【解析】本文为应用文,文章主要介绍了加拿大国家美术馆的相关信息。
【1】细节理解题。根据文章directions: As you approach Sussex Drive, you will see the Chateau Laurier hotel on your left-hand side. Make a left turn onto Sus-sex Drive and continue until you see the Gallery on your left-hand side, at the corner of St. Patrick and Sussex.可知 从Chateau Laurier hotel往左转到Sussex Drive直走就可以看到Gallery。而ACD都比Chateau Laurier hotel要远。故选B。
【2】细节理解题。根据文章Closed Christmas Day, New Year’s Day and 2 January 2012 (Monday).可知A错误,圣诞节不开;根据◆ 1 May — 30 September Open daily from 10 am to 5 pm, Thursdays to 8 pm. ◆ 1 October — 30 April Open Tuesday to Sunday from 10 am to 5 pm; Thursdays until 8 pm. Closed Mondays.可知,B错误,没有开到晚上九点,D错误,10月1日至4月30日,星期一闭馆。所以C正确。
【3】细节理解题。根据文章Free admission Thursdays after 5 pm.可知,周四下午5点后免费,所以选A。
此题中的三个小题都属于细节题。其中第一题属于语义理解题型。根据原文Directions:
From Highway 417, take the Metcalfe exit (出口). Follow Metcalfe Street around the Museum of Nature and continue to the north until you reach the end of the street at Wellington. You will see Parliament Hill. Turn right onto Wellington Street and continue in the left-hand road until you reach Sussex Drive. As you approach Sussex Drive, you will see the Chateau Laurier hotel on your left-hand side. Make a left turn onto Sus-sex Drive and continue until you see the Gallery on your left-hand side,内容可知the Metcalfe exit (出口)----- the Museum of Nature----- Parliament Hill---- Chateau Laurier hotel---Gallery,所以Chateau Laurier hotel离画廊最近。
