這是一篇說明文，從中國的人口、食物、節(jié)日習俗、生肖和語言方面介紹了中國悠久的文化。

【1】細節(jié)理解題。根據第一段The population is over 1.3 billion.可知中國人口是13億，故選B。

【2】詞義猜測題。題干為“劃線單詞dialects的漢語意思可能是什么”。根據本段最后一句Besides Putonghua, Chinese people speak six other forms of the language,除了普通話中國人還說這種語言的六種其他形式，可以推測后文是“并且還有許多種方言”，故選C。

【3】細節(jié)理解題。題干為“根據短文，在中國主要的一種食物是什么？”。根據第二段One of the main foods in Chinese culture is rice.，故選B。

【4】推理計算題。題干為“2019年開始的這一年是______年”。根據倒數(shù)第二段These animal signs are the rat, ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, sheep, monkey, rooster, dog and pig. For example, the year that begins in 2016 is the year of the monkey.可知2016年是猴年，根據生肖排序，可知2019年是豬年，故選D。

【5】主旨大意題。根據題干“這篇短文的主旨大意是什么”。短文主要從中國的人口、食物、節(jié)日習俗、生肖和語言方面介紹了中國悠久的文化。A、D選項只是文章提及的兩個個方面，不能概括整篇文章，B項在文章中沒有提及，故選C。

在“主旨大意”題中往往存在“正確但不全面”的干擾選項�！罢�確”指：選項所述內容在文中出現(xiàn)過，內容正確，“不全面”指：選項沒有完整概括段落大意，不全面。這類題建議使用“排除法”，結合短文大意從選項中先篩除“正確但不全面”的選項，這樣選出正確答案事半功倍。例如小題5中，AD項就是正確但是不全面的選項，要排除掉，B項在文章中沒有提及，結合文章大意，只有C項符合。
