第1题

Alexandre-Gustave Boenickhausen Eiffel was one of the 19th century's master builders. Wiel

ding iron in new ways, he built bridges for the century's burgeoning railways in Europe, South America and Indochina. And after sculptor Frederic Auguste Bartholdi designed a colossal, 151-foot statue of copper sheets in 1871, he turned to France's magician of iron for its internal skeleton. Thus Eiffel was instrumental in creating two of the best-known monuments to liberty in the modern world—the Statue of Liberty and the Eiffel Tower, which was built to mark the centennial of the French Revolution.

During the Nazi occupation in World War II, the tower' s personnel sabotaged the elevators to deprive the enemy of a view of Paris. (Hitler, who refused to climb the 1710 steps to the top, posed for his picture with the tower in the background. ) The city knew liberation was at hand on August 25, 1944, when two Parisians, braving bullets ricocheting through the girders, tore down the swastika and hoisted the tricolor.

The tower illustrates Eiffel's genius for meticulous, innovative engineering. After he had set massive stone foundations beside the Seine, four giant leaning pillars, encompassing four acres, were joined 200 feet up at the first platform, an iron belt of trusses running from pillar to pillar. This belt had to be perfectly horizontal; if out of line by a hair, the structure would tilt disastrously at 1000 feet. Eiffel' s solution: hydraulic jacks embedded in each 440-ton column, enabling him to fine-tune its angle perfectly.

Next, Eiffel deployed creeper cranes that climbed the tower as it grew, helping to hoist 15000 girders and 2.5 million rivets to the exact spot where needed. Astonishingly, the tower was completed in only two years and two months for three percent less than its $ 1.5-million budget, with no fatalities among the 250 workers.

Thanks to Eiffel's mastery of design, the tower gives the wind little to seize. Seen from certain angles, the oddly beautiful tracery of intersecting iron beams appears almost transparent. The tower is so light that pressure on the foundations is only about 60 pounds per square inch—not much more than a well-fed gentleman exerts on the floor when sitting in a chair.

第5题

The stranger could not have been more than twenty-five years of age, and was a little abov

e the ordinary height; had he been a single hair's breadth taller, the matchless symmetry of his form. would have been destroyed. His unclad limbs were beautifully formed; whilst the elegant outline of his figure, together with his beardless cheeks, might have entitled him to the distinction of standing for the statue of the Polynesian Apollo; and indeed the oval of his countenance and the regularity of every feature reminded me of an antique bust. But the marble repose of art was supplied by a warmth and liveliness of expression only to be seen in the South Sea Islander under the most favorable developments of nature. The hair of Marnoo was a rich curling brown, and twined about his temples and neck in little close curling ringlet, which danced up and down continually when he was animated in conversation. His cheek was of a feminine softness, and his face was free from the least blemish of tattooing, although the rest of his body was drawn all over with fanciful figures, which--like the unconnected sketching usual among these natives--appeared to have been executed in conformity with some general design.

The tattooing on his back in particular attracted my attention. The artist employed must indeed have ex- celled in his profession. Traced along the course of the spine was accurately delineated the slender, tapering, and diamond-checkered shaft of the beautiful “artu” tree. Branching from the stem on each side, and disposed alternately, were the graceful branches drooping with leaves all correctly drawn, and elaborately finished. In- deed, this piece of tattooing was the best specimen of the Fine Arts I had yet seen in Typee. A rear view of the stranger might have suggested the idea of a spreading vine tacked against an infinite variety of figures~ every one of which, however, appeared to have reference to the general effect sought to be produced. The tattooing I have described was of the brightest blue, and when contrasted with the light olive-color of the skin, produced a unique and even elegant effect. A slight girdle of white tappa, scarcely two inches in width, but hanging before and behind in spreading tassels, composed the entire costume of the stranger.

He advanced surrounded by the islanders, carrying under one arm a small roll of the native cloth, and grasping in his other hand a long and richly decorated spear. His manner was that of a traveler conscious that he is approaching a comfortable stage in his journey. Every moment he turned good-humoredly to the throng a- round him, and gave some dashing sort of reply to their incessant queries, which appeared to convulse them with uncontrolled mirth.

The writer means for this passage to appeal to the reader's______.

A．senses

B．religion

C．morals

D．thoughts
