Four Famous Castles In Britain
The country is abundant of castles, some ruined, and others still surviving today. They are a reminder of their either glorious or violent past. Read on for the one that interests you most.
Bodiam Castle, East Sussex
Built primarily for defence in the 14th century, the castle looks perfectly protected from the outside. You might think you could expect much of the same inside it, but sadly not. The war reduced the inside to ruins. The fairytale appearance of the castle standing within its broad moat (护城河) makes an indescribably spectacular picture.
Hever Castle, Kent
As a queen’s childhood home, it is the perfect picture-book castle. Its thick creeper-covered walls are surrounded by double channels. With large collections including portraits, paintings, furniture and treasures, it attracts a lot of tourists here. Among its collections are two private books signed by the queen herself, which are historically valuable.
Windsor Castle, Berkshire
If you want to have a better understanding of more than 900 years’ royal (王室的) life, then there really is no better place to visit than this splendid castle. It is the largest and oldest castle that is still occupied now in the world. In 1992, a fire swept through the castle, destroying 115 rooms. The repairing was completed five years later.
Tintagel Castle, Cornwall
Few places can compete with Tintagel Castle in romance and mystery. The ruins that you see today date from the 13th century, which, however, didn’t stop it to become a popular attraction. Due to the legend of King Arthur, for centuries the castle has fired writers’ and artists’ imaginations on how the heroic king’s life began here.
1. What do Bodiam Castle and Hever Castle have in common?
A. They are surrounded by water. B. They own many art collections.
C. They were built for defence. D. They are still lying in ruins
2. In which castle are there people living now?
A. Bodiam Castle, East Sussex.
B. Hever Castle, Kent.
C. Windsor Castle, Berkshire.
D. Tintagel Castle, Cornwall.
3. What is Tintagel Castle well-known for?
A. The childhood of a queen.
B. The legend of a great king.
C The outstanding art works.
D. The new image after repair.

【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据Windsor Castle的介绍中的第二句“It is the largest and oldest castle that is still occupied now in the world. (它是目前世界上仍有人居住的最大、最古老的城堡)”可知，它是世界上最大、最古老的城堡，而且现在还有人居住在这里。故选C项。
【3题详解】

B
The name England comes from the words “Angle land”. The Angles were people who came from northern Germany in the 5th and 6th centuries after the Romans had left. The French name for England is Angleterre, which also means “Angle land”. There were also invasions (侵略) of southern England by Saxons and Jutes (people from another part of northern Germany). English people are sometimes called Anglo－Saxons. The Celts who used to live in this area were forced to move back into Scotland, Ireland, Cornwall and into Western France (the area known as Brittany).
England at first became a series of kingdoms, the strongest of which was Wessex (the name comes from West－Saxon). The names of many of the areas in England come from this period—for example, the name Sussex comes from South－Saxon, Essex from East－Saxon, and East Anglia from East－Angle. The Vikings then came from Denmark, and later the Normans invaded from France. Eventually England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland were united, forming the United Kingdom.
The English language is the main language spoken throughout England, although there are many different accents. It can be difficult to know how to spell or to pronounce some English words, because the language has been influenced by Latin and Greek (languages used at the time of the Romans, and used in religion and education until recent times), German (the language of the Angles, Saxons and Jutes), French(the language of the Normans), Gaelic/Scots (Celtic languages) and Danish (the language of the Vikings).
There are now many people throughout the United Kingdom who speak a foreign language either as their first or second language, mainly due to immigration (移民) from Europe or the Commonwealth (countries which used to be part of the British Empire).
