Why do many visitors come to Cambridge?
"Where is the university?" is a question many visitors to Cambridge ask, but no one can give them a clear answer for there is no wall to be found around the university. The university is the city. You can find the classroom buildings, libraries, museums and offices of the university ail over the city. And most of its members are the students and teachers or professors of the 31 colleges.
Cambridge was already a developing town long before the first students and teachers arrived 800 years ago. It grew up by the river Cranta, as Cambridge was once called. A bridge was built over the river as early as 875.
In the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries more and more land was used for college buildings. The town grew much faster in the nineteenth century after the opening of the railway in 1845. Cambridge became a city in 1951 and now it has a population of over 100,000. Many young students want to study at Cambridge. Thousands of people from all over the world come to visit the university town. It has become a famous place all around the world.
选项
A、Around the 9th century.
B、Around the 13th century.
C、Around the 15th century.
D、Around the 16th century.
答案
B
解析
本题是有关时间的间接测试题。根据文中内容“before the first students and teachers arrived 800 years ago",可知,“800年前首批学生和老师到达了这里”,从现在往前推,可算出剑桥大学在大约13世纪开始出现。因此答案应为B。
