How many adults died in the bombing of the Federal building in Oklahoma?
On April 19, 1995, a truckload of bomb exploded at a government building in Oklahoma City. One hundred and sixty-eight people were killed, including nineteen children. Hundreds more were injured. After a few days of investigation, the FBI believed Timothy James McVeigh was linked to the bombing, and took him into custody. He was eventually charged with using a weapon of mass destruction against innocent citizens, and to damage the property of the United States.
McVeigh was born in New York State on April 23,1968. When he was eleven years old his parents obtained a legal separation. His parents got back together soon after that but there were still more marital troubles to come. In 1986, his parents divorced. After McVeigh graduated from high school, he entered a college but soon he gave up his studies, and enlisted in the US Army. He was involved in the Persian Gulf War in 1991, and later got five awards for his excellent performance in the war. Later he left army and worked as a security guard. In the following years he was involved in anti-government activities. In 1995 be bombed the Federal building, killing 168 innocent people. McVeigh’s trial began on April 24, 1995. The jury decided he was guilty on June 2. On June 13, the same jury sentenced McVeigh to death. In 2000, the federal courts rejected McVeigh’s request to overturn his death penalty sentence. In the same year, McVeigh decided to give up his appeals altogether. On June 11, 2001, McVeigh was executed by lethal injection in a federal prison in the American state of Indiana.
选项
A、in April 1995.
B、In June 1995.
C、In June 2001.
D、In June 2002.
答案
C
解析
答案信息对应于独白最后一句,指出他被处决的时间是on June 11,2001,因此[C]对。考生要注意的是,独白后一段中涉及了多个时间,在听音时最好作适当的记录,弄清时间和事件之间的对应关系。
