问题 When did the accident take place?
The incident occurred Wednesday when Somali pirates boarded the container ship Maersk Alabama about 500 kilometers off the coast of Somalia. The 20-man crew regained control of the Danish-owned, American-operated ship. But the ship’s captain—Richard Phillips—was taken hostage as the pirates escaped aboard a lifeboat. The U.S. Navy destroyer Bainbridge is on the scene and negotiators led by the Federal Bureau of Investigation are talking to the pirates in an effort to release Captain Phillips.
选项 A、Monday.
B、Tuesday.
C、Thursday.
D、Wednesday.
答案 D
解析 录音开头就明确提到，事故发生在星期三。故答案为D。新闻报道常采用“倒金字塔结构”，即新闻的第一句话为导语。常回答who，what，when和where等核心问题，因此考生应把听音重点放在新闻的首句。
