I came to India a year ago to find a village in which I could live and write but it was many months before I settled down happily in this Himalayan community.
I wasted a lot of time looking for the "typical" village, yet no such thing exists. Conditions vary too widely. But the villages I stayed in had much in common—poverty, dirt, ignorance. Often the villagers themselves were puzzled, suspicious. Why had I come? I had put aside my work as a political journalist because my ideas had changed. I had come to believe that what was happening in the Third World was more important than anything else. But to understand how three-quarters of the world’s people live, and how their future might affect ours, I felt that I first had to try and share their way of life.
In the end I chose a mountain village because it was a little cooler than those in the plains. I took the bus from town along a bumpy road. Then came a rough walk down a steep path to the river. After this I began the climb into the Mils. Whenever I stopped to catch my breath, there was a magnificent view. After several hours’ walk the village came into view.
The village the writer finally chose to live______.
选项
A、was situated at the end of a bumpy road
B、had a better climate than those in the plains
C、was a short walk from the river
D、had a magnificent view of the river
答案
B
解析
文中第三段第一句说:“最后,我选择了一个山村,因为那里的气候要比平原地区凉一些。”由此我们可以看出,作者之所以选择山村主要是因为气候的原因,所以选项B正确。选项A、C、D均说的是山村的自然情况,不是作者选择的主要原因。
