问题     Daylight Saving Time begins on Monday, April 3, 2005. People in most parts of the United States will turn their clocks ahead one hour.
    The official (正式的) time to turn your clock ahead is early in the morning, April 3. Two a.m. becomes three a.m. Sunday will have only 23 hours. (Most people changes their clocks before they go to sleep Saturday night.)
    In the fall, people turn their clock back an hour. This saying helps people remember which way to turn the clock: "Spring ahead; fall back." (Spring and fall each have two meanings here.)
    We use daylight Saving Time in order to save electricity (电) . We need one less hour of light from electricity each day in the summer.
    Arizona, Hawaii, and parts of Indiana do not use Daylight Saving Time. Not every country uses Daylight Saving Time, either. Countries near the equator (赤道) have no reason to use Daylight Saving Time. Their hours of daylight and darkness are always nearly the same. There is no Daylight Saving Time in Japan, China, or India.
    Countries south of the equator have quite different seasons. They are ending their Daylight Saving Time now.
Most Americans turn their clock ahead early in the morning of April 3, 2005.
选项 A、Right.
B、Wrong.
C、Doesn’t say.
答案C
解析 句意:大多数的美国人都在2005年4月3日清早把钟表调快。是非题。原文第一段中说“夏令时始于2005年4月3日。美国大部分地区的人 都会将表调快一小时。”但是，没有提到“多数的美国人都在2005年4月3日 清早把钟表调快”；第二段中有“正式调整你的钟表的时问是在4月3日的清 早。多数人都会在周六晚上睡觉前调表。”也没有提到多少美国人是在什么 时候把钟表调快的，因此选C。
