UP to 32 people were killed in two bomb attacks Monday in the Syrian city of Horns, near the border with Lebanon. The second attack killed people who gathered to see the damage of an earlier car bomb. A suicide bomber entered the crowd and exploded a bomb hidden in clothing.
    The attacks took place in the al-Zahraa district, in the central part of the city. State-controlled media say 19 people were killed in the two bombings. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights says 32 people were killed. Many others were hurt.
    It was the second major attack in Horns since the government and rebel forces reached a ceasefire agreement this month. The government will take back areas of the city controlled by rebels.
    On December 12, two bombings killed at least 16 people. Those attacks also took place in the al-Zahraa district. The Islamic State terrorist group claimed responsibility for the attacks.
    The Wall Street Journal newspaper reports that many people who live in the neighborhood are members of the Alawite sect. The newspaper reports the area is often "attacked by anti-government rebels armed with rockets and vehicle bombs."
5. What do we learn about the bomb attacks from the news report?
6. What did the state-controlled media say?
7. What happened on December 12?

选项 A、The bomb attacks occurred in Lebanon.
B、The bomb attacks occurred in Horns.
C、Up to 32 people were killed in a car bomb.
D、Up to 16 people were killed in two bomb attacks.

答案 B

解析 新闻开头说到,在靠近黎巴嫩边界的叙利亚城市Homs发生两起爆炸袭击事件,造成多达32人死亡。B“爆炸袭击发生在Homs”正确。新闻提到爆炸袭击发生在靠近黎巴嫩边界的叙利亚城市而非发生在黎巴嫩,故排除A。两起爆炸共造成了多达32人死亡,故C、D都不对。
