问题     I fell in love with England because it was quaint (古雅)—all those little houses, looking terribly old-fashioned but nice, like dolls’ houses. I loved the countryside and the pubs, and I loved London. I’ve slightly changed my mind after seventeen years because I think it’s an ugly town now.
    Things have changed. For everybody, England meant gentlemen, fair play, and good manners. The fair play is going, unfortunately, and so are the gentlemanly attitudes and good manners—people shut doors heavily in your face and politeness is disappearing.
    I regret that there are so few comfortable meeting places. You’re forced to live indoors. In Paris I go out much more, to restaurants and nightclubs. To meet friends here it usually has to be in a pub, and it can be difficult to go there alone as a woman. The cafes are not terribly nice.
    As a woman, I feel unsafe here. I spend a bomb on taxis because I will not take public transport after 10 p.m. I used to use it, but now I’m afraid.
    The idea of family seems to be more or less non-existent in England. My family is well united and that’s typically French. In Middlesex I had a neighbour who is 82 now. His family only lived two miles away, but I took him to France for Christmas once because he was always alone.  
The underlined part "it" in Paragraph 4 refers to______.
选项 A、a taxi
B、the money
C、a bomb
D、public transport
答案D
解析 本题为指代猜词题。指代题为猜词题的一种。代词猜词的原则是：就近指代。代词指代在性、数(单数或复数)、格(主格或宾格)以及位置等方面与之接近的名词。就位置而言，如上所述，代词所指代的名词通常在本句与上句之中。此外，逻辑和意义也是衡量的标准，也就是说，正确的答案应该从逻辑、思想内容上和语法搭配上都通顺。本题考查指代词“it”的含义。根据此句前面一句I spend a bomb on taxis because 1 will not take public transport after 10 p.m.意思是“我花费很多钱乘坐出租汽车，因为晚上10点以后我不敢乘坐公共交通车”。接下来就是本句I used to use it，it显然指代的足上句里的public transport(公共交通)，即应选D。 bomb在这里意思是a lot of money。
