问题     Jenny was a very ambitious and energetic person. She didn’t have much in common with other girls in her school, however. She played football better than many boys, and unfortunately she made a rather bad impression on many of her teachers. Jenny just didn’t act the way they thought a girl should. She studied at a university and later took a job as a typist. Although she was enthusiastic and did her best, she made many mistakes and was poorly paid. She didn’t want to be a typist any-way-she dreamed of becoming a pilot!
    Jenny moved to London, borrowed some money, and learned to fly. Nobody, however, wanted to hire a female pilot. She decided to fly alone to Australia to prove that she could fly as well as any man. Her parents lent her money to buy an airplane.
    Jenny set off on July 5 , 1928. Her route took her over many places she dreamed of before. She was caught in a sandstorm and had to make an emergency landing in the desert. But she landed in India six days later. She had broken the record to India by two days. Over Burma she ran into a monsoon, and was able to save herself only by landing on a football field. She finally reached Australia. The plane propeller had been broken during her last landing, and she had to crash-land. But Jenny had proved that she could fly-and that a woman could do almost anything she really put her mind to.
    Jenny Johnson later married the pilot who had come to her rescue in Australia.
During her flight to Australia, Jenny ran into a lot of difficulties.

选项 A、Right
B、Wrong
C、Not mentioned

答案A

解析 在前往澳大利亚的飞行途中, 珍妮遇到了很多困难。根据文章中第三段的描述可以得知在去澳大利亚的飞行中, 珍妮遭遇了如沙尘暴(sandstorm)、季风(monsoon)和坏了的螺旋桨(propeller)等差点使她丧生的灾难, 本句话概括了文中所描述的种种困难, 因此是正确的。
