问题     The Swedes are among the most charming peoples in Europe. And their charm comes from an apparent contradiction in the national character, They are extremely conservative in social relationships; within the family and when meeting friends and business acquaintances, their conduct is governed by strict social patterns. At the same time, they are one of the most intellectually progressive people in the world. They are always open to new ideas.
    All social occasions in Sweden are regulated by rules and traditions. And these traditions are expressed in a specific ritual made up of formal bows, handshakes, and greetings. When a visitor enters a Swedish home, he is invariably received with a "Welcome"; when he leaves, his host will tell him "You will be welcome again." These charming phrases are an indestructible part of Swedish social life and they give it an old - world flavor of good manners.
The Swedes are charming peoples because______.

选项 A、they are conservative in social relationships
B、they are intellectually progressive
C、their conduct is governed by strict social patterns
D、they are both conservative and progressive in character

答案D

解析 参阅第一段第二、第三、第四句,这几句谈到瑞典人的魅力就在于他们的民族个性中有着明显相互矛盾的地方。在社交场合,他们非常保守;在家人和朋友面前他们的行为也十分规范,但同时他们又是世界上最具开拓精神的民族之一,所以瑞典人既保守有具开拓精神。A、B、C都不全面,D最符合题意。
