As one approaches some crossroads, one comes to a sign which says that drivers have to stop when they come to the main road ahead. At other crossroads, drivers have to go slow, but they do not actually have to stop (unless, of course, there is something coming along the main road); and at still others, they do not have either to stop or to go slow, because they are themselves on the main road.
Mr. Williams, who was always a very careful driver, was driving home from work one evening when he came to a crossroads. It had a "Slow" sign, so he slowed down when he came to the main road, looked both ways to see that nothing was coming, and then drove across without stopping completely.
At once he heard a police whistle, so he pulled in to the side of the road and stopped. A policeman walked over to him with a notebook and pencil in his hand and said, "You didn’t stop at the crossing."
"But the sign there doesn’t say ’Stop’," answered Mr Williams. "It just says ’Slow’, and I did go slow."
The policeman looked around him, and a look of surprise came over his face. Then he put his notebook and pencil away, scratched his head and said, "Well, I’ll be blowed! I am in the wrong street!"
The police stopped Mr Williams because_____.
选项
A、there was a stop sign that Mr Williams ignored
B、the police was not sure whether Mr Williams had a driving license
C、the police thought that he was at a different crossroads with a stop sign on it
D、there was a slow sign that Mr Williams ignored
答案
C
解析
最后两段。警察站错了路口,以为自己站的路口的标志应该是停车标志而非减速标志。所以,当司机在路口没有停车时,警察以为司机违反了交通规则,责令他停车。
