camera.the weather should be more suitable，too.washington can get very hot and sticky in summertime.july and august are usually the warmest months.there are tour companies that will take you around

historycdiscuss how to keep world peacedview the beautiful scenery here解析细节理解题。由第三段“the purpose of the dumbarton oaks conference was to talk about ways to achieve a just and lasting peace in the world.”可知四国代表相聚的目的是商讨如何获取世界上公正的和长期的和平的方法，因此答案选c。答案c12according to the passage，what makes dumbarton oaks famous nowadays?athe dumbarton oaks conference.bthe beautiful scenery of the gardens.cthe peace in the gardens.dthe flowering roses in winter.解析细节理解题。由第四段第一句话“today，however，it is not the history but the beauty of the gardens at dumbarton oaks that draws our attention.”可知答案应选b。c和d项由文章第四段可知只是dumbarton oaks风景的一部分。答案b13what can we know from the passage?avisitors can only travel around washington on foot.bthere are fewer people visiting washington in the fall than in summer.cvisitors to dumbarton oaks often go swimming in the ornamental pool.ddumbarton oaks lies in the midwest of washington.解析细节理解题。由文中第一段可知b是正确的。从第二段内容可知a不正确；由文中第四段“a visitor has to resist the urge to jump in for a swim.”可知游客们并未在the ornamental pool中游泳，因此c项错误；由第四段“the gardens offer peace in the middle of a busy city.”可知d不正确，因此选b。答案b14how is the passage organized？(1the first paragraph；2the second paragraph；3the third paragraph；4the fourth paragraph)a1234 b.c12 d.解析结构理解题。文章第一段讲述的是秋天华盛顿的景象；第二段讲述的是参观华盛顿的交通方式；第三段具体讲述的是华盛顿一个地点的历史意义；第四段讲述的是这个地点的景色，三、四段是并列。因此选c。答案c15what does the word “thin” in the first paragraph probably mean?abecome smaller in shape.bbecome less thick.cbecome fewer in number.dbecome less strong.解析猜测词义题。根据本段的第四句和第五句可知：秋天的游客减少了。所以选c。a为“变瘦”；b为“变薄”；d为“变弱”，均不符合文章的意境。答案cbthe josephson institute，a los angelesbased ethics(伦理学)institute，surveyed 29,760 students at 100 high schools nationwide，both public and private.the survey found that 35% of boys and 26% of girls admitted stealing from a store within the past year and 64% have cheated on a test，which suggests that todays young people are less honest than previous generations.however，josephson addressed that todays youth are no less honest than previous generations.“the question is not whether things are worse，but whether they are bad enough to attract concern.this is not a time to complain but to take thoughtful，positive actions.”roberta gerold，superintendent(主管人)of the middle country school district and a leader of the campaign，said parents and school officials need to be more diligentfor example，emphasizing to students the distinctions between original and borrowed_work.“adults are not taking this very seriously，”he said.“the schools are not doing even the most moderate thing.”nijmie dzurinko，executive director of the philadelphia student union，said the findings were not at all reflective of the innercity students she works with as an advocate for better curriculum and school funding.“a lot of people like to blame societys problems on young people，without recognizing that young people arent making the decisions about whats happening in society.”riddile，who for four decades was a high school teacher，agreed that more pressure could lead to more cheating，yet he said，“i would take these students over other generations.i found them to be more responsive，more rewarding to work with.we have to create situations where its easy for kids to do the right things.we need to create classrooms where learning takes on more importance than having the right answer.”【解题导语】 美国研究机构调查发现，高中学生普遍存在偷窥和考试抄袭等诚信问题。对此，不同的社会人士发表了不同看法，并提出了解决问题的建议。16according to the first paragraph，we know
