问题     Weight(体重)is one of the taboo subjects. In America, it is OK, or even good, to be thin but it is an embarrassment(尴尬) to be overweight. In fact, the thinner you are, the more beautiful you are thought to be. You’ll find that most models(模特) are nothing more than skin and bones. A woman who is thin is easy to become popular. Of course, there are lots of people do their best to be thin. They may use all kinds of ways, such as doing exercise, or dieting(节食). But, sometimes, dieting may bring about some healthy problems.
    Americans are very careful about their weight and most of the time they do not tell others how much they weigh even if they are quite thin. Therefore, you’d better not ask about it. But if you really want to talk about this subject, it’s always safer to say, "Oh, it looks like you have lost weight. " However, if you would like to be honest and polite, I suggest that you should choose your words carefully, perhaps by saying:"Hey, you look great. Very healthy looking. " And always remember, you can not use the word "fat".
Americans never tell others about their weight.

选项 A、Right.
B、Wrong.
C、Doesn’t say.

答案B

解析 题句的意思是“美国人从不将自己的体重告诉别人”。通读短文不难发现,第二段第一句指出:Americans are very careful about their weight and most of the time their do not tell others how much they weigh…(美国人对自己的体重很在意,通常不会将自己的体重告诉别人……),将此句与题句对照即可知它们之间意思上的差异,题句是将原文中most of the time they do not偷换成了never,冈此不正确。
