问题                    Voyage to Antarctica
    Antarctica is not an easy place to get to, but increasing numbers of people visit Antarctica every year. People join the organized voyage guided by experts that are a mixture of seasoned seafarers, and ice or wildlife experts.
    Passenger ships of many different sizes sail to Antarctica. The choice of ship can make a big difference to your journey and experience.
    First of all, Antarctic voyages are not like the other, more well-known, trips to warmer climates that have discos and other types of entertainment. The larger the ship, however, the more likely it will be that entertainment is provided.
    What you will find on the voyage are a number of experienced cruise guides working on the ship. They will tell you about various aspects of Antarctic history and natural history.
    Rules made by the International Association of Antarctic Tour Operators (IAATO) cover such things as the size of the cruise ship allowed to enter Antarctic waters and also personal conduct at landing sites in Antarctica. This is a voluntary organization and it is well respected. You should always make sure that the ship / tour company you use to go to Antarctica is a member of the IAATO. One of the main rules that will affect your visit is that only 100 passengers at any one time may be landed in any one place in Antarctica. If you are on a small ship of up to 100 passengers, then you have the chance to go ashore every time. If the ship is larger, then there will be less opportunity for landings. Surprisingly, though, there are a number of people who go to Antarctica and never leave the ship: the choice is obviously yours.
Which of the following statements might the author agree with?

选项 A、Few people are interested in Antarctica.
B、People should not leave the ship during the trip.
C、Ships going to Antarctica should obey certain rules.
D、The bigger the ship is, the better you will enjoy your trip.

答案C

解析 细节题。A选项和第一段中increasing numbers of people visit Antarctica every year矛盾;B选项和If you are on a small ship of up to 100 passengers, then you have the chance to go ashore every time矛盾;D选项和Rules made by the International Association of Antarctic Tour Operators(IAATO)cover such things as the size of the cruise ship allowed to enter Antarctic waters and also personal conduct at landing sites in Antarctica(国际南极旅游组织协会制定的规则涉及诸如什么规模的旅游船才允许进入南极水域, 个人在南极登陆点的行为规范等事项。)相矛盾, 游览船的大小是有限制的, 并非越大越好;而由刚才的这句话可以得知去南极的船必须要守规矩, 例如船的大小、在南极登陆后的个人行为方面都有相应的规定, 即C选项的内容。
