Ⅰ.阅读理解(共8小题；每小题2.5分，满分20分)
A
(2025·1月八省联考)Jane Jacobs spent her working life advancing a distinct vision of the city — in particular focusing on what makes a successful urban community. At the heart of her vision is the idea that urban life should be an energetic and rich affair, whereby people are able to interact with one another in dense (稠密) and exciting urban environments. She prefers disorder to order, walking to driving, and diversity to uniformity.
For Jacobs, urban communities are organic beings that should be left to grow and change by themselves and not be subject to the grand plans of so-called experts and officials. The best judges of how a city should be — and how it should develop — are the local residents themselves. Jacobs argues that urban communities are best placed to understand how their city functions, because city life is created and sustained through their various interactions.
Jacobs notes that the built form of a city is crucial to the life of an urban community, especially the sidewalks. The streets in which people live should be a tight pattern of crossed sidewalks, which allow people to meet, talk, and get to know one another. Such a complex but ultimately enriching set of encounters helps individuals know their neighbours and neighbourhood better.
Diversity and mixed-use of space are also, for Jacobs, key elements of this urban form. The commercial, business, and residential elements of a city should not be separated out but instead be side by side, to allow for greater integration of people. There should also be a diversity of old and new buildings, and people's interactions should determine how buildings get used and reused.
Finally, urban communities grow better in places where a critical mass of people live, work, and interact. Such high-density spaces are, she feels, engines of creativity and vitality. They are also safe places to be, because the higher density means that there are more “eyes on the street”： shopkeepers and locals who know their area and maintain a close watch over the neighbourhood.
1．What does Jacobs find most important for a successful urban community？(　　)
A．Efficient public transport.
B．Strong interaction between people.
C．Uniform style of buildings.
D．A comparatively large population.
答案：B　
解析：细节理解题。根据文章第一段“At the heart of her vision is the idea that urban life should be an energetic and rich affair, whereby people are able to interact with one another in dense (稠密) and exciting urban environments.”可知，Jacobs认为对于一个成功的城市社区来说，人与人之间的强烈互动是最重要的。故选B。
2．Who does Jacobs think should make decisions on urban development？(　　)
A．Local residents. B．Government officials.
C．City planners. D．Construction workers.
答案：A　
解析：细节理解题。根据文章第二段“For Jacobs”以及“The best judges of how a city should be — and how it should develop — are the local residents themselves.”可知，Jacobs认为对城市发展做出决定的应该是当地居民。故选A。
3．How does Jacobs suggest sidewalks be built？(　　)
A．Lined with plants. B．Painted with clear signs.
C．Tightly connected. D．Convenient for the old.
答案：C　
解析：细节理解题。根据文章第三段“The streets in which people live should be a tight pattern of crossed sidewalks, which allow people to meet, talk, and get to know one another. Such a complex but ultimately enriching set of encounters helps individuals know their neighbours and neighbourhood better.”可知，Jacobs建议如何修建连接紧密的人行道。故选C。
4．According to Jacobs, the “eyes on the street” bring a sense of ________．(　　)
A．pride B．comfort C．security D．urgency
答案：C　
解析：推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“They are also safe places to be, because the higher density means that there are more ‘eyes on the street’： shopkeepers and locals who know their area and maintain a close watch over the neighbourhood.”可知，Jacobs认为，“街头的眼睛”给人带来一种安全的感觉。故选C。

(2025·赣州中学高三期中) There are functioning steam railways in other countries: tourists in France can go for a ride in Brittany; so can visitors travelling to the Dandenong Ranges in Australia.But no other country has a heritage railway sector anywhere near as energetic as the UK's, where more than 170 services cross around 600 miles of track and call at 460 stations.
Just a few years after the first of these railways opened at Talyllyn in north Wales, in 1951, a fictional Welsh steam engine became the main character in the children's television serial Ivor the Engine. On lines originally built for slate quarries (石板采石场), north Wales still has the biggest group of steam railways, but they exist in all four nations of the UK, typically operating seasonal timetables in tourist areas. These railways are living museums with stations decorated in period style. Some staff wear costumes too.
Up to 95% of the 18.5m journeys on heritage railways each year are taken by domestic tourists. They owe their popularity to a combination of nostalgia (怀旧), enjoyment of the countryside and enthusiasm for the old engines.
Railways are expensive to run, and the first steam preservation enthusiasts recognised that they would need volunteers to make their dream of a revival come true. This reliance on volunteers is partly due to cuts in budgets from local authorities and other funders. But heritage railways are a good example of what can be achieved by a combined paid and voluntary workforce. As well as the economic contribution that the railways make to rural areas, there is evidence that volunteering can have beneficial effects on people as well.
The railways will need to respond, like the rest of the society, to environmental policies. The destructive impact of greenhouse gases is an obvious challenge to a sector that trades on an image of coal-powered transport. Electric railway engines are being used for maintenance, to bring emissions down, and some railways are active in wildlife conservation. There will need to be further adaptation down the line. That the railways don't stand still has always been part of their appeal especially on rainy days in the summer holidays.
5．How are the UK's steam railways different from other countries'？(　　)
A．They are active across the countries.
B．They serve as tourist attractions.
C．They are mainly powered by steam.
D．They use small amounts of energy.
答案：A　
解析：细节理解题。根据文章第一段中“But no other country has a heritage railway sector anywhere near as energetic as the UK's, where more than 170 services cross around 600 miles of track and call at 460 stations.”可知，英国的蒸汽铁路在全国都很活跃。故选A。
6．Why does the author mention Ivor the Engine？(　　)
A．To spread knowledge of the classic serial.
B．To introduce the origin of steam engines.
C．To show the popularity of steam railways.
D．To share a childhood memory of travelling.
答案：C　
解析：推理判断题。根据文章第二段中“Just a few years after the first of these railways opened at Talyllyn in north Wales, in 1951, a fictional Welsh steam engine became the main character in the children's television serial Ivor the Engine. On lines originally built for slate quarries (石板采石场), north Wales still has the biggest group of steam railways.”可推知，作者提到Ivor the Engine是为了展示蒸汽铁路的受欢迎程度。故选C。
7．What can we infer from Paragraph 4？(　　)
A．Volunteers help to keep heritage railways alive.
B．Economic growth depends on individual efforts.
C．People can't afford to travel by heritage railway.
D．Local officials don't use old means of transport.
答案：A　
解析：推理判断题。根据文章第四段中“Railways are expensive to run, and the first steam preservation enthusiasts recognised that they would need volunteers to make their dream of a revival come true. This reliance on volunteers is partly due to cuts in budgets from local authorities and other funders.”可推知，志愿者帮助保持遗产铁路的活力。故选A。
8．What is the author's attitude towards heritage railways？(　　)
A．Indifferent. B．Doubtful. C．Appreciative. D．Negative.
答案：C　
解析：推理判断题。根据文章第二段中“These railways are living museums with stations decorated in period style.”和文章最后一段中“Electric railway engines are being used for maintenance, to bring emissions down, and some railways are active in wildlife conservation. There will need to be further adaptation down the line.”可推知，作者对遗产铁路持有赞赏的态度。故选C。
