Real policemen hardly recognize any resemblance between their lives and what they see on TV—if they ever get home in time. There are similarities, of course, but the cops don’t think much of them.
The first difference is that a policeman’s real life revolves round the law. Most of his training is in criminal law. He has to know exactly what actions are crimes and what evidence can be used to prove them in court. He has to know nearly as much law as a professional lawyer, and what is more, he has to apply it on his feet, in the dark and rain, running down an alley after someone he wants to talk to.
Little of his time is spent in chatting to scantily-clad (衣着暴露的) ladies or in dramatic confrontations with desperate criminals. He will spend most of his working life typing millions of words on thousands of forms about hundreds of sad, unimportant people who are guilty—or not—of stupid, petty crimes.
Most television crime drama is about finding the criminals: as soon as he’s arrested, the story is over. In real life, finding criminals is seldom much of a problem. Except in very serious cases like murders and terrorist attack—where failure to produce results reflects on the standing of the police—little effort is spent on searching.
Having made an arrest, a detective really starts to work. He has to prove his case in court and to do that he often has to gather a lot of different evidence. So, as well as being overworked, a detective has to be out at all hours of the day and night interviewing his witnesses and persuading them, usually against their own best interests, to help him. [br] The first sentence implies that______.
选项
A、the life of the real policemen and that of the policemen on TV are entirely different
B、the real policemen will find the similarities if they can get home in time
C、the real policemen seldom can get home in time to watch TV
D、the policemen shown on TV can always get home in time
答案
C
解析
推理判断题。本题考查对第1句的理解。if引出的条件状语从句前的破折号表明这个假设是相对于之前的看电视来说的,而不是相对于整句话的。该句特意用if作补充说明。暗示了一些附加的信息:真实生活中的警察通常很晚回家,连看电视都赶不上。由此可见,C是正确的理解。A说法过于绝对.与原文的hardly不符。
