Milosevic's Death

Former Yugoslav leader Slobodan Milosevic was found dead last Saturday in his cell at the Hague一based International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia.The 64-year-old had been on trial there since February 2002.
Born in provincial Pozarevac in 1941,he was the second son of a priest and a school teacher. Both of his parents died when he was still a young adult.The young Milosevic was"untypical", says Slavoljub Djukic,his unofficial biographer. He was"not interested in sports,avoided excur-sions（短途旅行）and used to come to school dressed in the old-fashioned way-white shirt and tie". One of his old friends said, he could "imagine him as a station-master or punctilious（一丝不苟的）civil servant".
Indeed that is exactly what he might have become,had he not married Mira. She was widely believed to be his driving force.
At university and beyond he did well. He worked for various firms and was a communist party member. By 1986 he was head of Serbia's Central Committee. But still he had not yet really been noticed.
It was Kosovo that gave him his chance.An autonomous province of Serbia,Kosovo was home to an Albanian majority and a Serbian minority.In 1989,he was sent there to calm fears of Serbians who felt they were discriminated against. But instead he played the nationalist card and became their champion. In so doing , he changed into a ruthless（无情的）and determined man. At home with Mira he plotted the downfall of his political enemies. Conspiring（密谋）with the director of Serbian TV,he mounted a modern media campaign which aimed to get him the most power in the country.
He was elected Serbian president in 1990.In 1997,he became president of Yugoslavia. The rest of the story is well-known:his nationalist card caused Yugoslavia's other ethnic groups to fight for their own rights,power and lands.Yugoslavia broke up when four of the six republics declared independence in 1991.War started and lasted for years and millions died.Then Western countries intervened.NATO bombed Yugoslavia,and he eventually stepped down as state leader in 2000.
Soon after this,Serbia's new government,led by Zoran Djindjic,arrested him and sent him to face justice at the Yugoslav war crimes tribunal in the Hague.What happened in 1991?A:Yugoslavia broke up.B:Western countries intervened.C:NATO bombed Yugoslavia.D:Milosevic was arrested.
选项 What happened in 1991?
A:Yugoslavia broke up.
B:Western countries intervened.
C:NATO bombed Yugoslavia.
D:Milosevic was arrested.
答案 A
解析 本文开头说到了米洛舍维奇死亡的时间和地点“in his cell at the Hague一based International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia"，即海牙国际刑事法庭前南斯拉夫仲裁庭的牢房中，显然，可以排除选项D，而pnson和cell为近义词。
本题为推断题。文章第二段最后一句和第三段都提到了这一点，要不是跟Mira结婚，他有可能成为一个站长或是公务员，而在此之前，他并没有太大的抱负。
问题问对米洛舍维奇的命运未产生某种影响的人是谁？尽管文章第二段在讲述他的童年时谈到了他的父母，但看不出他们对他的命运有什么影响。相反，另外三位在一定程度上影响了米洛舍维奇的人生的成与败。
文章倒数第三段中间提到："In 1989, he was sent there to calm fears of Serbians who felt they were discriminated against.”他被派到科索沃去消除感觉受到歧视的塞尔维亚人的恐慌。
倒数第二段说“Yugoslavia broke up when four of the six republics declared independence in 1991.”即1991年，6个共和国中的4个宣布独立后，南斯拉夫解体了。
