Which statement is not true?
Hurricane Katrina most likely killed thousands of people in New Orleans, Mayor Ray Nagin said Wednesday as conditions continued to deteriorate in the flood-ravaged city. "We know there is a significant number of dead bodies in the water and other people dead in attics," Nagin said. Asked how many, he said: "Minimum, hundreds. Most likely, thousands." There is no official death toll in New Orleans, as the city is focusing first on trying to save thousands of stranded residents. But Lt. Kevin Cowan of the state Office of Emergency Preparedness told the Associated Press that Nagin’s estimate was plausible. He said that be cause several thousand people have been rescued, it could be assumed there were lots of others who weren’t. "It’s already been several days," Cowan said. "You’ve had reports there are casualties. You all can do the math."
选项
A、Thousands of people were killed in New Orleans.
B、At least hundreds of people died in the hurricane.
C、The government had began to investigate the exact number of the death.
D、Some people died in their attics.
答案
C
解析
细节题。排除错误的说法,首先预览选项,大致了解它们的意思。原文提及“There is no officialdeath toll in New Orleans”,抓住这一点可知C项“政府已经开始调查确切的死亡人数”与原文意思不符,因此本题答案选C。
