问题     It’s 8:15 in the morning. They’re having the first class.
   “May I come in, Mr. Black?” a girl says at the door.
   “Come in, please,” says Mr. Black. “You are five minutes late this morning, Lucy. It is the fourth time this week.” The girl often makes some excuses when she is late for class. Sometimes she says she doesn’t feel well, or the bus is broken on the way, or her watch is slow...So her classmates are listening to her very carefully.
   “I’m sorry, Mr. Black,” says Lucy. “I’m late because the traffic is busy and I have to wait for the lights to turn green.”
   “But why don’t you take an earlier bus?”
   “I just take the earlier bus. But it’s no use. The later bus often overtakes the earlier one!” answers Lucy.  
The word "overtake" in the text means

选项 A、超过
B、落后
C、遇见

答案A

解析 老师说:“那你为什么不坐早点的车呢?”可她的回答却是:“我是坐的早班车。可是没用。”可以猜出她的理由是后边的车超过了她的车,所以答案为A。
