Question

The earliest historical record of the Diaoyu Islands can date back to China’s Ming Dynasty about 650 years ago in a book titled "Voyage With a Tail Wind," published in 1403. The book records the first usage of "Diaoyu Islet" and "Chiwei Islet". The names refer to the current Diaoyu Islands and Chiwei Islet. Hu Zongxian, the Zhejiang governor of the Ming Dynasty, placed the Diaoyu Islands and surrounding islets within China’s maritime defense system. It demonstrates that the islands have been within China’s maritime defense region since the Ming Dynasty.

Japan claimed sovereignty（主權） during the Sino-Japanese War of 1895, seizing the islands by illegal means.

The Cairo Declaration issued after World War II stipulated(規定) that all territory taken by Japan illegally, including China’s northeast, Taiwan and Penghu islets, must be returned to China.

In August 1945, Japan announced its unconditional surrender under the terms of the Potsdam Declaration. The declaration laid out that Japan must return Taiwan, the Diaoyu Islands and surrounding islets to China.

But the islands came under US control after 1945. In 1951, Japan and the US signed an illegal treaty in San Francisco without inviting China. The islands were then "entrusted" to Japan according to the treaty.

On September 18th, 1951, then Chinese Premier and Foreign Minister Zhou Enlai made a solemn(莊嚴的) statement on behalf of the Chinese government that the Treaty of Peace with Japan signed in San Francisco was illegal , and would not be recognized without the participation and signing of the People’s Republic of China.

In June 1971, Japan and the United States signed an agreement to hand over Okinawa to Japan. The Diaoyu Islands were mapped into the handover area.

China’s Foreign Ministry announced on December 30th 1971 that such a move was "totally illegal" and reiterated(重申) that the Diaoyu Islands and surrounding islets were "an integral part of the Chinese territory".

【解析】

試題分析：本文講述了釣魚島作為中國固有的海域，從明清以來，日本卻一直無理的與中國爭奪領海權。明清時期，中國發現釣魚島并把它納入海防系統。甲午中日戰爭，日本通過不合法手段宣稱釣魚島是日本領土。在開羅宣言和波茲坦宣言中規定日本必須將釣魚島歸還中國。在美國的操縱下，日本和美國簽署了和平條約，非法將釣魚島的海權給了日本。但受到周恩來總理的嚴正申明和平條約是非法的。因為未經中華人民共和國同意的條約。

1.maritime最有可能的意思是與“海”相關的。

2.2】推理判斷題。文中有很明確的時間信息。1403、1895、1945、1951以及1971從第一段到最后一段年份逐增，所以可推斷出這篇文章是按時間順序來寫的。

3.3】細節辨析題。定位到第四段第一句話。在1945年8月，日本在波茲坦宣言的條件下無條件投降。而不是在開羅宣言的條件下。所以選C。
