【小題2】根據下文可知自然幫助人類發(fā)現(xiàn)了火,可知上文應該填E,指自然是人類的好朋友。
【小題3】上文講到閃電擊中了一片森林產生了火,所以此空是人們把一些火帶回家中,故選D。
【小題4】此段落講的是當時人們還不會生火,所以他們必須不能讓取回來的火滅掉,否則他們就得再等一年,所以選A。
【小題5】根據上文的描述現(xiàn)在人們取火非常容易,因為有了火柴,打火機以及不同種類的加熱器等,故選C。

Hanging Gardens of Babylon(巴比倫空中花園)

The Hanging Gardens of Babylon were built in the 7th century BC and are considered one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. The Hanging Gardens of Babylon were amazing not only because of their beauty, but also because of their location.
In the 7th century BC a king named Nebudchadnezzar II created the gardens as a sign of love for his wife, Amyitis. According to legend, Amyitis, the daughter of the king of the Medes, was homesick. She missed the green hills and valleys of her homeland.
Upon marrying Nebudchadnezzar II, Amyitis moved to the ancient chief city of Babylon. The area was in the Mesopotamian desert, and the climate there was totally different from where she had left. So the new queen was very sad about the flat and the sun-baked desert. To make Amyitis happier and more comfortable the king decided to build her a series of magnificent gardens.
Many think of the gardens as an otherworldly creation that hung in the air somehow. But experts agree that the gardens were actually built on a mountainside, rather than actually “hanging”.
The hanging Gardens of Babylon are famous. Stories of them spread throughout the ancient world, and ancient writers recorded a large number of descriptions of the gardens, but some wonder whether this paradise of the past ever existed. There are no historical records of it except stories. Whatever may happen, even the idea of the Hanging Gardens of Babylon is amazing. They were essentially impossible to create because of the climate, but they were kept in the minds of many as a botanical beauty created in the middle of unattractive desert scenery.
【小題1】Hanging Gardens of Babylon are considered one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, aren’t they?
【小題2】What makes the Hanging Gardens of Babylon so amazing and famous?
【小題3】Why did the king Nebudchadnezzar II create Hanging Gardens of Babylon?
【小題4】What made the Hanging Gardens of Babylon essentially impossible to create?
【小題5】According to the experts, were the Hanging Gardens of Babylon really hanging or built on a mountainside?
【小題6】Did Hanging Gardens of Babylon really exist? What makes you think so? (In no more than THREE sentences)
