2、Architecturecouldpresentboththesocialstyleandculturalcharacteristic.

A、Y

B、N

C、NG

标准答案：A

知识点解析：文中第一•段提至…documentsofthehistoryofcultures,architectureis

asocialart”意为“美丽的建筑是历史文化的纪录，也是一种社会艺术”，因此，本题

的表达与文章内容相符。

3、Traditionaltechnologiesandmaterialshavebeenreplacedbyadvancedapparatusand

substancesofmodernsociety.

A、Y

B、N

C、NG

标准答案：B

知识点解析：文中第二段提到“Precast（预制的）concrete,forinstance,hasnotmade

brickoutofdate...thiscomplexapparatus（器械）restsonpreindustrialtraditionsinherited

fromthousandsofyears...”意为“预制的混凝土并没有使前头过时，复杂的器械也是

从几千年前未工业化的传统工具逐渐演变，改进得来的“，因此，可以推断出这一

说法与文章内容不符。

4、Wccanusetimberasthemostcrucialmaterialtopromotedesignandcrafts.

A、Y

B、N

C、NG

标准答案：C

知识点解析：文章第三段开头提到“使用合适的建筑材料可以促进工艺的发展及建

筑的形成。'‘最后一句又提到，“木材依然是一种主要的建筑材料。但我们不能理解

成使用木材是提高建筑没计和工艺的最好材料。“因此，这是一条未给出的信息。

B、N

C、NG

标准答案：C

知识点解析：文章第四段提到"Sloneandmarblewerechosenfbrimportant

B、N

C、NG

标准答案：B

知识点解析：文章笫五段提到“古代人会利用泥土本身，把它们做成砖头形状在太

知识点解析：文章第六段提到“TheRomansfoundnaturalcement...Intheearly19th

centurytrulywateqironfcementwasdeveloped."意为"罗马人最先发现/水泥...19

世纪初，防水的水泥也开始发展使用，19世纪初一句并没有明确提到是否是罗马

A、Y

B、N

C、NG

标准答案：B

知识点解析:文中第七段提到"Thesubsequentlargequantityofaluminumprovided

“以铝作为材料的建筑体表面重量轻易于维护，并不是指价格便宜，因此本题的说

法不符合文章内容。’’
