73.
There is one part of women’s magazines that every man reads. It is the section popularly known as the" agony columns"
, where women, and increasingly men, write for advice on their emotional problems. The person who answers these letters usually has a very reassuring name which suggests a gentle middle - aged lady with lots of wisdom and experience. At one time, it used to be widely believed that the letters were in fact all made up by someone on the editorial staffs, and that the" Aunt Mary" who provided the answers was a fat man with a beard, who drank like a fish, smoked like a chimney, and was unfaithful to his wife into the bargain. Although this may be true in some cases, the majority of the advice columns are genuine, and the advesory staff are highly qualified people with a deep understanding of human problems. At one time, only the answers were published, not the letters themselves. Much of the fun in reading them lay in trying to work out what on earth the problem was that led to such peculiar answers. Nowadays everything is much more explicit, and questions of the most intimate kind are fully dealt with. As the agony columns have become more professional and frank, a lot of fun has gone out of them. This is undoubtedly a good thing, because there is something very bad about it, that is, tendency to laugh at the misfortunes of our fellow man. [br] We can infer from the passage that "reassuring" means______.
选项
A、making you feel calmer
B、jocking
C、sweet and beautiful
D、ridiculous
答案
A
解析
推理判断题。“agony columns”是为读者解决疑惑的,安慰读者的,所以“reassuring”是指让读者听起来镇静的,因此选A。
