The time is 7 o’clock, and this is Amely Brown with the news.

The 500 U.K. motor workers who had been on strike in High Town for the past 3 weeks went back to work this morning. This follows successsful talks between management and union representatives, which resulted in a new agreement on fewer working hours. A spokesman for the managemnt said that they hoped they could now get back to producing cars and they lost a lot of money and orders over this dispute. And finally, the weather: After a cold starts, most of the country shall be warm and sunny. But towards late afternoon, rain will spread from Scotland to cover most parts by midnight.
选项
A、They wanted higher pay.
B、They wanted fewer working hours.
C、They wanted better working conditions.
D、They wanted an annual three-week holiday.
答案
B
解析
本题考查考生对文章部分主旨要义的推断能力。第二条新闻的主要内容是工人罢工结束,返回工作岗位。但是题目要求考生答出工人罢工的目的,答案并未直接出自原文“which resulted in a new agreement on fewer working hours.”,而需要考生进行推断,新闻说工人和厂家的淡判成功,又说缩短工时达成了协议,可见,工人罢工的目的是为缩短工时。其他三项均不符合题意,文中未涉及。
