Ⅲ.阅读理解
Today，one can trace Venice's rich past from its buildings.Most cities can claim at least a handful of outstanding churches，palaces or houses of historical interest，and nearly everything is remarkable，from the magnificent Piazza San Marco (St.Mark's Square) and the palaces that line the Grand Canal to the centuries－old homes of simple fishermen.It would be easy to say that the city itself is an enormous museum if it were not for the fact that it is so obviously alive.
At first sight，Venice looks unbelievably permanent，an apparently complete Renaissance (文艺复兴) city so untouched by time that there seems no reason why it should not go on forever.Now the city is slowly sinking，as the clay on which it is built loses its elasticity (弹性) and the massive wooden piles rot (腐烂) away.Flooding，such a rare occurrence a hundred years ago now happens several times each winter.
The damage caused by the flooding is immense，and the fabric of the ancient buildings is now being further damaged by pollution from the mainland town as well as by the wash produced by the constantly increasing number of motor boats that speed up and down the canals.
A further threat to Venice comes from the Venetians themselves，some of whom are not particularly interested in preserving the city as one of the wonders of the world and would prefer to see it modernized.
“What better place is there for the meeting of dear friends? See how it glows with the advancing summer；how the sky and the sea and the rosy air and the marble of the palaces all glimmer and melt together.” Thus wrote the famous author Henry
James，of Venice，which provided the setting for his story The Aspern Papers，in the nineteenth century.
The splendor of Venice has captured the imagination of artists for centuries—and not just of the great painters and novelists.How tragic now that she is faced with the double threat of man and nature.Venice indeed will be lucky to survive.

【解析】细节理解题。

3. From the fourth paragraph，we know that ________.
A．Venetians are eager to modernize their city
B．Venetians value the Grand Canal
C．Venetians don't care about any threat to the Grand Canal
D．the threat of man is greater than the threat of nature
【解析】细节理解题。

根据第四段“A further threat to Venice comes from the Venetians themselves”可知，人为因素比自然因素对威尼斯造成的损坏更大，故选D。

【答案】 D
4．In the last paragraph，the writer ________.
A．is very confident that Venice will survive
B．is doubtful whether Venice will survive
C．thinks that Venice will have luck
D. is afraid that Venice will no longer attract artists and novelists
【解析】推理判断题。

根据最后一段“How tragic now that she is faced with the double threat of man and nature.Venice indeed will be lucky to survive.”可知，威尼斯面临着来自人类和自然的双重威胁，要想幸存下去将是一件碰运气的事，即可推断出作者对威尼斯的未来持怀疑态度，故选B。

【答案】 B。
