Ⅳ. (2025·盐城亭湖区期中)阅读表达
你想象过在船上生活吗?在英国,
因房价高昂,许多人选择在船上生活以
节省开支。37 岁的音乐家利亚姆·奎
恩在船上生活了五年,享受水边美景和灵活居所。他热爱船屋生活,认为能学到技能,且邻里友善互助。
Do you know that some people in Britain
live in boats instead of houses? It's expensive to
buy a house in Britain. To save money, many
people choose to live in the "floating houses".
There are over 35,000 boats on rivers in
England and Wales in 2025. Many are people's
main homes.
Liam Quinn, a 37-year-old musician, has
lived happily on a boat for five years in London.
"I love waking up to the water and swans. One
month, I'm in the heart of the city; the next, I
stop next to cows in the countryside," he says.
A small boat costs between 50,000 pounds
(about 456,000 yuan) and 100,000 pounds.
That's cheaper than buying a flat in London. In
the richest places, the price of a flat is around
600,000 pounds.
But boat life isn't all fun. Quinn has to
move his boat every two weeks and clean the
toilet every day. Yuck! Still, Quinn loves his
watery home. "You learn to fix things and make
friends with others. Everyone is friendly and
helpful!" he says.
根据短文内容回答下列问题,每题答案不超过6个单词。
1. Why do many people in Britain live in boats?
2. Where does Quinn stop in the countryside?
3. How much is a flat in the richest places in
London?
4. How often does Quinn move his boat?
5. 中考新考法 开放式谈对在船上生活的看法 What do
you think of the life on the boat?
