After years of study I have determined that there are only two types of people in this world: those who get to the airport early and those who walk in just as the plane is about to take off. (26) If there were any justice in the world the early airport people would be rewarded for doing the right thing and the late airport people would be punished. But there is no justice. I know I have been an early airport person for years. My luggage will get on the plane first but it will be the last luggage to come off the plane when we land. (27) You know who really gets his luggage first when we land? The late airport person who rushes into the airport three minutes before the plane takes off. "But if I get there real early," I told myself, "I will get the best seat." We’ll, no matter how early I showed up, I was always told that someone had called two or three days ahead of me and asked for that seat. The utmost embarrassment of the early airport person happened to me a few years ago when I was flying from New York to Chicago. When I got to the ticket counter, the person there said "Sir, you have a seat on the 9:15 A.M. flight, is that right?" "Yes," I said. "Well, it’s only 7:00 A.M. and the 7:05 A.M. flight has not left yet. (28) If you hurry you can make it." I was too embarrassed to say that I arrived early so I wouldn’t have to hurry. Instead I ran down the corridor to the plane.
26. What does the speaker say about the early airport person?
27.What usually happens to the late airport person?
28.Why did the speaker feel embarrassed in the airport?
选项
A、He was told that he had boarded the wrong plane.
B、He was not allowed to board the plane he should take.
C、He arrived at the airport without ticket or luggage.
D、He found it difficult to explain why he arrived so early.
答案
D
解析
①推断题。说话者有一次提前了2小时15分到达机场。机场工作人员误以为他赶时间,所以建议他乘7:05分的班机。在这种情况下,说话者特别不好意思的说出自己提前到达机场的真正原因。故D为正确答案。②抓住细节后稍加推理则能正确作答。
