问题 Sixteen-year-old Maria was waiting in line at the airport in Santo Domingo. She was leaving her native country to join her sister in the United States. She spoke English very well. Though she was very happy she could go abroad, she was feeling sad at leaving her family and fiends. As she was thinking all about this, she suddenly heard the airline employee asking her to pick up her luggage and put it on the scales（称）. Maria pulled and pulled. The bag was too heavy and she just couldn’t lift it up. The man behind her got very impatient. He, too, was waiting to check in his luggage.
“What’s wrong with this girl?” He said, “Why doesn’t she hurry up?” He moved forward and placed his bag on the counter, hoping to check in fist. He was in a hurry to get a good seat.
Maria was very angry, but she was very polite. And in her best English she said, “Why are you so upset? There are enough seats for everyone on the plane. If you are in such a hurry, why can’t you give me a hand with my luggage?”
The man was surprised to hear Maria speak English. He quickly picked up her luggage and stepped back. Everyone was looking at him with disapproval. (224 words)
选项 1、Maria’s story happened ________.
A. when she was leaving America
B. on her way back to Santo Domingo
C. before she left the USA
D. when she arrived at the airport
答案D
解析这是一道细节题，本题询问这个故事发生的时间。一般对于细节题，我们需要查找信息所对应的句子或者句群。文章开始就介绍了故事发生的时间和地点，“Sixteen-year-old Maria was waiting in line at the airport in Santo Domingo. She was leaving her native country to join her sister in the United States.”（16岁的玛丽亚正在圣多明戈机场排队等候。她将离开自己的祖国去找在美国的姐姐）。因此我们确定选择答案D。选项B里短语on one’s way back to意为“在返回某地的路上”。
