问题 What is the report about? [br]  
In today’s national news, the central transportation authority announced that the new north south highway is finally scheduled to open next week after 3 years of construction. Long distance commuters and other travelers have long waited for the opening of the new highway which will reduce driving time from the border to the capital city to approximately 2 and a half hours. When the construction began 3 years ago, the central government was in the middle of a budget crisis and the work was pushed back due to funding shortages. Drivers on the road will pay a toll of 4 dollars to use the highway.
选项 A、Bad weather
B、Lack of money
C、Problem with traffic
D、Delay of shipment
答案 B
解析     题目中的delayed和文章中的push back是一组意思相同的词，另外，选项中的lack of money和文章中的funding shortage也是一组。掌握文章后半部分的the central government was in the middle of a crisis这句话后面会提到推迟的理由，听到后面的内容就可以找到答案。crisis这个词非常重要，但是和in the middle of在一起连读时有可能会分辨不清，所以要把crisis 和in the middle of放在一起练习读几遍。shortage或short of经常像在本题中这样换成lack of。
