For one Japanese man and his wife, attending the World Cup match between Japan and Russia on Sunday is likely to be a bitter sweet experience. Kazusada and Mari Sumiyama will be in the stands in memory of their son Yoichi, a fervent(狂人的)soccer fan who died in the September 11 attacks in the United States.
Yoichi, 34, was so excited last year by the prospect of the World Cup that he called his parents in February from New York, where he worked for Fuji Bank in the World Trade Center, asking them to apply for tickets, the Yomiuri Shimbun newspaper said. When his parents visited Yoichi in July, his father Kazusada — also a soccer devotee(热衷者)—told him he had picked up two tickets and they would make it a father-son event. "1 will manage to get vacation somehow," an overjoyed Yoichi reportedly said. "I will be there no matter what. " But fate intervened in September, when Yoichi was one of 2,823 people killed after two hijacked planes slammed into the twin towers of the World Trade Center and destroyed them. Although Yoichi had left his office high in the South Tower after the first plane struck the other tower and evacuated to the ground floor, he went back up following an announcement that it was safe and was there when the second plane hit.
In February this year, following long days of grieving when they were unable to eat or meet people, Kazusada suggested to Mari that she attend the World Cup match their son had looked forward to so much, the Yomiuri said. To do so, however, meant officially changing the name on the ticket. This in turn meant having Yoichi declared dead — a step that Japanese are often reluctant to take in cases where a body has not been recovered. Early in April, on virtually the same day that they received the new ticket issued in Mari’s name, came word that Yoichi’s remains had been found.
"I am going to the match because I know it will please my son, " Mari was quoted by the Yomiuri saying. Kazusada in turn said: "Most likely, our son is now moving around, free of the limits of time and space. 1 am sure that, somewhere, he too will be watching the match. " [br] We can infer from the 3rd paragraph that ______.
选项
A、the old couple still thought that their son would come back one day before their decision to see the match
B、the old couple didn’t believe that their son had been dead because the body had not been recovered
C、the old couple accepted the reality when they decided to attend to the World Cup match
D、the old couple were convinced in April that their son had been dead
答案
C
解析
本题为深层推理题,提问的是我们可从第三段中获得什么信息。从文章第三段我们可以看出,两位老人知道他们的儿子已经死去,但他们无法接受这样的现实,到二月份他们决定去看球,才意味着他们接受了这一点,但这不是说在此之前他们还不相信他们的儿子已经死了,只是不愿意去相信,所以答案是C)。同时也就说明A)、B)、D)是错的。
