Do you want to say what you think in a letter to the President of the United States? You’ll get a reply from him—written in ink, not typed—after only a few days.
The President gets about 4,000 letters every week. He answers everyone who writes to him on special White House Paper. But he doesn’t need a lot of time for it. In fact, he only gives 20 minutes a week to looking at his personal correspondence. He has the most modern secretary in world to help him.
His computer, worth £ 800,000; which has its own room on the first floor of the White House. It has a bank of electronic pens which write like the President writes, in his favorite light blue ink. Each letter the President receives gets a number, according to the type of answer it needs. The pens then write the correct reply for it, according to the number. Each letter takes less than a second to write. A White House official said, "It’s not important that the letters come from a computer. Each letter says what the President wants to say. "
It takes the computer______to write ten letters.
选项
A、no more than ten seconds
B、less than ten seconds
C、a little more than ten seconds
D、at least one second
答案
B
解析
参见文章第三段的倒数第三行:Each letter takes less than a second to write.写每一封信的时间不到一秒钟。因此ten letters所用的时间应该是less than ten seconds.注意A选项中No more than的意思是不多于,即小于或等于,故A项不能选。
