Question

【题目】根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。
Dear Sir，
I have to travel every day from Souk Road to the airport. Two buses travel along this route—No.49 and No.16. However, by the time No.16 reaches Souk Road, it's always full.The timetable states that there are buses from Souk Road to the airport every ten minutes.The instructions state that if there are empty seats on a bus, the bus must stop at every stop where people are waiting.
The instructions state that no bus may carry more than 40 seated passengers and 20 standing passengers. Yesterday, I was the first to get off the bus when it reached the airport.There were 129 of them.
Clearly printed on the back of every bus is a sign that says “Maximum speed 50mph.” Saturday morning a No.49 bus travelled the distance in ten minutes, at an average speed of 60mph. At times it must have done it at least 80 or even 90 mph.
It is obvious that our bus companies have neither respect for the instructions nor consideration for their passengers. Can nothing be done about this?
Jeff
A I counted the other passengers as they got off.
B Is there anything we can do to change this?
C The problem is that we can have to pay more for our trip.
D The distance from Souk Road to the airport is 10 miles.
E This leaves No.49 which sometimes has empty seats on it.
F If this is so, why do I have to wait half an hour for a bus nearly every day?
G Why is it that halfempty buses go straight past me when I am standing at the bus stop？

Answer 1

【答案】E；F；G；A；D
【解析】1根据所缺句子的前一句“However, by the time No.16 reaches Souk Road, it's always full.”知然而，当16路车到达Souk路的时候，车上总是满的。结合选项分析，这种情况导致了49路车有时候有一些空位。故选E。
2根据该空前一句“The timetable states that there are buses from Souk Road to the airport every ten minutes.”可知，时间表表明从Souk路到机场的巴士每十分钟就有一辆。由于这是一封抱怨信，这一句可以成为下一句提出疑问的理由。结合选项分析，如果是真的话，为什么“我”几乎每天都需要等半个小时呢？故选F。
3该空前一句“The instructions state that if there are empty seats on a bus, the bus must stop at every stop where people are waiting.”表明，如果车上有空座位，巴士必须在人们等待的每一站停留。根据这一句，可以分析出下一句跟车不停有关，故选G。
4根据该空后一句“There were 129 of them.”可以推断出前一句一定是和人数有关的词，故选A项。当其他乘客下车时“我”数了数下车的人数。
5结合该段可知，作者是在分析车的时速。该段落中列举了规定的最高时速以及该段路程的实际行车时间，还需要这一段路的距离才能进行比对，故选D。
