问题 The fastest transatlantic voyage by a packet mentioned by the author was from ______ .
Which of the following was most important in the development of the fast packets?
选项 A、The increase in the number of people who wanted to go to America..
B、The increase in the number of people who wanted to go to Europe after the War 1812.
C、The increased demand for the transportation of all kinds of cargo.
D、The increased volume of mail.
答案A
解析 题目问在邮船的发展过程中，什么起了十分重要的作用。文章的第2句话“It was the increase in emigration to America that for the first time made the carrying of passengers across the Atlantic more profitable than the transportation of heavy cargo．A new type of sailing，the packet(邮船)，appeared to meet this new demand...”从文中看出，正是随着美国的移民人数的增加，第一次使得横渡大西洋的客运比货运更为有利可图，从而促进了快速邮船的发展。所以A是正确的。
