The National Trust

The National Trust in Britain plays an increasingly important part in the preservation for public enjoyment of the best that is left unspoiled of the British countryside. Although the Trust has received practical and moral support from the Government, it is not a rich Government department. It is a voluntary association of people who care for the unspoiled countryside and historic buildings of Britain. It is a charity which depends for its existence on voluntary support from members of the public1. Its primary duty is to protect places of great natural beauty and places of historical interest.

The attention of the public was first drawn to the dangers threatening the great old houses and castles of Britain by the death of Lord Lothian, who left his great seventeenthcentury house to the Trust together with the 4500acre park and estate surrounding it. This gift attracted wide publicity and started the Trust's"Country House Scheme".Under this scheme, with the help of the Government and the general public, the Trust has been able to save and make accessible to the public about one hundred and fifty of these old houses2. Last year about one and three quarters of amillion people paid to visit these historic houses, usually at a very small charge.

In addition to country houses and open spaces the Trust now owns some examples of ancient wind and water mills3, nature reserves4, five hundred and forty farms and nearly two thousand five hundred cottages or small village houses, as well as some complete villages. In these villages no one is allowed to build, develop or disturb the old village environment in any way and all the houses are maintained in their original sixteenth-century style. Over four hundred thousand acres of coastline, woodland, and hill country are protected by the Trust and no development or disturbances of any kind are permitted. The public has free access to these areas and is only asked to respect the peace, beauty and wildlife.

So it is that over the past eighty years the Trust has become a big and important organization and an essential and respected part of national life, preserving all that is of great natural beauty and of historical significance not only for future generations of Britons but also for the millions of tourists who each year invade Britain in search of a great historic and cultural heritage.

注釋：

1．It is a charity which depends for its existence on voluntary support from members of the public.它是個(gè)慈善機(jī)構(gòu)，靠公眾中的會(huì)員自愿支持它才得以生存。depend on someone for something：在某事上依靠某人。又如：We depend on John for news supplies．在消息來(lái)源方面我們依靠約翰。原句中由于depend on的賓語(yǔ)voluntary support from members of the public較長(zhǎng)，因此，將for its existence提前。這種現(xiàn)象本文中還有另外兩處。第一句中的for public enjoyment和第二段倒數(shù)第二句中的accessible to the public都分別被提前。

2．…the Trust has been able to save and make accessible to the public about one hundred and fifty of these old houses. ……托管委員會(huì)拯救了大約150座這樣的老房子，并使大眾能參觀這些老房子。make something accessible to someone：使某人能接觸（或使用）某物。又如：The school has decided to make sports facilities more readily accessible to students．學(xué)校決定讓學(xué)生能更方便地使用體育設(shè)施。

3．wind and water mills：靠風(fēng)力和水流驅(qū)動(dòng)的磨坊

4．nature reserves：自然保護(hù)區(qū)

答案與題解：

1．B　文章第一段說(shuō)國(guó)家托管委員會(huì)盡管從政府那兒得到實(shí)際上和道義上的支持，其財(cái)政單純依靠私人捐款，而沒(méi)有政府撥款。

2．A　第一段第一句話說(shuō)在英國(guó)，國(guó)家托管委員會(huì)在保護(hù)名勝古跡方面扮演著越來(lái)越重要的角色。倒數(shù)第二段講該委員會(huì)管理著面積廣大的各種名勝古跡、自然景觀。最后一段說(shuō)經(jīng)過(guò)80年的發(fā)展，該組織已成為一個(gè)重要組織，成為國(guó)民生活中必不可少、受人尊敬的一部分。因此我們可以說(shuō)英國(guó)民眾越來(lái)越依靠托管委員會(huì)來(lái)保護(hù)風(fēng)景名勝。

3．C　第二段提到Lord Lothian在死后把一所17世紀(jì)的古宅及其周圍4 500英畝的土地贈(zèng)與托管委員會(huì)，但是沒(méi)有提到他是該委員會(huì)的建立者之一。

4．A　第二段說(shuō)托管委員會(huì)實(shí)行的“鄉(xiāng)村房屋計(jì)劃”保護(hù)了大約150座古宅，并向公眾開(kāi)放，收取少量的參觀費(fèi)。因此我們可以說(shuō)該計(jì)劃使公眾可以較為容易地進(jìn)人大約150座古宅參觀。

5．B　第三段說(shuō)在托管委員會(huì)所管理的自然保護(hù)區(qū)以及磨坊、農(nóng)場(chǎng)、村舍、村莊等人文景觀中任何人都不允許以任何方式建造、擴(kuò)建房屋，破壞原有的環(huán)境。所有的房子都保持著原有的16世紀(jì)的風(fēng)貌。因此一個(gè)加固一所老房子但仍保持其16世紀(jì)風(fēng)格的計(jì)劃是不違背這一精神的，不會(huì)被托管委員會(huì)否決。

6．C　第三段說(shuō)托管委員會(huì)管理著大面積的海岸線、林地和山丘起伏的鄉(xiāng)村，公眾可以免費(fèi)進(jìn)人這些地區(qū)，但是不允許破壞寧?kù)o、美麗的環(huán)境，不允許獵殺野生動(dòng)物。但是并沒(méi)有提到不允許帶罐裝食品和飲料入內(nèi)。

7．A　文章最后一段說(shuō)托管委員會(huì)保護(hù)風(fēng)景名勝、歷史景觀不僅造福于英國(guó)人民的子孫后代，而且造福于每年到英國(guó)旅游的數(shù)百萬(wàn)觀光客。由此我們可以推斷托管委員會(huì)的工作促進(jìn)了英國(guó)旅游業(yè)的發(fā)展。
