音乐之都维也纳

       奥地利首都维也纳是世界著名的音乐之都。它 (座、坐)落在阿尔卑斯山北麓的一个山(清、青)水秀、 风景如画的小盆地里,波光粼粼的多瑙河穿城而过。     

       维也纳是欧洲古典音乐的摇篮。18世纪以来,世界上许多著名的音乐家,如海顿、莫扎特、贝多芬、舒伯特、施特劳斯等,都在这里(度、渡)过大部分音乐生涯,谱写了许多优美的乐章。维也纳的博物馆里至今还陈列着他们的乐谱和手迹。     

       维也纳也是一座用音乐装饰起来的城市。在这儿,到处可以看到大音乐家们的铜像或大理石像。为 了纪念乐坛大师,维也纳的许多街道、公园、礼堂、剧院、会议大厅等,也多用音乐家的名字命名。就连王宫花园的花坪上,也用鲜花组成了一个巨大的音乐符号作为装饰。     

       维也纳几乎一天也离不开音乐。人们在漫步时,随时可以听到那优雅轻快的华尔兹圆舞曲。夏天的夜晚,公园里还举行露天音乐演奏会,悠扬的乐声掺和着花草的芬芳,在晚风中飘溢、回荡。维也纳的许多家庭有音乐演奏的传统,尤其是在合家欢乐的时候,优美的旋律传遍街头巷尾。更有趣的是,在举行集会、庆典甚至政府会议时,会前会后也要各奏一曲古典音乐,这几乎成了(贯、惯)例。 

1.选择文中括号内恰当的字,打上“√”。 

2.填一填。  

      (    )的摇篮    (    )的乐章

      (    )的乐声    (    )的舞曲 

3.文中画横线的句子中,“这”指的是什么?

                                                                                                                                         

4.请把文章的中心句画上“       ”。

5.文章从哪三个方面表现了维也纳是音乐之都?   

      ①                                                                                              

      ②                                                                                              

      ③                                                                                              

答案

1.坐  清   度   惯    

2.古典音乐   优美   悠扬   优雅轻快

3.“这”是指“在举行集会、庆典甚至政府会议时,会前会后也要演奏一曲古典音乐”。    

4.文章的第一句话。    

5.①维也纳是欧洲古典音乐的摇篮;

     ②维也纳是一座用音乐装饰起来的城市;

     ③维也纳几乎一天也离不开音乐。

Against the supposition(假设)that forest fires in Alaska, Canada and Siberia warm the climate, scientists have discovered that cooling may occur in areas where burnt trees allow more snow to mirror more sunlight into space.

This finding suggests that taking steps to prevent northern forest to limit the release of greenhouse gases may warm the climate in northern regions. Usually large fires destroyed forests in these areas over the past decade. Scientists predict that with climate warming, fires may occur more frequently over next several centuries as a result of a longer fire season. Sunlight taken in by the earth tends to cause warming, while heat mirrored back into space tends to cause cooling.

This is the first study to analyze all aspects of how northern fires influence climate. Earlier studies by other scientists have suggested that fire in northern regions speed up climate warming because greenhouse gases from burning trees and plants are released into the atmosphere and thus trap heat.

Scientists found that right after the fire, large amounts of greenhouse gases entered the atmosphere and caused warming. Ozone(臭氧)levels increased, and ash from the fire fell on far-off sea ice, darkening the surface and causing more radiation from the sun to be taken in. The following spring, however, the land within the area of the fire was brighter than before the fire, because fewer trees covered the ground. Snow on the ground mirrored more sunlight back into space, leading to cooling.

“We need to find out all possible ways to reduce the growth of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.” Scientists tracked the change in amount of radiation entering and leaving the climate system as a result of the fire, and found a measurement closely related to the global air temperature. Typically, fire in northern regions occurs in the same area every 80 to 150 years. Scientists, however, found that when fire occurs more frequently, more radiation is lost from the earth and cooling results. Specifically, they determined when fire returns 20 years earlier than predicated, 0.5 watts per square meter of area burned are soaked up by the earth from greenhouse gases, but 0.9 watts per square meter will be sent back into space. The net effect is cooling. Watts are used to measure the rate at which energy is gained or lost from the earth.

D.ashes from the fire fall on the ice surface and take in more radiation from the sun小题3:Earlier studies about northern forest fires _________.

A.analyze all aspects of how northern fires influence climate

B.indicate that forest fires will pollute the atmosphere

C.suggest that people should take measures to protect environment

D.suggest that the fires will speed up climate warming小题4:The underlined part “soaked up” in the last paragraph most probably means ________.

B.absorbed

C.created

D.distributed小题5:From the passage we can draw a conclusion that forest fires in Alaska, Canada and Siberia may __________.

A.warm the climate as the supposition goes

B.allow more snow to reflect more sunlight into space and thus cool the climate

C.destroy large areas of forests and pollute the far-off sea ice
