The fire at Notre Dame Cathedral(巴黎圣母院) in Paris has raised questions about the condition of thousands of other historic buildings across Europe. It also raises questions about whether European governments are doing enough to keep up and care for such buildings.

Some people say the fire last month was a wake-up call, not just for Europe, but the whole world. Large fires have long robbed humanity of knowledge, art and treasures. One example is the fire at the famous library of Alexandria in northern Egypt about 1700 years ago.

In 2015, the German engineering company Siemens found that Scotland had about 10 serious fires a year, while England lost at least twelve listed buildings a year. In Germany, 70 historic buildings have been destroyed since 2000.

And all too often, fires happen while old buildings are being repaired. Experts say that what is needed is continuous attention and maintenance(维护). These steps, if taken, could help avoid the need for major repairing work.

But regular attention and maintenance costs money.

Part of the problem comes from the shortage of money provided by governments after the 2008 financial crisis (金融危机). As a result, governments are increasingly looking for rich companies to keep up these historic buildings.

“We do need more money, but this is a shared duty for governments, businesses and citizens across Europe,” said an officer from the European Union.

Some say world-famous monuments like Notre Dame are the driving force behind tourism and should get more respect. People have noticed the importance of such respect.

“Historic buildings are a gold mine(矿). You cannot explore it and then just leave the mine and go to another one. It is something you really have to value,” the officer said.

1.After the fire at Notre Dame Cathedral, more attention is paid to_________ .

A.European governments B.famous libraries

C.engineering companies D.the old buildings

2.According to the passage, one of the biggest enemies of cultural treasures is________.

A.robbers B.fires C.money D.tourists

3.“These steps” in Paragraph 4 refer to (指代)___________.

A.attention and maintenance B.careful repairing work

C.enough respect from people D.serious financial crisis

4.The officer thinks _______should accept the duty of caring for these famous monuments.

A.citizens around the world B.the European governments

C.rich European businesses D.the whole European society

5.The purpose of writing this article is to ask everyone to____________.

A.value historic buildings B.donate plenty of money

C.pay attention to big fires D.avoid exploring mines

The Notre Dame (巴黎圣母院) fire has been put out, but its wooden roof has been largely damaged. The terrible accident caused a sudden sharp pain to people around the world, “What a pity that we cannot see the damaged parts of the wonder anymore.”

But the good news is that there is at least one way of seeing them, namely via a video game called Assassin’s Creed: Unity. In this game, the player can travel to one city after another and enter the buildings exactly like what they are in reality, and see Notre Dame as it was before the fire.

What’s more, with VR technology, which is already quite mature, one can even look around the undamaged Notre Dame as if it is still there. Maybe digital technology could help to better protect architectural cultural heritage (建筑文化遗产).

The idea of digitizing ancient buildings, making digital models of them so their data can be saved, dates back to the 1990s and the necessary technology has continued to advance since then. By scanning the ancient buildings with lasers, building 3D models with hundreds of images, as well as measuring (测量) everything exactly, engineers can make a copy as “same” as the real one.

As computers and smartphones are hugely popular, the digital replica or digital copy has great practical value. First, it allows tourists to feel the cultural relics (文物) without touching them, which helps protect them. The virtual tour of Dunhuang Grottoes in Gansu Province is a good example of this as tourists can view the paintings without standing near them. Furthermore, it can make the digitized cultural relics more famous by spreading awareness about them via the Internet. In 2000, a virtual tour of the Great Wall became very popular at the Hannover World Expo, which increased the number of foreign tourists visiting it in the following years. Above all, it saves all the information of the cultural relics. Even if the original ones are damaged one day, people can still know what they were like and can build a replica if desired.

Time is the biggest problem to architectural heritage. Maybe we will have better technologies in the future, but the digital technology offers a practical way to protect architectural cultural heritage at the moment.

1.What can we see about Notre Dame in the video game?

A.The big fire. B.Its original look.

C.The damaged parts. D.Its wooden shape.

2.What will engineers do to create a digital copy of the ancient buildings?

A.Make digital models. B.Build 3D models of full size.

C.Improve the cultural heritage. D.Measure all the parts exactly.

3.How does the writer prove the digital copy has great practical value?

A.By giving examples. B.By comparison.

C.By reasoning things out. D.By showing methods.

4.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

A.The Damage of Notre Dame

B.The Value of Digital Replica

C.Digital Technology Helps Protect Cultural Relics

D.VR Technology Helps Repair the Ancient Buildings

九年级英语单选题简单题查看答案及解析

A woman made bread for members of her family and an extra(额外的) one for a hungry passer-by every day. She kept the extra bread on the windowsill(窗台)，for whomever would take it away easily.

Everyday，a hunchback(驼背的人) came and took away the bread. Instead of saying thanks，he repeated the following words as he went his way，“The evil(邪恶) you do remains with you. The good you do，comes back to you!”This went on，day after day.

One day，the woman felt angry.“Not a word of thanks，”she said to herself. She decided to kill him. She added poison(毒药) to the bread she prepared for him. As she was about to place it on the windowsill her hands shook.“What is this I am doing?”Immediately，she threw the bread into the fire and prepared another one. As usual，the hunchback came，picked up the bread and repeated those words.

As the woman placed the bread on the windowsill，she prayed(祈祷) for her son who had gone to a faraway place to make money as usual.

That evening，there was a knock on the door. As she opened it，she was surprised to find her son standing in the doorway. His clothes were in pieces. He was hungry and weak.

He was kind enough to give me a whole bread. He said，“If Your need is greater than mine!”

As the mother heard those words，her face turned pale and red. She remembered the poisoned bread that she had made that morning. If she had not burnt it in the fire，it would have been eaten by her own son，and he would have lost his life!

It was then that she realized the importance of the words：“The evil you do remains with you. The good you do，comes back to you!”Do good and don’t ever stop doing good，even if it is not thanked at that time.
