剑桥雅思Test阅读解析

剑桥雅思7 Test 3 阅读解析READING PASSAGE 1You should spend about 20 minutes on Questions 1-13; which are based on Reading Passage 1 below.Ant IntelligenceWhen we think of intelligent members of the animal kingdom; the creatures that spring immediately to mind are apes and monkeys. But in fact the social lives of some members of the insect kingdom are sufficiently complex to suggest more than a hint of intelligence. Among these; the world of the ant has come in for considerable scrutiny仔细检查lately; and the idea that ants demonstrate sparks of cognition认识力has certainly not been rejected by those involved in these investigations.重要词组spring to sb's mindif someone or something springs to mind; you immediately think of themTwo questions spring to mind.Ants store food; repel attackers and use chemical signals to contact one another in case of attack. Such chemical communication can be compared to the human use of visual and auditory听觉的channels as in religious chant s圣歌;赞美诗; advertising images and jingle s叮当声; political slogans and martial music军乐 to arouse and propagate传播moods and attitudes. The biologist Lewis Thomas wrote; Ants are so much like human beings as to be an embarrassment. They farm fungi菌类; raise aphid s蚜虫 as livestock; launch armies to war; use chemical sprays to alarm and confuse使糊涂enemies; capture slaves; engage in child labour; exchange information ceaselessly. They do everything but watch television.However; in ants there is no cultural transmission — everything must be encoded in the genes — whereas in humans the opposite is true. Only basic instincts are carried in the genes of a newborn baby; other skills being learned from others in the community as the child grows up. It may seem that this cultural continuity连续性gives us a huge advantage over ants. They have never mastered fire nor progressed. Their fungus farming and aphid herding crafts are sophisticated when compared to the agricultural skills of humansfive thousand years ago but have been totally overtaken by modern human agribusiness农业综合企业.Or have they The farming methods of ants are at least sustainable. They do not ruin environments or use enormous amounts of energy. Moreover; recent evidence suggests that the crop farming of ants may be more sophisticated and adaptable than was thought.Ants were farmers fifty million years before humans were. Ants can't digest the cellulose纤维素in leaves —but some fungi can. The ants therefore cultivate these fungi in their nests; bringing them leaves to feed on; and then use them as a source of food. Farmer ants secrete 分泌 antibiotic s抗菌素 to control other fungi that might act as 'weeds'; and spread waste to fertilise the crop.It was once thought that the fungus that ants cultivate was a single type that they had propagated; essentially unchanged from the distant past. Not so. Ulrich Mueller of Maryland and his colleagues genetically screened 862 different types of fungi taken from ants'nests. These turned out to be highly diverse: it seems that ants are continually domesticat ing驯养 new species. Even more impressively; DNA analysis of the fungi suggests that the ants improve or modify the fungi by regularly swap ping and sharing strains with neighbouring ant colonies.重要词组swapalso swop / sw p; swɑp/ v-pp-infml 口~ sth with sb;~ sb sth for sth; ~ sth over/round give sth in exchange for sth else; substitute sth for sth else 以某物交换他物; 以此物代替彼物: Your book looks more interesting than mine: do you want to swap with me 你的书好像比我的有意思; 你愿意和我交换吗They swapped ie told each other stories about their army days. 他们互相讲述了他们在军队中的经历. I'll swap you my Michael Jackson tape for your Bruce Springsteen album. 我想用迈克尔杰克逊的录音带交换你的布鲁斯.斯普林斯廷唱片集. She swapped our chairs round; so I had hers and she had mine. 她把我们俩的椅子对调了; 因此我坐的是她的; 她坐的是我的. I wouldn't swap places with him for anything; ie would not wish to be in his situation. 