阅读理解：
The area south of the Thames at Greenwich has a long history. Throughout time different buildings have been constructed on the same site. The Palace of Placentia, an English Royal Palace built in 1447, no longer exists apart from a few remains under the present buildings.The grand buildings on the South Bank of the Thames at Greenwich were designed by Sir Christopher Wren, most famous for St. Paul’s Cathedral. The buildings were finally completed in 1745, although some parts started to be used as early as 1705. They’re now part of a university — having served as a naval hospital and a naval college and the setting for several cinemas.But the buildings stand on a site which has a much longer history, of which now only a part remains that is below the ground. For nearly two hundred years, from around 1450 to 1650, Greenwich was one of the main royal palaces of England. Some of the most famous English rulers, such as Henry VIII and Elizabeth I, not only lived there, but also were born there.Henry VIII put an armory there, and there were also gardens, a great fountain and a mass of buildings. The Palace was also in a strategic location, because at the time either side of Greenwich on the Thames were important Royal Dockyards.Eventually, though, the Palace fell into disrepair. In 1664, the King at the time, Charles II, decided to replace it with completely new buildings in a modern style. Only a cellar from the former Royal Palace now remains, under one of the new buildings. Its red brick, typical of the sixteenth century, contrasts sharply with the white stone above it.Would you like to join us to have a good view of Greenwich?1.

Where can we most probably read this passage?A. In a science report.B. In a personal diary.C. In a geography textbook.D. In a travel magazine.

答案解析：1.解析：D正确从这篇文章，我们知道普拉森舍宫怎么样？从第三段可以直接找到答案：The Palace was also in a strategic location……，说明这座宫殿的地理位置很重要。其他选项说的是泰晤士河南岸的建筑，不仅仅是这么一座宫殿。

2.解析：B正确南岸的建筑现在怎么样了？从倒数第二段可以知道这些建筑的现状，已经基本不存在了，被新的建筑物所取代。

3.解析：D正确这篇文章最有可能出现在哪里？从最后一句可以看出，这是与旅游有关的文章。所以最有可能出现在旅游杂志上。

参考译文：英国格林威治市泰晤士河的南部地区拥有悠久的历史。在时间的长河中，同一个地方先后耸立着不同的建筑物。普拉森舍宫，是一座建于1447年的英国皇家宫殿，除了现在建筑下面的少量遗迹，已经不复存在了。这些宏伟建筑建在格林威治市泰晤士河南岸，由克里斯托弗•雷恩爵士设计，他以圣保罗大教堂最为出名。建筑最终于1745年完工，尽管部分建筑早在1705年就开始投入使用了。现在它们归属一所大学——作为海军医院和海军学院，坐落着几座电影院。但是这些建筑所在的地方拥有更长的历史，而历史的见证只有一部分残骸埋于地下。在将近两千年的历史中，从大约1450年到1650年，格林威治是英国主要皇家宫殿所在地之一。一些最富盛名的英国统治者，如亨利八世和伊丽莎白一世，不仅仅住在这里，也出生在这里。亨利八世在这里设立了一座兵工厂，还建造了花园，一个巨大的喷泉和大量建筑。这座宫殿也处在一个战略位置，因为在当时泰晤士河上的格林威治的任何一边都是重要的皇家船厂。然后宫殿最终年久失修。1664年，当时在位的国王查尔斯二世，决定用现代风格的全新建筑替代旧宫殿。只有先前皇宫的一个地窖遗留至今，在某座新式建筑之下。其具有典型16世纪风格的红色的砖块与上方的白色石块形成鲜明对比。你愿意和我们一起好好欣赏格林威治吗？
