Question

Japan says its prime minister promised to provide the world with "maximum transparency" about ____ accident at the Fukushima nuclear power plant during _____ telephone call. 

A．the; a

B．the; the

C．an; the

D．an; a

Answer 1

A

考查冠词。福岛核电站的事故应用定冠词the；而电话谈话没有指明是哪一次，因此用不定冠词表泛指。句意为：日本表示，日本首相在一次电话谈话中承诺以“最大的透明度”向全世界通报福岛核电站的事故情况。