4. What's the first paragraph mainly about?
A. The origin of the name England.
B. The Celts used to live in England but left for some reason.
C. Southern England once was attacked by Saxons and Jutes.
D. Angles and Saxons came from different parts of northern Germany.
5. In the history of England, ________ once was the strongest kingdom.
A. Sussex B. Wessex
C. Essex D. East Anglia
6. What can we learn from the third paragraph?
A. English words are hard to spell and to pronounce.
B. England had been invaded by most of the countries of Europe.
C. The English language was influenced by several foreign languages.
D. It's hard for people who have different English accents to communicate.
7. Why do many people in the UK speak a foreign language nowadays?
A. Because they are required to learn a foreign language at school.
B. Because they plan to live outside the UK in the future.
C. Because they have moved from other countries.
D. Because they have worked in other countries.
【答案】4. A 5. B 6. C 7. C
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了英格兰的历史，包括英格兰名字的由来以及外来人口对英语语言的影响。
【4题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“The name England comes from the words “Angle land”. The Angles were people who came from northern Germany in the 5th and 6th centuries, after the Romans had left. The French name for England is Angleterre, which also means “Angle land”. (英格兰这个名字来源于“天使之地”这个词。盎格鲁人是5世纪和6世纪时罗马人离开后从德国北部来到这里的。英格兰的法语名字是Angleterre，意思是“天使之地”。)”可知第一段内容主要是介绍英国这个名字的由来。故选A项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“England at first became a series of kingdoms, the strongest of which was Wessex (the name comes from West－Saxon). (英格兰最初成为一系列王国，其中最强大的是威塞克斯(这个名字来自于西撒克逊)。)”可知威塞克斯曾是英格兰诸多王国中最强大的王国，故选B项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段内容“The English language is the main language spoken throughout England, although there are many different accents. It can be difficult to know how to spell or to pronounce some English words, because the language has been influenced by Latin and Greek (languages used at the time of the Romans, and used in religion and education until recent times), German (the language of the Angles, Saxons and Jutes), French(the language of the Normans), Gaelic/Scots (Celtic languages) and Danish (the language of the Vikings).(英语是整个英格兰的主要语言，尽管有许多不同的口音。有些英语单词很难拼写或发音，因为这种语言一直受到拉丁语和希腊语（罗马人时代使用的语言，直到最近也还一直用于宗教和教育）、德语（盎格鲁人、撒克逊人和朱特人的语言）、法语（诺曼人的语言）、盖尔语/苏格兰语（凯尔特语）的影响语言）和丹麦语（维京人的语言）的影响。”可知第三段主要介绍了英语受到了Latin,Greek,German, Gaelic, Scots, Danish等几种外国语言的影响，故选C项。
【7题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“There are now many people throughout the United Kingdom who speak a foreign language either as their first or second language, mainly due to immigration (移民) from Europe or the Commonwealth (countries which used to be part of the British Empire).(现在有很多人在英国讲一门外语作为第一或第二语言,主要是由于移民来自欧洲或英联邦(国家曾经是大英帝国的一部分)。)”可知，现在很多英国人都说外语是因为他们是从其他国家移民过来的。故选C项。
C
At a large forest park in eastern Beijing, 11 birds on the state -level protection list were recently released, which owed to Beijing’s big step in wildlife protection.
These birds had recovered after the Beijing Wildlife Rescue and Rehabilitation Center rescued and took care of them. “We will speed up our efforts to push the establishment of district-level wildlife rescue centers to guard the health of wildlife,” said Mr. Du, director of the center. The center was set up in 2001 and built a wildlife rescue base in the capital’s Shunyi District in 2005. Staff at the base have rescued and rehabilitated over 30,000 wild animals in total.
Wildlife protection has been strengthened in Beijing in recent years. On June 1, the city’s newly adopted regulation (法规) on wildlife protection took effect, introducing stricter and more concrete measures to protect the environment and wildlife. For example, the regulation states clearly that Beijing bans hunting throughout the year, compared with the previous regulation which bans hunting during the periods of March to May and September to November each year. The new regulation also gives more serious punishment for illegal hunters.
After years of monitoring, the species and quantity of wild animals in Beijing are continuously increasing, with the number of terrestrial spinal wild animals (陆地脊椎野生动物) growing from 461 species in 1994 to more than 500. The habitat of the endangered bird has expanded from Fangshan District to the whole city.
“The enforcement of the new regulation marked a new stage in Beijing’s wildlife protection work,” said Mr. Du.“We will step up the publicity of the regulation and raise citizens’ awareness of wildlife protection,” Du said. “In our protection of mountains, rivers, forests, farmlands, lakes and grasslands. we take into full consideration the requirements of ecological corridor construction (生态走廊建设), food- chain construction and wildlife and their habitat protection.”
