　　5．Why does the farmer in Zambia hope to buy a dieselpowered pump?

　　A. Because he wants to grow crops on a larger scale.

　　B. Because he hates to leave the farm to seek fortune in cities.

　　C. Because a dieselpowered pump is cheaper than before.

　　D. Because oil is much cheaper than before.

　　[解析]　事实细节题。根据倒数第二段第二句可知答案。

　　[答案]　A

　　[长难句解读]　IDE executive director Zenia Tata says some who were able to buy diesel pumps now do not have enough money to buy fuel.

　　该句为双重复合句。主句主语为IDE executive director Zenia Tata，谓语为says，后面为省略了that的宾语从句。该宾语从句的主干部分为some do not have enoueh money to buy fuel，who were able to buy diesel pumps为定语从句，修饰主语some。

　　It was near dusk, and Kim Cooper and her husband, Steve, were trucking through northern Kentucky transportation auto parts from Louisville to Detroit for a goods company. “Steve, wake up！” she shouted. “There’s a truck on fire！”

　　Inside the burning truck, Ronnie Sanders, 38, was fighting for his life. He’d been running a heavy load of tractors and forklifts from Georgia to Indianapolis when a van in front of him stopped suddenly in traffic on the icy road. As Ronnie bore down, he could see children in the backseat. The truck’s bulk would probably protect him from the worst of the impact, but the force of 23 tons would likely crush(压碎) everyone inside the van.
