Luckily, the back tires of their car stayed on the road. Otherwise, the young couple would have driven right into a pit twenty feet wide and thirty feet deep!
The man and woman were coming home from a party. They were enjoying the landscape around Swansea, Wales. Suddenly, they found the front of their car leaning into a huge hole. The ear barely hung onto the edge of the pit. It swayed back and forth like the arm of a balance.
In their precarious position, the couple knew that each movement they made could be a matter of life and death. Slowly, slowly, they edged toward the backseat. Then each opened a back door. And on the count of three, they jumped out together. The accident was so scary that they ran a long way before they calmed down. But later they returned to see what had happened. They found that a big chunk of the road had sunk into the ground ! And at the bottom of the pit lay their ear--roof down and wheels up.
Was this mystery of the sunken road ever solved? It turned out that an abandoned mine shaft lay under the road. It had collapsed and taken the pavement with it. Layers of tunnels intersect beneath the city of Swansea. The tunnels were built so many years ago that no one knows where they end or begin. The tunnels are shaky, like those that ants build in the sand. No one knows when the entire city might collapse.
It is probably true that ______.
选项
A、the other roads in Swansea are pretty safe
B、other sections of Swansea will eave in sometime
C、everyone should move out of Swansea
D、Swansea is a very. interesting city
答案
B
解析
最后一段。这座城市的地下有座被遗弃的煤矿,煤矿坑道的倒塌带动了道路的下沉,也不知道什么时候整座城市都会倒塌。选项B是正确的。
