I fell in love with England because it was quaint (古雅)—all those little houses, looking terribly old-fashioned but nice, like dolls’ houses. I loved the countryside and the pubs, and I loved London. I’ve slightly changed my mind after seventeen years because I think it’s an ugly town now.
Things have changed. For everybody, England meant gentlemen, fair play, and good manners. The fair play is going, unfortunately, and so are the gentlemanly attitudes and good manners—people shut doors heavily in your face and politeness is disappearing.
I regret that there are so few comfortable meeting places. You’re forced to live indoors. In Paris I go out much more, to restaurants and nightclubs. To meet friends here it usually has to be in a pub, and it can be difficult to go there alone as a woman. The cafes are not terribly nice.
As a woman, I feel unsafe here. I spend a bomb on taxis because I will not take public transport after 10 p.m. I used to use it, but now I’m afraid.
The idea of family seems to be more or less non-existent in England. My family is well united and that’s typically French. In Middlesex I had a neighbour who is 82 now. His family only lived two miles away, but I took him to France for Christmas once because he was always alone.
The writer doesn’t like London because she______.
选项
A、is not used to the life there now
B、has lived there for seventeen years
C、prefers to live in an old-fashioned house
D、has to be polite to everyone she meets there
答案
A
解析
本题问作者不喜欢伦敦的原因,考查的是对文章主旨大意的理解。作者在第一段中说她原来是非常喜欢伦敦的。但是在那儿住了17年以后却改变了看法。以下四段谈到由于看到礼貌、公共场合、安全、亲情等几个方面的变化,她对伦敦感到不那么习惯了。因此A选项is not used to the life there now为正确答案。
