Long bus rides are like television shows. They have a beginning, a middle, and an end—with commercials thrown in every three or four minutes. The commercials are unavoidable. They happen whether you want them or not. Every couple of minutes a billboard glides by outside the bus window. "Buy Super Clean Toothpaste." "Drink Good’n Wet Root Beer. " "Fill up with Pacific Gas. " Only if you sleep, which is equal to turning the television set off, are you spared the unending cry of "You Need It! Buy It Now!"
The beginning of the ride is comfortable and somewhat exciting, even if you’ve traveled that way before. Usually some things have changed—new houses, new buildings, sometimes even a new road. The bus driver has a style of driving and it’s fun to try to figure it out the first hour or so. If the driver is particularly reckless or daring, the ride can be as thrilling as a suspense story. Will the driver pass the truck in time? Will the driver move into the right or the left-hand lane? After a while, of course, the excitement dies down. Sleeping for a while helps pass the middle hours of a ride. Food always makes bus rides more interesting. But you’ve got to be careful of what kind of food you eat. Too much salty food can make you very thirsty between stops.
The end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning. You know it will soon be over and the hours have passed. By now you’ve sat with your legs crossed, with your hands in your lap, with your hands on the arm rests—even with your hands crossed behind your head.
The end comes just at the right time. There are just no more ways to sit. [br] According to the passage, what do the passengers usually see when they are on a long bus trip?
选项
A、Buses on the road.
B、Films on television.
C、Advertisements on billboards.
D、Gas station.
答案
C
解析
细节题。第一段的开始部分讲述了乘坐长途汽车旅行就像看电视。随着汽车往前开,路两边的广告不断地从窗边闪过(Long bus rides are like television shows.They have a beginning,a middle,and an end—with commercials thrown in every three or four minutes.)(长途旅行就像电视节目。有开头、中间和结尾一每隔三四分钟还有广告。广告是难以避免的。)其他选项内容都没有提到,因此答案是C.
