2018年考研英语一阅读新题型真题及参考答案

Part B

Directions:

The following paragraphs are given in a wrong order. For Questions 41-45, you are required to reorganize these paragraphs into a coherent article by choosing from the list A-G and filling them into the numbered boxes.Paragraphs C and F have been correctly placed. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET. (10 points)

[A]. In December of 1 869, Congress appointed a commission to select a site and prepare plans and cost estimates for a new State Department Building. The commission was also to consider possible arrangements for the War and Navy Departments. To the horror of some who expected a Greek Revival twin of the Treasury Building to be erected on the other side of the White House, the elaborate French Second Empire style design by Alfred Mullett was selected, and construction of a building to house all three departments began in June of 1871.

[B]. Completed in 1875, the State Department's south wing was the first to be occupied, with its elegant four- story library (completed in 1876), Diplomatic Reception Room, and Secretary's office decorated with carved wood, Oriental rugs, and stenciled wall patterns. The Navy Department moved into the east wing in 1879, where elaborate wall and ceiling stenciling and marquetry floors decorated the office of the Secretary.

[C]. The State, War, and Navy Building, as it was originally known, housed the three Executive Branch Departments most intimately associated with formulating and conducting the nation's foreign policy in the last quarter of the nineteenth century and the first quarter of the twentieth century-the period when the United States emerged as an international power. The building has housed some of the nation's most significant diplomats and politicians and has been the scene of many historic events.

[D]. Many of the most celebrated national figures have participated in historical events that have taken place within the EEOB's granite walls. Theodore and Franklin D. Roosevelt, William Howard Taft, Dwight D. Eisenhower, Lyndon B. Johnson, Gerald Ford, and George H. W. Bush all had offices in this building before becoming president. It has housed 16 Secretaries of the Navy, 21 Secretaries of War, and 24 Secretaries of State. Winston Churchill once walked its corridlors and Japanese emissaries met here with Secretary of State Cordell Hull after the bombing of Pearl Harbor.

[E]. The Eisenhower Executive Office Building (EEOB) commands a unique position in both the national history and the architectural heritage of the United States. Designed by Supervising Architect of the Treasury, Alfred B. Mullett, it was built from 1871 to 1888 to house the growing staffs of the State, War, and Navy Departments, and is considered one of the best examples of French Second Empire architecture in the country.

[F]. Construction took 17 years as the building slowly rose wing by wing. When the EEOB was finished, it was the largest office building in Washington, with nearly 2 miles of black and white tiled corridors. Almost all of the interior detail is of cast iron or plaster; the use of wood was minimized to insure fire safety. Eight monumental curving staircases of granite with over 4,000 individually cast bronze balusters are capped by four skylight domes and two stained glass rotundas.

[G]. The history of the EEOB began long before its foundations were laid. The first executive offices were constructed between 1799 and 1820. A series of fires (including those set by the British in 1814) and overcrowded conditions led to the construction of the existing Treasury Building. In 1866, the construction of the North Wing of the Treasury Building necessitated the demolition of the State Department building.

41.→C→42.→43.→F→44. →45.

美国艾森豪威尔行政办公大楼

[E]艾森豪威尔行政办公大楼在美国国家历史和建筑遗产方面都有着独特的地位。该大楼由财政部监督建筑师阿尔弗雷德●B.马利特检设计，建造于1871年至1888年，为美国国务院、军事部和海军部门不断增长的工作人员提供办公场所，被认为是美国国内法国第二帝国建筑风格最好的例子之一。

[C]从一开始就众所周知的是，在十九世纪最后二十五年和二十世纪最初二十五年，美国作为一个国际大国崛起的时期，美国国务院、军事部和海军大楼为制定和执行国家外交政策最密切相关的三个行政部门提供办公场所。这座大楼里有许多国家最为重要的外交官和政治家，同时还经历过许多历史事件。

[G]艾森豪威尔行政办公大楼的历史在其建立地基很久之前就已经开始了。首批行政办公室建造于1799年至1820年。一系列火灾(包括1814 年英国人纵的火)和过于拥挤的条件最终导致了现在的国家财政部大楼的建立。1866年，国家财政部北翼大楼的建成使得美国国务院大楼的拆除变得必要。

[A] 1869年12月，国会委派了一个委员会为新的国务院大楼进行选址、筹划和成本预算。委员会同时也要为军事和海军部门的合理安置进行考虑。有些人预想到一个和财政部大楼相类式的希腊复兴式建筑会建在白宫的另一边。令他们惊恐的是，最终选择了阿尔费雷德●马利特精心设计的法国第二帝国风格式建筑。1871 年6月，这个容纳国家三个部门的建筑开始动工。

[F]建筑工程持续了17年，大楼日益成形，当艾森豪威尔行政办公大楼最终竣工的时候，它成为华盛顿最大的办公大楼，拥有将近2英里由黑白瓦片铺成的长廊。几乎所有的内部细节都是由铸铁或石膏建成，木材的使用被降到最低，以确保消防安全。八个纪念碑式的花岗岩弯曲楼梯有4,000多个独立铸造的青铜栏杆，上面覆盖四个天窗式穹顶和两个彩色玻璃的圆形建筑。

[B]竣工于1875年，美国国务院的南楼首先被启用。它拥有高雅的四层图书馆(竣工于1876年) 外交接待室和秘书办公室，装饰有雕刻木材、东方地毯以及用模板印刷的墙壁图案。1879 年海军部迁入东楼，秘书办公室装饰有精美的墙壁、镂花涂装的天花板和内饰图案的地板。

[D]许多最有名望的国家元首们参加了艾森豪威尔行政办公大楼花岗岩墙壁内发生的历史性事件。西奥多、富兰克林●D.罗斯福、威廉●霍华得●塔夫脱、德怀特●D.艾森豪威尔、林登●B.约翰逊、杰拉尔德●福特和乔治●W.布什在成为总统之前在这栋大楼里均有办公室。16 位海军部部长、21 位军事部部长和24位国务卿曾在这里办公。温斯顿●丘吉尔曾经走过这里的长廊，珍珠港爆炸事件后日本特使们和国务卿科德尔●赫尔曾在这里约见。
