问题 It can be inferred from the first paragraph that
The expression "bracing themselves for the worst" in the second paragraph probably means

选项 A、sneering at the impending difficulties.
B、cheering themselves up for the worst situation.
C、preparing themselves for the worst situation.
D、having a total disregard for the coming difficulties.

答案C

解析 本题是语义题。在该句之后,作者介绍了欧洲各国应对高温的具体措施。显然可以判断,首句是说“多数欧洲人可能没有读过Schar的报告,但是他们似乎做好了准备,应对最糟糕的情况”。后面的具体准备情况是对首句主题句的展开说明,这符合语句逻辑关系及英文段落拓展模式,故[C]为答案。这里没有表示对“困难不屑一顾”的内容,排除[A]。
