Question

【題目】閱讀短文，并按要求完成文后小題。

A road is a bridge between two places. The Silk Road has been a bridge between East and West for more than 2,000 years.

But did you know that the Silk Road is not a single route? It is actually a series of trade and cultural transmission（傳送）routes. It started to take shape during the Western Han Dynasty. The trade route started from the city of Xi'an in Shaanxi Province and ended in eastern Europe, near today’s Turkey and the Mediterranean Sea（地中海）. The Silk Road was about 6,500 kilometers long. It went across one-fourth of the planet.

The Silk Road got its name because Chinese silk used to be carried along this road. In addition to silk, jade （玉）, tea and iron also went west to Rome. From the West came glass, gems（寶石）, and foods like carrots and sesame.

The Silk Road was very important to both China and the rest of the world. In addition trade, knowledge about science, arts and literature, as well as craftsmanship and technology, was shared across the Silk Road. In this way, languages and cultures developed and influenced each other.

Today, various historical sites along the Silk Road are popular travel destinations, such as the Terracotta Warriors（兵馬俑）in Xi’an and Mogao Grottoes（莫高窟） in Dunhuang, Gansu .A new train line, the New Orient Express, is running from Beijing across the Silk Road.

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段倒數(shù)第二句The Silk Road was about 6,500 kilometers long.可知絲綢之路大約6500千米。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段第2句In addition to silk, jade, tea and iron also went west to Rome.可知，除了絲綢，玉、茶葉和鐵器向西被運到羅馬。

【3】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段第3句From the West came glass, gems（寶石）, and foods like carrots and sesame.可知，中國人從西方獲得的有寶石和像胡蘿卜和芝麻等食物，故回答Glass, gems, and foods like carrots and sesame.。

【4】段落主旨大意題。本段的后兩句從不同方面說明了絲綢之路對增進世界經(jīng)濟和文化的交流的重要意義，所以第一句是本段的主旨句，故回答The Silk Road was very important to both China and the rest of the world.

【5】英譯漢題目。It went across one-fourth of the planet. 短語go across意為穿過；本句是一般過去時態(tài)，the planet在這里指地球。
