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 2、You believer that the work of the airline employee mentioned in the story is to _______ at the airport.
A. help carry people’s luggage
B. ask people to pick up the luggage
C. check people’s luggage
D. take care of people’s luggage

答案C

解析这是一道推断题,本题询问故事中的机场工作人员的工作是什么。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一段的一句话“….., she suddenly heard the airline employee asking her to pick up her luggage and put it on the scales(称).”(她突然听到机场工作人员让她把行李放在称上称重)。因此,我们可以推断出这个工作的职责就是检查行李并负责托运。此外,根据常识,我们也知道在办理登机手续时,我们需要将一些行李托运。因此我们确定选择答案C。注意这里选项B很容易被误以为是正确答案,需要留心分析,要求乘客将行李拿起来不是这个工作人员的主要职责。
