问题 单项选择题

下列事由中,能够引起诉讼时效中断的是( )。

A.权利人申请仲裁
B.权利人丧失民事行为能力
C.义务人被宣告死亡
D.当事人所在地发生不可抗力

答案

参考答案:A

解析: 诉讼时效中断的法定事由:(1) 起诉。即权利人依诉讼程序主张权利,请求人民法院强制义务人履行义务。起诉行为是权利人通过人民法院向义务人行使权利的方式。故诉讼时效因此而中断,并从人民法院裁判生效之时重新起算。(2) 请求。这里指权利人直接向义务人作出请求履行义务的意思表示。这一行为是权利人在诉讼程序外向义务人行使请求权。改变了不行使请求权的状态,故应中断诉讼时效。(3) 认诺。即义务人在诉讼时效进行中直接向权利人作出同意履行义务的意思表示。基于义务人认诺所承担的义务,使双方当事人之间的权利义务关系重新得以明确,诉讼时效自此中断,并即时重新起算。认诺的方式有多种多样,包括部分清偿、请求延期给付、支付利息、提供履行担保等。

The house was quiet at 5 a.m. and Tim’s mother was asleep. Only the sound of the big freezer broke the quiet. He dreamt of the cave last night. The purring (轻微颤动声) of the freezer had been the sea.

Tim pulled on a sweater and put some apples into his schoolbag. It was too early for breakfast. He’d eat after he’d been through the cave, sitting on the rocks and staring at the sea.

He wished he had a proper pack. His schoolbag would have to do. What else? Sandwiches—but his mother might wake up if he started pulling out bread for sandwiches, she’d want to know why he had to leave so early. He settled for some biscuits, and left a note stuck to the table:

Gone to Michael’s. Back tonight. Tim.

The sky was high and soft and light outside, though the sun still wasn’t up. Even the highway up the hill was quiet as he made his way down the street. The wind from the sea was fresh and sweet.

The sand hills still breathed heat from yesterday’s sun, though the top of the sand was cool. He ran down to the beach impatiently, but there was no one, just dry sand dancing in the early wind and seabirds marching up and down watching the waves. The light changed suddenly. The first rays of sunlight stretched across the sea. The sun was pushing its way over the edge of the world.

Over the first rocks, along to the point, Tim glanced back. The beach was still empty. The sun sailed higher in the sky.

He could see the cave now, even darker in the morning light. The sand turned silver then dark gold as the water flowed away from it. He had to force himself to go closer. Why was it so much more mysterious now? But it would be silly to go back now after so much trouble. He needn’t go in all the way...
