问题 The number of names on the no-fly list increases rapidly from 16 to 20,000 most probably because
According to paragraph 4, Burke’s great concern about the current system is that
选项 A、the system fails to update internationally.
B、he is often mistaken for a terrorist.
C、the damage done by the list cannot be quickly corrected.
D、getting his boarding pass will often take more time.
答案C
解析 本题问从第四段可以看出，伯克对当前使用的系统最关注的是什么。文中第四段开始提到一位律师的观点：他认为像伯克这样被误认为是恐怖分子的人最关注的是消除已经给其造成的负面影响，接下来又提到伯克自己的观点："They also hope to ensure that sometime in the future a person whose name is on the list，but is not a terrorist，does not run into further trouble if…"即伯克对目前使用的系统最关注的也是能否将已经造成的负面影响及时地消除。故"名单造成的负面影响不能被及时纠正"正确。系统没能进行全球性的更新：这并不是伯克最关注的，文中第四段第三句提到"Burke says they do know that the lists are frequently updated and distributed internationally"，可见伯克知道系统是经常进行全球性更新的。因此他不会担心本项内容。他常常被误认为是恐怖分子：本项没有反映出文章强调的长期影响，如果伯克仅仅是现在被怀疑是恐怖分子，但以后不会有任何麻烦，也许他就不会这样在乎。经常要等很久才能拿到登机牌：从文中第四段首句"The underlying danger is not that Tom Burke can no longer get a boarding pass to get on an airline"可见，这也不是伯克最关注的。
