　　(2024·江蘇省名校高三聯考)In 1962, London Bridge was falling down. Built in 1831, the bridge couldn?t handle the ever-increasing flow of traffic across the Thames River. The British government decided to put the bridge up for sale, and Robert McCulloch, founder of Lake Havasu City, Arizona, submitted the winning bid of $ 2,460,000.　

??????? The ?bridge ?was ?taken ?down, ?and ?each ?stone ?was numbered. ?Everything was shipped 10,000 miles to Long Beach, California, and then trucked to Lake Havasu City. Reconstruction began ?on ?September 23, ?1968, ?with ?a ceremony including the Lord Mayor of London, who laid the cornerstone. On October 10, 1971, the bridge was rebuilt.To reach the bridge from I40, we recommend going south on Arizona Highway 95, then turn left (east) on Mesquite Avenue. Turn right on Lake Havasu Avenue N. and then right again on McCulloch Boulevard N. to drive over the bridge. Just after turning onto McCulloch Boulevard N． you’ll cross over Arizona Highway 95. ?Before you reach the actual London Bridge, it’s best to turn left into the small parking lot near London Bridge Resort. It’s an easy walk along the lower edge of the bridge to the promenade (散步) for photos.Once you walk west under the bridge, ?youll see a walkway which leads up to the London Bridge visitors? center where there are some historical photos and other information about the bridge and other attractions and places of interest within about a 100mile radius(半徑) of Lake Havasu City.

　　Lake Havasu City, which got its start as an Army Air Corps rest camp during World War II, now has over 1,000 businesses, two newspapers and a college. Remember that the next time a man comes up to you and offers to sell you a used bridge!

　　1．The reason why London Bridge was falling down is that ________.

　　A．the ships going under the bridge affected it greatly

　　B．its usage life was up to limit

　　C．the bridge could hardly support so many cars and trucks

　　D．the flow of the water in the Thames River did harm to it

　　2．Why was each stone numbered when the bridge was taken down?

　　A．They wanted to know how many stones were used.

　　B．They wanted to make sure how much each stone weighed.

　　C．They didn’t want to leave a single stone behind.

　　D．They wanted to put each stone in its original place when rebuilding it.

　　3．If people drive from Mesquite Avenue onto Lake Havasu Avenue N．， they should turn________.

　　A．east　B．west

　　C．south

　　D．north

　　4．The best place to park your car is________.

　　A．in the small parking lot

　　B．near the bridge

　　C．along the lower edge of the bridge

　　D．under London Bridge Resort

　　5．From the last sentence of the passage we can infer that________.

　　A．it is common for people to sell a used bridge

　　B．the author has some sense of humor

　　C．the author warns you not to buy a used bridge

　　D．a bridge bought can be used as a place of interest

　　The basics of infrastructure design

　　It is rightly pointed out by various intellectuals that the lifestyle of today is vastly different from that of the earlier times especially in terms of its pace. Lifestyle of today is remarkably fast paced and so in order to catch up with such a pace of life, the adoption of smart and time saving methods is of real significance. Well, the highways have certainly contributed in this direction and have made our lives a lot easier. Thanks to the modern flyovers and expressways, a single route can be accessed by twice the number of vehicles at the same time.

　　These facilities and supplies have made our lives double free but it needs to be realized that designing and constructing it is a very complex and a long process. You have to hold fast to the various rules of designing, government standards and most importantly, their safety and usability for the people. In the end it is a joint effort of a number of skilled engineers, scientists and statisticians. The material that is used in the construction is finalized after it undergoes certain tests for evaluating their qualities like hardness, roughness, thickness and all that is required.

　　Some of the points you have to take care of while laying an infrastructure design are as follows：

　　The basic layout (布局) of the road — At this level of planning, various civil engineers have meetings to figure out the basic requirements of the road like thickness of the asphalt (瀝青), the size of lanes, distance to be covered, degree of curves and much more. These fundamental points help them decide the further line of action.

　　The prior steps — Before any work is stated over the basic plan layout, there are various preparations to be made like placing road signs, the removal of trees that may prove to be dangerous in the event of a storm or other natural causes, the positioning of fire hydrants (消防栓) based on special designs to be useful when required, etc.

　　Inclusion of safety barriers — The safety barriers are placed on almost all roads and highways that are made over or near to rivers and cliffs. These barriers keep the vehicles from moving into the traffic in instances of accidents. These should also be designed in advance of placing them on a road and the design should be such that it makes minimum impact upon the people sitting in the car. These include supplies like side rails and light poles.

　　Asphalt pavement marking — It is the process of using a reflective material to indicate various important points on the road like lanes, turns, passing areas, two way and one way roads.

　　Though the smooth and wide highways constructed in big cities seem to be very attractive for the drivers, the ease of use is also the cause of accidents. Cars rushing at extremely high speeds and insecure change of lanes are a common sight on the highways. With the help of novel infrastructure design engineers, we can make the best possible use of highways. If these are designed properly and sign boards are placed at the required points, a number of road accidents can be avoided.

　　The basics of infrastructure design

　　Reason for construction of infrastructure Infrastructure must (1)________ the demands of today’s fast-paced lifestyle.

　　Challenges of design and (2)________ Various rules, standards, safety and usability should be taken into careful consideration.

　　Skilled engineers, scientists and statisticians have to work hard (3)________．Materials must be (4)________ to ensure their qualities.

　　Points to follow Various engineers meet to make sure about fundamental (5)________ of the road.

　　Things like (6)________trees that are potentially dangerous must be done before construction.

　　Safety barriers should be carefully (7)________ before being placed to prevent accidents.

　　Material that can (8)________ light should be used to marks on the pavement.

　　Possible problems and solutions Smooth and wide highways may (9)________accidents.

　　Highways should be designed properly and sign boards (10)________ at the required points.
