单选题 By saying that "Coke has hardly been sitting on its thumbs", the author means that ______.

A、 it is impossible for Coke to be indifferent to the situation
B、 it is difficult for Coke to get out of the failures and reverse the situation
C、 Coke can't be the best forever and it is losing its shares to Pepsi
D、 Coke has realized that it should learn from others to improve itself

【正确答案】 A

【答案解析】[解析] 本题主要考查对sitting。no its thumbs这个短语意思的理解；根据下文的 Last year it brought out Diet Coke with lemon，and the company is now gearing up to launch Vanilla Coke．可知，去年公司推出了柠檬味的减肥可乐，目前公司正推出香草味的可乐。由此可知，可口可乐公司不会坐视事态的发展。因此A项“可口可乐公司不可能对形势漠不关心”与原文的意思吻合。
