The year 1,400 opened with more peacefulness than usual in England. Only a few months before, Richard II , weak, wicked, and treacherous—had been deposed, and Henry IV declared king in his stead. But it was only a seeming peacef ulness, lasting for but a little while; for though King Henry proved himself a just and a merciful man—as justice and mercy went with the men of iron of those days—and though he did not care to shed blood needlessly, there were many noble families who had been benefited by King Richard during his reign, and who had lost somewhat of their power and prestige from the coming in of the new king.
Among these were a number of great lords who had been degraded from their former titles and estates, from which degradation King Richard had lifted them. They planned to fall upon King Henry and his followers and to massacre them during a great tournament which was being held at Oxford. And they might have succeeded had not one of their own members betrayed them.
But Henry did not appear at the lists, whereupon, knowing that he had been lodging at Windsor with only a few attendants, the conspirators marched there against him. In the meantime, the king had been warned of the plot, so that instead of finding him in the royal castle, they discovered through their scouts that he had hurried to London, and that he was marching against them at the head of a considerable army. So nothing was left but fight. One and another, they were all caught and some killed. Those few who found friends faithful and bold enough to afford them shelter dragged those friends down in their own ruin.
Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the given historical facts?
选项
A、A number of great lords who had been degraded from their former titles and estates by King Henry planned to fall upon him.
B、The conspirators failed to succeed since one of their own members betrayed them.
C、Being warned of the plot, King Henry left the royal castle and hurried to Oxford.
D、All of the conspirators were caught and some were killed.
答案
C
解析
事实判断题。最后一段第2句话提到亨利得知刺杀计划后,迅即离开皇家城堡去往伦敦,而不是牛津,故C项为正确答案。
