单选题
When did the train he was travelling on arrive in Chicago?
【正确答案】
D
【答案解析】[听力原文]19-22
The train I was traveling on was already half an hour late. I had planned to arrive in Chicago at 7:00 in time to catch the 7:50 train to St. Louis, but there was no hope of that now. I explained the situation to the conductor who advised me to get off before Union Station and take a taxi. When the time came, he even helped me with my language. He wished mea good luck as I jumped off, and a few minutes later I was going towards the Union Station in a taxi. It was almost 7:50 when we stopped outside the station, I paid the driver quickly, carried my bags and hurried inside.
"The St. Louis train....'?" was all I had time to say to the first porter I saw. You can imagine my disappointment when he pointed to a train that was just moving out of the station.
[精解] 题干问:“他旅行乘坐的火车什么时候到芝加哥?”听力材料开头说:“The train I was traveling on was already half an hour late.I had planned to arrive in Chicago at 7:00 in time...”由于前两个具体时间都不正确,所以本题的答案只能选D,即“到达时间在预定时间的后面。”
