9、n of vision and a community working together.分析：本句用了虚拟语气。None of this would have been possible 表示与过去事实相反的情况，without 引出虚拟条件。译文：如果没有一个具有远见卓识的女人和一个一起努力的团体，所有这一切都是不可能的。1A 考查词义猜测。结合语境及上下文中出现的“clean up the Nashua” “the cleanup” “cleaning up the river”等信息可知，此处指的应是河流治理方面的内容，由此可推知画线词的意思应是“改造” ，与 A 项意思相近，故选 A
10、。2B 考查观点态度。根据第四段中的“When she spoke to the board.They thought her goals were unrealistic”可知，该委员会认为 Stoddart 改善河流状况的目标不切实际，即是持怀疑的态度的，故选 B。3B 考查推理判断。根据文章第三、四段中对 Stoddart 为了改善河流状况东奔西走的描述及最后一段中的“a woman of vision”可知，Marion Stoddart 是一个有决心和有远见卓识的人。故选 B。4C 考查推理判断。通读全文可知，改善纳舒厄河被污染的现状并不是 Stoddart 一个人的战斗，她还积极地
