Question

Answer 1

答案：A;C;B;A;D
解析：

剖析：1．這是一道推理判斷題．閱讀全文，尤其是根據(jù)短文第一段敘述很久以前，世界上僅有幾千人，這些人從一處到另一處不斷地搬遷．我們從該段最后一句They moved over the land, hunting animals for food就可以判斷出，在城市開始之前，人們以動物為主食． 　　2．這是一道事實詢問題．短文第二段敘述了沒有人知道這些人怎樣或者什么時候?qū)W會種植作物，但是當(dāng)他們學(xué)會了，生活就發(fā)生了變化，他們不必再尋找食糧．我們再根據(jù)該段尾句They could stay in one place and grow it得知，人們開始生活在一個固定的地方是因為他們開始種植作物的緣故． 　　3．這是一道事實細(xì)節(jié)題．短文第四段中Factories were built. More and more people lived near the factories清楚地說明，當(dāng)工廠建立的時候，越來越多的人生活在工廠附近． 　　4．這是一道正誤辨認(rèn)題．綜合短文第一段中There people moved from place to place．和短文第二段中No one Knows how or when those people learned about growing food. But when they did, their lives changed這兩處信息就可以看出，人們在開始種植作物之前只得經(jīng)常搬遷． 　　5．這是一道主旨大意題．短文首段第二句Do you know how cities began？是文章的主題句．全文敘述了人們從遠(yuǎn)古時候的游牧生活到村落的形成和后來發(fā)展到城市的過程．
