【題目】閱讀理解
There is no better way to enjoy Scottish traditions than going fishing and tasting a little whisky(威士忌) at a quiet place like the Inverlochy Castle. When Queen Victoria visited there in 1873 she wrote in her diary, “I never saw a lovelier spot,” And she didn't even go fishing.
Scotland is not easily defined. In certain moments, this quiet land of lakes and grass mountains changes before your very eyes. When evening gently sweeps the hillside into orange, the rivers, teeming with fish, can turn into streams of gold. As you settle down with just a people and a basket on the bank of River Orchy, near the Inverlochy Castle, any frustration will float away as gently as the circling water. It's just you and purple, pink, white flowers, a perfect harmony. If you are a new comer to fishing, learning the basics from a fishing guide may leave you with a lifetime's fun. For many, fishing is more than a sport; it is an art.
Scotland offers interesting place where you can rest after a long day's fishing. Set against a wild mountain and hidden behind woodland, the beautiful Inverlochy Castle Hotel below the Nevis is a perfect place to see the beauty of Scotland's mountains. Ben Nevis is the highest of mountains, and reaching its 1342-metre top is a challenge. But it's not just what goes up that matters; what comes down is unique. More than 900 metres high, on the mountain's north face, lies an all-important source of pure water. Its name comes from the Gaelic language "usqueb" or "water of life"; and it is the single most important ingredient(原料) in Scotland's best known whisky.
（1）The story of Queen Victoria is to show that .
A.the queen is rich in tour experience
B.the Castle is a good place to go in Scotland
C.tasting whisky is better than going fishing
D.1873 is a special year for the queen
（2）How is Paragraph 2 mainly developed?
A.By giving descriptions.
B.By following time order.
C.By analyzing causes.
D.By making comparisons.
（3）What is Ben Nevis special for?
A.The Inverlochy Castle Hotel.
B.The beauty of its surroundings.
C.The water from the mountain.
D.The challenge up to its top.
（4）What is the main purpose of the passage?
A.To introduce Scottish traditions to tourists.
B.To show the attractions of Scotland to readers.
C.To explore geographical characteristics of Scotland.
D.To describe the pleasures of life in Scotland.

【答案】
（1）B
（2）A
（3）C
（4）B
【解析】本文是一篇應用文，介紹了蘇格蘭美麗的風景，尤其是其中的the Inverlochy Castle.和在Ben Nevi上釣魚等活動。
(1)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第一段中的“at a quiet place like the Inverlochy Castle. When Queen Victoria visited the castle in 1873, she wrote in her diary, ‘I never saw a lovelier spot ,’”首先說明Castle這是一個好地方，然后以女王為例更是為了說明這個地方很好。故B正確。
(2)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第二段中的”When evening gently sweeps the hillside into orange light, the rivers, teeming with fish, can turn into streams of gold . As you settle down with just a fishing pole and a basket on the bank of River Orchy, near the Inverlochy Castle , any frustration(煩惱) will float away as gently as the circling water“可知是通過描述美麗的景色來組織這一段落的。故A正確。
(3) 考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第三段中的”But it's not just what goes up matters; what comes down is unique. More than 900 metres high, on the mountain's north face, lies an all-important source of pure water.“可知這條河最大的特色是它的水。故選C。
(4) 考查主旨大意。本文主要描述的是蘇格蘭的美麗景色，目的是吸引游客到蘇格蘭去旅游觀光。故B正確。

【題目】Parents may think they’re smart about where they store medicines, but their kids are smarter. Nearly 60,000 young children are rushed to the hospital every year after getting into medicines not meant for them, according to a new report from Safe Kids Worldwide.

The report finds little connection between what parents know about storing medicines safely and what they actually do. Nine out of 10 parents know that medicines should be stored up and away and out of reach and sight, but 7 out of 10 of them admit not doing that. They leave medicines out on kitchen counters, sinks and sofas, believing babies and toddlers (學步的兒童) aren’t tall enough or strong enough to reach them. Unfortunately, they probably can. Children as young as a month have ended up in an emergency department because they have been poisoned by getting into a medicine that was left within reach.

Most poisonings related to medicines — particularly among babies and toddlers —occur within their home. Kids develop rapidly and they want to explore their environment. At certain ages they have a lot of activities using their hands and mouths, and so it’s very common for them to explore their environment and then try to taste what they find.

The new Safe Kids Worldwide report includes a survey of 2,000 parents with children under age 6. While the number of children visiting an emergency department for accidental poisonings has declined since the 2010 maximum, the decline has slowed in recent years.

Prescription and over-the-counter medicines cause the most severe poisonings, but vitamins and supplements (補給品) can also cause problems. There are steps families can take to lower the risk for an accidental medicine poisoning.

【1】Why are children poisoned according to the text?

A. Some of the medicines at home taste nice.

B. There is something poisonous in medicines.

C. Kids have easy access to medicines at home.

D. Kids are curious to explore the environment.

【2】What can we learn from the text?

A. Vitamins and supplements can do good to kids.

B. The team made a survey of 2,000 kids under age 6.

C. 600 parents surveyed could keep medicines properly.

D. Kids are usually smart at storing medicines at home.

【3】What is the author likely to write about after the last paragraph?

A. Factors contributing to the mistakes parents have made.

B. Tips that parents can follow to avoid a medicine poisoning.

C. Examples related to vitamin and supplement poisonings.

D. Impressive recovery results in helping patients.

【4】What could be the best title for the text?

A. Parents’ Casual Behavior Leads to Kids Poisoned

B. The Number of Kids Poisoned Has Declined Lately

C. Nearly 60,000 Children Are Poisoned by Medicines

D. Kids Are Facing the Risk of Being Poisoned at Home
