B Edinburgh is the capital city of Scotland, and has long been a favorite destination of tourists from all over the world, as well as an important cultural and political center.

With its museums, shops, wonderful historic castle, and many pubs and restaurants, there are many things for visitors to enjoy all year round.And of course, as it is in Scotland, there are a wide range of whiskies to try!

However, there is more to Edinburgh than historic monuments and tourism.Each year, the Edinburgh Festival takes place in the city.In late summer, for three weeks, the festival presents classical music, theater, opera and dance at six major theaters and concert halls—and several smaller ones—throughout the city.Whatever your cultural tastes, you are sure to find something to enjoy.、

Local talent is always represented at the Edinburgh Festival giving Scottish composers and playwrights the opportunity to showcase their work and gain recognition from a wider audience.

In addition, orchestras (管弦乐队) and theater companies come from all over the world to perform at the prestigious (有名望的) festival.Last year saw the arrival of orchestras from the United States and Germany.

The festival has now become an important part of Scotland’s economy as well as its culture.Last year’s festival generated over £130 million expenditure in Edinburgh alone, and across Scotland nearly 2,900 jobs exist as a direct result of the festival.

The festival is so popular that it has become, in some ways, a victim of its own success.The huge interest in performing there led to the setting up of a rival (竞争的) festival, the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.Fortunately, demand for live entertainment during the summer is so great that both festivals continue to thrive (兴旺).

The Fringe tends to feature mostly comedy and experimental works.Yet it can lead to great things ---- many famous and successful comedians and artists, such as Rowan Atkinson, better known as TV’s Mr.Bean, started their careers in small venues at the Fringe.

1.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?

A.The festival is economically important for Scotland.

B.Many people in Scotland rely on the festival for their jobs.

C.Local performers challenge bands from all over the world.

D.One is sure to find something to enjoy during the festival.

2.What does the underlined part “a victim of its own success” most probably mean?

A.A prestigious band for its successful performance.

B.An unsuccessful performance without good preparation.

C.An orchestra from another country performing in Edinburgh.

D.A festival that causes trouble for itself because of great success.

3.What we can learn from the passage is that ________.

A.the Edinburgh Festival attracts audience across the world

B.both festivals win good recognition from a wide audience

C.the Fringe was set up in the hope of accepting the challenge

D.many comedians and artists took off overnight at the Fringe

4.Which of the following can be the best title for this passage?

Think about the longest elevator ride that you’ve ever taken. Whether you rose five or 100 floors, it probably took less than a few minutes. Now imagine riding in an elevator higher and higher as it climbs for nearly a day. When you reach the top floor, prepare for views that are really out of this world. You’ll be in space!

Space elevators might sound like a crazy idea, but they’re something scientists have been working on for decades.

At the moment, riding in a capsule is the only way ordinary people can get to and from space. But those rides are very expensive---about $ 25 million per person per flight. Now scientists are making efforts to reduce the expense of those rides.

Researchers are still figuring out the details about how a space elevator might work. One idea is stretching a very long cable — more than 37,000 kilometers — up to space from the earth’s equator (赤道). Objects in space above the equator orbit (绕……的轨道飞行) the earth at the same speed that our planet turns. A weight on the end of the cable would stretch it tight. An elevator tied to the cable could use it to climb up and down.

The only problem is that besides being long, this cable must also be very strong. Storms, including hurricanes might break it. One way to solve this problem is to stretch the cable from the moon instead of from the earth. Airplanes designed to climb higher than a typical jet might take off from the earth and link up with the cable, which would be held in place by the pull of gravity from the earth. An elevator car waiting there would then take riders the rest of the way to the moon. Fueled by solar power, the elevator could transport people and materials without much expense or effort per ride.

1.The first paragraph is presented by _____.

A. asking questions

B. analyzing causes

C. giving an example

D. making a comparison

2.Why have scientists been working on space elevators?

A. To make trips to space cheaper.

B. To help astronauts do research in space.

C. To find a more convenient way to the moon.

D. To prove an assumption which seems crazy.

3. The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refers to _____.

A. the weight

B. the cable

C. an object in space

D. the equator

4. What may make the cable stay in place on the moon?

A. The elevator car on the moon.

B. The elevator fastened to the cable.

C. The pull of gravity from the earth.

D. The speed of the moon orbiting the earth.
