问题 单项选择题

M: The taxi driver must have been speeding.
W: Well, not really. He crashed into the tree because he was trying not to hit a box that had fallen off the truck ahead of him.
Question: What do we learn about the taxi driver

A. He turned suddenly and ran into a tree.
B. He was hit by a fallen box from a truck.
C. He drove too fast and crashed into a truck.
D. He was trying to overtake the truck ahead of him.

答案

参考答案:A

解析:男士:出租车司机肯定是超速了。
女士:其实不是的,他尽量避免撞上从前面卡车上掉下来的盒子,却撞到树上了。
所以司机是在躲开盒子时急转弯了才撞上树的。fall off意为“掉落”。
