A fire drill is, to put it mildly, an inconvenient exercise at the best of times. A fire drill at 2:00 in the morning in terrible weather conditions, like the one we had on Thursday night - Friday morning last, is incomparably more inconvenient. This is why writing this note to thank you all most sincerely for your excellent co-operation and the spirit with which you endured the inconvenience.
A fire drill is not an idle exercise. It is an extremely serious one and can, in fact, save lives in the long run. Last week’ s fire drill has already revealed a number of important things regarding fire precautions in the Hall. For instance, there seem to exist a number of "deaf spots" in the Hall, namely, the two rooms in Purser House and some rooms in the Bottom Corridor. I have no reason to doubt that residents from these areas could not hear the alarm. I shall request an immediate examination of this problem.
I should, also, remind you that it is a requirement that fire drills should be regularly carried out(at least two in every one year)and each resident should be made fully aware of this and obliged to take part. All residents must take fire precautions with the seriousness they deserve. Failure to do so can result in fines and expulsion(驱逐)from the Hall. Thank you again for your co-operation. [br] Some people did not make their appearance at the last drill because______.
选项
A、they were deaf
B、they could not hear the alarm
C、nobody waked them up
D、they refused to leave their rooms
答案
B
解析
本题属于事实细节题,提问的是上次的消防演习中有些居民没有参与的原因。根据文章第二段第四、五句话“For instance,there seem to exist a number of‘deaf spots’in the Hall,...I have no reason to doubt that residents from these areas could not hear the alarm”,显然演习中也出现了盲点,大楼中可能有两个地方的警报没响,所以居民因没有听到警报声而来参与,故选项B)符合句意。
