阅读理解所给的答案中Samarkand的方位是在mountains and the airport之间,但它所说的依据局句并没有提到mountains,所以想问下Samarkand的方位是如何判定的?
文章的第一段:
I myself first saw Samarkand from a rise across a wilderness of crumbling ruins and great graveyards which lie between it and the airport. Suddenly we caught a glimpse of painted towers and the great blue domes of mosques and tombs shouldering the full weight of the sky among bright green trees and gardens. Beyond the gardens and the glittering domes still were those watchful mountains and their evocative snow. I found myself thinking of the thrill I had on catching my first sight of Damascus after crossing the desert from Syria. The light, file orchards and many of the trees were the same but deeper still was the sense of coming into contact with one of the most astonishing cultures in history, the world of the one and only Allah and his prophet Muhammad. It was a world that completely overawed me.
问题:
56.Samarkand lies ______.
A.in a desert
B.high in the mountains
C.in front of Damascus
D.between the mountains and the airport
书上给的解析:
56. [答案]D
[解析]本题的依据句是“I myself first saw Samarkand from a rise across a wilderness of crumbling ruins and great graveyards which lie between it and the airport.”,从中可知D项为正确答案。
曹老师的解答简洁了。
我补充一下,供网友参考:
I myself first saw Samarkand from a rise across a wilderness of crumbling ruins and great graveyards which lie between it(=Samarkand) and the airport. Suddenly we caught a glimpse of painted towers and the great blue domes of mosques and tombs shouldering the full weight of the sky among bright green trees and gardens. Beyond the gardens and the glittering domes still were those watchful mountains and their evocative snow.
大概意思:
我第一次看见撒马尔罕,是站在一个小丘(rise)上。小丘位于荒芜的废墟和大坟场中,废墟和大坟场坐落在机场和撒马尔罕(Samarkand)之间。 突然,我们瞥见了彩绘塔楼以及清真寺和坟墓的巨大蓝色圆顶,它们肩负穹隆,掩映在翠绿的树木和花园中。 花园和闪闪发光的圆顶的远处,是不眠的大山(mountains),山上的积雪令人浮想联翩。
撒马尔罕印象:彩绘塔楼以及清真寺和坟墓的巨大蓝色圆顶,它们肩负穹隆,掩映在翠绿的树木和花园中…
观测点:I 的观测点是小丘rise,小丘的位置当然也在机场和撒马尔罕(Samarkand)之间。
视线所及:I站在小丘rise上,先看到撒马尔罕的景观,又看到远处的大山(mountains)。
位置关系: 小丘的一侧是机场,另一侧依次是撒马尔罕和大山。即:
机场airport——小丘rise——撒马尔罕Samarkand——大山mountains
