　　初三英語仔細閱讀專練題答案

　　這是一篇涉及地理方面的知識性小品文。地球上共劃分了二十四個時區，兩個相鄰的時區之間時間正好相差一個小時。因此，我們環球旅行時，就會遇到時差問題。國際日期變更線是新的一天開始的地方。穿越這條線向東去，今天就變成了昨天，向西去，今天就成了明天。

　　1.C 由句首的那一句話可知，導致這種奇怪現象的原因就是因為時區的劃分。

　　2.A 根據首句，再聯系地理方面的知識，可知時區與時區之間的時間差為一個小時。

　　3.A 根據第二段的介紹，自西向東橫渡大西洋時，因每增加一個時區，就早一個小時。即“…travelingeast, you set it ahead.”，所以答案為A。

　　4.C 段首一句說得非常清楚，“橫渡大西洋做五天的旅行”，段落末尾又說“每一天你的旅行不是二十四小時，就是二十五小時”。由此可以判斷大西洋跨五個時區。

　　5.C “…this is the point where a new day begins.”是答案的出處。