我说什麽也不愿意处於他的地位.Whereas prehistoric man had no exposure to urban lifestyles — the forcing house of intelligence — the evidence suggests that ants have lived in urban settings for close on a hundred million years; developing and maintaining underground cities of specialised专门的;特定职能的chambers and tunnels.When we survey Mexico City; Tokyo; Los Angeles; we are amazed at what has been accomplished by humans. Yet Hoelldobler and Wilson's magnificent work for ant lovers; The Ants; describes a supercolony of the ant Formica yessensis石狩红蚁on the Ishikari Coast of Hokkaido. This 'megalopolis'巨大都市was reported to be composed of 360 million workers and a million queens living in 4;500 interconnected nests across a territory of 2.7 square kilometres.Such enduring and intricately复杂地meshed levels of technical achievement outstrip胜过by far anything achieved by our distant ancestors. We hail as masterpieces the cave paintings in southern France and elsewhere; dating back some 20;000 years. Ant societies existed in something like their present form more than seventymillion years ago. Beside this; prehistoric man looks technologically primitive. Is this then some kind of intelligence; albeit虽然即使 of a different kind重要词组Hail ~ sb/sth as sth enthusiastically acknowledge sb/sth as sth 热情地承认某人某事物为...: crowds hailing him as king; as a hero 拥他为王﹑赞他为英雄的群众fig 比喻The book was hailed as a masterpiece/as masterly. 这本书被誉为杰作重点词汇albeit/ l bi t; lˋbi t/ conj dated or fml 旧或文 although 虽然; 尽管:I tried; albeit unsuccessfully; to contact him. 尽管并未与他联系上; 可是我已经尽力而为了.He accepted the job; albeit with some hesitation.Chris went with her; albeit reluctantly.Research conducted at Oxford; Sussex and ZOrich Universities has shown that when desert ants return from a foraging搜寻粮草trip; they navigate by integrating bearing s 方位and distances; which they continuously update in their heads. They combine the evidence of visual landmarks with a mental library of local directions; all within a framework which is consulted and updated. So ants can learn too.And in a twelve-year programme of work; Ryabko and Reznikova have found evidence that ants can transmit very complex messages. Scouts 侦查兵 who had located food in a maze returned to mobilise动员 their foraging teams. They engaged in contact sessions; at the end of which the scout was removed in order to observe what her team might do. Often the foragers proceeded to the exact spot in the maze where the food had been. Elaborate精细的; 精心的precaution s预防措施were taken to prevent the foraging team using odour clues. Discussion now centres on whether the route through the maze is communicated as a 'left- right' sequence序列; 顺序of turns or as a 'compass bearing and distance' message.During the course of this exhaustive详尽的; 彻底的study; Reznikova has grown so attached to her laboratory ants that she feels she knows them as individuals — even without the paint spots used to mark them. It's no surprise that Edward Wilson; in his essay; 'In the company of ants'; advises readers who ask what to do with the ants in their kitchen to: 'Watch where you step. Be careful of little lives’Questions 1-6Do the following statements agree with the information given in Reading Passage 1 In boxes 1-6 on your answer sheet; writeTRUEif the statement agrees with the informationFALSEif the statement contradicts the informationNOT GIVENif there is no information on this1 Ants use the same channels of communication as humans do.FALSE2 City life is one factor that encourages the development of intelligence.TRUE3 Ants can build large cities more quickly than humans do.NOT GIVEN4 Some ants can find their way by making calculations based on distance and position.TRUE5 In one experiment; foraging teams were able to use their sense of smell to find food.FALSE6 The essay; 'In the company of ants'; explores ant communication. NOT GIVENQuestions 7-13Complete the summary using the list of words; A-0; below.Write the correct letter; A-0; in boxes 7-13 on your answer sheet.Ants as farmersAnts have sophisticated methods of farming; including herding livestock and growing crops; which are in many ways similar to those used in human agriculture.

