问题     Daylight Saving Time begins on Monday, April 3, 2005. People in most parts of the United States will turn their clocks ahead one hour.
    The official (正式的) time to turn your clock ahead is early in the morning, April 3. Two a.m. becomes three a.m. Sunday will have only 23 hours. (Most people changes their clocks before they go to sleep Saturday night.)
    In the fall, people turn their clock back an hour. This saying helps people remember which way to turn the clock: "Spring ahead; fall back." (Spring and fall each have two meanings here.)
    We use daylight Saving Time in order to save electricity (电) . We need one less hour of light from electricity each day in the summer.
    Arizona, Hawaii, and parts of Indiana do not use Daylight Saving Time. Not every country uses Daylight Saving Time, either. Countries near the equator (赤道) have no reason to use Daylight Saving Time. Their hours of daylight and darkness are always nearly the same. There is no Daylight Saving Time in Japan, China, or India.
    Countries south of the equator have quite different seasons. They are ending their Daylight Saving Time now.
Daylight Saving Time on both sides of the equator begins at the same time.
选项 A、Right.
B、Wrong.
C、Doesn’t say.
答案B
解析 句意:赤道两侧的国家开始夏令时的时间相同。细节题。从文中的最后一段得知：赤道南部的国家有着不同的季节。因此，此说法与原文不符，故选B。
