Mrs. Jones was very fond of singing. She had a very good, voice, except that some of her high notes tended to sound like a gate which someone had forgotten to oil. Mrs. Jones was very conscious of this weakness, and took every opportunity she could find to practice these high notes. As she lived in a small house, where she could not practice without disturbing the rest of the family, she usually went for long walks along the country reads whenever she had time, and practiced her high notes there. Whenever she heard a car or a person coming along the road, she stopped and waited until she could no longer be heard before she started practicing again, be- cause she was a shy person, and because she was sensitive about those high notes.
One afternoon, however, a fast open car came behind her so silently that she did not hear it until it was only a few yards away from her. She was singing some of her highest and most difficult notes at the time. As the car passed her, she saw an anxious expression suddenly come. over its driver’s face. He put his brakes on violently, and as soon as the car stopped, he jumped out and began to examine his tires carefully.
Mrs. Jones dared not tell him what the noise he had heard had really been, so he got back into his car and drove off, as puzzled as he had been when he stopped.
选项
A、Because he had run out of gas.
B、Because his tires were stabbed.
C、Because he bad heard a noise.
D、Because he was attracted by Mrs. f Jones.
答案

Why did the driver stop the car?
根据选项可知问题询问关于he做某事的原因。文中关键句为“She was singing some of her highest and most difficult notes...As the car passed her...He put his brakes on violently, and as soon as the car stopped, he jumped out and began to examine his tires carefully.”约翰夫人在唱到高音时有位司机开车经过,他猛地刹车,然后跳下车仔细检查轮胎。因此他是听到一声类似轮胎故障的声音而停车。故正确答案为C)。
