4、 his presidency. As a result, his administration says, Obama has protected more of the nations land than any other president has.

5、s monument, Obama took the side of conservationists (自然资源保护者) who want laws to protect wild lands. Creating a national park usually requires the approval of Congress.

6、 mining and drilling operations are forbidden there. (77) It may also severely limit activities such as logging, road-building, and hunting. Some of Maines politicians who want to protect the states logging industries say Obama should not have acted alone. They say Washington should not tell the sta

13、 side of the central arch (拱门), and left a strange signature in the stonework of the link portions of the building.

20、 American Indian tribe (部落), is determined to stop the 1,172-mile pipeline from being built. (79) Both sides show no signs of backing down. The Dakota Access Pipeline was announced in 2014.

57、篇所讨论的是奥巴马设立国家公园获得的支持和遭到的反对。选项A促进就业只在文章最后一段提到，不能作为文章标题；选项B保护野生动物，文章未提到，属于无中生有；选项C促进当地经济增长也只是文章提到的一个方面，不能概括文章整篇容。2 【答案】C考点：细节题，文章第二段第一句Obama has now created or enlarged 26 national monuments during his presidency奥巴马在其任职期间已经建立或者扩建了26个国家保护区，established是created的同义替换，during his two terms是during his presidency 的同义替换，所以答案选择C，26个。3 【答案】C考点：细节题，文章第四段中提到了The lands new status as a monument means that mining and drilling operations are forbidden there. 土地作为保护区的新身份意味着开采和钻探是不被允许的。因而选择C。其它选项在第四段第二句有提到，但是是被限制，并不是不允许，因而不选。4 【答案】B考点：词
