问题 Passage2Merchant and passenger ships are generally required to have a life preserver for every person aboard and in many cases,a certain percentage of smaller sizes for children.According to United States requirements,life preservers must design,reversible capable of being quickly adjusted to fit the uninitiated individual,and must be so designed as to support the wearer in the water in an upright or slightly backward position.Sufficient buoyancy(浮力)to support the wearer should be retained by the life preserver after 48 hours in the water,and it should be reliable even after long period of storage.Thus it should be made of materials resistant to sunlight,gasoline,and oils,and it should be not easily set on fire.The position in which the life preserver will support a person who jumps or falls into the water is most important,as is its tendency to turn the wearer in the water from a face-down position to an upright or slightly backward position,with his face clear of the water,even when the wearer is exhausted or unconscious.The method of adjustment to the body should be simple,and self-evident to uninitiated persons even in the dark under the confused conditions,which follow a disaster.Thus,the life be reversible that it is nearly impossible to get it on wrong.Catches,straps,and ties should be kept to a minimum.In addition,the life preserver must be adjustable to the wide variety of shapes and sizes of wearers,since this greatly affects the position of floating and the self-righting qualities.A suitable life also be comfortable to wear at all times,in and out of the water,not so heavy as to encourage to take it off on shipboard while the ship is in danger,nor so burdensome that it hinders a person in the water while trying to swim.The passage is mainly about(  ).A.the uses of life preserversB.the design of life preserversC.the materials for life preserversD.the buoyancy of life preservers

选项 A.the uses of life preservers
B.the design of life preservers
C.the materials for life preservers
D.the buoyancy of life preservers

答案 B

解析 文章主要讲述了救生衣的设计。间接题型段首主旨题。C项和D项都是对救生衣设计中设计材料的说明。A项为陷阱,指救生衣的用途,尽管开头提到,但范围不着边际。故只有B是正确选项。
