问题    Almost everyone knows the meaning of Mr., Mrs. and Miss. Mr. is used before the names of men. Mrs., is for married women and Miss is for single women. But what is Ms.?
   For some time businessmen in the United States have used Ms. before a woman’s name when they do not know whether the woman is married or not. Today, however, many women prefer to use Ms. rather than Mrs. or Miss. The word Mr. does not tell us whether or not a man is married. Many women think this is an advantage (优势) for men. They want to be equal (平等) to men in this way. These women feel that it is not important for people to know whether they are married or not.
   There are some problems with Ms., however. Not all women like it. Some like the older ways of doing things. Some find it difficult to pronounce. Generally, young women like it better than older women do. It is difficult to know whether or not Ms. will be used by more American women in the future.
Which of the following sentences is TRUE?

选项 A、Businessmen in the United States always used Ms. Before women’s name.
B、All women like the new word Ms.
C、All women do not like the new word Ms.
D、The women who like Ms. feel it important for people to know whether or not they are marrie

答案C

解析 选项C表示的是部分否定,表示“并不是所有的妇女都喜欢Ms.这个词”与第三段中的“Not all women like it”意思相同。
