单选题{{B}}Passage One{{/B}} It was Friday, the day of the field trip on which Miss Joan would take her class to pick apples. Miss Joan enjoyed picking apples with her students. She smiled as she led her students to the bus that would take them to the Greenly Apple Orchard (果园) . The bus ride was bumpy and the kids were a little noisy, but still Miss Joan was smiling. The bus stopped in front of the Greenly Apple Orchard and the class got off quickly and quietly. Miss Joan made sure everyone was there. "What a glorious, sunny, apple picking day," Miss Joan announced with her grandest smile. Mr. Greenly was there to greet them. "Let's see, there are eighteen children and two adults at three dollars each. That will be sixty dollars, please." Miss Joan held up the brochure in her hand. "It says that the price is two dollars each," she pointed out. "That's what I collected from everyone." "We've had to raise the price," Mr. Greenly stated. "You sent me this brochure after we made our reservation," Miss Joan complained, "and it says two dollars!" "Miss Joan, if you look at the bottom of this brochure," Mr. Greenly said, "you'll notice very important statement." Sure enough, in very tiny letters, it said, "Prices are subject to change without notice." Miss Joan was determined to keep her good mood. She took a twenty dollars bill out of her own purse and handed it to Mr. Greenly with the forty dollars she had in an envelope. "Now children, do you all have your baskets?" Miss Joan called out. "Remember, each of you can pick as many apples as possible." Mr. Greenly said, "You can't pick as many apples as possible." "I beg your pardon? Miss Joan was not smiling now. "The brochure says, 'ALL YOU CAN PICK'!" Mr. Greenly pointed to the tiniest letters Miss Joan had ever almost seen. It also says, "Terms and conditions of group reservations are subject to change without notice." Miss Joan's good mood was now history. She didn't want to set a bad example for her students, so she said in a calm and quiet voice, "We're going home, give me our money back, please."

单选题The current emergency in Mexico City that has taken over our lives is nothing I could ever have imagined for me or my children. We are living in an environmental crisis, an air-pollution emergency of unprecedented severity. What it really means is that just to breathe here is to play a dangerous game with your health. As parents, what terrorizes us most are reports that children are at higher risk because they breathe more times per minute. What more can we do to protect them and ourselves? Our pediatrician's (儿科医师的) medical recommendation was simple: abandon the city permanently. We are foreigners and we are among the small minority that can afford to leave. We are here because of my husband's work. We are fascinated by Mexico--its history and rich culture. We know that for us, this is a temporary danger. However, we cannot stand for much longer the fear we feel for our boys. We cannot stop them from breathing. But for millions, there is no choice. Their lives, their jobs, their futures depend on being here. Thousands of Mexicans arrive each day in this city, desperate for economic opportunities. Thousands more are born here each day. Entire families work in the streets and practically live there. It is a familiar sight: as parents hawk goods at stoplights, their children play in the grassy highway dividers, breathing exhaust fumes. I feel guilty complaining about my personal situation; we won't be here long enough for our children to form the impression that skies are colored only gray. And yet the government cannot do what it must to end this problem. For any country, especially a developing Third World economy like Mexico's, the idea of barring from the capital city enough cars, closing enough factories and spending the necessary billions on public transportation is simply not an option. So when things get bad, as in the current emergency, Mexico takes half measures--prohibiting some more cars from circulating, stopping some factories from producing--that even its own officials concede aren't adequate. The word "emergency" implies the unusual. But when daffy life itself is an emergency, the concept loses its meaning. It is human nature to try to adapt to that which we cannot change, or to mislead ourselves into believing we can adapt.
