灌阳县第二高级中学高三年级英语周练（9） (题型：4大题，总分：67.5分,时间：40分钟，出题人：Sunny ） 1、 任务型阅读（共4小题；每小题2.5分，满分10分） The Chinese high-speed rails have a quality all on its own, because it's so massive. There are more than twice as many high-speed trains in China as the rest of the world combined. Firstly, China's technology on building the railway is leading the rest of the world and there is no sign that any other country could surpass China's position in the near future. Secondly, China's trains are based on Japanese, German and French models. At last, the scale of Chinese high-speed train is unthinkable to other countries which has high-speed train network. I had my first opportunity to ride the high-speed trains last week when I had a business meeting in Zhengzhou. As someone who grew up with a disdain for public transportation, I was dreading the experience. I pushed hard to fly, but was told that it would be much better if I took the train. I had traveled on an Amtrak train before in the US, and hated how slow it was and how many stops there were. Chinese high-speed trains are on a different level. First, when I say they are high-speed, I mean they are high-speed. The trains are clean and the seats are huge. There are ample power outlets and you can't even feel how fast the train is moving. If there were no windows, I wouldn't be able to tell when we were stopped or when we were traveling at 300 km/h it is that smooth. The terminal in Zhengzhou looked like you could fit a million people in it. It had shops and a food court and the trains would silently pull in and out of the station perfectly on schedule. I'm traveling again this week by train and I'm excited. The high-speed trains are incredible. 1.What can we know about the passage? A. China has the most high-speed trains in the world. B. No other country will surpass China in building the high speed railway. C. China makes high-speed trains all by itself. D. China ranks first in the high-speed rails development from the very beginning
