课文讲解
Which river runs through the most countries? 哪一条河流流经最多国家？
(A) The Amazon River. 亚马孙河。
(B) The Danube River. 多瑙河。
(C) The Nile River. 尼罗河。
The Danube River touches ten countries in Central Europe. That's more than any other river in the world! It starts from the Black Forest of Germany and ends in Ukraine at the Black Sea. Throughout history, people relied on the Danube to survive. They used it for drinking water, catching fish for food, and traveling. Because of today's modern technology, people don't have to depend on the Danube as much as they used to. However, it is still a major historical spot and brings in many tourists.
答案是：(B) 多瑙河。
多瑙河流经中欧十个国家。此数字胜过世界上任何其他的河流。多瑙河发源于德国的黑森林，最终流经乌克兰后注入黑海。综观历史，人们生存皆需仰赖多瑙河；他们利用多瑙河汲取饮用水、捕食鱼群，以及旅行。拜现代科技所赐，人们不再像以往那般地仰赖多瑙；然而，它仍是一处重要的历史景点，并吸引许多的观光客造访。
