Much of the real significance of railroads and highways is not in their direct physical effect on the scenery, but in the ways that they affect the surrounding community. The same is true of big solar pants and the power lines that will be laid down to move electricity around. The 19th century saw land grants（政府拨地）offered to railroad companies to build the transcontinental railroads ,leaving public land in between privately owned land . In much of the west ,some of the railroad sections were developed while others remained undeveloped ,and in both cases the 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 5 landownership has presented unique challenges to land management, with the completion or the interstate highway system ,many of the small towns which sprang up as railway stops and developed well ,have lost their lifeblood and died . Big solar plants and their power lines will also have effects far beyond their direct footprint in the west .this is not an argument against building then ,we need alternative energy badly .and to really take advantage of it we need to be able to move electricity around far more readily than we can now . So trade-offs will have to be made .some scenic sport will be sacrificed .some species (物种)will be forced to move ,or will be carefully moved to special accommodations ,deals will be struck to reduce the immediate effects . The lasting effects of these trade-offs are another matter .the 21st century development of the American west as an ideal place for alternative energy is going to throw off a lot of power and money to do a lot of good .but it is just as likely that they will be spent wastefully and will leave new problems behind, just like the railroad and the highway. The money set aside in negotiated trade –offs and the institution that control will shape the west far beyond the immediate footprint of power plants and transmission lines .so let’s remember the effects of the railroad and the highways as we construct these new power plants in the west . ( ) 1.What was the problem caused by the construction of the railways? A. small towns along the railways became abandoned. B. some railroad stops remained. C. land in the west was hard to manage. D. land grants went into private hands. ( ) 2. What is the major concern in the development of alternative energy according to the last two paragraphs? A. the transmission of power B. the use of money and power C. the conservation of solar energy D. the selection of an ideal place ( ) 3.What is the author’s attitude towards building solar plants? A. cautious B. approving C. doubtful D. disapproving ( ) 4.Which is the best title for the passage? A. how the railways have affected the west B. how solar energy could reshape the west 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 6 C. how the effects of power plants can be reduced D. how the problems of the highways have been settled 【文章大意】说明文。文章说明的是一种新的太阳能电力系统是如何或好或坏的影响美国西部地区的。 1.答案 C。细节理解题。由文章第二段 in both cases the landownership has presented unique challenges to land management ,with the completion or the interstate highway system 可知。 2.答案 B。细节理解题。由文章 alternative energy is going to throw off a lot of power and money to do a lot of good 和文章最后两段内容可以看出。 3.

In addition to writing interesting material, many famous writers, such as Edgar Allan Poe, were larger-than-life characters with personal histories that are as interesting to read as the stories they wrote. Poe’s rocky life included being driven off from the United States Military Academy at West Point in 1831 and an ongoing battle with alcohol. Yet, despite heavy gambling debts, poor health, and terrible unemployment, Poe managed to produce a body of popular works, including “The Raven” and “The Murders in the Rue Morgue.” Herman Melville, author of Moby Dick, once lived among the man-eaters in the Marquesas Islands and wrote unusual tales inspired by his years of service in the U.S. Navy. Dublin-born Oscar Wilde was noted for his charismatic personality, his outrageous lifestyle, and creating witty catchphrases such as, “Nothing succeeds like excess.” D.H. Lawrence wrote shameful novels that were often cut, and Anne Rice led a double life writing bestselling horrible novels under her real name and using “A.N. Roquelaure” for the lowbrow unhealthy novels she penned on the side. Nonconformist(不墨守成规的)author and naturalist Henry David Thoreau once fled to the woods and generated enough interesting material to fill his noted book Walden. Thoreau wrote on the issue 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 7 of passive resistance protest in his essay “Civil Disobedience” and served time in jail for refusing tax payments in protest of the United States government’s policy towards slavery. American short story writer O. Henry’s colorful life was ruined by tragic events, such as being accused and sentenced for stealing money from an Austin, Texas bank. Despite his success selling his short stories, O. Henry struggled financially and was nearly bankrupt when he died. As diverse as these famous authors’ backgrounds were, they all led unconventional lives while writing great literary works that will endure throughout the ages. The next time you read an interesting book, consider learning more about the author by reading his or her biography so you can learn about the unique life experiences that shaped his or her writing. 72.

He graduated from United States Military Academy at West Point in 1831. C. He once had heavy gambling debts and fell down with illness. D. He managed to produce popular works no matter how rocky his life was. 73. What can you infer from Para.2? A. D.H. Lawrence and Anne Rice once wrote similar type of novels. B. Anne Rice used a pen name because her novels were quite popular. C. Anne Rice used different names when she wrote bestselling novels. D. Henry David Thoreau enriched his books by living in the forests. 74. Which statement is TRUE according to the passage? A. Henry David Thoreau was passionately opposed to horrible events. B. Anne Rice always used a pen name to conceal her true identity. C. Herman Melville stayed with man-eaters during his naval service. D. O Henry’s life was colorful though he had lots of difficulties. 75. The passage mainly tells us that ______. A. many famous writers lived nontraditional lives B. most famous writers were usually troublemakers C. writers had to lead interesting lives to generate materials D. the biographies of famous writers are always inspirational 【参考答案】72—75 BACA 只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力，才能尝到成功的滋味。 8
