问题
Bob and Linda are tired of the freezing cold days in Glenmont, so they are considering retiring to either Sunny Glen or Buena Vista. Bob points out that Sunny Glen has an average annual temperature 8 degrees Fahrenheit higher than that of Buena Vista. Linda insists, however, that Buena Vista would be the better choice. Which of the following, if true, best accounts for Linda’s preference for Buena Vista?
选项
A、Different people experience cold in different ways, so what seems cold to Linda may seem pleasantly cool to Bob.
B、Sunny Glen has a somewhat higher risk of hurricanes than does Glenmont.
C、Buena Vista has a range of cultural offerings, including an opera, a ballet, and three jazz clubs.
D、Living in a place that gets very hot, such as Sunny Glen, can have as many health risks as living in a place that gets very cold.
E、While Sunny Glen is warmer than Buena Vista in the summer, it also has more freezing cold days in the winter.
答案
E
解析
The passage specifically states that Bob and Linda are seeking to avoid freezing cold days, and answer E states that Buena Vista has fewer freezing cold days than Sunny Glen; this fact accounts for Linda’s preference for Buena Vista, despite Sunny Glen’s higher average temperature.
