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.
Daylight Saving Time is used in the summer.
选项
A、Right.
B、Wrong.
C、Doesn’t say.
答案
A
解析
题句意为“夏令时用于夏季”。短文第三段第一句指出:In the fall,people turn their clock back an hour(到了秋季,人们将时钟调慢一个小时),这显然意味着不再采用夏令时。而该段第二句又指出:Spring ahead;fall back(春季调快,秋季调慢),说明夏令时只在夏季采用,故题句是正确的。
