3. The underlined sentence in the text means “
”.
A. pigeons receive the best care
B. people are worried about pigeons
C. people feel displeased with pigeons
D. people show no interest in pigeons
答案解析:答案为C。本题为句意推断题。本句出现在倒数第二段的首句,也是该段的中心句(topic sentence)。结合后文 “Most neighbours are fed up with these cages ... Still, pigeons and some other birds seem less lovely to people than before”可知,人们受够了鸽子,并且鸽子和其他的鸟儿也似乎没有以往那么可爱了。这些细节都是在证明首句的中心句,表达的意思是人们对鸽子感到不愉快。故答案为C。
社会生活类
Few laws are so effective that you can see results just days after they take effect. But in the nine days since the federal cigarette tax more than doubled—to $1. 01 per pack—smokers have jammed telephone“quit lines” across the country seeking to kick the habit.
This is not a surprise to public health advocates. They’ve studied the effect of state tax increases for years, finding that smokers, especially teens, are price sensitive. Nor is it a shock to the industry, which fiercely fights every tax increase.
The only wonder is that so many states insist on closing their ears to the message. Tobacco taxes improve public health, they raise money and most particularly, they deter people from taking up the habit as teens, which is when nearly all smokers are addicted. Yet the rate of taxation varies widely.
