【正确答案】
B
【答案解析】[听力原文] A man was arrested on suspicion of attempting to carry explosives through a security checkpoint at an airport, authorities said. They Scott Atwater was taken into prison Saturday morning after Transportation Security Administration (TSA) agents spotted what they described as a suspicious item. The item was in his carry-on during X-ray screening at a security checkpoint at the airport, an FBI spokesman said in a statement. Neither the FBI nor the TSA identified the explosives, though an airport spokeswoman said the items were 'wrapped in military grade wrapping' and are in the possession of the police. At no time was there any danger to the people at the airport. The airport terminal was temporarily closed while authorities 'conducted a sweep, and deemed all clear, ' said a city spokeswoman. Atwater has been arrested on a federal count of attempting to get on an aircraft with an explosive. Who found the suspicious item at the airport? 根据录音,运输安全管理特工(TSA agent)发现(spot)可疑物,B正确。录音两次提到FBI(联邦调查局),一次是FBI发言人说在机场安检处X光扫描时发现Atwater的随身包中有可疑物,另一次提及FBI和TSA都没能确认爆炸物。录音只提到“可疑物现在警方手中”,也没有提到passenger等字眼,由此排除A、C、D。
【正确答案】
D
【答案解析】[听力原文] What do we learn about the airport from the news report? D“机场乘客安然无恙”对应录音中的at no time Was there any danger,故选D。新闻中提到,可疑物现在警方手中(in the possession of the police),所以机场现在并不是处于危险状态,A错误。新闻还提到机场临时关闭(temporarily closed)候机楼,对机场内部进行全面彻底的搜查(conducted a sweep),故B“候机楼稍后仍保持开放状态”和C“对机场外部进行了彻底搜查”与新闻内容相反。
