Almost 1,200 feet long, 154 feet wide and rising 213 feet above the water line, the Oasis of the Seas will be able to host 3,000 crew to service every passenger’s need．In addition to the size, the Oasis of the Seas will also be the first ship that attracts people by the cruise line’s new

neighborhood concept: 7 distinct themed areas, including Central Park, Boardwalk, the Royal Promenade, the Pool and Sports Zone, Vitality at Sea Spa and Fitness Center, Entertainment Place and Youth Zone．Of all these areas, the excellent zone will be “Central Park”．

Protected from the weather by a clear screen to let in the light, the Central Park area will be themed on Caribbean plants and leaves reflecting the area which the ship will eventually cruise in．And the park zone will have different restaurants, bars and boutique shops, bringing the idea of “floating city” to reality．

Answer 1

1--4    BACD  

解析:

1．B 细节理解题。由第二段的the Oasis of the Seas will also be the first ship可知，这是一条船。故选B。

2．A 推理判断题。由第一段的The “traveling city” is being built on dry-docks可知，这条船还没有建成。7 distinct themed areas are being built在船上，而不是港口；the “traveling city”是一条船，可带人们进行乘船旅游，而不是一个景点。由第二段的the Oasis of the Seas will be able to host 3,000 crew可知，此船可容纳3000船员，而不是说乘客的数量。

3．C 主旨大意题。从内容来看，第三段介绍了中心公园的主旨、公园区的建筑等。因此，C项更适合。A、B和D过于片面。

4．D 细节理解题。由第二段的In addition to the size, the Oasis of the Seas will also be the first ship that attracts people by．．．可知，A与B是正确的；第四段的the largest freshwater pool on any cruise liner．可知，C是正确的。
