单元综合检测(四)Ⅰ.阅读理解(共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分)AIn our annual Readers Choice Awards survey，we asked our readers to rate their favorite cities in the world for arts and culture.These cities are centres of music and dance，museums，and theatres.Here are four of them where you can find inspiration in the arts，starting with the top spot.Rome，ItalyAt its peak，the Roman Empire extended over nearly two million square miles of land across Europe，Asia Minor and North Africa.Today，that history is on display everywhere.The citys main attractions are famous not because of tourist advertisements，but because they are really so impressive.No wonder its known as the Eternal City：You could spend forever here and find new artistic and cultural treasures every day.Paris，FranceHemingway famously called Paris “a moveable feast”，but wherever you go while in the city，there is always something to see，hear，taste or feel.With some 150 museums，Paris doubles as an art history class，offering the very best of the discipline across centuries and styles.London，The United KingdomLondon is inspiration and setting for the rise of Shakespeare，Dickens，Orwell and Eliot and the breeding ground for all those iconic (标志性的) bands：The Kinks，The Clash and The Stones.London is also Banksys favorite canvas，home to more than 1，000 galleries，and the kind of pace where you can spend a whole day in a single museum and still be ready for more when it opens the next morning.Vienna，AustriaAs we all know，Western music would be unrecognizable without Austrias capital，which nurtured many famous musicians.Its also the site of the Vienna Secession，a revolutionary art movement founded in 1897 by Gustav Klimt.Visitors today can see the fruits of all that creativity in the citys 100odd museums.【语篇解读】　本文是一篇应用文。
