问题  
I did not know the city at all. And on the whole, I could not speak a word of the language. After having spent my first day sightseeing in the town center, I decided to lose my way deliberately on my second day, since I believed that this was the surest way of getting to know my way around.
    I got on the first bus that passed and descended some thirty minutes later in what must have been a suburb. The first two hours passed pleasantly enough. I discovered mysterious little bookshops in back streets and finally arrived at a market place where I stopped and had a coffee in an open air café. After walking about aimlessly for some time, I was determined to ask the way. The trouble was that the only word I knew of the language was the name of the street in which I lived. And even that I pronounced incorrectly. The policeman listened to my question, smiled and gently took me by the arm. There was a distant look in his eyes as he pointed left and right and left again .I nodded politely and began walking in the direction he pointed. About an hour passed and I noticed that the houses were getting fewer and grain fields were appearing on each side of me. I had come all the way into the country. The only thing left for me to do was to find the nearest railway station.
Question 4: What did the speaker want to do on the second day?
Question 5: Why did he want to do so?
Question 6: What did he find out when he decided to go back to the hotel?
Question 7: What happened at last?

选项 A、To know more of the city.
B、To practise the language.
C、To get to know his way around the suburb.
D、To while away the hours.

答案A

解析 讲话者想要故意让自己迷路是因为他认为这是the surest way of getting to know my wayaround,通过前面讲到的“I did not know the city at all”可知这里是说他想更多地了解这座城市。
