3．The new high-speed railway line between Urumqi，capital of the Xinjiang Uygur self-governing region，and Lanzhou，capital of Gansu province，has cut train travel time by half to less than 12hours．The dramatic improvement will benefit many families planning reunions for Spring Festival．
"For the first time，I feel home is not that far away after all，"said Liang Shaofu as he boarded a high-speed train in Urumqi with six members of his family．
The 35-year-old left Lanzhou to set up a dry fruit business in Xinjiang eight years ago，and he has now settled in Urumqi．
The 1，776-km line，which passes through Qinghai province and is the country's first high-speed railway to be built in a high-altitude region，came into service on Dec 26．
"We normally drive home for Spring Festival to avoid the difficulties of buying seven train tickets for the whole family during the peak season，"Liang said．"Driving can be very tiring and dangerous sometimes，so one year we even decided not to go back to Lanzhou simply to avoid the trip．
More than 600，000passengers traveled on the line during its first month，and the Urumqi Railway Bureau said the introduction of high-speed services will ease transport pressure during the Spring Festival peak season．
The existing usual railway line could no longer support Xinjiang's development．All passenger trains will gradually shift to the new link，leaving the old one to be used for goods．As a result，Xinjiang's annual goods ability could reach 200million metric tons from the current 70million．
The line passes through areas that experience high winds，and it also crosses parts of the deserted Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and the bone-dry sands of the Gobi Desert．
The project could help China to promote its high-speed railway technology abroad，said Ma Xizhang，director of the Lanzhou-Xinjiang railway project's management department in Xinjiang．
24．How long did it take to go from Urumqi to Lanzhou by the usual train before？D

分析 本文是一篇说明文，讲述了乌鲁木齐到兰州之间的高速铁路修建，使得距离缩短了12小时．从此人们的出行变的越来越方便了．
解答 24．D．细节理解题．根据第一段"The new high speed railway line between Urumqi，capital of the Xinjiang Uygur self-governing region，and Lanzhou，capital of Gansu province，has cut train travel time by half to less than 12 hours．"可知用时是以前的一半，并说减少到了不到十二小时，故得知原来用时不到二十四小时，故选D．
25．D．推理判断题．根据第八段"As a result，Xinjiang's annual goods ability could reach 200 million metric tons from the current 70 million．"可知新铁路的建设是新疆的商品流通量从7千万吨达到2亿吨，铁路帮助了新疆的发展．故选D．
26．B．细节理解题．根据最后一段"The project could help China to promote its high speed railway technology abroad"可知这个项目能够帮助国外铁路建设．故选B．
27．C．推理判断题．根据梁的话"Driving can be very tiring and dangerous sometimes"可知以前开车从乌鲁木齐到兰州很累而且可能发生危险，C项正确；根据第一段可知这条高铁建在乌鲁木齐和兰州之间，所以不是方便所有人回家，故A项不对；根据"The dramatic improvement will benefit many families planning reunions for Spring Festival．"可知这条线路是为了缓解春运压力，B项不对；文中提到人们在春运高峰不方便回家，并不是很少回去，D不对．故选C．
