Thousands of people living in villages closest to the volcano have already been moved to emergency shelters. Many more are lining up by the side of the road waiting for trucks to take them to safety. But still there are a few farmers refusing to move. Without their crops and animals they have no income and cannot support their families so they’re waiting until the government offers financial help. Meanwhile, the mountain above them is becoming more active by the day. At least one village about three kilometers from the volcano has been covered in a dusting of volcanic ash. One scientist told the BBC he now believed Merapi was in what he called the early stages of a blowout but he added "we cannot predict when it will reach its peak".
1. Why do some farmers refuse to move to emergency shelters?
2. What do we learn from the news report?
选项
A、They are lining up for trucks to take them to safety.
B、They want to watch the unusual volcano blowout.
C、They hope the government can provide some money.
D、They think volcanic ash is good to their crops.
答案
C
解析
新闻中描写了火山附近居民在灾害发生之前的不同行为,有些人已经撤离到紧急的安全棚内.有些人等候政府的卡车把他们载到安全的地方,但也有一些人考虑到灾后的生计问题而拒绝离开,希望政府能在此之前给他们一些经济支持(until the government offers financial help)。所以选C项。A项“等待卡车将他们送到安全的地方”是火山爆发前另外一些人的做法。B项“他们想一睹火山爆发的奇观”和D项“他们认为火山灰有利于作物生长”均没有在新闻中提到。
