题目6 选择题
Graffiti painting is traditionally a daredevil pursuit. Teenagers dodge security guards to put their names on trains and buses. But over the past decade, graffiti has all but disappeared from Britain's cities. Between 2007 and 2012 the number of incidents of graffiti recorded by the British Transport Police fell by 63%. A survey by the Environment Ministry shows that fewer places are blighted by tags than ever. Graffiti are increasingly confined to sanctioned walls, such as the Stockwell ball courts. In time the practice may die out entirely.
The most obvious reason for the decline in tagging and train-painting is better policing. Numerous CCTV cameras mean it is harder to get away with painting illegally. And punishments are more severe. A generational shift is apparent, too. Fewer teenagers are getting into painting walls. They prefer to play with iPads and video games. Some have gone to art school and want to make money from their paintings. The Internet means that painters can win far more attention by posting pictures online than they can by breaking into a railway yard.
Taggers and graffiti artists mostly grew up in the 1980s and 1990s. Those men—and almost all are men—are now older and less willing to take risks. Graffiti may eventually disappear. But for now the hobby is almost respectable. The former graffiti artists paint abandoned warehouses at the weekend. It has become something to do on a Sunday afternoon—a slightly healthier alternative to sitting and watching football.

题目6
正误判断题
I've been living in the country for more than 10 years. It means quietness, privacy, harmony and peace for me.
Living in the country requires an active lifestyle. It involves activities like doing daily chores, preparing firewood for winter heating, feeding animals including pets and livestock, tending the garden, or securing fences, etc. For me, the most attractive activities are fishing, hunting and hiking. I enjoy seeing what nature has to offer everyday through a simple walk down the little trail, or a relaxing drive along the country road with patches of green grass ornamented with wildlife sightings of birds, moose, bears, deer, etc.
Living the country life helps us appreciate some of the simpler things, things that make us feel good about ourselves and the world. It may be just a get together on a Saturday at the local farmers market, or a project or a problem that the community might pull together to help solve. I have
participated in a few community projects, like dealing with out-of-control grass fires, a roof that collapsed from a large snow fall, or even helping a recent widow with fire wood for the winter. Sometimes I am surprised by how much benefit we receive from helping others and as for this community I can’t say enough.
I really enjoy living the country life. I know it’s not for everyone, but I know it's for me.
1. The author has lived in the countryside for more than a decade, and he/she loves living there.(请选一个答案)
2. Living in the country is not busy at all.(请选一个答案)
3. The author takes a walk or drives along country roads almost every day.(请选一个答案)
4. People living in the country usually go shopping every Saturday.(请选一个答案)
5. According to the author, nobody dislikes countryside life.(请选一个答案)
5. 答案:1. T 2. F 3. T 4. T 5. F 6. 解析:
7. 1. 细节题。文章首句提到作者住在乡村10年多了,亦即more than a decade。另外,从quietness, privacy, harmony and peace这些词可知,作者是喜欢乡村生活的。所以这句话是正确的。
8. 2. 推理题。第二段首句提到“在乡村生活需要一个积极的生活方式……需要做很多事情……”因此可以推论出这句话是错误的。
9. 3. 推理题。第二段末句提到“我每天通过小径散步和乡村兜风欣赏自然馈赠”。由此可以推理出该句是正确的。
10. 4. 推理题。第三段开头提到“住在乡村使我得以欣赏一些简单的事物,比如每周六农产品集市上的聚会”。get together意为“聚集、集会”。由此可知,该句是正确的。
11. 推理题。文章末尾提到“我知道(乡村生活)并不适合于每个人,但它适合我。”由此推知,该句(没有人不喜欢乡村生活)错误。