8. What has the wildlife rescue base done?
A. It has sped up its efforts to recover the birds.
B. It has built a large forest park in eastern Beijing.
C. It has saved lots of wild animals in need of help.
D. It has established district-level wildlife rescue centers.
9. What is the effect of the new regulation?
A. It bans hunting in Beijing all the year round.
B. It sets up nationwide wildlife rescue centers.
C. It raises people’s awareness of wildlife protection.
D. It monitors the wildlife protection for a long time.
10. Which of the following statements did Mr. Du agree with?
A. Beijing will enter a new stage after taking the regulation.
B. Beijing citizens need to know more of the new regulation.
C. Food-chain construction needs the whole society’s attention.
D. The natural environmental conditions are not considered yet.
11. What could be the best title of the passage?
A. Wildlife and Their Habitat Protection in Beijing
B. Beijing’s Newly Adopted Regulation on Wildlife Protection
C. Beijing’s Big Progress in Wildlife Protection with New Regulation
D. The Establishment of Beijing Wildlife Rescue and Rehabilitation Center
【答案】8. C 9. A 10. B 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。主要介绍了北京出台的加大保护野生动物力度的新规定。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The center was set up in 2001 and built a wildlife rescue base in the capital’s Shunyi District in 2005. Staff at the base have rescued and rehabilitated over 30,000 wild animals in total.(该中心成立于2001年，并于2005年在首都顺义区建立了一个野生动物救援基地。该基地的工作人员共救助和恢复了3万多只野生动物。)”可知，野生动物救援基地的工作人员保护野生动物，并救治了很多有危险的动物，由此可知，野生动物救援基地救治很多处于危险中的野生动物。故选C项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“For example, the regulation states clearly that Beijing bans hunting throughout the year, compared with the previous regulation which bans hunting during the periods of March to May and September to November each year. The new regulation also gives more serious punishment for illegal hunters.(例如，该规定明确规定，北京全年禁止狩猎，而之前的规定仅在每年的3月至5月和9月至11月禁止狩猎。新规还对非法捕猎者给予了更严厉的惩罚。)”可知，新规禁止明确规定北京全年禁止狩猎，狩猎者受到严惩，由此可知，新规的影响是禁止北京全年狩猎。故选A项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据尾段中的““We will step up the publicity of the regulation and raise citizens’ awareness of wildlife protection, ” Du said.( 杜说:“我们将加强该规定的宣传，提高公民保护野生动物的意识。”。)”可知，进一步加大新规的宣传力度，说明北京市民对新规还不熟悉，由此可知，Mr. Du赞成“北京市民需要对新规多加了解”这一观点。故选B项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段中的“At a large forest park in eastern Beijing, 11 birds on the state -level protection list were recently released, which owed to Beijing’s big step in wildlife protection.(在北京东部的一个大型森林公园，最近公布了11种国家级保护名单上的鸟类，这归功于北京在野生动物保护方面迈出的一大步。)”可知，在北京加大野生动物保护力度的新规生效以来，取得了一定的成效，结合第三段中的“On June 1, the city’s newly adopted regulation (法规) on wildlife protection took effect, introducing stricter and more concrete measures to protect the environment and wildlife.(6月1日，我市新通过的野生动物保护条例生效，为保护环境和野生动物引入了更严格、更具体的措施。)”和最后一段中的““The enforcement of the new regulation marked a new stage in Beijing’s wildlife protection work,” said Mr. Du.(“新规定的实施标志着北京野生动物保护工作进入了一个新阶段，”杜先生说。)”以及全文对野生动物保护情况的介绍可知，北京制定新规加大保护野生动物保护的力度，所以该文的题目是“北京野生动物保护新规取得重大进展”既体现了文章的主题，也概括了文章的主要内容。故选C项。

For many kids, the Internet is at their fingertips. From computers to smartphones, a web of information is open to them. According to a new report, about three out of four kids aged 12 to 15 connect the Internet using a mobile device from time to time. Many younger kids are online too.
