Walled Cities Of The World

walls were fortification (碉堡 ), a necessity throughout medieval eras for defense. They have been preserved as

historical monuments and popular tourist attractions in the modern time.

York, England

The city of York is a medieval city situated in the north of England. Historically, the city was ruled by the

Romans, Angles, and the Vikings before being incorporated as part of the Kingdom of England in 954. Located in

the city are walls built in 71 AD which have been restored and extended with time.

The city of Xian is one of the oldest cities in China. It prospered economically as the eastern last station of the

Silk Road. The existing walls were originally built in 770 BC and reconstructed in the 14th century under the Ming

Dynasty. The walls are well preserved and are a major tourist attraction in the city.

Quebec City, Canada

Quebec City was a colonial (殖民地的) town which was fortified by the settling Europeans. The walls began

to be built in 1608 under both British and French regimes ( 政权 ). A fort was constructed by the British as an

additional defensive measure and remains undamaged to date. The city’s fortifications were listed as a UNESCO

World Heritage Site in 1985.

Mexico City, Mexico

Historically, the City of Mexico gained importance as the Aztec Capital. The Spanish then drove out the

细节理解题。根据 York, England 部分中的 “ Located in the city are walls built in 71 AD which have been

restored and extended with time.(城中有建于公元 71 年的城墙，随着时间的推移，城墙得到了修复和扩

展。)”可知，英国的约克郡建于公元 71 年；根据 Xi’an, China 部分中的“The existing walls were originally

built in 770 BC and reconstructed in the 14th century under the Ming Dynasty.(现存的城墙最初建于公元前 770

年，在明朝时期于 14 世纪重建。)”可知，西安现存的城墙最初建于公元前 770 年；根据 Quebec City,

Canada 部分中的“The walls began to be built in 1608 under both British and French regimes (政权).(1608 年，

在英法两国的统治下，长城开始修建。)”可知，加拿大的魁北克城墙始建于 1608 年；根据 Mexico City,

Mexico 部分中的“The walls protecting the city were built in 1521.(保护这座城市的城墙建于 1521 年。)”可

项。

【2题详解】

细节理解题。根据 Quebec City, Canada 部分中的“Quebec City was a colonial (殖民地的) town which was

fortified by the settling Europeans.(魁北克城是一个殖民地城镇，由定居的欧洲人加强了防御。)”可知，魁

colonial-era buildings which together with the walls are major tourist attractions in the city.(墨西哥城也是许多殖

民时代建筑的所在地，这些建筑和城墙一起成为该市的主要旅游景点。)”可知，墨西哥城是许多殖民地时

代建筑的所在地，由此可知，这两座城市的共同点是他们曾经是其他国家的殖民地。故选 A项。

【3题详解】

推理判断题。根据首段中的“ There are numerous historical walled cities across the world, whose walls date

back several centuries.(世界上有许多历史悠久的城墙城市，它们的城墙可以追溯到几个世纪以前。 )”以及

下文中的“They have been preserved as historical monuments and popular tourist attractions in the modern time.

(它们在现代被保存为历史遗迹和热门旅游景点。)”可知，本文介绍的是有许多历史悠久的城墙城市，他

们被保存为历史遗迹和热门旅游景点，由此可知，本文应是出自于杂志的文化部分。故选 A项。

It was the winter when I taught in a small country school on the west coast of Vancouver Island. I had three

grades of little people in my class, all beaming with the desire to learn all they could. One little boy named David

from my grade one class wanted to learn more than all the others. His round swollen face would smile up at me,

reminding me over and over of his disease—leukemia. More often than not, he would be missing from our

classroom for rounds of treatments.

All of us were so pleased

then, to have that happy little boy with us for Christmas. We decorated our

classroom, practised for the concert, and prepared Christmas stories to share.

Two days before school let out for the three-week Christmas holiday, I read a story to the class. It was the

story of “The Littlest Angel”. This little angel had an awful time in heaven. He could not adjust to the routine. He

was always in trouble, bumping into other angels, tripping over clouds or dropping his halo. Nothing seemed to

make his time easier until one celestial day an archangel suggested that the little angel take some items with him.

Just a few things to remind him of his good old days, which might be of some help.

As I read the story, a complete silence fell over the class as each child became more involved in the plight of

the angel. Everyone was sympathetic for his misfortune, including David.

The following day during our regular show-and-tell time, holding a small wooden box, David began his

sharing, “This is my first tooth,” he explained. “This is a ribbon from my sister’s hair, and this is my puppy’s collar.

My dad gave me this old key. My mom says this big coin is for good luck.” Even before he told us the purpose of

the box, we all seemed to know. Shiny tears went dot-to-dot down the faces of the other children. The rest of the

day witnessed all of us carefully preparing items to fill David’s wooden box.

When the holidays came to a close, we all returned to our class—all except David. He had got a good chance

and left for a big city to get better treatment, clutching the wooden box that held his hope and memories, and ours.

What can we learn about David from the first paragraph?

A. His attractive smile impressed his teacher a lot.

B. Though seriously ill, he was passionate to learn.

C. His disease prevented him from going to school.

D. Though looking normal,he suffered from a fatal disease.

5. What does the underlined part “the plight” refer to?

A. The past time. B. The promising future.

C. The awful situation. D. The daily routine.
