  • B. Several months ago.

  • D. Two years ago.
【正确答案】 C
【答案解析】[解析] 22-25 W: Dr. Eric, you were a political journalist in America and I was told that you've chosen to live here, a mountain village like this in the Himalayan Community. Could you tell me why you came to India and settled down here? M: Yes, certainly. I came to India a year ago to have a better understanding of the country. After I arrived, I had to find a place where I could live and write. After some months I settled down happily in this village because it is a little cooler. W: Is the experience in this country so important to you that you came all the way from the United States? M: Well, that's also the question that the villagers ask me. Why do I isolate myself from the outside world in this remote village, like a retired old man? I am no longer working as a political journalist because my ideas have changed. I've come to believe that what is happening in the Third World is more important than anything else. I want to understand how three quarters of the world's people live, and how their future might affect the rest of the world. W: I must say I find your view on this issue very convincing. I'm sure when you go back to your own country you'll find your stay here very rewarding.