Test2Question 1答案：isolation关键词：6800/variety of language/geographical定位原文：第3段第1句“Isolation breeds linguistic diversity: as a result, the world is peppered with languages spoken by only a few people.”解题思路：根据这句话可知,语言多样性是由于地理上(de)isolation.Question 2答案：economic globalization/globalization/socio-economic pressures关键词：government/huge decrease定位原文：第5段第4句“…the deadliest weapon is not government policy but economic pressures...”解题思路：本题目要看清楚问(de)是语言消失(de)原因,and表示并列,因此空中应该填与government initiatives对等(de)原因,而文中第五段前半部分提到政府政策对语言(de)影响,但是科学家们也指出,真正致命(de)原因是社会经济压力.Question 3答案：cultural identity关键词：Increasing appr eciation/language classes定位原文：第7段第2句话“But a growing interest in cultural identity may prevent the direst predictions from coming true.”解题思路：“increasing appreciation”和文中(de)“growing interest”是同义替换,故正确答案是cultural identity.”Question 4答案：traditional skill关键词：‘apprentice’/teach/a定位原文：第7段倒数第4句“Volunteer 'apprentices' pair up with one of the last living speakers of a Native American tongue to learn a traditional skill such as basket weaving, with instruction exclusively in the endangered language.”解题思路：“apprentice”做为定位词,题干这句话(de)意思是在学徒计划中,濒危语言被用来作为载体来教授人们一种……,文中(de)“learn”与“teach”在意思上有关联,而不定冠词“a”之后要填一个专有名词.Question 5答案：E关键词：more than one...定位原文：第7段第4句“Most of these languages will not survive without a large bilingualism…”解题思路：题干这句话正好跟文中这句话表达(de)是相同(de)意思,而文中有这个观点(de)正是E选项.Question 6答案：B关键词：in itself定位原文：“But Mufwene says that preventing a language dying out is not the same as giving it new life by using it every day.”解题思路：通过这句话可以推测,保护语言本身并不是目标,如何让语言活起来才是真正目(de).故正确答案为B.Question 7答案：D关键词：think/determine定位原文：第6段倒数第2句“‘Your brain and mine are different from the brain of someone who speaks French, for instance,’ Pagel says, and this could affect our thoughts and perceptions. ‘The patterns and connections we make among various concepts may be structured by the linguistic habits of our community.’”解题思路：这句话话当中提到了说英语(de)人(de)大脑与说法语(de)人大脑(de)不同,随后提出语言会影响我们(de)想法和观点.Question 8答案：C关键词：reject/established/way of life定位原文：第4段最后一句“People lose faith in their culture, When the next generation reaches their teens, they might not want to be induced into the old traditions.”解题思路：题干句子意思是“年轻人经常会拒绝接受社会约定俗成(de)生活方式”,正好与文中这句话“语言(de)转化意味着传统文化(de)消失”表达(de)意思一致.Question 9答案：B关键词：loss定位原文：第6段第2句“If a person shifts from Navajo to English, they lose something…”解题思路：文中(de)shift等同于题目当中(de)change,而传统文化(de)存在正意味着人们可以采用不同(de)观点来看待这个世界.Question 10答案：NO关键词：Navajo定位原文：第3段第4句话“Navajo is considered endangered despite having 150,000 speakers. What makes a language endangered is not just the number of speakers, but how old they are.”解题思路：这句话说有15万人在使用那瓦霍语,证明使用者并不是很少,在接下来(de)一句话当中,作者又表明使语言濒临灭绝(de)真正原因并不是说(de)人少,而是说(de)人太老.Question 11答案：YES关键词：a large number of定位原文：第3段第4句话“Navajo is considered endangered despite having 150,000 speakers.”解题思路：根据文中给出(de)证据,即有15万人说那瓦霍语,但是这门语言仍然濒临灭绝,作者推出了题中(de)结论,这个结论是正确(de).Question 12答案：NOT GIVEN关键词：government定位原文：第5段解题思路：文中第五段提到了政府,主要是指出政府(de)政策也是导致语言濒危(de)原因,但是此后就并未对政府(de)作用再多做叙述,而是转而论述社会经济压力(de)重要性.本题是典型(de)节外生枝型.Question 13答案：YES关键词：linguistic diversity定位原文：第7段第1句“So despite linguists' best efforts, many languages will disappear over the next century.”解题思路：这句话表明尽管语言学家已经竭尽全力,但是许多语言到了下个世纪还是会消失.