五、阅读理解
Utopia is a perfect place. It is a place without war, hunger, poverty, or crime. All of the people are equal in Utopia, and the laws are all fair.
Utopia is not a new place. Plato, the ancient Greek philosopher, described a perfect society in his famous dialogue The Republic. In Plato’s Republic, every person had a Zplace in the society. In 1516, Sir Thomas More wrote about an island in the Pacific Ocean where everything was perfect. He named the island “Utopia.” In 1872, Samuel Butler wrote a novel about a perfect country.
Many people came to the New World to find Utopia. Rapp, a German farmer came to the United States in 1804 to start a Utopian community. In 1815, Rapp and his followers bought land for their community in Harmony, and they made the things they needed with machines. In 1824, they sold the community to Owen, who started the Utopian community of New Harmony there. In New Harmony, everything belonged to everyone and men and women were equal, but New Harmony lasted only two years. Then Francis Wright began Nashoba, a community where white people and black people could live and work together. Nashoba lasted from 1825 to 1830. A group of intellectuals founded Brook Farm, a Utopian farming community, in 1841. However, they did not have many farming skills, so the farm closed in 1847.
Utopia is a perfect place. There is no money in Utopia because people do not need money. They do not have personal possessions because everything belongs to everyone, but it is not a real place. Most “real” Utopias last only a short time. This is because everyone wants to live in Utopia, but no one knows how to make it work. As a result, when we say something is “Utopian” today, we mean that it is a good idea, but it is not realistic.
44.According to the passage, ________ was the turst person to call a place “Utopia”.
A.Plato B.Thomas More C.Samuel Butler D.Rapp
45.The underlined word “possessions” means ________ .
A.pressure B.trouble C.wealth D.knowledge
46.What’s the main idea of Paragraph 3
A.All the triers found that Utopia also had disadvantages.
B.People spent a lot of money on Utopian communities.
C.Utopian communities made these triers very satisfied
D.None of the tryouts of Utopian communities succeeded.
47.Which of the following persons is “Utopian”
A.Amy, a middle school student who likes to write novels about a perfect world.
B.Mia, who wants to have a bright future but doesn't know how to go for it.
C.Tim, who dreams to be a presenter and makes his effort to get a job in CCTV.
D.Bush, a teenager who studies hard to realize his dream of becoming an engineer.
