资料:American Airlines CEO takes blame for maintenance errors, disrupted flightsFriday, April 11,2008By TERRY MAXON and DAVE MICHAELS/The Dallas Morning NewsAmerican Airlines chairman and chief executive officer Gerard Arpey said Thursday that he is taking “personal responsibility” for the bad maintenance that has forced the carrier to cancel some 3,000 flights this week for aircraft inspections.MD-80s sat on the sidelines at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport on Thursday, when American Airlines canceled more than 930 flights as inspections continued. The Fort Worth-based carrier has canceled 570 flights scheduled today.“I run the company.” Mr.Arpey told reporters at an afternoon news conference.” so if there’s any blame to be had, it is my fault, and I take full responsibility for this.”American canceled more than 930 flights Thursday as its mechanics, quality assurance inspectors and engineers worked to ensure that the carrier’s fleet of 300 MD-80 jets would meet Federal Aviation Administration(FAA) regulations.The Fort Worth-based carrier canceled 570 flights for today as well, and expects the disruptions to continue into the weekend, although an airline spokesman said Saturday’s cancellations should be fewer than today’s.On Tuesday, American grounded its fleet of aging MD-80s,which have an average age of more than 18 years and include some past their 25th birthday, to redo checks of the wiring harnesses in the right wheel well of the jets-only two weeks after it had performed the same inspections.The FAA has said in recent days that its enforcement hasn’t changed or become stricter. But Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison said airlines have told her they’ve noticed difference.“The standard is now being very, very rigidly enforced and leeway is being taken away.”Ms,Hutchison said.“I can’t say if it’s food or bad. But I know that it’s changed.”Today, the U.S. has five to eight aviation fatalities per 100 million people who fly each year; during the mid-1990s,it was about 45 deaths per 100 million people flown.According to the passage, American Airlines ______.A.is going to have a new chairman and CEOB.only operates from Dalls/Fort Worth International AirportC.is an airline that has 3000 MD-80 airplanesD.is a company that is headquartered in Fort Worth, Dallas

【主题句】
第二段MD-80s sat on the sidelines at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport on Thursday, when American Airlines canceled more than 930 flights as inspections continued. The Fort Worth-based carrier has canceled 570 flights scheduled today. 周四,MD-80s在达拉斯/沃斯堡国际机场旁边停靠着,该天由于检查继续,美国航空公司取消了超过930次航班。这家位于沃思堡的航空公司今天已经取消了570次航班。
第三段“I run the company.” Mr.Arpey told reporters at an afternoon news conference.” so if there’s any blame to be had, it is my fault, and I take full responsibility for this.” “我经营公司,”阿佩先生在一个下午的新闻发布会上告诉记者,“如果有任何责任,那是我的错,我对此负全部责任。”
第四段American canceled more than 930 flights Thursday as its mechanics, quality assurance inspectors and engineers worked to ensure that the carrier’s fleet of 300 MD-80 jets would meet Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations. 周四,美国航空公司取消了930多次航班,其机械师、质量保证检查员和工程师致力于确保该航空公司的300架MD-80喷气机机队符合美国联邦航空管理局(FAA)的规定。
【解析】题目意为“根据这段话,美国航空公司_______”选项A意为“将要有一位新的董事长兼首席执行官”;选项B意为“只从达尔斯/沃斯堡国际机场运营”;选项C意为“是一家拥有3000架MD-80飞机的航空公司”;选项D意为“是一家总部位于达拉斯沃思堡的公司”。根据主题句,选项A中,首席执行官杰拉德阿佩愿意承担任何责任,但选项中“有新董事长兼首席执行官”文章中未提及;选项B中,文章仅提到MD-80s飞机停靠在达拉斯/沃斯堡国际机场,但不能推断该航空公司仅在此运行;选项C中应该为300架MD-80喷气机机队;选项D这家航空公司总部位于沃斯堡,因此只有选项D与题意相符。
