Question

How does a place become a World Heritage Site? It takes a lot of people to decide.

1）If a country wants one of its places to be on the World Heritage List, it has to ask UNESCO. The place must be important and special. UNESCO put the Great Wall on the list in 1987 because, it said, it was a great part of Chinese culture and beautifully made to go with the land．When a country asks, it must also make a plan for taking care of the place.

2）The World Heritage Committee of UNESCO talks about different places and decides whether to put them on the list. The committee meets every June. Many experts help the committee to decide.

3）After a new place goes on the list, UNESCO gives money to help keep it looking good．If a place is in serious danger, it may be put on the List of World Heritage Sites in Danger. UNESCO gives special care and help to those places.

4）Countries have to give UNESCO regular reports about places on the list. If UNESCO thinks a country isn’t taking good enough care of a place, the site will be taken off the list.

Answer 1

【答案】

 

1.A

2.B

3.D

4.C

【解析】這是一篇文化類(lèi)短文。本文介紹的是要成為“世界遺產(chǎn)”之一，需要做哪些工作。

1.A 推理題。一個(gè)國(guó)家向聯(lián)合國(guó)申請(qǐng)到最后申請(qǐng)成功要進(jìn)行一系列的工作。因此可推測(cè)出“想要在‘世界遺產(chǎn)’中榜上有名可不輕易！”。

2.B 細(xì)節(jié)題。從短文的最后一段分析可得出。

3.D 主旨題。短文的開(kāi)頭已經(jīng)將本文的主題給出，下文是圍繞這個(gè)主題進(jìn)行展開(kāi)的。

4.C 推測(cè)題。使一個(gè)地方成為世界遺產(chǎn)的“目的”在短文中沒(méi)有明確表示，通過(guò)聯(lián)合國(guó)對(duì)一個(gè)國(guó)家的要求可推測(cè)出“其目的是使其得到更好的保護(hù)”。
