George Markov was a famous writer in Bulgaria. In 1969 he suspected that he was going to be imprisoned or killed because one of his plays was regarded as being an attack on leaders of Bulgaria. Markov managed to reach England and got a job with the BBC, writing something in Bulgaria.
Some of the BBC programmes were critical of life in Bulgaria. Perhaps as a result of this, Markov received an
anonymous
telephone call warning him that he would be killed. In September 1978, Markov stopped his car in London and started to walk to his office. When he was passing a bus line, a man in the line seemed to drop his umbrella accidently. Markov felt a sudden pain in the leg.
When Markov reached his office, he spoke about the matter to a friend. A few hours later, he began to feel hot. He was sent to hospital and died four days later. The doctors examined his body, and they were puzzled about the cause of his death. Scientists were asked to help and they found a tiny metal pellet in Markov’s leg. The scientists believed that the two holes in it must contain an unknown poison in them.
A few weeks before Markov was "shot" with a poisoned pellet fired from an umbrella, another Bulgarian had the same experience in France.
Towards the end of August 1978, Kostov felt a sharp pain in the back when he was leaving a railway station in Paris. He was ill for a few days but became well. When news of Markov’s death became known, Kostov was asked to return to hospital for examination. Doctors found a tiny pellet in his back, but it had stuck in an area from which the poison had not been able to spread.
The police in both countries are still searching for the reasons why both men were attacked. They hoped to catch their attackers.
Which of the following was not mentioned in the passage?
选项
A、George Markov was working for the BBC.
B、George Markov wrote many plays at that time.
C、Kostov was "shot" with a poisoned pellet.
D、Both Kostov and George Markov died at last.
答案
D
解析
细节理解题。由第一段可排除A、B两项;由第四段可排除C项;文中说到Markov被谋杀,但是Kostov究竟最后是否死亡文中并未提及。
