13、ad no external windows B. 房子没有外部窗户C. the name for cities means “wall” C. 城市的意思是“墙”D. walls have always been important there D. 在那里，墙一直都很重要【考查点】事实细节题。【解题思路】根据第一段第三句“不仅是城镇和村庄，房屋和寺庙都有围墙，房子也没有窗户可以俯瞰街道，给人一种在巨大迷宫中漫步的感觉（giving the feeling of wandering around a huge maze）”，从中可知，中国的城市像一个迷宫，是因为房子没有窗户，B项正确。【干扰
14、项排除】A项“它们被设计来保护它们的王国”是公元前4世纪和公元前3世纪的国家修护城墙的目的，和题干无关，张冠李戴；C项“城市的意思是墙”和D项“在那里，墙一直都很重要”虽然在文中有提及，但是并不符合题干的问题，属于张冠李戴。第2题:2.【选项释义】2. Constructing a wall that ran the length of the country _. 2. 建造一堵贯穿整个国家的墙_。A. honored the god of walls and mounts A. 是为了纪念墙神和山神B. was an absurdly laborious task B. 是一项极其费力的工
15、作C. may have made sense within Chinese culture C. 可能在中国文化中有意义D. made the country look like a huge maze D. 让这个国家看起来像个巨大的迷宫【考查点】推理判断题。【解题思路】根据题干定位至第一段最后一句“因此，像修筑一堵穿越全国的城墙这样艰巨而又极其费力的工作，就不会显得如此荒谬了”，结合它的上一句“在这些有城墙的城市、村庄、房屋和寺庙的上方，有墙神和山神，他们的职责过去是现在依然是保护和负责居民的福利”综合理解可知，修筑贯穿全国的高墙是一项艰巨而又费力的工作，但是在中国文化中，城墙上有墙神和山神，来保佑居民的福利；所以建造一堵贯穿整个国家的墙在中国的文化中是具有一定意义的，C项“可能在中国文化中有意义”符合题意。【干扰项排除】A项“是为了纪念墙神和山神”根据解题思路可知，该项曲解原文；B项“是一项极其费力的工作”虽然在文中确有提及，但不是题干问的重点之处，属于本末倒置；D项“让这个国家看起来像个巨大的迷宫”与建造一堵贯穿整个国家的墙的原因无关，偷换概念。第3题:3.【选项释义】3. The Great Wall of China _. 3. 中国长城_。A. used existing foundations A. 使用存
