Traffic jam and cities, it seems, go hand in hand. Everyone complains about being stuck in traffic; but, like the weather, no one seems to do anything about it. In particular, traffic engineers, transportation planners, and public officials responsible for transportation systems in large cities are frequently criticized for failing to solve traffic jam.
But is traffic jam a sign of failure? Long queues at restaurants or theater box offices are seen as signs of success. Should transportation systems be viewed any differently? I think we should recognize that traffic jam is an unpreventable by-product of successful cities, and view the “traffic problem” in a different light.
Cities exist because they promote social interactions and economic transactions.
Traffic jam occurs where there are lots of people but limited spaces. Culturally and economically successful cities have the worst traffic problems, while decaying cities don’t have much traffic. New York and Los Angeles are America’s most crowded cities. But if you want access to major brokerage houses (經(jīng)紀(jì)行), you will find them easier to reach in crowded New York than in any other large cities. And if your firm needs access to post-production film editors or satellite-guidance engineers, you will reach them more quickly through the crowded freeways of LA than through less crowded roads elsewhere.
Despite traffic jam, a larger number and wider variety of social interactions and economic transactions can be made perfect in large, crowded cities than elsewhere. Seen in this light, traffic jam is an unfortunate consequence of prosperity, not a cause of economic decline and urban decay.
So while we can consider traffic jam as increasing costs on the areas of big cities, the costs of inaccessibility (交通不便) in uncrowded places are almost certainly greater.
There is no doubt that traffic jam brings the terrible economic and environmental damage in places like Bangkok, Jakarta, and Lagos. But mobility is far higher and traffic jam levels are far lower here in the US, even in our most crowded cities. That’s why, for now, we don’t see people and capital streaming out of San Francisco and Chicago, heading for cities like California, and Illinois.
【小題1】 We can conclude from the first paragraph that_______.

A．traffic jam and weather are the two factors preventing the development of the big city
B．traffic jam seems to be very difficult to deal with
C．if traffic engineers try their best, traffic jam can be solved
D．public officials are always criticized for misusing their power
【小題2】According to the passage, what’s the author’s opinion towards traffic jam？_____
A．In cities, traffic jam is unavoidable.
B．Traffic jam is both a sign of failure and a sign of success.
C．Traffic jam is the consequence of successful cities.
D．For a successful city, traffic jam is not unpreventable.
【小題3】By saying “decaying” (in Para. 4), the writer probably means_______.
A．decliningB．developing
C．rich and successfulD．strong and healthy
【小題4】 According to this article, which statement about “New York” and “Los Angeles” is true? _____
A. The traffic jam in the two cities has been worsened.
B. New York and Los Angeles are the most successful cities in the USA.
C. It is easier to reach major brokerage houses in the two cities than in other cities.
D. Despite the traffic jam in LA, you’ll find a satellite-guidance engineer more quickly there.
【小題5】What can we learn from the last paragraph? _______
A．California is as crowded and successful as San Francisco.
B．The traffic jam in San Francisco has resulted in the capital becoming empty.
C．The traffic jam level in Jakarta is lower than that in the US.
D．Traffic jam has caused terrible bad effects in cities such as Bangkok and Lagos.

科目：高中英語 來源：2013-2014學(xué)年河南省鄭州高三第一次質(zhì)量預(yù)測英語試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

My interest in Chinese food started years a90, when l was a young reporter for the Washington Post. Our office wasn’t far from Chinatown, where I found some very good Chinese restaurants．

The first time I ever ate Chinese food I loved it. I noticed the fresh taste of the meat and vegetables. When I learned more about the food, I began to understand why it has this special feature.

Many years ago, China had an energy crisis because it lost much of its wood due to over population and poor management of its forests. This loss was very bad for the country, of course, but it turned out to be very good for the food. Wood became very expensive and hard to get，so the Chinese had to either find a substitute for their valuable wood，or learn how to use it better. There weren’t any substitutes so people found ways to economize.

In order to economize in cookin9, they had to use very little wood. So they started cutting their meat and vegetables into small pieces before they put them in the hot oil．That way，the food cooked faster and they saved their fuel. The food prepared in this way kept its fresh flavor一and it's this flavor that attracts people from other countries to the art of Chinese cooking.

1.This text is mainly about________.

A. what caused Chinese food to taste fresh

B. how Chinese food is cooked in the US

C. when the author started to make Chinese food

D. why most foreigners like cooking Chinese food

2.The author mentioned the energy crisis to show________.

A. it is important to protect the forests

B. it is necessary to find substitutes for wood

C. why the Chinese changed their way of cooking

D. what problems a big population is causing China today

3.It can be inferred from the text that before the energy crisis Chinese food________.

A. was cooked in rather large pieces

B. was cooked in water but not oil

C. didn’t taste good

D. didn’t look fresh
