Notre-Dame de Paris, a cathedral church ...

    Notre-Dame de Paris, a cathedral church in Paris, is the most famous of the Gothic cathedrals of the Middle Ages. For the French, it represents something immortal, ever-present and unchanging, like a mountain. Built over almost two centuries, the Notre-Dame is, as President Emmanuel Macron said, “where the French lived all their great moments”. Soldiers prayed here before leaving for the Crusades; Napoleon Bonaparte was crowned here; it survived the French Revolution, two World Wars and the Nazi occupation. It is where men bend their knees to profess love and thousands of tourists take photos every day.

A fire, whose cause was not identified yet, engulfed (吞没), on April 15th, the cathedral's upper structure. More than 400 firefighters took part in the 15-hour battle to control the blaze (火苗) that triggered sorrow over the globe. The extent of the damage is still unknown, but the fire destroyed much of the gothic cathedral’s wood-timbered roof and spire (塔尖). The cathedral will certainly be restored (the French government promises), but the sight of flames bringing down the spire moved the world in a manner far exceeding its religious significance.

French Culture Minister Franck Riester on Thursday said the government would draw all the consequences from the huge flames that destroyed the centuries-old Notre Dame Cathedral, adding measures to protect the national heritage were on the table. “Staff from the fire department, the culture ministry and the city town hall rushed to the Cathedral, when the fire started, to protect the main artworks that were inside. The artworks, which include relics such as the Christ's crown of thorns and French king Saint-Louis's 13th century tunic, were first moved to the city town hall and will now be transferred to the nearby Louvre Museum .” the minister told Le Parisian newspaper in an interview without giving details on the possible measures.

1.What can we learn about the Notre-Dame de Paris?

A.It is the most well-known cathedral. B.Most of the French think little of it.

C.It was built by Napoleon Bonaparte. D.It’s still in existence after two World Wars.

2.What is true about the Cathedral in the accident?

A.Only the spire was brought down by the flames.

B.It was completely burnt in the fire.

C.The gilded crown of thorns in it was gone forever.

D.The cause of the accident to the Cathedral was still unknown.

3.According to Franck Riester, what has already done by the government?

A.Rebuild the cathedral.

B.Rescue the artworks inside the cathedral.

C.Transfer the relics to the nearby Louvre Museum.

D.Release the cause of the fire to the public.

 

1.D 2.D 3.B 【解析】 这是一篇说明文。巴黎圣母院是巴黎的一座大教堂,是中世纪最著名的哥特式教堂。但在2019年4月15日,一场尚未查明原因的大火吞没了大教堂的上部结构。400名消防员参加了长达15个小时的灭火战斗,损坏的程度还不清楚,但大火烧毁了这座哥特式大教堂的大部分木质屋顶和塔尖。这场火灾引发了全球的悲痛。但法国政府也努力抢救出了圣母院中的一些艺术品。 1.细节理解题。根据第一段中Soldiers prayed here before leaving for the Crusades; Napoleon Bonaparte was crowned here; it survived the French Revolution, two World Wars and the Nazi occupation.可知,士兵们在离开这里参加十字军东征之前在这里祈祷;拿破仑·波拿巴在这里加冕;它在法国大革命、两次世界大战和纳粹占领下幸存下来。由此可知,巴黎圣母院在两次世界大战之后仍然存在。故选D。 2.细节理解题。根据第二段第一句A fire, whose cause was not identified yet, engulfed, on April 15th, the cathedral's upper structure.可知,4月15日,一场火灾吞没了大教堂的上部结构,火灾的起因尚不清楚。由此可知,大教堂的事故原因仍不清楚。故选D。 3.细节理解题。根据最后一段中The artworks, which include relics such as the Christ's crown of thorns and French king Saint-Louis's 13th century tunic, were first moved to the city town hall and will now be transferred to the nearby Louvre Museum.可知这些艺术品包括基督荆棘王冠和法国国王圣路易斯13世纪的束腰外衣等文物,最初被转移到市政厅,现在将转移到附近的卢浮宫博物馆。由此可知,根据Franck Riester的说法,政府已经抢救了大教堂内的艺术品。故选B。
