Question

Do you live in a city? Do you know how cities began? Long long ago, the world had only a few thousand people. These people moved from one place to another. They moved over the land, hunting animals for food.

No one knows how or when these people learned about growing food. But when they did， their lives changed. They did not have to look for food any longer. They could stay in one place and grow it. People began to live near one another, so the first village was established. Many people came to work in the villages, and these villages became even larger.

When machines appeared, life in the villages changed again. People built factories. More and more people lived near the factories. The cities began.

Today, it’s strange that some people are moving back to small villages. Can you tell me why?

【解析】

试题分析：

1.根据These people moved from one place to another. They moved over the land, hunting animals for food.可知该句表述正确。

2.人称代词一般可以提到上文提到的人或者物，根据上文No one knows how or when these people可知they指的就是前面提到的people。

3. 根据When machines appeared, life in the villages changed again.可知文中说的是村庄，本句说的是城市，故表述错误。

4. More and more people不等于全部人口，故本句表述错误。

5.根据短文描述建造工厂不是城市变大的原因，不是结果，故本句表述错误。