这句话就表明语言多样性(de)消失是不可避免(de).Question 14答案：C关键词：Western定位原文：第1段第1句“Australia has been unusual in the Western world in having a very conservative attitude to natural or alternative therapies, according to Dr Paul Laver, a lecturer in Public Health at the University of Sydney.”解题思路：A答案说澳大利亚医生与制药公司关系紧密,属于完全未提及型答案.B答案认为澳大利亚医生总是和其他医师一同工作,与文中所说(de)事实恰好相反.D答案说澳大利亚医生会开出另类处方,这也是不正确(de).只有C答案与文章叙述相符.Question 15答案：B关键词：Americans定位原文：第1段倒数第1句“Americans made more visits to alternative therapists than to orthodox doctors in 1990, and each year they spend about $US 12 billion on therapies that have not been scientifically tested.”解题思路：文中这句话说1990年美国人去看另类疗法医师(de)次数比去看传统医生(de)次数还多.所以答案B是正确(de).而A、C和D答案中提到(de)比较关系并不存在.Question 16答案：YES关键词：20 years定位原文：第2段第1句“Disenchantment with orthodox medicine has seen the popularity of alternative therapies in Australia climb steadily during the past 20 years.”解题思路：在过去20年中,由于人们对传统医疗不再迷信,另类疗法在澳大利亚慢慢流行起来.这句话就证明在过去20年里,比以往更多(de)澳大利亚人开始相信另类疗法.Question 17答案：NO关键词：1983/1990/ a further 8%定位原文：第2段第2句话和第3句话“In a 1983 national health survey, 1.9% of people said they had contacted a chiropractor, naturopath, osteopath, acupuncturist or herbalist in the two weeks prior to the survey. By 1990, this figure had risen to 2.6% of the population.”解题思路：在1983年(de)调査中,约有1.9%(de)人说他们曾经看过另类疗法医师,到了1990年,这个数字上升到了总人口(de)2.6%.如果做减法(de)话,实际上人数上升了将近0.7个百分点,因此题目中所说(de)增加8%是错误(de).Question 18答案：YES关键词：550,000定位原文：第2段第4句话“The 550,000 consultations with alternative therapists reported in the 1990 survey represented about an eighth of…”解题思路：题干这句话刚好和定位句(de)“The 550,000 consultations with alternative therapists”表达(de)是同样(de)意思,因此是正确(de).Question 19答案：YES关键词：had a higher opinion of...定位原文：第2段最后一句“The high standing of professionals, including doctors, has been eroded as a consequence.”解题思路：这句话说(de)是包括医生在内(de)专业人士(de)崇高地位也就大打折扣.这句话(de)含义就是澳大利亚人以前对医生等专业人士有较高(de)评价,而现在这种观点已经遭受损害.Question 20答案：YES关键词：Australian doctors定位原文：第3段第1句“Rather than resisting or criticising this trend, increasing numbers of Australian doctors, particularly younger ones, are forming group practices with alternativetherapists or taking courses themselves, particularly in acupuncture and herbalism.”解题思路：这句话表明澳大利亚正统医生正在接受另类疗法培训,相对于以前他们接受(de)正统医疗培训来说,这次培训无疑是一种再培训.Question 21答案：NOT GIVEN关键词：salaries定位原文：第3段解题思路：并不存在(de)比较关系是TRUE/FALSE/NOT GIVEN题解题(de)一条黄金法则.尤其当作者将两者进行简单肤浅比较(de)时候,一般答案都是NOT GIVEN.文中没有任何地方提到两种医生(de)薪水,因此正确答案是NOT GIVEN.Question 22答案：YES关键词：1993/289定位原文：第4段首句和第二句“In 1993, Dr Laver and his colleagues published a survey of 289 Sydney people who attendedeight alternative therapists' practices in Sydney. These practices offered a wide range of alternative therapies from 25 therapists.”解题思路：89名病患去看病(de)这8家诊所提供各种各样(de)另类疗法服务,这其中也许包括针灸疗法,但是如果说这289名病人都是去做针灸(de),就未免有些以偏概全了.Question 23答案：NO关键词：1993/long-term定位原文：第4段第3句“Those surveyed had experienced chronic illnesses, for which orthodox medicine had been able to provide little relief.”解题思路：chronic是“长期(de),慢性(de)”意思,complaints在此处不是“抱怨,投诉”(de)意思,而是指疾病.Question 24答案：emotional/emotional problems关键词：10%-15%定位原文：第5段第1句“12% suffer from digestive problems, which is only 1% more than those suffering from emotional problems.”解题思路：目测该数字应该在10%和15%之间,在第五段寻找这样一个数字,结果发现12%所对应(de)是digestive一词,但是,很快我们会发现Digestive已经出现在了表格上,所以答案应该是比12%少一个百分点(de)emotional/emotional problems.Question 25答案：headache关键词：5%-10%定位原文：第5段最后一句“Headache sufferers and those complaining of general ill health represent 6% and 5% of patients respectively…”解题思路：该疾病所对应(de)数字应该在5%和10%之间,而且应该比第26空更接近10%.