问题     Lane waited on the bench nearest the bridge, as he had been instructed. The wind blew straight across the river, sharp as a razor, and he had to pull his overcoat closer about him.
    He went over his instructions in his mind. The agent would appear at four o’ clock. He would chat to Lane for a while, after which he would get up, leaving his newspaper behind. The plan would be fastened inside.
    A distant clock began to strike the hour. As if from nowhere, a man appeared and sat down beside Lane, placing his newspaper on the seat between them.
    He was thin and middle-aged, and seemed in need of a good meal. He bore no resemblance to Lane’s idea of a successful spy. His conversation, confined to trivial observations about the weather, was painfully uninteresting.
    A few minutes later he got up and continued on his way. Lane picked up the paper which lay on the bench, as if he wanted to look at the news. He was excited to see the plans pinned to the center page. At that moment, however, there was a strong wind which lifted the newspaper into the air, like a kite, and blew it into the river.
Lane______.

选项 A、got rid of the plans quickly
B、lost the plans
C、threw the plans away
D、managed to save the plans

答案B

解析 文章最后一句的意思是,莱恩刚打开报纸,看到夹在里面的计划,这时刮来一阵风,将报纸刮向空中,飘落在河水里。由此可推断出他把计划弄丢了,故选B。
