Answer 1

【答案】

【1】C

【2】C

【3】D

【4】B

【5】B

【解析】这篇短文给我们介绍了几个世界的奇观，包括埃及的金字塔、巴比伦空中花园和埃及的亚历山大灯塔。

【1】细节理解题。根据短文中The Pyramids of Egypt，The Hanging Gardens of Babylon以及The Lighthouse of Alexandria可知，这篇短文介绍了埃及的金字塔、巴比伦空中花园和亚历山大灯塔，一共三个世界奇迹，故应选C。

【2】细节理解题。这句话考查的是表示花费的句型，spend常用人来做主语，句型是sb. spends+时间或金钱+in doing sth.某人花费时间或金钱做某事；take常用it做形式主语，句型是It takes sb. +一段时间+to do sth.花费某人一段时间做某事。故C选项是正确的。

【3】细节理解题。根据短文中介绍空中花园的这一段Many parts of the garden were high up on large columns可知，花园的很多部分都是建在大的支柱上面。由此可知应选D。

【4】细节理解题。这句话中使用了短语one of…表示…之一，ancient wonders古代奇观，是一个名词短语。因此B选项是最准确的。

【5】推理判断题。根据短文中Although there are many different ideas about the garden，we are not sure whether this wonder ever existed可知，我们并不能确定空中花园这个奇迹是否存在过，故B选项是错误的。根据Workers used about 2.3 million blocks of stones to build it、The Lighthouse of Alexandria was designed about 2，000 years ago. It was in Egypt、It__was__one__of__the__ancient__wonders__of__the__world，about 135 metres high可知其他三个选项都是正确的。
