Ian Johnstone missed his girlfriend so much that he flew back to Britain from Australia to ask her to marry him. The problem is she did the same in the opposite direction. He and Amy Dolby even managed to miss each other when they sat in the same airport waiting room in Singapore at the same time to wait for connecting flights.
After an 11000-mile flight across the globe, Dolby was greeted by Johnstone’s astonished flatmate asking what she was doing there "It was as though someone was playing a cruel joke on us," she told The Times. “He is the most romantic(浪漫的) person I have ever known. I think our problem is that we are both quite impulsive(易冲动的) people. We are always trying to surprise each other. "
Johnstone, a 27-year-old construction worker, had taken a year off to travel round Australia. But he was missing Dolby, a 26-year-old secretary, so much that he got a job on a Sydney building site and started saving for a surprise. He then flew home to Britain and went to her apartment armed with an engagement(订婚) ring and flowers. “I really missed Amy and I’d been thinking about her all the time. I thought she was winding me up when she phoned me from Australia," he said.
Johnstone then asked Dolby to marry him on the phone. "I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, but I accepted," she said.
Where are Johnstone and Dolby from?
选项
A、Both are from Britain.
B、Both are from Australia.
C、Johnstone’s from Britain, Dolby Australia.
D、Johnstone’s from Australia, Dolby Britain.
答案
A
解析
细节题。短文第一句即指出两位主人公的国籍:Ian Johnstone... flew back to Britain...(Ian Johnstone……飞回了英国……),且后文的描述表明Johnstone的女朋友本来待在英国国内。由此可知,他们二人都应是英国人。
