61)
The earlier type of suburb, which was most dependent on the railroad, had a special advantage that could be fully appreciated only after it had disappeared.
These suburbs, spread out along a railroad line, were discontinuous and properly spaced; and without the aid of legislation (法规) they were limited in population as well as area; for the biggest rarely held as many as ten thousand people, and under five thousand was more usual. In 1950, for example, Bronxville, New York, a typical upper-class suburb, had 6,778 people, while Riverside, Illinois, founded as early as 1869, had only 9,153.
62)
The size and scale of the suburb, that of a neighborhood unit, was not entirely the result of its open planning, which favored low densities.
Being served by a fail road line, with station stops from three to five miles apart, there was a natural limit to the spread of any particular community. 63)
House had to be sited "within easy walking distance of the railroad station," as some old residents would point out; and only those wealthy enough to afford a horse and a carriage dared to penetrate farther into the open country.
64)
Through its spaced station stops, the railroad suburb was at first kept from spreading or excessively increasing in numbers, for a natural greenbelt, often still under cultivation as park, gardens, remained between the suburbs and increased the available recreation area.
Occasionally, in a few happy areas like Westchester, between 1915 and 1935 a parkway, like the Bronx River parkway, accompanied by continuous strip of park for pedestrian use, not yet overrun by a constant stream of urban traffic, added to the perfection of the whole suburban pattern. 65)
Whatever one might say of the social disadvantages this was in many ways a perfect physical environment. But it lasted less than a generation.
选项
答案
由于铁路郊区分布在车站旁,它从一开始就防止过度扩张或过分增加人口,这样就使得一个自然的绿化带——常常是一些人工种植的公园、花园,得以在郊区间保留,并增添了可用于娱乐的空间。
解析
本题考查长难句的理解和翻译。此句虽然不是复合句结构,但是,句中的插入成分较多,在分析句式结构时,给考生造成了一定的困难。through此处为介词,意为“原因,结果”,在这里我们可以译为“由于”。its指代“the railroad suburb”;“often still under cultivation as park,gardens”在句中作为插入语,补充说明前面的“natural greenbelt”。
