News has just been received of an air crash in the north of England. The plane, which was on a charter flight from London to Carlisle, was carrying a party of businessmen on their way to a trade fair. It seems likely that the plane ran into a heavy fog as it was approaching Carlisle and was obliged to circle for some twenty minutes. Everything seemed to be going well. The pilot was in constant radio communication with Control, when the engines suddenly cut out and all contact was lost. The plane crashed on the site of the ancient Roman camp at Hadrian’s Hill, a place well known to archaeologists and tourists. So far few details have been reported, but it is feared that at least twenty people lost their lives, among them the pilot, who was killed suddenly. The local ambulance and firemen were on the scene within minutes of the crash, but additional help had to be rushed from other areas. Mr. Leslie Collins, one of the survivors, told the reporter, “We passengers noticed the engines were making a funny noise. Of course we could not see anything because of the fog, but the pilot said there was nothing to worry about. The next thing we knew, the engines went dead. There was a rushing noise and a kind of flash ― and after that I didn’t remember any more.”
Questions 26 to 29 are based on the passage you have just heard.
26. Which of the following statement is True?
27. Where did the plane crash?
28. Which of the following statement is True?
29. What can we infer from what Mr. Collins said?

选项 A、The plane that crashed was returning from a trade fair.
B、The plane that crashed was on a regular flight to Carlisle.
C、The plane that crashed was flying some businessmen to London.
D、The plane that crashed was not on a regular flight.

答案 D

解析 判断题。浏览选项可知,选项提供的信息相似,需根据细节来判断。该题考查的是失事飞机的一般信息。文章在开头就点明,这架从伦敦开往卡莱尔的飞机是运送一些商业人士去商品交易会的charter flight(包机),因此不是regular flight(正常航班),故D正确。