所以可以回第五段找两个相近并且都接近10%(de)数字,结果发现了6%和5%,故此空应该填：headache.Question 26答案：general ill health关键词：5%定位原文：第5段最后一句“Headache sufferers and those complaining of general ill health represent 6% and 5% of patients respectively…”解题思路：该疾病对应数字是5%,故应该填general ill health.Question 27答案：H关键词：unusual connection定位原文：H段最后1句“By allowing link-ups between brain areas that might not normally communicate with each other, play may enhance creativity.”解题思路：link-up等于connection,后面(de)play may enhance creativity证明这种不寻常(de)联系是有好处(de).Question 28答案：F关键词：record/time定位原文：F段第2句“If you plot the amount of time...”解题思路：这个heading(de)意思是由记录小动物玩耍(de)时间而得到(de)见解,关键词是时间,回到文章当中寻找对应词时,只有这个段落提到了时间.plot一词是用图表记录(de)意思,在这里就等同于record.Question 29答案：A关键词：physical hazard定位原文：A段第4句之后“For a start, play can even cost animals their lives. Eighty per cent of deaths among juvenile fur seals…”解题思路：问题是问哪一段包含有对玩要带来(de)危险(de)描述.文章中只有在第一段中谈到了玩要可能带来(de)危险,而且还举出了小海狗(de)例子来说明这种危险(de)存在.Question 30答案：H关键词：mental/exercise/develop定位原文：H段前3句“Not only is more of the brain involved in play than was suspected, but it also seems to activate higher… and rules.”解题思路：mental activity是大脑活动(de)意思,问题问(de)是在玩耍过程当中,哪些大脑活动得到了练习和发展.Question 31答案：I关键词：effects/reduction定位原文：I段首句和2句“What might further experimentation…with their peers.”解题思路：问题问得是哪一段包含了这样(de)内容：减少玩耍机会可能对儿童造成(de)影响.在最后一段中,作者谈到了被剥夺了玩耍机会(de)小老鼠大脑就发育(de)不好,并且用一个设问句表明了他对人类儿童(de)忧虑.而且一般来讲,含有effect(de)段意都是对应文章(de)最后一段.Question 32答案：B关键词：class/animals定位原文：B段第4句“Playfulness, it seems, is common only among mammals...”解题思路：B段中提到了玩要在哺乳动物中很普遍,而且在有些鸟类当中也存在,即提到了各种各样(de)动物.一些同学会在E段当中看到fifteen orders of mammals一词,不过仔细读下来,E段(de)主要意思是在讲哺乳动物中大脑大小和玩耍之间(de)关系,并不是说玩耍对哪种动物重要.故答案选B.Question 33-35答案：ACF(IN EITHER ORDER)Question 33答案：A关键词：rehearsal/adult定位原文：B段倒数第2句“A popular explanation of play has been that it helps juvenile develop the skills they will need to hunt, mate and socialize as adults.”解题思路：这段中提到了帮助青少年培养作为成年人需要(de)一些技能,所以A选项正确.Question 34答案：C关键词：build up strength定位原文：B 段最后一句“Another has been that it allows young animals to get in shape for adult life...”解题思路：“使年轻(de)动物保持体形”与C选项对应.Question 35答案：F关键词：organ growth定位原文：E段首句：“...reported that there is a strong positive link between brain size and playfulness…”解题思路：“在脑部大小与玩耍之间有正面(de)关联”与F选项对应.Question 36答案：B关键词：Robert Barton定位原文：E段倒数第2句和末句“Robert Barton of Durham University …I concluded it's to do with learning,and with the importance of environmental data to...”解题思路：Barton认为玩耍与学习有关,也与大脑发育过程中环境资料(de)重要性有关.Environmental data可以与physical surroundings 对应.Question 37答案：G关键词：Marc Becoff定位原文：G 段第4句“Bekoff likens it to a behavioural kaleidoscope...”解题思路：Becoff将玩耍比喻为一个行为万花筒,这句话也就是说在玩耍当中动物会做出各种各样(de)举动,正好和G选项中(de)a wide range of相对应.Question 38答案：E关键词：John Byers定位原文：C段第2句“Byers points out that the benefits of increased exercise disappear rapidly after training stops, so...”解题思路：Byers认为训练一结束,由增强训练所带来(de)好处就跟着迅速消失了,无论什么种群(de)动物,玩耍都倾向于在哺乳期(de)中期达到顶峰,然后则开始走了下坡路.这就与E答案观点—致.Question 39答案：D关键词：Sergio Pellis定位原文：E段第1句“...reported that there is a strong positive link between brain size and playfulness among mammals in general.”解题思路：Pellis认为哺乳动物(de)玩耍量与他们大脑(de)大小往往成正比.所以玩耍比较少(de)动物脑子也比较小.Question 40答案：A关键词：Stephen Siviy定位原文：H段第6句“Siviy studied how bouts of play affected the brain's levels of a particular chemical associated with..”解题思路：Siviy认为玩耍能够影响大脑中一种特殊化学物质,这种物质会刺激神经细胞生长.答案选A.。

