问题 Many people who work in London prefer to live outside it, and to go in to their offices or schools every day by train, car or bus, even though this means they have to get up early in the morning and reach home late in the evening.
One advantage of living outside London is that houses are cheaper. Even a small flat in London without a garden costs quite a lot to rent. With the same money, one can get a little house in the country with a garden of one’s own.
Then, in the country one can really get away from the noise and hurry of busy working lives. Even though one has to get up earlier and spend more time in trains or buses, one can sleep better at night and during weekends and on summer evenings, one can enjoy the fresh, clean air of the country. If one likes gardens, one can spend one’s free time digging, planting, watering and doing the hundred and one other jobs which are needed in a garden. Then, when the flowers and vegetables come up, one has got the reward together with those who have shared the secret of Nature.
Some people, however, take no interest in country things: for them, happiness lies in the town, with its cinemas and theatres, beautiful shops and busy streets, dance-halls and restaurants. Such people would feel that their life was not worth living if they had to live it outside London. An occasional walk in one of the parks and a fortnight’s (two weeks) visit to the sea every summer is all the country they want: the rest they are quite prepared to leave to those who are glad to get away from London every night.

选项 4、People who think happiness lies in the city life would feel that _______ if they had to live outside London.
A. their life was meaningless
B. their life was invaluable
C. they didn’t deserve a happy life
D. they were not worthy of their happy life

答案A

解析这是一道推断题,本题询问“享受城市生活乐趣的人们如果居住在伦敦郊区会有什么感受”。 与寻找细节题的答案一样,我们需要查找信息所对应的句子或者句群。通过浏览文章,我们发现本题对应的是第四段的第二句话“Such people would feel that their life was not worth living if they had to live it outside London.”(如果不得不住在伦敦郊外的话,这些人会觉得生活就没有意义了”,所以我们推断正确答案是A。
