44.(10.0分)Passage 2.
Busmen have decided to go on strike next week. The strike is due to begin Tuesday. No
one knows how long it will last. The busmen have stated that the strike will continue until
general agreement is reached about pay and working conditions. Most people believe that
the strike will last for at least a week. Many owners of private cars are going to offer “free
rides” to people on their way to work. This will relieve pressure on the trains to some
extent. Meanwhile, a number of university students have volunteered to drive buses while
the strike lasts. All the students are expert drivers, but before they drive any of the buses,
they will have to pass a special test. The students are going to take the test in two days'
time. Even so, people are going to find it difficult to get to work. But so far, the public has
expressed its gratitude to the students in letters to the Press. Only one or two people have
objected that the students will drive too fast!
(单选题2.0分)How long will the strike last?()
A It will continue until next week.
B It will continue to next Tuesday.
C No one knows.
D It will last for a week.
题目解答
答案
根据文章第二段,“No one knows how long it will last.” 明确指出没有人知道罢工将持续多久。虽然大多数人都认为罢工至少会持续一周(“Most people believe that the strike will last for at least a week.”),但这并非确定性结论。选项A和B均不符合文意,选项D也未提及“至少”这一限定。因此,正确答案是C。
答案:C. No one knows.
解析
本题考查对文章细节信息的理解。解题思路是在文章中找到与罢工持续时间相关的表述,然后将各选项与原文信息进行对比分析。
- 首先,在文章中定位到关键信息 “No one knows how long it will last.”,这表明目前没有人确切知晓罢工会持续多久。
- 接着看选项A “It will continue until next week.”,文章中并没有提到罢工会持续到下周的相关内容,所以该选项不符合原文,予以排除。
- 再看选项B “It will continue to next Tuesday.”,原文同样没有提及罢工持续到下周二的信息,该选项也不正确,排除。
- 选项D “It will last for a week.”,虽然文中提到 “Most people believe that the strike will last for at least a week.”,但这只是大多数人的看法,并非确定的事实,所以该选项也不准确,排除。
