八、阅读理解
As populations keep increasing in cities, city planners look under their feet for answers. With space in cities so limited, often the only choice for those who can afford to expand their property is to go underground.
One idea, which hasn’t been realized yet, is the ‘Earthscraper’ mentioned for Mexico City. This 65-storey inverted (倒置的) pyramid has been suggested as a way to provide office, shopping and living space without having to tear down the city’s historic buildings or break its 8-storey height requirement.
Many questions remain to be discussed, however, such as how you provide light, remove waste and protect people from fire or floods. Some of them have been answered with the construction (建设) of the Intercontinental Shanghai Wonderland hotel in China. This 336-room resort was built into the rock face of an 88m-deep, disused quarry (采石场) .
The island city-state of Singapore is also exploring its underground choices. Not only are its Jurong Rock Caverns being turned into an underground storage facility (装备) for the nation’s oil reserves, but there are also plans to build an ‘Underground Science City’ for 4,200 scientists to carry out research.
In New York, the Lowline Project is turning a disused subway station into a park. Expected to open in 2021, it uses a system of above-ground light-collection dishes to provide enough light to grow plants, trees and grass.
1．What’s the reason for people to explore the underground space
A．People who explore the underground space can afford to expand their property.
B．Scientists have new discoveries when they are exploring the underground space.
C．The population in cities is growing and the space in cities is too small to live in.
D．People explore the underground space because they want new places to live in.
2．Which is NOT the requirement of the buildings in Mexico
A．People cannot tear down the city’s historic buildings.
B．People should have enough living space in the city.
C．People can have buildings over the height of 65 storeys.
D．People should have buildings within the height requirement.
3．What does the word “them” refer to in Paragraph 3
A．questions B．light and waste C．people D．fire or floods
4．What can you infer from Paragraph 4
A．Singapore is building Jurong Rock Caverns and Underground Science City.
B．Singapore is planning its underground buildings because of its small size.
C．Singaporean scientists like underground buildings very much.
D．Jurong Rock Caverns is built to satisfy people’s shopping needs.
5．What is the best title for the passage
A．Cities are building wonderful hotels like Shanghai.
B．Cities are suffering from many problems.
C．Underground cities can grow plants and trees.
D．Underground cities will be the choice of future.
