We found that bar at last. I didn’ t have to ask again, for there it was in big red neon letters over the window—Star Bar. There were some iron tables outside with plastic chairs around them. A few people sat around, looking at a portable television set that someone had brought out of the bar. They were all in thin summer dresses or short shirts; even at that late hour it was
stifling
. Two thin dogs lay under one of the tables with their tongues out, and some of the women were fanning themselves unenthusiastically(无精打采地)with magazines.
" He’ s not here," I said, after a quick look around. The television was speaking out an advertisement for a detergent(洗衣粉), and the people sitting round had their eyes glued to the picture of a woman proudly showing how white her husband’ s underwear was after having been washed. They took no notice of us at all.
"Well, what did you expect?" replied Fergus, yawning(打呵欠). " It’ s only half past nine, and he said he would be here at nine. You ought to know Graig by this time. He’ 11 turn up sometime after ten. "
What does the underlined word "stifling"(Paragraph 1)probably mean?
选项
A、Disappearing gradually.
B、Giving out into the air.
C、Hot and breathless.
D、Pleasing and comfortable.
答案
C
解析
词语释义题。从文章第一段可知,从酒吧门口人们的着装和精神状态,几位女子用杂志无精打采地扇着风,很瘦的两条狗伸出舌头趴在桌子下面,可推测出虽然已是晚上9:30了,但天气仍然很闷热。
