问题    Mark Hill is a traffic police officer in Watford, near London. He works on some of the busiest motorways in Britain, the M1 and the M25.
   There are traffic police on duty 24 hours a day. There are three shifts, and each shift is eight hours. On average they have to deal with three to four accidents each shift. Here is Mark Hill talking about his job:
   "We deal with anyone in the accidents who is injured. That’s the first thing. Then we have to clear the road and get the traffic moving again.
   "Most accidents happen because people drive too fast—especially when the roads are wet. Sometimes we get accidents that occur because drivers don’t follow the rules. For example, I’ve seen a number of cases of drivers overtaking on the left. This is illegal in Britain. If you want to overtake, you have to go into the fast lane on the right.
   "Not everyone can use a motorway in Britain. People that ride a bicycle or a small motorbike are not allowed to use it.
   "I like my job. I have a varied working day—I never know what I’m going to do from one day to the next. And I meet all kinds of people. I don’t think there’s any other job that can give you that experience."
Which of the following is NOT TRUE?

选项 A、The traffic police in London can be very busy.
B、The traffic in some parts of London is very heavy.
C、On average Mark Hill is on duty four hours a day.
D、Cyclists are not allowed to use the motorways.

答案C

解析 根据文章第二段的讲述,交通警一天24小时执勤,每天三班倒,每一班8小时。所以C选项所陈述的内容与文章不符。
