Question

Are you a volcano lover? Here is a list of some of the world's most beautiful volcanoes

that our travel agency can offer you to visit. Don't miss them!

Mount Mayon, the Philippines

Located about 450 km southeast of Manila on the island of Luzon, Mount Mayon is the

most active volcano in the Philippines; a September 2014 eruption forced thousands to flee the

area. Those who hike the volcano are rewarded with views of the towns in the Albay province

and the Pacific Ocean. But even those who prefer the view from a distance have a historical

good point at the Cagsawa Ruins, once an 18th Century Franciscan church that was destroyed

by an 1814 eruption.

Kilauea and Marina Kea, Hawaii

Hawaii's volcanoes are known for their active eruptions and extraordinary scenes. Mauna Kea is around one million years old, while Kilauea is the youngest volcano in Hawaii and has

been erupting continuously since 1983. The lava falls straight into the sea, creating fantastic

forms of black rocks and smoke clouds.

Mount Kelimutu, Indonesia

Kelimutu's three mysterious crater lakes attract both scientists and tourists to the island

of Flores in Indonesia's East Nusa Tenggara province. One is emerald green (翡翠绿), another

dark red, and the third pitch black. Scientists say the lakes take on such colors because the

volcanic gases met the lakes' minerals centuries ago.

1.People who hike Mount Mayon can enjoy the following EXCEPT ______.

A. views of the towns in the Albay province

B. views of the Pacific Ocean

C. views of the Cagsawa Ruins

D. views of Indonesia's East Nusa Tenggara province

【解析】

试题分析：本文为火山爱好者介绍了三座世界上景色最优美的火山。

1.D考查细节理解题。根据第二段内容“Those who hike the volcano are rewarded with views of the towns in the Albay province and the Pacific Ocean. But even those who prefer the view from a distance have a historical good point at the Cagsawa Ruins,”可知到Mayon山徒步旅行的人可以欣赏Albay省内一些城镇和太平洋的美景，还可以在远处欣赏Cagsawa遗址的景色。故选D。

2.A考查细节理解题。根据文章内容“Kilauea is the youngest volcano in Hawaii and has

been erupting continuously since 1983.”可知Kilauea是一座年轻的活火山，从1983年经常爆发。故选A。

3.C考查推理判断题。根据文章内容“Scientists say the lakes take on such colors because the

volcanic gases met the lakes' minerals centuries ago.”可知科学家认为这个湖呈现出这样的颜色是因为几个世纪前火山气体遇到湖里的矿物质的结果。故选C。

【名师点睛】

推理题对考生来说，是有一定难度的，因为答案不能直接在文章里找到。考生要根据文章的内容、说话者的语气来进行推理。必须清楚：推理=事实+逻辑。考生要根据原文中已知的事实，通过合理的逻辑思维，做出正确的推段。考生在解题时可以采取三S方法相结合的办法。在快速浏览文章的同时，根据题干和选项中的关键词（组），找到原文中相关点，然后仔细阅读相关句及前后的内容，综合前后略读到的有效信息对其内容加以理解并得出结论。尤其是长句子，比如复合句，其从句部分往往成为考点。因此，考生应注意这种句子的结构和关键词（组），要做到不仅知道其字面的意思，还要了解其内在的涵义。

例如：23题，根据最后一段内容，这个湖呈现3种颜色，是因为几个世纪前火山气体遇到湖里的矿物质的结果。所以我们推断出应该是发生了化学反应。故选C。
