Daylight Saving Time begins on Monday, April 3, 2005. People in most parts of the United States will turn their clocks ahead one hour.
The official(正式的) time to turn your clock ahead is early in the morning, April 3. Two am becomes three am. Sunday will have only 23 hours. (Most people change their clocks before they go to sleep Sunday night. )
In the fall, people turn their clock back an hour. This saying helps people remember which way to turn the clock""Spring ahead; fall back. "(Spring and fall each have two meanings here. )
We use Daylight Saving Time in order to save electricity (电). We need one less hour of light from electricity each day in the summer.
Arizona, Hawaii, and parts of Indiana do not use Daylight Saving Time. Not every country uses Daylight Saving Time, either. Countries near the equator(赤道) have no reason to use Daylight Saving Time. Their hours of daylight and darkness are always nearly the same. There is no Daylight Saving Time in Japan, China, or India.
Countries south of the equator have quite different seasons. They are ending their Daylight Saving Time now.
Most Americans turn their clock ahead early in the morning of April 3, 2005.
选项
A、Right.
B、Wrong.
C、Doesn’t say.
答案
B
解析
题句意为“大多数美国人在2005年4月3日早上将钟表调快”。通读短文,我们发现短文第一句指出夏令时始于2005年4月3日,而第二段第一句又明确指出调整时钟的正式时间是4月3日清晨。但该段最后一句又指出,大多数美国人在周日晚上睡觉前就把钟表调好(Most people change their clocks…Sunday right),它与题句之间的差异显而易见,故题句是错误的。
