问题    Mr. Wilmot was born in a little village near the coast and had gone to school in the nearest seaside town, but he was not a lover of the sea. Even when walking along the sands, he was afraid of being cut off by the tide. Mr. Wilmot was not a very good swimmer, so perhaps this was why he disliked the sea.
   After working for some years in London, Mr. Wilmot was transferred (调动) to a town near the coast and, of course, the family often made trips to the beach. One day his children asked him to take them out into the bay in a boat. The sun shone brightly. There was little wind and the water was calm. So Mr. Wilmot hired a boat and with his two children rowed out into the bay. At first all went well, but when they decided to turn back they found themselves faced with difficulties. A strong wind had sprung up (突然起来) and the currents (海浪) were rather dangerous.
   Mr. Wilmot rowed hard, but it seemed they were making little progress. The children were waving to attract the attention of the people on the beach. Just then a motor-boat appeared from the direction of the bay. Their trouble had been noticed and the motor-boat had come to their rescue. A rope was soon attached (系上，栓上) and their boat was pulled back to the shore.
   Mr. Wilmot’s dislike of the sea became even stronger after this experience.
What CANNOT be inferred from the story?’
选项 A、The sea can hardly be trusted even on a fine day.
B、It is not safe for people to go boating in the open sea.
C、People who know the sea well do not like it.
D、Mr. Wilmot wouldn’t want to go to the sea any more.
答案C
解析 推理判断题。此题要求找出哪个选项是不能从文中推断出来的，可以用排除法来找到答案。[A]、[B]两项是读完这个故事后人们很容易作出的合理推断，毕竟意外就发生在一个风和日丽的平静海面上。此外，文章的最后一句话“Mr. Wilmot’s dislike of the sea became even stronger after this experience”是选项[D]的依据，经历了这次冒险以后，我们可以推断Mr. Wilmot不会再去出海了。因此，[A]、[B]、[D]部是可以从文中推断出来的，唯有[C]不符，所以本题答案是[C]。
