公共英語三級閱讀理解特別訓(xùn)練

　　To swim across the English Channel takes at least nine hours. It's a hard work and it makes you short of breath. To fly over the Channel takes only twenty minutes (as long as you're not held up at the airport) , but it's an expensive way to travel.You can travel by hovercraft if you don't mind the noise, and that takes forty minutes. Otherwise you can go by boat, if you forget your sea-sickness ills. All these means of transport have their problems and the weary(不耐煩的) traveler often dreams of being able to drive to France in his own car." Not possible", you say, Well, wait a minute.People are once again considering the idea of a Channel tunnel or bridge.

　　This time, the Greater London Council is looking into the possibility of building a Channel link straight to London. A bridge would cost far more than a tunnel, but you would be able to go by rail or by car on a bridge, whereas a tunnel would provide ar all link only.

　　Why is this idea being discussed again? Is Britain becoming more conscious of the need for links with Europe as a result of joining the EEC(歐供體)? Well, perhaps.The main reason, though, is that a tunnel or bridge would reach the twenty square kilometers of London's disused dockland(船塢地). A link from London to the continent would stimulate trade and re-vitalize(使……重新有活力)the port, and would make London a main trading center in Europe.

　　答案解析：

　　1.【解析】C

　　推理判斷題�？捎门懦ǎ洪_篇第一句已清楚地說明游過英吉利海峽至少要九小時，所以A說少于四小時是不對的;第一段最后一句中有一個非常重要的詞，就是again.既然是again就說明建隧道、修大橋已不是新想法了，B也隨之被淘汰;根據(jù)文章第二段第一句，隧道可直達(dá)倫敦，不只到海岸線，D也排除了。而cC是正確的，游過去當(dāng)然要比坐船、乘飛機(jī)困難多了。

　　2.【解析】A

　　事實細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)文章第二段第二句，建隧道要比建大橋便宜得多。

　　3.【解析】B

　　事實細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)文章第二段第二句，隧道里只能供火車行走。

　　4.【解析】A

　　事實細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)文章第三段第四句，倫敦的船塢地都是disused(廢棄不用的')。

　　5.【解析】D

　　事實細(xì)節(jié)題。文章最后一段倒數(shù)第二句，這條路能夠激活貿(mào)易，使倫敦成為歐洲的一個商業(yè)中心，所以當(dāng)然會使倫敦繁榮起來。A顯然低估了這條通路的作用;B.C談到的作用都是負(fù)面的。
