The mushy remains of a tomato thrown at a prominent member of Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder’s Social Democrats has posed a legal dilemma for authorities trying to assess how to punish the thrower. Police investigating the fruit, thrown by an unemployed protestor at the premier of the state of Brandenburg, said they have concluded it was a yellow tomato. Had it been a soft red one, the man would have faced a lesser charge of causing malicious damage. A harder, green tomato could carry the tougher charge of bodily harm, A yellow one is somewhere in between. "In these types of cases it has to do with the consistency of the fruit," said a spokeswoman for the court in the eastern city of Cottbus. No decision on the charge has yet been reached. Social democratic politicians have been facing the wrath of the public in recent months, especially in the economically depressed east where many people face painful jobless benefit cuts from January 2005. Tens of thousands have joined protests in the last six weeks and Schroeder himself has been pelted with eggs, none of which hit their mark.
选项
A、Many people protested in the past six months.
B、Many people threw tomatoes at the German Chancellor.
C、Many people threw eggs at an important member of the German Chancellor’s Social Democrats.
D、Many people threw eggs at the German Chancellor, but he was not hit.
答案
D
解析
理解比喻性表达是解题的关键。原文中none of which hit their mark“没有击中目标”,即指Schroeder没有被砸着,与选项D中he was not hit心意思相同。
