W: We now interrupt our regular scheduled news program to bring you live up-to-date coverage on the civil unrest in the newly formed country of Karnak, where our man Stan Fielding is stationed. Stan.
M: This is Stan Fielding reporting live from the suburbs of the capital city. Just 20 minutes ago, rebel forces launched the biggest offensive against the ruling government (22) in the 18-month conflict here in this country.
W: Now Stan, is this a sign that the peace process has been totally abandoned?
M: Well, so far, peace negotiations have failed, and any resolution to end the civil war appears bleak at this moment. (23) As you can see... Oh.
W: Stan, Stan, are you there?
M: Yes, Shelly. As you can probably hear behind me, rebel forces are also using heavy artillery to pound the positions of government forces around the city center. Rebel forces are closing in, and it’s feared that they will be able to take the capital building before daybreak (24) where, it is believed, many government officials are holding out.
W: Now, besides the heavy fighting, what other pressing concerns are there for the citizens of the city?
M: Well, since the beginning of the conflict, starvation, and lack of clean water and adequate shelter have been the biggest daily obstacles facing the citizens of this war-torn country. (25) It is believed that over 40,000 people, mostly children, have starved to death. Fortunately, no epidemics have broken out, but that is always a concern if this war lingers on.
W: Ok, that was Stan Fielding reporting. And we will keep you up-to-date as this story continues to unfold.
22. What is the news coverage mainly about?
23. What does the reporter Stan Fielding say about the situation in Karnak?
24. At what time of day do you think this news report is being made?
25. What is the pressing concern for the citizens of Karnak?
选项
A、Late in the morning.
B、Early in the afternoon.
C、Sometime before dawn.
D、Shortly after sunrise.
答案
C
解析
推理题。浏览选项可知,此题考查时间。对话中只有一处提到了时间,即叛军will be able to take the capital building before daybreak(黎明前),由于该新闻报道是实况转播,由此可推断报道的时间也是before daybreak,而dawn也就是daybreak,故答案选C。
