Answer 1

【答案】

【1】There were about six billion people. / About six billion people. / About 6,000,000,000 people.

【2】I live in Asia. / Asia.

【3】科學家們預測，到2025年世界上將會有78億人。

【4】How many main oceans does the world have?

【5】Not all land is good for people.

【解析】

本文介紹了世界土地劃分和人口。2000年世界人口達到60億。世界上三分之一是陸地。世界上有七大洲四大洋，但是并不是所有的土地都適合人們。

【1】根據“In the year 2000, the world's population was about six billion. That's 6,000,000,000!”可知2000年，世界人口大約60億。故答案為There were about six billion people. / About six billion people. / About 6,000,000,000 people.

【2】根據“There are seven continents：Africa, Asia, Oceania, Europe, North America, South America and Antarctica.”可知七大洲包括：亞洲、歐洲、北美洲、南美洲、南極洲、非洲、大洋洲。題目問“你住在哪個洲”，參加考試的都是住在中國的，因此是亞洲。故答案為I live in Asia. / Asia.

【3】by作時間介詞意為“到……之前”；此句是賓語從句，scientists“科學家”作主語；謂語動詞predict意為“預測”；從句主語the world意為“世界”；will是一般將來時標志；have表示“有”；billion意為“十億”；people意為“人們”。故答案為科學家們預測，到2025年世界上將會有78億人。

【4】“The world has four main oceans. ”中four為個數，對four提問用How many引導的特殊疑問句，此處has為實義動詞，改為疑問句，助動詞does提前。故答案為How many main oceans does the world have?

【5】此句是主系表結構，Not all land意為“不是所有的大陸”；be good for表示“對……有好處；適合于”，land作主語，be動詞用is；people意為“人們”。故答案為Not all land is good for people.
