题目

The design of the Sydney Opera House has been taken as a myth because ______.

A.it was the workpiece of the famous architect

B.it met most of the rules for architectural design at that time

C.the design project suggested by Utzon was unbuildable

D.it was designed by an unknown architect and was thought unbuildable at that time

参考答案和解析
正确答案:D
解析:细节题。由题干myth定位到第三段第二句,这里指出悉尼歌剧院成为神话的原因为the unknown architect,ignored most of the rules以及the design was unbuildable。D是对第一个和第三个原因的总结,为正确答案。A中的famous architect与原文unknown architect不符;B中的meet与原文中的ignore冲突;C只是片面说法。

第6题:

It is pretty hopeless as a venue for opera, it took years to build, its architect was forced to resign and it was never properly finished inside. None of this matters. The Sydney Opera House, by the reclusive Danish architect Jorn Utzon, is the mother and father of all modern landmark buildings. It has come to define not only a city, but an entire nation and continent.

Beyond that, it is a global expression of cultural modernity. Everyone in the world with media access knows what the Sydney Opera House looks like. First designed in 1956 and finally declared completed in 1973, the opera house was the single best known modern building in the world until the arrival of Frank Gehry's equally extraordinary Bilbao Guggenheim in 1997. But it will outlive the Guggenheim as an international architectural icon--because it did all the difficult work tint.

In the pantheon(万神殿) of classic modern buildings, Utzon's creation has the status of myth. The myth states that the unknown architect, then in his thirties, submitted rough sketches to the competition judges, that he ignored most of the rules, that his as only selected after being plucked at the last moment from the rejected pile by one of the judges, and that the design was unbuildable.

But Sydney is remarkable for another reason: it is a complete one-off. It does not fit into any stylistic or chronological category. None of Utzon's other buildings--churches, government departments, house. looks anything like it, and architects today who try to copy his concept always end up looking very second-rate indeed. It is "modern", certainly, but it is an expressive modernism that was quite at odds with the rectilinear(直线的) "international style" of its time. It has more in common with the work of the American genius Frank Uloyd Wright, for whom Utzon worked briefly. Of course its location is an enormous help, sitting as it does on a promontory with water on three sides and the famous Sydney Harbor Bridge as a picture-postcard backdrop. But Utzon masterly exploited the site as nobody else could.

Utzon left Australia in high indignation in 1966, never to return, before he could finish designing the interiors.

As with Sir Christopher Wren at St Paul's Cathedral, Utzon was humiliated and removed from overseeing the final stages of his masterwork. But for all his manifold difficulties, which other contemporary architect can claim an equivalent achievement? The Sydney Opera House showed us that anything is possible, and it demonstrated that sheer, seductive beauty for its own sake is nothing to be ashamed of.

It can be inferred from the passage that ______.

A.the Danish architect Join Utzon totally failed in his design of Sydney Opera House and was forced to resign

B.the Danish architect Jorn Utzon has been made known as the founder of all the modern landmark buildings, in spite of his part failure in his design of Sydney Opera House

C.Sydney Opera House is hopelessly ugly and has never been finished inside

D.Sydney Opera House is the single best known modern building in the world up to now


正确答案:B
解析:推断题。第一段提到“该剧院作为一个歌剧院,花了好多年才建成,其设计者被迫辞职,内部装修也迟迟未能完工,但所有这些都无关紧要……,由丹麦设计家约恩·乌特松本人设计的悉尼歌剧院依然是现代景观建筑的首创……”,这与B的意思吻合。

第7题:

In this passage, the author's tone and attitude towards the design and accomplishment of the Sydney Opera House is ______.

A.highly critical

B.cold and objective

C.sympathetic yet reserved

D.positive and appreciative


正确答案:D
解析:态度题。从全文看,作者对丹麦设计家约恩·乌特松在设计悉尼歌剧院中的独创思想是很肯定的,言辞话语之间充满着敬佩之情,称他为the mother and father of all modern landmark buildings,又称悉尼歌剧院为the single best-known modern building in the world。D与文意一致。

1) The first task is to specify (71) , which defines the technologies to be used by one, more, or all information systems in terms of their data, processes, interfaces, and network components. This task is accomplished by analyzing the data models and process models that are initially created during requirements analysis.

2) The next systems design task is to develop the (72) . The purpose of this task is to prepare technical design specifications for a database that will be adaptable to future requirements and expansion.

3) Once the database prototype has been built, the systems designer can work closely with system users to develop input, output and dialogue specifications. The (73) must be specified to ensure that the outputs are not lost, misrouted, misused, or incomplete.
