Question

Do you live in a city? Do you know how cities began? Long long ago, the world had only a few thousand people. These people moved from one place to another. They moved over the land, hunting (打獵) animals for food.

No one knows how or when these people learned about growing food. But when they did, their life changed. They did not have to look for food any longer. They could stay in one place and grow it.

People began to live near one another, so the first village was established. Many people came to live in the villages, and these villages became even larger.

When machines appeared, life in the villages changed again. People built factories. More and more people lived near the factories. The cities began.

Today, it’s strange that some people are moving back to small villages. Can you tell me why?

根據短文內容，判斷正(T)誤(F)。

1. People moved from place to place to hunt animals.

2. The story says, “No one knows how or when these people learned about growing food. But when they did, their life changed.” In this sentence, the word “they” means people.

3. When machines appeared, life in the villages changed again.

4. All people like to live only in big cities.

5. People built factories after the cities grew big.

試題分析：本文講述了開始時地球上人很少，慢慢地人聚集在一起形成村莊，然后建立了工廠，在工廠周圍就形成了城市。

1.根據 They moved over the land, hunting (打獵) animals for food.可知，本句是正確的。

2.本句的意思是“沒有人知道這些人是什么時候和怎樣學會種植。但是當他們學會之后，他們的生活發生了改變。”根據意思，很明顯這里的“他們”就是指的“這些人”。所以本題是正確的。

3.根據When machines appeared, life in the villages changed again可知，本句是正確的。

4.通過it’s strange that some people are moving back to small villages可知，一些人喜歡住在農村。所以本題是錯誤的。

5.通過People built factories. More and more people lived near the factories. The cities began可知，先有工廠，再有城市。所以本題是錯誤的。
