(釀酒廠的品酒室，古色古香的市中心和精品酒店使這座位于波特蘭西南部的城市成為一個(gè)只有成年人才能享受周末度假的自然目的地。)”可知，在俄勒岡州的麥克明維爾，你可以參觀葡萄酒廠的品酒室，這意味著你可以嘗試各種各樣的葡萄酒。故選A。【2題詳解】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Mandawa,India部分中“ThissmalltownwasapartoftheancientSilkRoadtradinggatewaybetweenChinaandtheMiddleEast,Today,it’sfilledwithfrescos,havelis(multistorybuildingswithcourtyards)andwallpaintingsthathavetransformeditintoanopenairartgallery.(這個(gè)小鎮(zhèn)是古代絲綢之路的一部分，是中國(guó)和中東之間的貿(mào)易門戶。今天，這里到處都是壁畫、帶有庭院的多層建筑和壁畫，這些壁畫已經(jīng)把它變成了一個(gè)露天藝術(shù)畫廊。)”可知，在此處可以欣賞到古代的多層建筑和壁畫，故此地適合喜歡古代藝術(shù)的人。故選B。【3題詳解】推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段中“Newstweek’s

Newsweek.(但是為什么White的里有Mike牙齒的x光片呢？他說(shuō)Mike的牙齒非常好，以至于他要了一張照片給自己的牙醫(yī)看。)”可知，White的里有Mike牙齒的x光片原因是White自己向Mike索要的。故選B?！?題詳解】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第八段中“WillWhitestillbesendingthecardsout?Unfortunately,theanswerisno.

(White還會(huì)寄賀卡嗎？不幸的是，答案是否定的。)”可知，White不會(huì)寄送這些卡片給任何人。故選D?！?題詳解】詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)劃線詞后面的內(nèi)容“withDefinitelyDannycallingtheaccidentalcarddesign“amazing”.(Danny稱這個(gè)意外的卡片設(shè)計(jì)“太棒了”。)”以及后文““Phenomenal,”agreedRobSheridan.(“太棒了，”RobSheridan表示贊同。)”可知，網(wǎng)友們對(duì)這張照片的評(píng)價(jià)是“太棒了”，因此可以推斷網(wǎng)友們認(rèn)為這張卡片是十分有趣的。故劃線詞與D選項(xiàng)“Funny(搞笑的)”為同義詞。故選D。CAbout50carsderailed(脫軌)inEastPalestine,Ohioatabout9p.m.ESTFridayasatrainwascarryingavarietyofproductsfromMadison,Illinois,toConway,Pennsylvania,railoperatorNorfolkSouthernsaidSaturday.Therewasnoimmediateinformationaboutwhatcausedthederailment,Noinjuriesordamagetostructureswerereported.“Thepostderailmentfirespannedaboutthelengthofthederailedtraincars”MichaelGraham,amemberoftheNationalTransportationSafetyBoard,toldreportersSaturdayevening.“Thefirehassincereducedinintensity,butremainsactiveandthetwomaintracksarestillblocked.”NorfolkSouthernsaid20ofthemorethan100carswereclassifiedascarryingdangerousmaterials“includingflammables,bustibles,orenvironmentalrisks.”Grahamsaid14carscarryingvinylchloride(氯乙烯)wereinvolvedinthederailment“andhavebeenexposedtofire,”andatleastone“isreleasingthecontentsofthecarthroughapressurereleasedeviceasdesigned.”“Atthistimeweareworkingtoconfirmwhichdangerousmaterialscars,ifany,havebeenbreached,”hesaid.TheEnvironmentalProtectionAgencyandNorfolkSouthernwerecontinuingtomonitorairquality,andinvestigatorswouldbegintheironscenework“oncethesceneissafeandsecure,”hesaid.Vinylchloride,usedtomakethepolyvinylchloridehardplasticresinusedinavarietyofplasticproducts,isassociatedwithincreasedriskoflivercancerandothercancers,accordingtothefederalgovernment’sNationalCancerInstitute.Federalofficialssaidtheywerealsoconcernedaboutotherpossiblydangerousmaterials.FireChiefKeithDrabicksaidofficialsweremostconcernedaboutthevinylchlorideandreferencedonecarcontainingthatchemicalbutsaidsafetyfeaturesonthatcarwerestillfunctioning.EmergencycrewswouldkeeptheirdistanceuntilNorfolkSouthernofficialstoldthemitwassafetoapproach,Drabicksaid.Firefighterswerepulledfromtheimmediateareaandunmannedstreamswereusedtoprotectsomeareasincludingbusinessesthatmightalsohavecontainedmaterialsofconcern,officialssaid.8.Whatdoweknowaboutthederailmentfromthefirsttwoparagraphs?A.Itwascausedbyaseverefire.
