Dozens of children at a Utah elementary school had their lunch trays taken away from them before they could take a bite this week Salt Lake City School District officials said the trays were taken away at Utah Elementary School Tuesday because some students had negative balances in their accounts used to pay for lunches. But they admit the situation should have been handled differently. Instead of regular lunches, the students were given fruit and milk. "We don’t ever let kids go without any food entirely," said Salt Lake City School District spokesman Jason Olsen. One mother said, she was "blindsided" when her daughter described what a school district official told her: "You don’t have any money in your account, so you can’t get lunch." "There were a lot of tears," she said, "and it was pretty upsetting for them." The district said it started notifying parents about negative account balances Monday. But the mother said she and other parents were never told about the problem.
5. Why were some children offered only fruit and milk for lunch?
6. How did parents react to the school’s way of handling the situation?
7. When were the parents informed of negative balances according to the district?

选项 A、They were satisfied.
B、They were surprised.
C、They were angry.
D、They were sad.

答案 B

解析 新闻提到,当听到女儿描述学区要员对她说“你的账户里没有钱了,所以不能得到午餐”时,妈妈遭受到了意外的打击(blindsided)。由此可知,B为答案,其中surprised对应录音中的blindsided。A“满意的”与家长的反应截然相反。新闻没有提及家长们很愤怒,排除C。新闻中提到的a lot of tears和pretty upsetting都是孩子的反应,排除D。
