Sounds unusual, doesnt it? But its not that unrealistic, with the development of Chinas high-speed railway system. And thats not all. China has an even greater high-speed railway planto connect the country with Southeast Asia, and eventually Eastern Europe. China is negotiating to extend its own high-speed railway network to up to 17 countries in 10 to 15 years, eventually reaching London and Singapore. China has proposed three such projects. The first would possibly connect Kunming with Singapore via Vietnam and Malaysia. Another could start in Urumqi and go through Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, and possibly to Germany. The third would start in the northeast and go north through Russia and then into Western Europe. If Chinas plan for the high-speed railway goes forward, people could zip over from London to Beijing in under two days. The new system would still follow Chinas high-speed railway standard. And the trains would be able to go 346 kilometers an hour, almost as fast as some airplanes. Chinas bullet train(高速客车), the one connecting Wuhan to Guangzhou, already has the worlds fastest average speed. It covers 1, 069 kilometers in about three hours. Of course, there are some technical challenges to overcome. There are so many issues that need to be settled, such as safety, rail gauge(轨距), maintenance of railway tracks. So, its important to pay attention to every detail. But the key issue is really money. China is already spending hundreds of billions of yuan on domestic railway expansion. China prefers that the other countries pay in natural resources rather than with capital investment. Resources from those countries could stream into China to sustain development. Itll be a win-win project. For other countries, the railway network will definitely create more opportunities for business, tourism and so on, not to mention the better communication among those countries. For China, such a project would not only connect it with the rest of Asia and bring some much-needed resources, but would also help develop Chinas far west. We foresee that in the coming decades, millions of people will migrate to the western regions, where the land is empty and resources unused. With high-speed trains, people will set up factories and business centers in the west once and for all. And theyll trade with Central Asian and Eastern European countries. 【语篇概述】本文主要介绍中国的环球高速铁路计划。4. Chinas new high-speed railway plan will be a win-win project because_. A. China will get much-needed resources and develop its western regionsB. China and the other countries involved will benefit from the project in various waysC. China will develop its railway system and communication with other countriesD. the foreign countries involved will develop their railway transportation, business and tourism【解析】选B。细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段可知, 既然是“双赢的项目”, 那么就应该是双方, 即China and the other countries involved, 所以选择B项。其余选项都是单方面的国家, 所以排除。5. According to the passage, the greatest challenge to the new high-speed railway plan is_. A. technical issuesB. safety of the systemC. financial problemsD. maintenance of railway tracks【解析】选C。细节理解题。通读全文可知文章第八、九两段都是实施中国的环球高铁计划会遇到的困难;第九段中But the key issue is really money说明了最大的困难是钱的问题(financial problems), 所以选择C项。6. Which of the following words best describes the authors attitude towards Chinas high-speed railway plan?A. Critical. B. Reserved. C. Doubtful. D. Positive. 【解析】选D。推理判断题。要求考生推断作者的态度。尽管文章第八、九段中提到困难, 但从最后两段中可以看出作者是持积极的、支持的态度(Positive)。7. Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?A. New Railway StandardsB. Big Railway DreamsC. High-speed Bullet TrainsD. International Railway Network【解析】选B。主旨大意题。通读全文可知环球高速铁路还只是计划, 是尚未实现的远大梦想(Big Railway Dreams), 所以选择B项。A项和C项只是文章中的“点”, 并不能概括大意;而D项混淆范围, 把“中国的计划”扩大成了“国际的(International)”, 所以不能选。. 完形填空Heritage EducationChinas “Cultural Heritage Day” falls on the second Saturday of June every year.
