答案解析

Passage three
After years of study, I have determined there are only two types of people in this world: those who get to the airport early and those who walk in just as the plane is about to take off. [33]If there were any justice in the world, the early airport people would be rewarded for doing the right thing and the late airport people would be punished. But there is no justice. I know I have been an early airport person for years. My luggage will get on the plane first but it will be the last luggage to come off the plane when we land. [34]You know who really gets his luggage first when we land? The late airport person, who rushes into the airport three minutes before the plane takes off. "But if I get there real real early," I told myself, "I will get the best seat." Well, no matter how early I showed up, I was always told that someone had called two or three days ahead of me and asked for that seat. The utmost embarrassment of the early airport person happened to me a few years ago when I was flying from New York to Chicago. When I got to the ticket counter, the person there said, "Sir, you have a seat on the 9:15 A.M. flight, is that right?" "Yes," I said. "Well, it's only 7:00 A.M. flight that has not left yet. If you hurry you can make it." [35]I was too embarrassed to say that I arrived early so I wouldn't have to hurry. Instead, I ran down the corridor to the plane.

Questions 33 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.
33. What does the speaker say about the early airport person?
正确答案：D
解析：短文说世界上有两类人，然后一一叙述他们的表现和遭遇。此题考查的是第一种人的遭遇。所以D正确。选项为某种人的惯常行为或遭遇。虚拟语气往往是考点。此题依据文中的关键词reward，原词包含在答案之中。
34. What usually happens to the late airport person?
正确答案：C
解析：短文说，你知道谁在下飞机后首先拿到行李吗？是后登机的人。所以C正确。选项仍为某种人的遭遇。文中的问题有时候也可能是被考查的问题。自问自答之后得出此题答案。
35. What made the speaker feel embarrassed?
正确答案：A
解析：说话人讲了自己的一次尴尬遭遇：他要乘9:15的航班，却被告知赶紧去赶7:00那班飞机。可推断他应该登错机。选项为某人遇到的窘境。数字无论是否直接考查，都要充分地利用。
