Why did the speaker want to open the window in the small restaurant?
Is the world really going mad? The other day I was sitting in a small restaurant having a quiet drink and a talk with a few friends, when it suddenly struck me that almost everyone in the restaurant was smoking.It wasn’t long before the whole room was filled with smoke. I asked with an apology for permission to open a window to stop myself dying.
Nowadays air pollution is something that we hardly question any more. However, I still can’t walk down the streets in any of the big cities without thinking that people are suffering from the air pollution. It is time for the government departments the world over to introduce emission control on all cars and improve the public transport system to encourage people to leave their cars at home. A friend of mine takes flying lessons each morning and it really makes him sick when he climbs above the smog layer and looks down in it and thinks:"I’m breathing that! " This kind of pollution results from the bad management of resources. Waste things can, and should, be treated properly.House building, road construction and industrial development are all earth-moving operations and can change the balances of life created over millions of years. I would like to see serious studies done on all these main works before they are built. Also, there should be more national parks set up to keep the most beautiful parts of our countries in their natural states.
选项
A、Because he felt too hot inside.
B、Because he wanted to smoke there.
C、Because the restaurant was too smoky.
D、Because he wanted to stop himself dying.
答案
C
解析
细节题。短文说,作者猛然意识到:小餐馆里几乎每个人都在抽烟。没过多久,烟雾就弥漫了整个房间,作者受不了,就请求开了窗户。D项的stop…dying非常具有干扰性,显然作者是在夸张表达自己非常受不了这个烟味,而不是真正快要死了,C项才是正确答案。
