In 1870s rich people began to speak of spending weekends in the country visiting friends. For most people back then, however, the workday was six days long.
Car maker Henry Ford was the first person in the United States to start a workweek of 5 days. He did that in 1926. By 1940 it had become common for most Americans to work 8 hours a day, 5 days a week. For many people Saturday night is the happiest time of the weekend and the week.
Anything and everything can happen(发生) on Saturday night. People go dancing; they visit friends and have parties. They drink much alcohol(酒精饮料). They sleep, and watch television. People do the same things on other nights of the week too, but they do them more often on Saturday night.
On Saturday night cinemas sell more tickets. It is also the biggest night for places that sell alcoholic drinks. That is one reason why most fights and car accidents(事故) are on Saturday night.
Is there anything people do not like about the weekend? A study of 1,000 Americans found that half would gladly have a more day of free time. The only thing wrong with the weekend, they think, is that it does not last longer.
Which is one reason why most fights and car accidents are on Saturday night?
选项
A、On Saturday night cinemas sell more tickets.
B、People go dancing; they visit friends and have parties on Saturday nights.
C、Saturday night is the biggest night for places that sell alcoholic drinks.
答案
C
解析
题目问的是“周六晚上发生打架事故和汽车事故最多的原因之一是什么?”。从文章的第四段“It is also the biggest night for places that sell alcoholic drinks.That is one reason why most fights and car accidents are on Saturday night.”可知,周六晚上卖酒的地方卖出很多酒精饮料,人们喝很多酒,这导致了很多打架和事故的发生。
