D.Swimmingnearthebeach.語篇解讀:本文主要介紹了Achill島消失的海灘時(shí)隔三十多年再次出現(xiàn)的事件。答案及剖析:4.C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段中的“However,sinceAprilin2017,thesmallislandofjust2,700residents(居民)hasgainedworldwidefamethankstothemagicalreturnofabeachthatwaswashedawayoverthreedecadesago”可知,消失了三十多年的海灘的回歸使得Achill島引起了全世界的關(guān)注。5.A細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中的“Thearea’stourismindustryslowlydeclined,andthehandfulofbeachsidehotels,pubs,andrestaurantsgraduallyclosedaswell”可知,隨著海灘的消失,在過去三十多年里Dooagh地區(qū)的旅游業(yè)逐漸衰落。6.C詞義猜測題。根據(jù)劃線詞所在句中的“tendaytideblanketedthebarren300meterlongrockbeachwithhundredsoftonsofsoftgoldensand”可知,由于潮水的力量,300米長的巖石海灘被松軟的金沙覆蓋了。劃線詞修飾巖石海灘,結(jié)合文章內(nèi)容可知,海灘消失之后,三十多年來巖石海灘表面什么都沒有,所以劃線詞與bare同義,意為“空的,荒蕪的”。7.D推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段中的“Heinsteadremendsvisitorsenjoythesoftsandandleavetheswimmingtothedolphinsthatfrequentthearea”可知,SeanMolloy建議游客享受松軟的沙子,把游泳讓給海豚,即他建議游客不要在海灘附近游泳。Ⅱ.語法填空EileenTaylorhadsomethingsweetonhermindinthedrivethrough
