(jì)劃，故排除 A項(xiàng)；接近1994 年底，公眾才能夠坐火車(chē)穿過(guò)隧道，B 項(xiàng)不對(duì)；文章并沒(méi)有說(shuō)隧道建了多長(zhǎng)時(shí)間，C項(xiàng)也不對(duì)；而隧道修建成功時(shí)，英、法兩國(guó)元首都出席，由此可見(jiàn)隧道對(duì)兩國(guó)的重要性。（ 2） 【答案與解析】本文主要講的是美國(guó)的首都Washing D. C 的由來(lái)、在美國(guó)的地位及它的設(shè)計(jì)風(fēng)格。1. B。 細(xì)節(jié)題。 根據(jù)第 1 段第 2 句 The thirteen states quarreled about this 可知

17、答案為B。2. B。細(xì)節(jié)判斷題。 根據(jù)第 1 段 was given the name District （D. C）, The new CapitalItwas named after George Washington 及第 2 段 Washington D. C, a government city可知答案為 B 。3. B。 細(xì)節(jié)判斷題。根據(jù)第 1 段 The land on the River Potomac was given the name Districtof Columbia （D. C）. The new Capital was built on the north ba

18、nk of the river 可知此題答案為 B。4. Ao因?yàn)?Washington D. C是美國(guó)的首都，所以它應(yīng)是美國(guó)的政治中心；再根據(jù)第2段中 is a important cultural centre as well as a big tourist centre可知它也是美國(guó)的文化和旅游中心。所以答案為A。（ 3） 【答案解析】本表格是美國(guó)歷次戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)的開(kāi)支情況統(tǒng)計(jì)。1. Bo細(xì)節(jié)題。從表中可以看出美國(guó)內(nèi)戰(zhàn)和第二次世界大戰(zhàn)的費(fèi)用分別占美國(guó)年度國(guó)民 生產(chǎn)總值的104%和103%,超出了它的年度 GDP。故選B。2. Ao推測(cè)計(jì)算題。從常識(shí)中可以知道， 1951年美國(guó)正處在朝鮮戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)之中

19、，而美國(guó)在朝鮮戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)的花費(fèi)為$335.9 billion ， 占它的年度GDP 的 15%。 據(jù)此可以計(jì)算出它1951 年的 GDP應(yīng)為 $2.239 trillion 。3. D 。事實(shí)確認(rèn)題。D 項(xiàng)明顯錯(cuò)誤。Mexican War 和 Spanish American War 兩場(chǎng)戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)的花費(fèi)占年度的GDP 比率相同，但并不等于兩場(chǎng)戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)的費(fèi)用是一樣的。高一英語(yǔ)閱讀理解試題（歷史類(lèi)）（1）Napoleon agreed to plans for a tunnel（ 隧道 ） under the English Channel in 1802.
