【解析】

本文介绍了世界各地几个著名的废城：美国加利福尼亚州的伯帝镇、日本的羽岛、意大利的克拉科和乌克兰的普里皮亚季。

【1】推理判断题。根据“Gold was first found in Bodie in 1859.”可知，伯帝镇曾经因发现了黄金而出名。根据“Hashima is a ghost island near Japan. In 1887, people found coal (煤) there,”可知羽岛曾经因发现煤而出名，因此这两个城镇曾经因发现自然资源而出名，故选B。

【2】推理判断题。根据“But many earthquakes (地震) happened there every year, so the people had to move to a near town in 1963.”可知，因为在Craco每年发生许多地震，所以那里的人们搬走了，故此处表示这里没有人，故选A。

【3】推理判断题。根据“According to scientists, because of the nuclear accident, it will take about 20,000 years before it is open for humans.”可知，据科学家说，由于这次核事故，Pripyat将需要大约2万年的时间才能对人类开放。因此现在去Pripyat是不安全的，故选D。

【4】推理判断题。根据“Craco was built in the 8thcentury in southern Italy.”可知，Craco在八世纪建成，因此是一座古老的城镇，故选C。

【5】推理判断题。根据“You can find ghost towns (废城) all over the world. Here are a few famous ones.”可知，本文介绍了世界各地几个著名的废城，因此会在杂志上关于旅游的部分看到它。故选A。

认真阅读题干，根据题干要求，在文中寻找答案所在的语句或段落，进行分析理解、词义猜测、推理判断和概括归纳，选出正确的选项。例如小题1，根据“Gold was first found in Bodie in 1859.”可知，伯帝镇曾经因发现了黄金而出名；根据“Hashima is a ghost island near Japan. In 1887, people found coal (煤) there,”可知羽岛曾经因发现煤而出名，因此这两个城镇曾经因发现自然资源而出名，故选B。
