2^Washington,D.C.issonamedbecauseitissituatedintheStateofWashington.

A、Y

B、N

C、NG

标准答案：B

知识点解析：文中第一段就介绍了Washington,D.C.的地理位置，人们可能仅从其

名字就判定它是在华盛顿外，其实不然，华盛顿是在哥伦比亚地区。因此

Washington,D.C.被叫做这个名字不是因为它位于华盛顿州。

3、LikeNewYorkandLondon.Washington,D.C.hasgrownwithoutplansand

blueprints.

A、Y

B、N

C、NG

标准答案：B

知识点解析:由文中第二段的"It'snotacitythathasgrownupaccidentallyasmostbig

citieshavedone.Itwascarefullyplannedasthenation'scapitalbyFrench-man,Pierre

UEnfant.”可知，Washington,D.C.的形成是有规划、有设计蓝图的。因此，此种说

法是错误的。

4、ManyofthebuildingsinWashington,D.C.arewhiteand(heyarenotverytall.

A、Y

B、N

C、NG

标准答案：A

知识点解析：导游给游客们介绍几位著名的总统纪念碑时讲到，Jefferson,Lincoln

纪念馆，都是白色建筑，而且上文提到，华盛顿和纽约是两个完全不同的世界，它

们的建筑风格大不一样，在Washington,DC.没有高楼大厦。因此，此说法是正确

的。

5>ThePentagonistheU.S.militaryestablishment,wheremorethan35.000peopleare

nowemployed.

A、Y

B、N

C、NG

标准答案：C

知识点解析：Pentagon(五角大楼)是美国的军事机构，也就是“9.11事件”中被袭击

的大楼。在第二次世界大战中那里有35.000名工作人员，而并未说现在有那么多

工作人员。

6、Washington.D.C.remindsvisitorsof.

标准答案：anancientGreekcity。

知识点解析：文中第三段提到当你在华盛顿观光时，你会感觉到你在做梦，穿越时

空的界限回到了古希腊。许多漂亮的、闪耀着光芒的建筑都是古希腊贵族城堡的风

格。因此，可以说Washington,D.C.会让游客们想起古希腊这座城市。

7、Washington,D.C.isoftheU.S.

标准答案：ihepolilicalcenter。

知识点解析：根据常识得知，华盛顿是美国的首都，是美国的政治中心，而纽约是

其商业中心。而且文中第三段也讲到华盛顿的政府机构(governmentoffices)和美国

国会大厦(Capitol)。

8、Visitorsareallowed(o.

标准答案：entertheWhiteHouseo

知识点解析：由文中第八段的内容可知，白宫是允许游人进入的，它是对公众开放

的，因为它说"Thepublicisallowedinsideonguidedtours."而此题只是换了种说法。

9、is"needle-like".

标准答案：TheWashingtonMonumento

知识点解析：此空的解题关键是文中第三段的最后一句，"Thisis,ofcourse,the

highest,needle,intheworld!—theWashingtonMonument."

10、wouldremindthetouristsoftheuntimelydeathofamodemU.S.president.

标准答案：TheKennedyMemorial«

知识点解析：文章的第六段介绍了美国几位著名总统的纪念馆，在讲到肯尼迪总统

的纪念馆时，它说"HereaflamewhichWaslitonthedayofhisfuneralbumsandis

neverputout",所以theKennedyMemorial会让游客们想远过早去逝的美国总统肯

尼迪。

11、ChildrenvisitingWashingtonwouldprobablyshowthegreatestinterestin.

标准答案：ihedolphintheatre<,

知识点解析：由文章倒数第三段的末尾处得知，如果你想好玩或笑一下，就可以到

海豚馆看海豚表演。因为小孩们有好玩的天性，所以他们可能会对海豚馆表现出极

大的兴趣。
