【答案解析】[听力原文]
{{U}}A man has pleaded guilty in a federal court in New York to hijacking an American airliner to Cuba more than 40 years ago.{{/U}} Luis Armando Pena Soltren, an American citizen, admitted to boarding the Pan American flight in 1968 and ordering its diversion to Cuba in mid-flight. {{U}}He spent four decades in Cuba until surrendering to the US authorities last year.{{/U}}
[解析] 细节题。听音时注意题干中的时间点over 40 years ago。新闻提到“一名男子承认曾在40多年前劫持一架美国航班飞往古巴……他承认在1968年登上泛美航空的航班，在途中下令飞机转向古巴”，由此看出D项正确，A不是40多年前的事；B错在flight to Cuba；C无中生有。
单选题

A.He has Cuban citizenship.
B.He involved in an anti-America activity.
C.He had stayed in Cuba for 40 years before surrendering.
D.He was arrested in Cuba by the US authorities.
【正确答案】
C
【答案解析】[解析] 细节题。新闻提到这名男子是美国公民，故A错误；B新闻未提到；录音最后说“他在古巴逗留了四十年，直到去年向美国当局自首”，C是此句的同义转述，故为答案。D错在arrested in Cuba。