Julian Zeitlinger, 9, from New Jersey, uses his computer to watch videos and play games. To keep him safe online, his parents monitor his web use and discuss Internet safety with him. “I ask my parents whether something is nice or bad，” Julian says.
Mobile devices offer more ways than ever to share personal information. The information can be dangerous in the wrong hands.A study found that 62% of children aged 8 to 17 have had an unpleasant online experience.
Have you ever had to enter a parent's e－mail address when signing up for a website? That safety measure is there because of the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). The law says sites for kids under 13 cannot collect personal information, such as a phone number or full name, without a parent's permission.
This July, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) will update COPPA for the first time since the law was created in 1998 when there were no smart phones. The nature of the way kids get online has changed, FTC lawyer Phyllis Marcus said.
When the changes take effect, COPPA will apply to mobile devices and newer forms of advertising. It will expand what falls under “personal information” to include videos, photographs, and services that give users location.
COPPA doesn't cover everything that can go wrong online. That is why kids and parents need to know what to look out for and to stop and think before sharing information online.
“There is a misunderstanding that if a site is following COPPA, it is totally safe,” says privacy expert Shai Samet. He runs kidSAFE, which checks whether a site meets kidSAFE standards and is safe. “It's important that kids know how useful the Internet is but that it also can be dangerous if you are not careful.” he adds.
12. Julian's parents check his web use to make sure ________.
A. he doesn't watch too many videos B. he doesn't play computer games
C. he controls his online time D. he stays safe on the Internet
13. What's one of the changes with COPPA?
A. It broadens the concept of personal information.
B. It prevents users from making their location public.
C. It covers everything that goes wrong online.
D. It says no to any kind of advertising.
14. People often hold the wrong idea that ________.
A. formal websites are always safe B. the Internet is becoming safer and safer
C. COPPA can ensure their complete safety D. daily checks prevent future online problems
15. Why does the author write the passage?
A. To ask parents to look out for their kids. B. To talk about online safety for children.
C. To introduce a new law. D. To sell an online product.
【答案】12. D 13. A 14. C 15. B
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了儿童上网的安全问题及COPPA（儿童网络隐私保护法案）的成因、发展等特征。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中To keep him safe online, his parents monitor his web use and discuss Internet safety with him.可知为了保证他的网络安全，他的父母监视他的网络使用，并和他讨论网络安全问题。由此可知，Julian的父母是出于安全考虑才管控他上网的。故选D。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第六段中It will expand what falls under “personal information” to include videos, photographs, and services that give users location.可知它将扩大“个人信息”的范围，包括视频、照片和提供用户位置的服务。由此可知，COPPA的变化是把个人信息的范围拓展到多个方面。故选A。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“There is a misunderstanding that if a site is following COPPA, it is totally safe,” says privacy expert Shai Samet.可知隐私专家Shai Samet说：“有一种误解是，如果一个网站遵循COPPA，它就是完全安全的。”由此可推知，人们误以为COPPA能确保他们绝对的安全。故选C。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段For many kids, the Internet is at their fingertips. From computers to smartphones, a web of information is open to them. According to a new report, about three out of four kids aged 12 to 15 connect the Internet using a mobile device from time to time. Many younger kids are online too.可知对许多孩子来说，互联网触手可及。从电脑到智能手机，一个信息网络向他们开放。根据一份新的报告，12岁到15岁的孩子中，有四分之三的人会时不时地使用移动设备上网。许多更小的孩子也在上网。结合文章主要介绍了儿童上网的安全问题，以及COPPA为保护儿童安全上网所做的努力。由此可推知，作者写这篇文章是为了谈论儿童的网络安全。故选B。

【19题详解】
根据后文“The British use different words and pronounce words differently. Look around on the Internet or buy books about words and expressions used in Britain. (英国人使用不同的单词，发音也不同。在网上找找或者买一些关于英国使用的单词和表达的书。)”可知，此处是讲要适应英国的语言，所以选项B “习惯这种语言。”切合文意。故选B。
