Ⅵ.阅读理解
Every year thousands of tourists visit Pompeii, Italy. They see the sights that Pompeii is famous for, its stadium(运动场)and theatres, its shops and restaurants. The tourists do not, however, see Pompeii's people. They do not see them because Pompeii has no people. No one has lived in Pompeii for almost 2,000 years.
Once, Pompeii was a busy city of 22, 000 people. It lay at the foot of Mount Vesuvius, a grass-covered volcano(火山). Mount Vesuvius had not erupted(喷发)for centuries, so the people of Pompeii felt safe. But they were not.
In August of AD 79, Mount Vesuvius erupted. The entire top of the mountain exploded, and a huge black cloud rose into the air. Soon stones and hot ash began to fall on Pompeii. When the eruption ended two days later, Pompeii was buried under 20 feet of stones and ashes. Almost all of its people were dead.
For centuries, Pompeii lay buried under stone and ash. Then, in the year 1861, an Italian scientist named Ginseppe began to uncover Pompeii. Slowly, carefully, Ginseppe and his men dug. The city looked almost the same as it had looked in AD 79. There were streets and fountains, houses and shops. There was a stadium with 20,000 seats. Perhaps the most important of all, there were everyday objects, which tell us a great deal about the people who lived in Pompeii. They found many glasses and jars and some dark blue colour in the bottom, so we know that the people of Pompeii liked wine. They liked bread too, as metal bread pans were in every bakery. In one bakery there were 81 round, flat loaves of bread—a type of bread that is still sold in Italy today. Tiny boxes filled with a dark, shiny powder tell us that women liked to wear eye-makeup.
Ginseppe has died, but his work continues. One-fourth has not been uncovered yet. Scientists are still digging, still making discoveries that draw the tourists to Pompeii.
1．Why do large numbers of people come to Pompeii each year?
A．To visit the volcano.
B．To shop and eat there.
C．To watch sports and plays.
D．To see how Pompeiians lived.
答案：D 由文章第一段可知，游客是来参观以前Pompeiians的生活情况，而现在在Pompeii已经没有人居住了。
2．Why had so many Pompeiians remained by volcanic Mount Vesuvius?
A．The city nearby offered all kinds of fun.
B．The area produced the finest wine in Italy.
C．Few people expected the volcano to erupt again.
D．The mountain was beautiful and covered with grass.
答案：C 由文章第二段最后两句话可知，人们认为Mount Vesuvius不会再喷发。
3．Why did the city uncovered look almost the same as it had looked in AD 79?
A．Because Ginseppe and his men dug it slowly and carefully.
B．Because the city was buried alive and remained untouched.
C．Because scientists successfully rebuilt the city with everyday objects.
D．Because nobody had lived in the city ever since the volcano erupted.
答案：B 由文章第三段可知火山爆发非常突然，当地人没有准备而被活埋并且直到1861年被发掘，以前没有被人动过，所以保持原貌。
4．What do we know about the Pompeiians who lived 2,000 years ago?
A．They lived more or less the same as Italians now do.
B．They liked women wearing all kinds of makeup.
C．They enjoyed a lazy life with drinking and eating.
D．They went back to Pompeii after the eruption in AD 79.
答案：A 由文章第四段可知发掘发现他们的生活与现在的意大利人有很多相似之处。
