New York State plans to shut off the thundering waters of Niagara Falls—again. At least, the American side of the falls. This "once in a lifetime" event actually may take place twice in some folks’ lives.
The New York State parks system wants to turn off the falls on the American side sometime in the next two to three years to replace two 115-year-old stone bridges that allow pedestrians, park vehicles and utilities access to Goat Island.
The American side of the falls were shut off in 1969 to study the buildup of rock at the base of the falls. When that happened, people came from all over the world to see the falls turned off.
People are curious by nature. They want to see what’s underneath. In fact, those who first came to have a look did see something.
They found millions of coins on the bottom.
1. Why does New York State want to turn off Niagara Falls?
2. What did people find when Niagara Falls were shut off in 1969?
选项
A、To satisfy the curiosity of tourists.
B、To replace two old stone bridges.
C、To enable tourists to visit Goat Island.
D、To improve utility services in the state.
答案
B
解析
细节辨认题。新闻中提到,纽约州立公园系统想在未来的两到三年内的某个时间关闭美国境内的尼亚加拉大瀑布,以更换行人、公园车辆和设备通往山羊岛要经过的两座石桥。
