Modem cowboy seem to be giving up the bandanna (印花大手帕) handkerchief; yet there was a time when this article was almost as necessary to a cowboy’s equipment as a rope, and it served for purposes almost as varied.
The bandanna made a good sling for a broken arm; it made a good bandage for a blood wound. Early Irish settlers on the Nueces River used to believe that a bandanna handkerchief that had been worn by a drowned man would, if cast into a stream above the sunken body, float until it came over the body and then sink, thus locating the body. Many a cowboy out on the lonely plains has been buried with a clean bandanna spread over his face to keep the dirt, or the coarse blanket on which the dirt was poured, from touching him. The bandanna has been used to hang men. Rustlers used to "wave" strangers around with it as a warning against nearer approach, though the hat was more commonly used for signaling. Like the Mexican sombrero (阔边帽) or the fourgallon Stetson, the bandanna could not be made too large. When the cowboys of the Old West make their final parade on the grassy shores of Paradise, the guidon (旗手) that leads them should be a bandanna handkerchief. It deserves to be called the "flag of the range country". [br] The "flag of the range country" ______.
选项
A、was red, white and blue
B、was flown only in paradise
C、would romantically symbolize the Old West
D、was a decoration used only on special occasions
答案
C
解析
词义题型见第二段最后两句:When the cowboys of the Old West make their final parade on the grassy shores of Paradise,the guidon (旗手) that leads them should be a bandanna handkerchief. It deserves to be called the“flag of the range country". (当老西部的牛仔在 Paradise(伊甸园)的广阔草原上作最终的游行时,引领队伍的队旗应是这印花大手帕,它应该被称作为“牛仔王国的旗帜”);因为它是那时的象征,代表着老西部,因此C应为答案。
