Chinese people often think of a rainy spring as a rather romantic time to travel as the scenery seems to be more picturesque when it rains. If you are making a plan for your spring trip, Shaoxing is the place to go.

Shaoxing is one of the most famous historical cities in China. It is known for its rich culture, and as a city of bridges, tea and scholars. A number of great scholars either were born here or spent an important part of their life in the city, including the great writer Lu Xun.

【解析】

本文介绍了中国著名的历史名城——绍兴。

【1】词意猜测题。beautiful漂亮的，优美的；boring令人厌倦的；crowded拥挤的；awful可怕的。根据第一段中“Chinese people often think of a rainy spring as a rather romantic time…”可知，中国人经常认为下雨的春天是非常浪漫的时间，所以此处是“当天下雨的时候，风景似乎更加美丽”，所以划线部分单词的意思是“漂亮的，优美的”，所以此处使用beautiful。故选A。

【2】细节理解题。根据第三段中“A number of great scholars either were born here or spent an important part of their life in the city, including the great writer Lu Xun.”可知，许多伟大的学者不是在绍兴出生，就是在绍兴度过了他们生命中重要的一部分，包括伟大的作家鲁迅，这是绍兴素有人文之都美誉的原因。故选C。

【3】细节理解题。根据第三段中“It is known for its rich culture, and as a city of bridges, tea and scholars.”和第五段中“Silk products in Shaoxing are of high quality and are very popular with tourists. Shaoxing is famous for its wine, too.”可知，绍兴以茶、丝绸生产和酒而著名，而不是以机场而著名。故选D。

【4】推理判断题。根据第一段中“If you are making a plan for your spring trip, Shaoxing is the place to go.”可知，如果你计划春天旅游，绍兴是一个去处，结合文章内容，可知这篇文章暗示了绍兴是一个值得游览的地方。故选A。
