【解析】

本文介紹了世界各地幾個著名的廢城：美國加利福尼亞州的伯帝鎮、日本的羽島、意大利的克拉科和烏克蘭的普里皮亞季。

【1】推理判斷題。根據“Gold was first found in Bodie in 1859.”可知，伯帝鎮曾經因發現了黃金而出名。根據“Hashima is a ghost island near Japan. In 1887, people found coal (煤) there,”可知羽島曾經因發現煤而出名，因此這兩個城鎮曾經因發現自然資源而出名，故選B。

【2】推理判斷題。根據“But many earthquakes (地震) happened there every year, so the people had to move to a near town in 1963.”可知，因為在Craco每年發生許多地震，所以那里的人們搬走了，故此處表示這里沒有人，故選A。

【3】推理判斷題。根據“According to scientists, because of the nuclear accident, it will take about 20,000 years before it is open for humans.”可知，據科學家說，由于這次核事故，Pripyat將需要大約2萬年的時間才能對人類開放。因此現在去Pripyat是不安全的，故選D。

【4】推理判斷題。根據“Craco was built in the 8thcentury in southern Italy.”可知，Craco在八世紀建成，因此是一座古老的城鎮，故選C。

【5】推理判斷題。根據“You can find ghost towns (廢城) all over the world. Here are a few famous ones.”可知，本文介紹了世界各地幾個著名的廢城，因此會在雜志上關于旅游的部分看到它。故選A。

認真閱讀題干，根據題干要求，在文中尋找答案所在的語句或段落，進行分析理解、詞義猜測、推理判斷和概括歸納，選出正確的選項。例如小題1，根據“Gold was first found in Bodie in 1859.”可知，伯帝鎮曾經因發現了黃金而出名；根據“Hashima is a ghost island near Japan. In 1887, people found coal (煤) there,”可知羽島曾經因發現煤而出名，因此這兩個城鎮曾經因發現自然資源而出名，故選B。
