After years of study, I have determined there are only two types of people in this world: those who get to the airport early and those who walk in just as the plane is about to take off. If there were any justice in the world, the early airport people would be rewarded for doing the right thing and the late airport people would be punished. But there is no justice. I know I have been an early airport person for years. My luggage will get on the plane first but it will be the last luggage to come off the plane when we land. You know who really gets his luggage first when we land? The late airport person, who rushes into the airport three minutes before the plane takes off. "But if I get there real real early," I told myself, "I will get the best seat." Well, no matter how early I showed up, I was always told that someone had called two or three days ahead of me and asked for that seat. The utmost embarrassment of the early airport person happened to me a few years ago when I was flying from New York to Chicago. When I got to the ticket counter, the person there said, "Sir, you have a seat on the 9:15 A.M. flight, is that right?" "Yes," I said. "Well, it’s only 7:00 A.M. flight that has not left yet. If you hurry you can make it." I was too embarrassed to say that I arrived early so I wouldn’t have to hurry. Instead, I ran down the corridor to the plane.
23. What does the speaker say about the early airport person?
24. What usually happens to the late airport person?
25. What made the speaker feel embarrassed?
选项
A、He is always in a hurry.
B、He is quick in making decisions.
C、He is always the first to arrive at the airport.
D、He usually doesn’t get the reward he deserves.
答案
D
解析
短文说世界上有两类人,然后…叙述他们的表现和遭遇。此题考查的是第一种人的遭遇。所以D正确。选项为某种人的惯常行为或遭遇。虚拟语气往往是考点。此题依据中的关键词是reward,原词包含在答案之中。
