The tiny town of Makanda, Illinois, has a population of only 600. But for the next two months, the citizens of Makanda will be preparing themselves for a large number of visitors that’ll come on August 21st this year. 【B1】______
For the first time in nearly 100 years, a total solar eclipse(日食)will cross the United States from coast to coast. This means that the sun and the moon will line up perfectly so that the moon completely covers the sun.【B2】______And the temperature will drop greatly. Even more amazing, rays of sunshine will be seen in a ring around the moon.
【B3】______Well, that’ s where the eclipse will be seen the longest, over two minutes. The path from which the eclipse will be seen goes across the continental United States, from Oregon to South Carolina. People who won’ t be right in the path will still be able to see a partial eclipse, with the moon covering part of the sun.
Meanwhile, Makanda is getting ready to welcome the eclipse-seekers, many of whom are scientists. Joe McFarland, Makanda’s "eclipse organizer" knows that the event------and the thousands of visitors that will come with it------might present difficulties for the tiny town. He said, "【B4】______We’re nervous that we’ re going to have crowd control issue (问题) , traffic control issue. We’ re trying to prepare for that. "
【B5】______A line has been painted straight through the town to show the eclipse’ s path. Many of Makanda’ s citizens are planning to open their homes or backyards to viewers.
[A] This is a lucky event.
[B] But again------why Makanda?
[C]Most of the hotels are already booked solid.
[D]The sky will turn dark in the middle of the day.
[E] Still, the town is looking forward to celebrating the exciting event.
[F]Why are people suddenly preparing to come to this quiet little town?
[G] McFarland will get the view of the eclipse right in his backyard. [br] 【B5】
选项
答案
E
解析
由文章第四段内容说小镇会面临的困难,第五段内容说人们的积极态度,由此可知此空起到了承上启下的作用,所以E项“Still,the town is looking forward to celebrating the exciting event.”最符合此处语境。故选E。
