Ⅳ.阅读理解(30分)

(A)

It was so dark outside the car window that it was hard to see anything.

“Can I have a carrot, Mum?” Riley asked.

“I dont have any carrots,” her mum said. “How about an apple?”

“No,” said Riley. “It has to be a carrot.”

“Why do you want a carrot?” asked her mum.

“You always say carrots help your eyes,” said Riley. “If I eat one now, it might help me see in the dark.”

Would eating a carrot really help Riley? What is special about carrots? A clue to what makes a carrot special is its color. Carrots are orange because they store beta-carotene(胡萝卜素). Beta-carotene is a way to talk about Vitamin A(维生素A). Your eyes need Vitamin A. It helps them work.

When light hits your eye, very small parts inside turn the light into messages. The messages go to your brain(脑), and then you know what yourre looking at. Your eye can only turn light into messages when it has a special chemical(化学物质). Thats where Vitamin A comes in. Your eyes use Vitamin A to make the special chemical. Every time your eye changes light into messages, a little bit of the chemical is used up. By the end of the day, youve looked at hundreds of things. That uses up a lot of the chemical. Your eyes need to make more.

What should you eat if you dont like carrots? Dont worry. Other fruits and vegetables have Vitamin A too. The secret is in their color. Most orange or red fruits store beta-carotene, or Vitamin A. Sweet potatoes, red peppers, mangoes(芒果) are a few that have the same orange secret. Can you think of any more?

A city without cars would be very strange, right? But Venice is such a city.

Venice is in the northeast of Italy. It wasnt built on land, like Beijing or Shanghai, but on more than 110 islands. Seawater is everywhere around the city.

Even so, travel isnt that difficult. The waterways have always been the best way to get around. There are 117 waterways and more than 400 bridges that can lead you where you want to go.

People in Venice move from place to place by boat. They like to enjoy the scenery and cool summer nights while taking boat trips. They can talk to other people as they go along.

Venice grew out of small islands in saltwater lakes when some Italians escaped from a war more than 1500 years ago, and built homes there.

Water makes the city special, but it is also a big problem.

Once, people used too much underground water. This made the city get lower little by little. Now the city has gone down by 23 centimeters.

Another problem is the rising seawater. The temperature has risen over the years. This has made the ice of the Arctic Ocean(北冰洋) melt (融化).

Every year, high waters hit the city in autumn and winter. When a lot of water comes, more than half of the city is underwater.

Scientists are trying different ways to stop the city from getting even lower.

2. Which is the most impossible way for people in Venice to get around in the passage? ____.

A. On foot B. By boat C. By car D. By bike

3. Why is Venice still getting lower and lower? ____.

A. Because too many people live there

B. Because the rising temperature has made the ice melt

C. Because lots of bridges have been built

D. Because the underground water is rising

4. What seasons are dangerous for Venice because of high waters? ____.

A. Summer and autumn B. Autumn and winter

C. Summer and winter D. Spring and winter

A. the waterways of Venice B. the history of Venice
