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 everyday life of a policeman or detective is______.
选项
A、exciting and glamorous
B、full of danger
C、devoted mostly to routine matters
D、wasted on unimportant matters
答案
C
解析
推理判断题。本题考查对长句的理解。根据第3段第2句可以推断出答案。本题最具干扰性的是B,按照常识,警察的工作通常都被认为很危险,但是第3段第1句由Little引出的倒装句表明了他们很少与亡命之徒交锋,并非充满危险,因此B不对;而D将在文中用来修饰people的unimportant拿来修饰“事情”,显然偷换概念,曲解原文。
