The bridge’s construction began in December 2009 and finished in February 2018. The bridge looks like a “Y”. It can cut travel time between Hong Kong and Zhuhai from three hours to just 30 minutes. This will greatly cut down the cost and time of transportation between the mainland and Hong Kong.

【解析】

文章大意：本文主要向我们介绍了港珠澳大桥的情况和事实。

【1】细节理解题。根据The bridge’s construction began in December 2009 and finished in February 2018. 大桥于2009年12月开工，2018年2月竣工。可知建设港珠澳大桥耗时8年多，所以B选项More than 8 years.符合题意，故答案选B。

【2】细节理解题。根据It can cut travel time between Hong Kong and Zhuhai from three hours to just 30 minutes. 它可以将香港和珠海之间的旅行时间从3小时缩短到30分钟。可知，现在我们从珠海到香港要花30分钟，故答案选C。

【3】词义猜测题。根据下文Vehicles such as cars, buses and so on should pay the road toll. Vehicles比如汽车、公共汽车等应该支付道路通行费。可知Vehicles指的是“交通工具”，故答案选B。

【4】理解判断题。根据The world’s longest cross-sea bridge --- the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge, opened to public traffic at 9 a.m. on October 24. 可知10月24日上午9时，世界上最长的跨海大桥——港珠澳大桥向公众开放。而不是在晚上9时，所以A选项不符合文意，错误。根据People can pay the toll through ETC or Hong Kong express. Travelers can also pay by using Alipay, WeChat or RMB.可知，人们可以通过不同的方式支付路费，所以B选项符合文意，正确。根据We should know that the bridge adopts the right-hand traffic rules of the mainland, 我们应该知道，该桥采用了内地的右手边通行规则，可知C选项“司机不需要遵守大陆的右驾驶交通规则。”不符合文意，错误。故答案选B。

【5】文章来源题。通读全文可知，本文主要向我们介绍了港珠澳大桥的情况和事实，这些都属于新闻内容，所以我们可能在报纸上找到这段文字，故答案选A。
