问题     Sometimes file U.S. government goes out of its way to prove it can be an absolute nuisance. Take the case of Southern Clay, Inc., which has a factory at Paris, Tennessee, putting out a clay product for cat boxes best known as "Kitty Litter." It’s a simple enough process, but the Federal Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) insists that since clay comes from the ground-an excavation half a mile from the Kitty Litter plant--the company actually is engaged in mining and milling. Therefore, says MSHA, Southern Clay is subject to all the roles that govern, say, coal miners working in shafts several hundred feet down.
    The company has been told to devise an escape system and fire fighting procedures in case there is a fire in its "mine". Southern Clay estimates it will lose 6,000 manhours in production time giving its 250 factory workers special training in how to escape from a mine disaster.
    One thing that has always impressed us about cats, in addition to their tidiness, is that they seem to watch the human world with a sense of wise and detached superiority, as though they wondered what the hustle and bustle is all about. If they grin from time to time, as some people insist, it’s no wonder.
What docs the author mean by the last sentence of the passage?
选项 A、Cats sometimes seem to be amused by human antics.
B、People sometimes appear to be laughing at the antics of cats.
C、Some people think cats are laughing at the Kitty Litter Plant.
D、Some people think cats are laughing at the futility of fire fighting procedures.
答案A
解析 句义理解题。通过上文得知，句中的“They”是“cats”，选项B、C和D中的laugh与文章最后—句中的“girn”的意思是不相同的。
