Passage Four
One evening Mr. Green was driving home along a lonely country road. He had ￡ 100.00 in his pock et. At the loneliest part of the road, a man asked for a lift (搭车). Mr. Green told him to get into the car and continued his driving. When he talked to the man and learned that the man had been in prison for robbery and had broken out of prison two days before, Mr. Green was very worried.
Suddenly he saw a police-car and had a bright idea. He just reached a small town where the speed limit (限制速度) was 30 miles an hour. But he drove the car as fast as it could go. He looked back and saw that the police-car had begun to chase (追) him. After a mile or so the police-car overtook (赶上) him and ordered him to stop. A policeman got out and came to Mr. Green's car. Mr. Green hoped that he could tell the policeman about the escaped robber, but he felt the man had put a gun against his back. The policeman took out his notebook and pencil, saying he wanted Mr. Green's name and address. Mr. Green asked to be taken to the police station, but the policeman said, "No, you will have to appear at the police station later." Mr. Green had to do as the policeman told him. The policeman wrote his name and address down, put his notebook and pencil back in his pocket and gave Mr. Green a talk about dangerous driving. Then Mr. Green started up his car again and drove on.
Just as he reached the outskirts (郊区) of London, the passenger said, "! want to get off here." Mr. Green stopped the car, the man got out and said, "Thanks for the lift. You've been good to me. This is the least I can do in return (报答)." And he handed Mr. Green the policeman's notebook, which he stole while the policeman was talking to Mr. Green.
46. The man asking for a lift was ______.
A. a robber who robs drivers
B. a policeman who had worked in prison
C. a prisoner who had escaped from prison
D. a stranger with ￡ 100.00 in his pocket
正确答案：C
本题是对有关人物细节信息的考查。其中关键词是man．．．lift．．．was。首先，考生从选项中得知需判断搭车人的身份。通过第1段倒数第2句中的．．．the man．．．in prison for robbery．．．broken out of prison two days before了解到此人曾因抢劫而入狱，但又于两天前越狱逃走。 A、B、D项都与文中内容不符，应被排除。唯有C项(越狱的犯人)合乎文中情节，是正确答案。

Pushing Drunk Boss's Car Home Ten workers in China pushed their boss's car three miles home after' an office party because they were all too drunk to drive. The group was enjoying a meal at a restaurPushing Drunk Boss's Car Home
Ten workers in China pushed their boss's car three miles home after' an office party because they were all too drunk to drive. The group was enjoying a meal at a restaurant in downtown Changchun, Jilin Province (northeast China). When the party was over, Boss Zhang Fei found that he was too drunk to drive. Then suddenly they realized nobody had stayed sober enough to drive his car.
Drink-driving was listed as a dangerous offence in China in 2014, esp. when the driver is drunk. Those who break the law will have their driving license revoked, face a heavy fine and may be put in jail. Zhang did not want to leave his car downtown and it was too late to call out another driver to drive the car for him. Someone then suggested they push the car home, and said that the exercise would do them all good. Thus, all ten quickly agreed and set off with Zhang at the wheel. All ten workers pushed their boss's car home through the city streets, laughing and singing during the 45-minute journey. Passers-by were shocked to see the group.
Traffic officers said that as long as the car's engine was not running, it would not be classed as drink-driving under the law. However, it is still very dangerous for so many people to push the car along the road, as it may cause traffic accidents.
