本文是一篇记叙文。
澳大利亚人Engwicht倡导回收街道,解决交通问题,使街道成为家庭和邻里交往更安全的地方。
1.选D 下文的“Kidsplayedthere,andneighborsstoppedtheretotalk.”是对D项中的“streetsbelongedtoeverybody”的解释。
2.选G 由下文的“Peopleneedtotakebacktheirstreets.”和Engwicht所做的努力可知,Engwicht认为街道不仅仅只是交通通道,还蕴含着更多的意义。
3.选F Engwicht致力于改善城市街道环境,由他四处宣讲他的想法可知,他不仅写书,还做演讲,并在社区中做工作。
故选F项。
4.选C 由下文的“madethestreetssafer...makecarsslowdown”可知,虽然Delft的市民在街道上放了很多东西,汽车仍可通行,但需要减慢速度。
5.选B 由上文Engwicht说的“streetsasour‘outdoorlivingroom’”可知,减缓汽车的通行速度仅仅只是开始,最终目的是让街道成为人们的“户外客厅”。
