问题     Contrary to its rather negative reputation in the West, pigs in Chinese culture are a sign of kindness and generosity. Pigs care a great deal about friends and family and work hard to keep everyone in their life happy.  Chinese people view the pig as a smart and prosperous animal. Western ideas tend to be a little more negative.
    When talking to a Westerner, however, you have to be a little careful when you talk about pigs. A pig in the West is seen as a dirty, lazy, and fat animal. If anyone ever called you a pig, you wouldn’t be smiling. When a person doesn’t like someone, sometimes he will call that person a pig.
    If you ever meet a Westerner who was born in the year of the pig, don’t say, "Oh, you’re a pig!" Most Westerners will be quite understanding. They will be sure that you made some kind of a mistake.  However, don’t take any chances.  You might just offend someone who does not share your positive ideas about pigs.
When you call a Westerner a pig, who was born in the year of the pig, most of them______.

选项 A、will be angry
B、will be very surprised
C、can forgive
D、may quarrel with you

答案C

解析 ..Will be quite understanding意为他们表示理解,而且后文接着说,尽管如此,尽管属猪也不要冒险称呼他们是猪。所以选C。
