【学能培优】甘肃省部分普通中学2016高考英语新课标学能培优特训试题（十一） 【全国优秀高中英语名师】 甘肃庆阳 刘克炜 注意：本试卷分第Ⅰ卷（选择题）和第Ⅱ卷（非选择题）两部分。满分120分。考试时间100分钟。 第Ⅰ卷 第一部分：阅读理解( 共两节，满分40分) 第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。 A Many cities have subways and underground public transportation to take locals and tourists alike rapidly around the city．However, there’s something different about riding a London subway．It may not look different, but the historical value of one of England’s most popular forms of transportation is enough to make riding the subway a must when visiting London．With a little under 100 different stations, the subway can take you almost anywhere you need to go． Riding a London subway, a person from other countries will notice one major difference: in London, people do not look at each other．In fact, eye contact is avoided at all times．That’s not rudeness ― people are just too busy to bother looking． Busy doing what, you ask?
