    题目列表(包括答案和解析)

    There is a place on our earth where hot water and steam come up from under the ground．It is a large island in the Pacific Ocean．The island is North Island，in New Zealand．

    The planet on which we live is a ball of very hot rock．It is a good thing for us that the outside shell is cold．If it were hot，no one could live here．What if our earth were only as big as an egg? Then the outside part would be as deep as the egg's shell．

    The earth's shell has cracks in it in some places．In New Zealand this shell seems to have more cracks than in other places in the earth．There are spots where the ground is so hot that it burns the bottom of your shoes．In some places，hot water shoots into the air from time to time．At other points，you can see steam coming up from pools of hot water．

    The people who live in these places make use of the heat coming from inside the earth．

    Some of them cook in the hot pools They put food into a basket and place it in the water．Washing clothes is done in the same way．

    Many people bring the hot water from below the earth into their homes．They do this by putting a pipe（管子）a hundred feet or more into the ground．In this way they get hot water and steam for cooking and washing，and for healing their homes．

    For most of us，the heat under our feet is too far away to us．We must make our heat by burning coal，oil or gas．The people who get heat from inside the earth are lucky．It doesn’t take money to buy for coal，oil or gas．

    The world would be a very different place if someone hadn’t invented the lift. There would be few, if any, high-rise buildings because people would refuse to climb many stairs. By the time workers reached their offices on the top floors of a tower building, it would be time to go home – if they were not too tired for the long walk down！

    The first lift that we know about was used by the Greek scientist, Archimedes, in about 230 BC. It was a simple place that could be pulled up and down with a rope. A lift like this was used much later in the 12th century by priests who lived on top of a mountain at Metereo in Greece. Because they were afraid of killers, the priests had not built any stairs up the mountain. The only way up was by lift, which priests worked from the top of the mountain.
    A few hundred years later, a Frenchman, Villayer, invented a ‘flying chair’ which used a rope and a place. A number of rich people had these ‘flying chairs’ built in their homes, including Queen Anne of England in Windsor Castle and Louis XVI of France at Versailles. Unluckily, Louis’ daughter was badly hurt when using one of the chairs, and Villayer ran away, afraid that he would be punished.
    The main problem for lift engineers was that either humans or animals were needed to pull the ropes. This problem was not worked out until the discovery of steam power. But even steam powered lifts were not always safe because they also used ropes which sometimes broke. If the rope broke - which it sometimes did - the lift fell to the ground and people in it were killed or hurt. This problem worked out in 1854 when an American, Elisha Otis, invented something which stopped the lift from falling if the rope broke. At first Otis lifts were used only in factories, then in 1857 he built one in a large New York store. Now lifts use electric power and are completely safe. They also travel very quickly. Some lifts travel faster than 60 kilometers an hour.
    小题1:The writer thinks that lifts are important today because __________.
    A．people like playing on them
    B．they are the best way of using steam power
    C．we need them for tall buildings
    D．workers are lazy
    小题2:The 12th century priests had a simple lift instead of stairs because ___________.
    A．they thought the stairs were broken
    B．they liked having stairs and a lift
    C．the lived at the bottom of a mountain
    D．they were afraid of killers
    小题3:Villayer thought he would be punished because ____________.
    A．poor people could not afford his ‘flying chair
    B．someone was hurt in one of his ‘flying chairs’
    C．his ‘flying chair’ did not work at all
    D．he ran away with Louis XVI’s daughter
    小题4:Steam power meant that ________  .
    A．they did not need a living thing to pull the ropes
    B．Elisha Otis could invent a lift that would not fall
    C．the rope always broke
    D．they could use lifts in factories
