共用题干A Ride in a Cable-car
A ride in a cable-car is one of the exciting and enjoyable experiences a child can have.In
Switzerland,which is the home of the cable-car,it is used mostly to take tourists up the slope of a mountain,to a restaurant from which one can have a bird-eye view of the surrounding country, or to a top of a ski-run,from which,in winter,skiers glide down the snow covered the slope on skis .In Singapore,however,the cable-car takes one from the summit of a hill on the main island to a low hill on Sentosa,a resort island just off the southern coast.
The cable-car is really a carriage which hangs from a strong steel cable suspended in the air.
It moves along the cable with other cars on pulleys,the wheels of which are turned by electric motors. The cars are painted in eye-catching colours and spaced at regular intervals.Each car can seat up six persons.After the passengers have entered a car,they are locked in from outside by an attendant,they have no control over the movement of the car.
Before long,the passengers get a breath-taking view through the glass windows of the modern city,the bustling harbour,and the several islands off the coast. The car is suspended so high in the air that slips on the sea look like small boats,and boats like toys.On a clear day,both the sky above and the sea below look beautifully blue.
In contrast to the fast-moving traffic on the ground,the cars in the air move in a leisurely manner,allowing passengers more than enough time to take in the scenery during the brief trip to the island of Sentosa.After a few hours on Sentosa,it will be time again to take a cable-car back to Mount Faber. The return journey is no less exciting than the outward trip.The cable-car in Singapore______.A: takes visitors up to a mountain restaurantB: takes skiers to the top of a ski-runC: takes visitors to SentosaD: takes visitors to a high mountain
选项
The cable-car in Singapore______.
A: takes visitors up to a mountain restaurant
B: takes skiers to the top of a ski-run
C: takes visitors to Sentosa
D: takes visitors to a high mountain
答案
C
解析
选项A、B和D所涉及的情况都在瑞士,这在第一段可以看到。唯有C选项谈新加坡的情况,所以选项C是正确答案。
缆车是由马达带动的,没有驾驶员和轮子,也不受乘客控制。根据文中提示“The cable-car is really a carriage which hangs from a strong steel cable suspended in the air.”所以正确答案是A。
从上下来看,乘客所看到的惊险景色是因为“The car is suspended so high in the air that ships on the sea look like small boats , and boats like toys.”所以答案选B。
旅程虽短,但是“The cars in the air move in a leisurely manner, allowing passengers more than enough time to take in the scenery”,所以答案应该选A。
no less than意为“不比……少”,“和……一样”,所以正确答案应该选C。
