In 1979, Margaret Thatcher became Prime Minister of Great Britain. Her accession was one of the most important steps in finally making the Chunnel a reality. Thatcher had made it part of her political platform, finally giving the project full political weight. Still, it was not until two years later, when Thatcher met with French President Frangois Mitterand for one of their routine economic meetings, that she and he organized a committee to take a new and serious look at building the Chunnel. Both political leaders felt that the underwater tunnel would be advantageous to their respective countries by bringing important financial support to local businesses as well as providing jobs to counteract growing unemployment. Both Thatcher and Mitterand also knew that it would enhance their image worldwide and leave behind a legacy of their respective times in office. [br] Which of the following sentences can be inferred from this passage about the Chunnel?
选项
A、At one time, the idea of the Chunnel was not necessarily a viable one.
B、The Chunnel was originally Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher’s idea.
C、French President Francois Mitterand often agreed with Margaret Thatcher’s ideas.
D、The Chunnel was an overhead bridge that would connect England and France.
E、Construction of the Chunnel was going to be challenging to the European economy.
答案
A
解析
The best answer is A. According to the passage, the idea of the Chunnel existed before Thatcher’s appointment to Prime Minister. However, it was not acted upon for years. Something must have delayed its construction. Therefore, it is implied that the idea of a Chunnel was not always considered viable.