段落选标题+判断题5. 题目解析questions 1-7 段落选标题List of HeadingsI The search for the reasons for an increase in populationII Industrialization and the fear of unemploymentIII The development of cities in JapanIV The time and place of the Industrial RevolutionV The cases of Holland, France and ChinaVI Changes in drinking habits in BritainVII Two keys to Britain’s industrial revolutionVIII Conditions required for industrializationIX Comparisons with Japan lead to the answer1 Paragraph A: 答案为IV, 工业革命的时间和地点。

根据第一段“Why did this particular Big Bang-the world-changing birth of industry-happen in Britain? And why did it strike at the end of the 18th century?意思为：为何在英国出现？为何在18世纪出现？2 Paragraph B: 答案为VIII, 工业革命所需要的条件。

根据第二段“For industry to take off, there needs to be the technology and power to drive factories, large urban populations to provide cheap labor, easy transport to move goods around, and affluent middle-class willing to buy mass-produced objects, a market-driven economy and a political system that allows this to happen.”意思为：技术，人口，交通，富裕的中产阶级，市场经济和政治体制会有助于工业革命的出现。

3 Paragraph C：答案为VII, 英国工业革命的两个关键。

根据第三段“The missing factors, he proposes, are to be found in almost every kitchen cupboard, Tea and beer, two of the nation’s favorite drinks, fuelled the revolution.”意思为：厨房柜橱里的茶和啤酒加速了革命的出现。

4 Paragraph D: 答案为I, 人口增加原因的探寻。

根据第四段“Between about 1650 and 1740, the population in Britain was static. But then there was a burst in population growth. Macfarlane says: ‘The infant mortality rate halved in the space of 20 years, and this happened in both rural areas and cities, and across all classes. People suggested four possible causes.”意思为：1650和1740年之间人口基本没变，然后出现大的变化。

人们觉得有四种原因。

5 Paragraph E：答案为VI, 英国喝酒习惯的变化。

根据第五段“We drank bear. For a long time, the English were protected by the strong antibacterial agent in hops, which were added to help preserve the beer. But in the late 17th century a tax was introduced on malt, the basic ingredient of beer. The poor turned to water and gin and in the 1720s the mortality rate began to rise again.”意思为：之前和啤酒是因为酒中放了抗菌的药剂，但是后来对麦芽征税，所以人们改喝水和杜松子酒。

6 Paragraph F: 答案为IX, 与日本比较后得出的结论。

根据第六段“Macfarlane looked to Japan, which was also developing large cities about the same time, and also had no sanitation. Water-borne diseases had a much looser grip on the Japanese population than those in Britain.”意思为：和同时在发展大城市的日本相比，英国人得病的情况要比日本严重。

7 Paragraph G: 答案为II, 工业化和失业的恐惧。

根据第七段“Macfarlane notes that even though 17th century Japan had large cities, high literacy rates, even a futures market, it had turned its back on the essence of any work-based revolution by giving up labor-saving devices such as animals, afraid that they would put people out of work.”意思为：即使日本在17世纪出现的城市发展，文化程度高，良好发展的期货市场，仍旧恐惧人们会失业的问题。

questions 8-13 判断题8 China’s transport system was not suitable for industry in the 18th century.9 Tea and beer both helped to prevent dysentery in Britain.10 Roy Porter disagrees with Professor Macfarlane’s findings.11 After 1740, there was a reduction in population in Britain.12 People in Britain used to make beer at home.13 The tax on malt indirectly caused a rise in the death rate.8 通过in the 18th century和China定位到第二段倒数第二句。

After all, Holland had everything except coal, while China also had many of these factors.荷兰除了没有煤炭其它都有，中国也有这些因素中的很多。

文中并没有提到中国的交通系统在18世纪不适合工业发展。

所以答案为NOT GIVEN9 通过Tea and beer还有dysentery定位到第三段第二句。

Allowed urban communities to flourish at close quarters without succumbing to water-borne diseases such as dysentery. 茶叶和啤酒可以帮助战胜痢疾这样的疾病。
