In some carriages (车厢), some seats have been replaced (代替) with desks and chairs close to the windows, turning the carriages into “study carriages” for passengers (乘客) in need. The Chinese characters “Yu Yue” appear on the train. “Yu” stands for Chongqing—Huaihua Railway and “Yue” means “reading”. These two characters have the same pronunciation as “yu yue” meaning happiness in Chinese. Together, they mean “traveling and reading happily”. Besides No.5609/5610, other “slow trains” have also set up “study carriages”, including No.5619/5620 and No.5633/5634 which run along the Chengdu—Kunming Railway. Students from nearby schools often take the train between school and home. The trains are their “school buses” and many passengers use their travel time to complete homework. On the train No. Z150 which runs between Guiyang and Beijing, a “book bar” carriage has been welcomed by college students. The train No. Z150 has become the first choice for most of the students along the line. The “book bar” has provided students with a lending library, free tea and other services for free. These small measures (措施) are a welcome comfort for passengers in need of a relaxing place to go on with their studies. 根据语篇内容，选择最佳选项。 41. Why has the train No. 5609/5610 caught much attention? A. Because it is free for students. B. Because it runs slower than other trains. C. Because it has special study carriages for passengers. 42. What might be the Chinese characters “Yu Yue” on the train? A. 渝阅 B. 预约 C. 愉悦 43. Which train is students’ “school bus”? A. No.5921. B. No.5633. C. No. Z150. 44. Which of the following is NOT mentioned about the “book bar”? A.

In a storybook. B. In a newspaper. C. In a sports magazine. 【答案】41. C 42. A 43. B 44. C 45. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了5609/5610次列车引起了人们的关注，这是一趟公益性“慢火车”，车上设立“学习车厢”供旅客们在车上看书、学习。除此之外，还有一些其他列车也在设立“学习车厢”和“书吧”，为需要舒适的学习环境的乘客提供支持。 【41题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“A train in Southwest China known for its own study rooms has caught people’s much attention. The train No.5609/5610, which runs between Chongqing and Xiushan County (县)”和第二段“In some carriages (车厢), some seats have been replaced (代替) with desks and chairs close to the windows, turning the carriages into ‘study carriages’ for passengers (乘客) in need.”可知，5609/5610次列车备受关注是因为它有专门为乘客准备的学习车厢。故选C。 【42题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“The Chinese characters ‘Yu Yue’ appear on the train. ‘Yu’ stands for Chongqing—Huaihua Railway and ‘Yue’ means ‘reading’.”可知，“Yu”代表渝怀铁路，“Yue”的意思是“阅读”，由此推知，火车上的汉字是“渝阅”。故选A。 【43题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“...including No.5619/5620 and No.5633/5634 which run along the Chengdu—Kunming Railway. Students from nearby schools often take the train between school and home. The trains are their ‘school buses’”可知，5633次列车是学生的“校车”。故选B。 【44题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“On the train No. Z150, which runs between Guiyang and Beijing, a ‘book bar’ carriage has been welcomed by college students.”可知，在贵阳至北京的Z150次列车上，一节“书吧”车厢受到了大学生的欢迎。由此可知，文中并没有提到“书吧”会把书卖给有需要的学生。故选C。 【45题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文可知，火车上的“学习车厢”和“书吧”引起了人们的关注，受到了乘客的欢迎，这属于社会新闻，由此推知，可以在报纸上读到这篇文章。故选B。 六、选词填空（共10小题，每小题1.5分，共15分） 根据语篇内容，从方框中选择恰当的单词，并用其正确形式填空。将单词填写在对应的横线上。每个单词只能用一次。 long illness studied getting help us juice need or enough We all know that water is the source (源泉) of life on Earth.

D A train in Southwest China known for its own study rooms has caught people’s much attention. The train No.5609/5610, which runs between Chongqing and Xiushan County (县), is a public-welfare (公益的) “slow train”. In some carriages (车厢), some seats have been replaced (代替) with desks and chairs close to the windows, turning the carriages into “study carriages” for passengers (乘客) in need. The Chinese characters “Yu Yue” appear on the train. “Yu” stands for Chongqing—Huaihua Railway and “Yue” means “reading”. These two characters have the same pronunciation as “yu yue” meaning happiness in Chinese. Together, they mean “traveling and reading happily”. Besides No.5609/5610, other “slow trains” have also set up “study carriages”, including No.5619/5620 and No.5633/5634 which run along the Chengdu—Kunming Railway. Students from nearby schools often take the train between school and home. The trains are their “school buses” and many passengers use their travel time to complete homework. On the train No. Z150, which runs between Guiyang and Beijing, a “book bar” carriage has been welcomed by college students. The train No. Z150 has become the first choice for most of the students along the line. The “book bar” has provided students with a lending library, free tea and other services for free. These small measures (措施) are a welcome comfort for passengers in need of a relaxing place to go on with their studies. 根据语篇内容，选择最佳选项。 41. Why has the train No. 5609/5610 caught much attention?
