Rich people in Britain have been hunting foxes______.
Foxes and farmers have never got on well. These small dog-like animals have long been accused of killing farm animals. They are officially classified as harmful and farmers try to keep their numbers down by shooting or poisoning them.
(11)But some people who take part in hunting think of it as a sport:(12)they wear a special uniform of red coats and white trousers, and follow strict codes of behavior. But owning a horse and hunting regularly is expensive, so most hunters are wealthy. It is estimated that up to 100, 000 people watch or take part in fox hunting. But over the last couple of decades the number of people opposed to fox hunting has risen sharply. Nowadays it is rare for a hunt to pass off without some kind of confrontation between hunters and hunt saboteurs. Sometimes these incidents lead to violence , (13)but mostly saboteurs interfere with the hunt by misleading riders and disturbing the trail of the fox’s smell, which the dogs follow.
This year supporters of fox hunting face a much bigger threat to their sport. A Labour Party Member of the Parliament, Mike Foster, is trying to get Parliament to approve a new law which will make the hunting of wild animals with dogs illegal.(14)If the law is passed, wild animals like foxes will be protected under the ban in Britain.
选项
A、resorting to violence
B、taking legal action
C、confusing the fox hunters
D、demonstrating on the scene
答案
C
解析
语义理解题。根据句(13)可知,多数时候反对者是通过误导猎人或者混淆狐狸的气味来干扰猎狗的追踪。因此C为正确答案。
