The flag showed the country to which the ship belonged. The Union Jack became the flag of Great Britain. Australias flag has the Union Jack in the top left -hand corner together with the stars of the Southern Cross. They have kept this small part of Britain on their flag because their country was first settled by people from Britain. Australias flag is the same color as the Union Jack red, white and blue. The act of joining together is called a “union”. The Union Jack was the name of the flag made when England, Scotland and Ireland joined together to make one country.It all began in 1707, when England and Scotland joined together to become one nation. A flag was made using two crosses one for the patron saint of each country, which means protector. Many centuries before, the English had taken St. George as their patron saint. His emblem was a red cross on a white background. The Scottish patron saint was St Andrew. In memory of him, they used a white cross on a blue background. This cross was shaped like the letter “X”. The new flag was a mixture of both flags with two sets of crosses. When Ireland joined England and Scotland in 1800, another cross was added. St Paricks cross of Ireland was red and also shaped like an “X”. All three flags now made up the Union Jack.(1) The Union Jack is the flag of _.A. the United NationsB. IrelandC. England and ScotlandD. Great Britain(2) It is because _ that Australia has the Union Jack in the top left-hand corner together with the stars of the Southern Cross.A. the Union Jack was named when England, Scotland and Ireland joined togetherB. people from Britain brought the flag of Great Britain to AustraliaC. people from Britain settled in Australia firstD. the flag of Great Britain is colourful(3) According to the text, which of the following statements is NOT true?A. St. George was the English patron saint.B. The Scottish had taken St. Andrew as their patron saint.C. St. Patrick was the patron saint of Ireland, whose cross was red.D. Ever since 1800, the British have taken Union Jack as their patron saint.答案：1.(1)-(3)DCD解析：1.(1) 細節(jié)理解題。見首段第三句 “The Union Jack became the flag of Great Britain.”(2) 細節(jié)理解題。首段中間 “They have kept this small part of Britain on their flag because their country was first settled by people from Britain.道明了原因。(3) 由第二段可知 “patron saint”是由人來充當(dāng)?shù)模傻诙蔚牡谌?“the English had taken St. George as their patron saint.”和第五句 “The Scottish patron saint was St Andrew.”可知A、B兩項正確；由末段第二句 “St Paricks cross of Ireland was red and also shaped like an “X”.”可知C項亦正確；而由第一段首句和末句可知 “Union Jack”只是英國國旗的名稱，不是人名，故D項錯誤。2.The United States covers a large part of the North American continent.
