问题 According to the passage, which of the following has changed the most in the last 500 years?
Thousands of Irish people starved during the "Potato Famine" because ______.
选项 A、they were so dependent on potatoes that they refused to eat anything else
B、they were forced to leave their homeland and move to America
C、the weather conditions in Ireland were not suitable for growing potatoes
D、the potato harvest was bad
答案D
解析 利用题干中的特征结构(Potato Famine)作为答案线索，这样在文章中找到直接答案相关句：Ireland became so dependent on it that thousands of Irish people starved when the crop failed  during the “Potato Famine(饥荒)”of 1845-1846,and thousands more were foxed to leave their homeland and move to America．划线结构说“从1845年到1846年出现了马铃薯荒，数以千计的爱尔兰人因为庄稼(马铃薯)歉收而饿死了”，因此判断D是答案。 fail vi.vt.“失败：不及格，无法做到；(作物)歉收”。 e．g．He failed (in) his English examination．他的英语考试不及格。 Last year the crops failed．去年农什物歉收。
