参考答案和解析
正确答案:
1.C. 本题是要找出存在的问题。可在第一段和第二段开头找到答案,第一段主要讲在澳大利亚,主干道和高速干道交通所产生的噪音问题日益严重。第二段第一句话“The Roads and Traffic Authority (RTA) in Sydney faced a problem when it decided to proceed with the link between Concord Road at Rhodes and the F4 Freeway at Homebush (Country Road 5030) as the new arterial would deliver heavy traffic right past the backyards of suburban homes”, 更明确指出Problem 1就是是严重的交通压力给郊区居民带来的噪音污染,对应选项C。
2.E 本题是要找出导致上述问题产生的原因。根据顺序原则,在提到问题之后,第二段的后半部分“This was because the RTA had purchased and removed a number of houses to allow the new corridor to be built, exposing to road traffic noises houses which were once located in a quiet back street“,because一词是明显的原因词,因此该词后面的部分就是答案所在,即道路交通署在修路时买下并拆除了大量房屋,对应选项E。
3.H 本题是要找出解决此问题最初的建议。定位到原文第三段的第一句“Initially,the RTA had proposed to erect a new timber fence replacing the existing suburban fences, to act as a noise barrier”, 即建一道木栅栏代替现有的郊区栅栏作为隔音墙,对应选项H。
4.B. 本题是要找出上述解决建议存在的潜在问题。按照顺序应对应原文第三段第三句“However, RTA engineers have become more acutely aware of noise and the problems which arise if ineffective noise barriers are installed”, 在提出了解决方案后,随即说明工程师的一些担忧和潜在的问题,这些木栅栏隔音墙是否能起到预期的作用,即对木栅栏的隔音效果担忧,故答案为选项B。
5.G 本题属于推理题,是找出解决问题的步骤或程序。对应原文第四段“Residents of the area were fully briefed on the appearances, the performance and the benefits of various types of noise barriers. The majority opted for the Fanwall barrier, which also provides security advantages to the householders”意思是“附近居民认真听取了多种涉及隔音墙外观、性能和效果的简要报告,大多数人倾向于选择能够在隔音的同时还提供安全保护功能的扇形隔音墙。”, 从这句话可以推断出解决这些问题的步骤是和居民协商,对应G选项。
6.D 本题是要找出问题的最终解决方案。对应原文第四段及最后一段“the Fanwall noise barrier will be built in three stages commencing in mid August. Staging will enable further consultation with local residents and allow access to be maintained across the site via local roads” 也就是说,扇形隔音墙将在八月中旬分三个阶段建造。施工方将与当地居民进一步协商,在当地道路保持通畅的情况下进行施工。然而,最重要的是,在修路前将大幅度建造隔音墙,以减少施工噪音。由此可知,最终达成的方案是修建扇形隔音墙,并与居民进行进一步协商。
