The world-famous Belgian has arrived in Britain with his equally famous dog for a five-month stay-nearly 70years after his first visit. Tintin, the eternally youthful reporter who only was ever known to file one story in all his adventures. is celebrating his 75th birthday this year with a new exhibition at London's National Maritime Museum.
Tintin at Sea is a collection of original drawings by Belgian cartoonist Georges Remi-more commonly known as Herge which was the French-speaking pronunciation of his reversed initial RG-and some of the artifacts and models that inspired him.
"Herge had a lifelong fascination with the sea and was above all a person who insisted on detail," the museum's director Roy Clare told reporters at a preview of the exhibition which opens to the public on Wednesday and runs to September 5。
Tintin, with his trademark quiff and plus-four trousers. traveled all over the world on adventures that took him and his white terrier known as Snowy in English and Milou in French from Tibet to America and Iceland to Africa.
Books of his adventures have been translated int0 60 languages and have sold 200 million copies since the comic strip character first saw the light of day in 1929.
Although the stories took Tintin and his irascible companion Captain Haddock as far as the moon, the sea is a recurring theme, in stories such as The Crab with the Golden Claws. Red Rackham's Treasure and The Secrets of the Unicorn.
Herge. who only traveled widely after the success of his creation, was a self-taught artist. He stayed in Belgium through World War Two and was accused and cleared of collaboration immediately afterwards, although be suffered a period of being an exile as a result. He was also accused of racism in some of Tintin's earlier adventures.
The reporter only once travelled to Britain, in the story The Black Isle, published in 1938.
"Here you have four famous Belgians." Joren Vandeweyer, the country’s cultural attache (大使隨員 ) to Britain. told reporters. "Tintin, Snowy, Captain Haddock and of course Herge himself. back after 66 years."

答案：
1.對(duì)于倫敦的展會(huì)我們知道些什么?
A)展會(huì)是為了展示Remi的作品《丁丁歷險(xiǎn)記》。
B) “丁丁海上歷險(xiǎn)”是展會(huì)中推出的新的系列。
C) 比利時(shí)動(dòng)畫家Remi帶著狗參加了這次展會(huì)。
D)這次展會(huì)開了5個(gè)星期，剛剛結(jié)束。
[A]首段第2句中的celebrating his 75th birthday表明倫敦的展覽是為了紀(jì)念Remi在75年前創(chuàng)造了Tintin這個(gè)人物的，因此選項(xiàng)A為正確的說法。第2段首句中的original drawings表明《丁丁歷險(xiǎn)記》并非最新創(chuàng)作，因此B不正確;從第1段和第4段可知，小狗的主人是漫畫的主角丁丁，并非該漫畫書的作者，因此C不正確;首句中的for a five-month stay表明這個(gè)展覽還沒開始，D與此相反。顯然不正確。
2.作為一名記者，丁丁最適合描述為____________.
A) 沒有經(jīng)驗(yàn)
B) 沒有效率
C)富有冒險(xiǎn)精神
D) 富有勇氣
[B]首段第2句中定語從句里的file one story表明Tintin只發(fā)表過一篇報(bào)道，可見，他的記者工作做得不夠好，因此B為本題答案。原文關(guān)于Tintin作為記者身份的信息只在首段第2句中的定語從句中提到，選城A沒有原文依據(jù);撇開Tintin記者的身份，選項(xiàng)C和D可以用來形容他的個(gè)性，但不能說明Tintin作為記者的特點(diǎn)，因此均不正確。
3.對(duì)于丁丁歷險(xiǎn)的說法，下列哪一種是正確的?
A) 丁丁的歷險(xiǎn)從地球延伸到外太空。
B) 丁丁去過米盧，西藏和冰島歷險(xiǎn)。
C) 白雪是丁丁歷險(xiǎn)途中最忠實(shí)的伙伴。
D) Haddock船長沒有參加丁丁的海上歷險(xiǎn)。
[A]第6段開頭讓步從句中的the moon表明選項(xiàng)A為正確的說法。根據(jù)第4段，Milou是小狗“白雪”的法文名，并非丁丁到過的地方，因此選項(xiàng)B不正確;選項(xiàng)C中的most faithful無從證明，因此該選項(xiàng)不正確;第6段表明阿道克船長與丁丁一起進(jìn)行了海上歷險(xiǎn)，因此D不正確。
4.Herge在二戰(zhàn)時(shí)遇到了什么事情?
A) 他因?yàn)榕褔锖头N族歧視而被流放。
B) 他與其他的漫畫家一起創(chuàng)作《丁丁歷險(xiǎn)記》。
C) 他被迫離開比利時(shí)一段時(shí)間。
D) 他通過《丁丁歷險(xiǎn)記》批判種族歧視。
[C]倒數(shù)第3段第2句中的讓步從句表明埃爾熱曾經(jīng)被放逐，即被迫離開比利時(shí)一段時(shí)間，因此選項(xiàng)C為本題答案。本題最具干擾性的是選項(xiàng)A，事實(shí)上，原文表明埃爾熱被放逐是因?yàn)槎?zhàn)期間被控通敵賣國，而他曾經(jīng)被控種族歧視，這是被放逐后發(fā)生的事了，從原文也不能看出他被放逐的時(shí)候同時(shí)被控這兩個(gè)罪名，因此A不正確。
5.丁丁第一次到英國是______________________。
A) 他在全世界出名了以后
B) 在66年前參加第一次展覽的時(shí)侯
C) 在第一個(gè)丁丁的英國故事之前
D) Herge寫的某個(gè)故事當(dāng)中的事情
[D]倒數(shù)第2段開頭的reporter指的就是丁丁，表明在此次展覽之前，丁丁唯一的一次英國之旅發(fā)生在一個(gè)埃爾熱創(chuàng)作的故事里，故選項(xiàng)D正確。選項(xiàng)A和C均沒有原文依據(jù)：末段末句雖有提及66年前的信息，但沒有提及丁丁66年前到英國是為了參加展覽，事實(shí)上，原文該處的“66年后重返英國”是針對(duì)上一段提及的丁丁在l938年在故事《黑島》中首次訪問英國而言的，因此，選項(xiàng)B是不正確的。
