Question

【題目】Modem zoos are different from those built fifty years ago.At that time zoos were places where people could go to see animals from many parts of the world.The animals lived in cages with iron bars（柵欄）.Although the zoo keepers took good care of them,many of the animals did not feel comfortable,and they often fell ill.

In modern zoos,people can see animals in more natural conditions.The animals are given more freedom in larger places so that they can live as they would in nature.Even the appearance of zoos has changed.Trees and grass grow in cages,and water flows through the places the animals live in.There are few bars;instead,there is often a deep ditch（溝）,filled with water,which surrounds a space where several sorts of animals live together as they would naturally.In an American zoo,the visitors can walk through a special huge cage that is filled with trees,some small animals and many birds,and large enough for the birds to live naturally.In a zoo in New York,with the use of special nights,people can observe certain animals that are active only at night,when most zoos are dosed.Some zoos have special places for visitors to watch animals that live in the desert or under water.

Modern zoos not only show animals to visitors,but also keep and save rare animals.For this reason,fifty years from now,the grandchildren of today's visitors will still be able to enjoy watching these animals.

【1】C

細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段“In modern zoos,people can see animals in more natural conditions.The animals are given more freedom in larger places so that they can live as they would in nature” 在現(xiàn)代動物園里，人們可以看到在自然狀態(tài)下的動物。動物有更多的自由，更大的地方，這樣它們就可以像在大自然一樣生活。由此可推出動物有更多的自由。故選C。

【2】D

　推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段的內(nèi)容可知在現(xiàn)代動物園里，人們可以在更自然的環(huán)境中看到動物，在較大程度上給予動物更多的自由，這樣它們就可以像大自然一樣生活。動物生活的籠子里有樹、草和流水。小動物可生活在一起，還給人們提供專門的地方來近距離地觀察動物。故人和動物感覺舒服些。故選D。

【3】B

　細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段“Some zoos have special places for visitors to watch animals that live in the desert or under water.” 有些動物園有專門的地方供游客觀賞生活在沙漠或水下的動物。而B. see animals which live in special conditions （看到生活在特殊環(huán)境中的動物）符合本題。故選B。

【4】A

主旨大意題。通讀全文可知本文主要講述了現(xiàn)代動物園給予動物更多的自由，它們就可以像在大自然里一樣生活。通過分析可知A符合題意。故選A。
