Question

What might the future be like? Here are some predictions(預(yù)言).

Returning home during the Spring Festival is difficult for many Chinese people. More than 2 billion people travel at the same time, making buying travel tickets and the journey difficult. But 28 years later, Spring Festival travel may not be a problem at all. China plans to build more railways and a fast transportation network that will serve 90% of the population by 2020. And because most of China will be cities, people will not have to go to other places to find a job, so it will no longer be a problem.

Oil is running out faster than expected. But scientists have found something else for oil as fuel(燃料). Coal, natural gas, sun power, nuclear power(核能) and even water can take the place of oil as energy.

Schools will go electronic. Computers will be important and popular among the students. Everything will be in the computer and students will not need to bring books to school. They will find information on the Internet. A computer will be the students’ library, schoolbag and connection to the outside world. There will be robot teachers, they will check homework on computers and communicate with the students’ parents through e-mail. And school buses will be like spaceships, comfortable and safe.

試題分析：這篇短文是關(guān)于未來的幾個(gè)預(yù)言，這其中提到了到大約2020年的時(shí)候，春運(yùn)將不再像現(xiàn)在這樣緊張，國家會(huì)修建更多的鐵路滿足人們回家的需求；會(huì)有其他的能源，如煤、天然氣、太陽能等來代替石油，未來在學(xué)校里電腦會(huì)有更大的用處，甚至?xí)�有機(jī)器人老師來上課。

1.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第二段的第一句話Returning home during the Spring Festival is difficult for many Chinese people. More than 2 billion people travel at the same time, making buying travel tickets and the journey difficult.可知，春節(jié)期間，有20億多人需要同時(shí)回家，這就使得買票變得十分困難。故選C。A是圣誕節(jié)；B是國慶；D是中秋節(jié)。

2.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第二段China plans to build more railways and a fast transportation network that will serve 90% of the population by 2020可知，到2020年中國計(jì)劃修建更多的鐵路以及一條快捷交通網(wǎng)絡(luò)系統(tǒng)，這可以為90%的人服務(wù)。故選D。

3.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第三段Coal, natural gas, sun power, nuclear power(核能) and even water can take the place of oil as energy.可知，煤、天然氣、太陽能、核能甚至水有一天可以代替石油來作為能源。故我們可以看到?jīng)]有提到是B wind，風(fēng)，故選B。

4.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章最后一段There will be robot teachers, they will check homework on computers可知，將來將會(huì)有機(jī)器人老師在電腦上給學(xué)生改作業(yè)，故選C。A選項(xiàng)說春運(yùn)以后仍然是個(gè)問題，這與文章的敘述是不符的，這一問題將會(huì)得到很大的改善；B選項(xiàng)說90%的人口將會(huì)住在城市，這與文章的敘述不符；D選項(xiàng)說讀者們可以面對(duì)面的討論話題，這也雨文章的表述不符，將來人們可以通過電腦來交流。

5.段落大意題。瀏覽文章的最后一段我們可以看出，本段的中心句就是該段的第一句話，即Schools will go electronic.，學(xué)校將會(huì)電子化。這一段主要告訴我們在未來的學(xué)校中，電腦將會(huì)更廣泛的使用，學(xué)生們將會(huì)利用網(wǎng)絡(luò)學(xué)習(xí)，而且還會(huì)有機(jī)器人老師。故選A。

考點(diǎn)：科普類短文閱讀。
