问题  
Six times defending Tour de France Winner Lance Armstrong in the United States has hinted that he would retire from cycling at the end of this season.
    The 33-year-old cancer survivor will be going for a record of seven victories in cycling major event this year.  But in an interview with a London newspaper, Armstrong says a loss in the Tour de France might spark thoughts of retirement. Though he says he could not imagine being retired 12 months from now. He also says this could be his last year. Armstrong believes he could react to a loss in one or two different ways, as knowing he has passed his best time that it’ s time for him to retire or that he has to try to win again.
    But the American cycling star makes no secret of the fact that he does not think there’ s a more difficult sporting event anywhere than riding in the Tour de France. Armstrong compares it to a Marathon and Fl Race combined, haying it is dangerous and calling it three weeks of agony.
选项 A、He doesn’t think it is difficult.
B、He doesn’ t think it is more difficult than Marathon.
C、He thinks it is much easier than Fl Race.
D、He thinks it is the most difficult sporting event.
答案 D
解析 综合推理题。通过浏览选项可知，本题考的是“他是如何看待这个事物的”，听新闻时就要留心如何报道这个人的看法和观点。此新闻中关键句子是“But the American cycling star makes no secret of the fact that he does not think there’s a more difficult sporting event any where than riding in the Tour de France．”可见Armstrong毫不掩饰地声称世上没有哪项赛事比“环法自行车赛”更为艰难的了，否定式+比较级表达的是最高级的意思。此外，录音最后说，“Armstrong compares it to a Marathon and F1 Race combined，saying it is dangerous and calling it three weeks of agony”告诉人们，在Armstrong的眼里，马拉松和一级方程式赛车加在一起才可和他一生钟爱的“环法自行车赛”相提并论。
