Question

【題目】 “Where is the university?” This is a question that many visitors to Cambridge ask. But no one can give them an exact(精確的）answer，for there is no wall to be found around the university. The university is the city. You can find classroom buildings, libraries, museums and offices of the university all over the city. And most of its members are the students and teachers of the thirty-one colleges. Cambridge was already a town long before the first students and teachers arrived 800 years ago. It grew up by the river Cranta，and the river was once called the Cam. A bridge was built over the river as early as 875. So the town got its name “Cambridge”.

In the 14th and 15th centuries more and more land was for college buildings.

The town grew much faster in the 19th century after the opening of the railway in 1845.

Cambridge became a city in 1951 and now it has a population of over 100,000. Many young students in other countries expect to study at Cambridge. A large number of people from all over the world come to visit the university, and it is many young people’s dream to go there to study.

【解析】

這篇文章根據(jù)事件的順序介紹了劍橋大學(xué)的發(fā)展的簡單歷史。劍橋大學(xué)周圍沒有墻，大學(xué)就是城市。人們可以在全市各地找到教學(xué)樓、圖書館、博物館和大學(xué)辦公室。它的大部分成員是31所學(xué)院的學(xué)生和教師。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“But no one can give them an exact(精確的）answer，for there is no wall to be found around the university.”可知沒有人可以給他們一個(gè)確切的答案，因?yàn)榇髮W(xué)周圍沒有墻，故選B。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“And most of its members are the students and teachers of the thirty-one colleges.”可知它的大部分成員是31所學(xué)院的學(xué)生和教師，故選A。

【3】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“A bridge was built over the river as early as 875. So the town got its name “Cambridge”.”可知早在公元875年就在這條河上建了一座橋，因此，這個(gè)城鎮(zhèn)就有了“劍橋”的名字，故選B。

【4】推理判斷題。原文“Cambridge was already a town long before the first students and teachers arrived 800 years ago”可知早在800年前第一批學(xué)生和老師到達(dá)之前，劍橋就已經(jīng)是一個(gè)小鎮(zhèn)了，可推測出800年前學(xué)生和老師來到這個(gè)城鎮(zhèn)；原文“In the 14th and 15th centuries more and more land was for college buildings.”可知在十四和十五世紀(jì)，越來越多的土地用于大學(xué)建筑，可推測出14、15世紀(jì)更多土地用于大學(xué)建筑；原文“...the opening of the railway in1845.”可知1845年鐵路的開通，可推測出1845年有了鐵路；原文“Cambridge became a city in 1951”可知?jiǎng)�橋�?/span>1951年成為一座城市，可推測出1951年劍橋成了一座城市，所以事情的順序是dcab，故選C。

【5】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)“Many young students in other countries expect to study at Cambridge.”可知其他國家的許多年輕學(xué)生都希望到劍橋大學(xué)學(xué)習(xí)，故選C。
