I came to India a year ago to find a village in which I could live and write but it was many months before I settled down happily in this Himalayan community.
I wasted a lot of time looking for the "typical" village, yet no such thing exists. Conditions vary too widely. But the villages I stayed in had much in common—poverty, dirt, ignorance. Often the villagers themselves were puzzled, suspicious. Why had I come? I had put aside my work as a political journalist because my ideas had changed. I had come to believe that what was happening in the Third World was more important than anything else. But to understand how three-quarters of the world’s people live, and how their future might affect ours, I felt that I first had to try and share their way of life.
In the end I chose a mountain village because it was a little cooler than those in the plains. I took the bus from town along a bumpy road. Then came a rough walk down a steep path to the river. After this I began the climb into the Mils. Whenever I stopped to catch my breath, there was a magnificent view. After several hours’ walk the village came into view. [br] The writer decided to change his way of life because______.
选项
A、he no longer found his work interesting
B、he wanted to live a peaceful life in the countryside
C、he wanted to find out more about the Third World
D、he thought living in a small community would be rewarding
答案
C
解析
文章第二段最后一句说:“但要想懂得世界上3/4的人是怎么生活的,他们的未来会怎样影响我们,我感到我首先必须试着学会他们的生活方式。”由此我们可以看出,作者分享他们的生活方式也就意味着改变自己原有的生活方式,只有这样,他才认为能够发现有关第三世界国家的更多知识,因此选项C正确。选项A、B、D均不符合文章内容。
