单选题One answer to the question of land shortage was suggested by an organization some years ago. A city was to be built at sea, housing 30,000 people.
The suggestion was to shape the city like a harbor(港口). The outer wall of the harbor would stand on steel columns resting on the sea---bed. Naturally this could only be where the water was fairly shallow. The people would like to live in flats in the fifty----metre high outer wall. The flats would be all face inwards, and would be made of concrete(混泥土) and glass. The glass would be specially made and colored to control the heat and strong light from the sun. The planners called this man --- made harbor would be calm. On it would be floating islands carrying more building: a hospital, two theaters, museum, an art exhibition hall and a church. On one of the islands would be a special factory to take the salt out of sea water and turn it into fresh water.
People living in the city could move around on small boats driven by electricity, so there would be no air pollution from the burning of gas. There would be platforms outside the man wall for ships bringing supplies. People could also travel to the mainland by motorboat or water plane.

单选题 Hugh Troy, a well-known artist, was a very
interesting and clever person who spent most of his life playing tricks for the
joy of it. One winter, while a student at Cornell University in
New York, Troy got hold of a very old and ugly wastebasket with a real
rhinoceros (犀牛) foot as its base. He filled it with metal weights and tied 30
feet of clothes-line to either side. Later one night he and a friend carried it
out onto campus, pulling the lines straight between them. Every few feet they
would lower it into the snow, their own footprints so far away as to raise no
suspicions (怀疑). The next morning someone noticed the prints
and invited learned professors to come and have a look. Excitedly, they followed
the rhinoceros tracks. Then they were led onto the ice covering Beeb Lake, which
connected to where the school got its drinking water. There the tracks ended in
a huge hole. It was said that half the population of Cornell
stopped drinking tap water. Those who continued to drink it insisted that it
tasted like rhinoceros.

单选题What can be inferred about the baggage boys?
单选题I have mentioned that English surnames can be like Smith or Baker, indicating how the original bearer of the name earned his living, or like Johnson and Nixon, they can mean "son of" a particular person. Another group of surnames describes what the first person to bear the name looked like, or comments on some aspects of his personality. Brown is a typical example of such a name, indicating a man who had brown hair. In the Middle Ages, when surnames were becoming hereditary (世袭的), most Englishmen probably had fair hair, so the man with brown hair was unusual. Similar surnames are Grey, for someone whose hair was that color, and Read or Reed, for a red-head. A man who was noted for his great strength might be known simply as Strong. He could also be called Turnbull because of his ability to take a bull by the horns and roll it over. If he was both strong and courageous, then he might earn the right to be called Hardy. Names which are comments on someone's behavior include Wild and Savage. More complimentary are names like Goodfellow, for a popular man, and Jolly, for someone who laughed a great deal. The modern form of a surname may be rather misleading, having changed its spelling or its meaning. A man called Blackbird, for instance, had an ancestor with a black beard. Simple now suggests someone of limited wisdom, but it used to refer to an honest person.
