【解析】

試題分析：這篇短文主要講述了釣魚島的情況，包括釣魚島的地理位置，最大島嶼的面積和海拔，以及第二大島嶼的面積和海拔。釣魚島最找是由中國祖先發(fā)現(xiàn)并命名的，它是中國領(lǐng)土的一部分。

【1】D細(xì)節(jié)理解題。細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中第一段描述Diaoyu Dao and its affiliated (附屬) islands, …in the waters between 123°20’-124°40’E (東經(jīng)) and 25°40’-26°00’N (北緯).釣魚島及其附屬島嶼，位于東經(jīng)123°20’-124°40’，北緯25°40’-26°00’的水域，故此題選D。

【2】B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中第二段描述Diaoyu Dao, in the western tip of the area, covers an area of about 3.91 square kilometers and is the largest island in the area.位于這片區(qū)域西部的釣魚島，面積大約3.91平方千米，是這個區(qū)域最大的島嶼。故此題選B。

【3】A判斷推理題。根據(jù)文中第二段描述The highest part on the island stands 362 meters above the sea level. 最高的部分是海拔362米；Huangwei Yu，…the second largest island in the area, with a total area of about 0.91 square kilometers and a highest height of 117 meters.釣魚臺列嶼，該區(qū)域第二大島嶼，有1.91平方千米，最高海拔117米；從而得知它們海拔相差245米，故選A。

【4】C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。。根據(jù)文中第三段描述Ancient ancestors (遠(yuǎn)古祖先) in China first discovered and named Diaoyu Dao through their fishing activities on the sea.中國遠(yuǎn)古祖先通過在該區(qū)域捕魚而首先發(fā)現(xiàn)了該島嶼并命名為釣魚島。故此提選C。

【5】B判斷推理題。根據(jù)文中第二段描述。Huangwei Yu, which is about 27 kilometers to the northeast of Diaoyu Dao,該島嶼位于釣魚島東北部27公里，故判斷B錯誤。
