Beldon and Canfield are two seashore towns, not far apart. Both towns have many hotels, and in summer the hotels are full of holiday-makers and other tourists.
Last August there was a fire at the Seabreeze Hotel in Beldon. The next day, this news appeared on page two of the town’s newspaper. The Beldon Post:
FIRE AT SEABREEZE
Late last night firemen hurried to the Seabreeze Hotel and quickly put out a small fire in a bedroom. The hotel manager said that a cigarette started the fire. We say again to all our visitors: "Please don’t smoke cigarettes in bed." This was Beldon’s first hotel fire for five years.
The Canfield Times gave the news in these words on page one:
ANOTHER BELDON HOTEL CATCHES FIRE
Last night Beldon firemen arrived just too late to save clothing, bedclothes and some furniture at the Seabreeze Hotel. An angry holiday-maker said, "An electric lamp probably started the fire. The bedroom lamps are very old at some of these hotels. When I put my bedside light on, I heard a funny noise from the lamp." We are glad to tell our readers that this sort of adventure does not happen in Canfield.
What are the facts, then? It is never easy to find out the exact truth about an accident. There was a fire at the Seabreeze Hotel last August: that is one fact. Do we know anything else? Yes, we know that firemen went to the hotel.
Now what do you think of the rest of the "news"?
The Canfield newspaper gave a report just the opposite to the Beldon Post by saying that______.
选项
A、the bedroom lamps were very old at the Seabreeze Hotel
B、the bedroom lights made funny noise when the fire took place
C、the firemen failed to save clothing, bedclothes and other things
D、such accidents never happened in Canfield for the past 5 years
答案
C
解析
细节题。The Canfield Times报道说Last night Beldon firemen arrived just too late to save clothing,bedclothes and some furniture at the Seabreeze Hotel.而The Beldon Post则说消防队员及时把这场小火扑灭了(没有造成损失),两者报道相反。可知答案为C。
