问题     Of all the recommendations made by Tom Winsor in his review of police pay and recruitment this week, it was not the introduction of an academic qualification, nor the direct entry of senior officers, nor even a pay cut for new recruits that drew most violent anger. No, it was the proposal that all officers should have to take an annual fitness test, with the threat of three failures and you’re out.
    Anyone fortunate enough to encounter a police officer, or two, actually on the beat will be aware that some of them look more like a "before" advertisement for Weight Watchers than an "after" one—to the point where you wonder they could even think of giving chase, should the need arise. Bear in mind, too, that those in patrol cars or behind desks are unlikely to be much healthier. Indeed, the Winsor review found that more than half of male officers were overweight.
    So an annual fitness test seems reasonable enough. Not, however, to the Police Federation, which identified any number of reasons why such checks would be impracticable, unfair and generally undesirable. But no one is proposing that police be required to train to Olympic standards, just that they should be physically up to the job. It’s not the proposed checks that are worrying, but the fact that many officers need them.
Towards the proposed annual fitness test, the attitude of the Police Federation is______.
选项 A、dismal
B、welcome
C、resistance
D、indifference
答案C
解析 对于每年进行健康检查的提议，警察同盟的态度是对抗的态度。从第一段可以看出，警察同盟招聘时，不是学术条件、不是高级官员直接进入警察队伍，也不是给新招募的警员减薪引起最强烈的不满。所有警官必须每年进行一次健康检查的提议引起了最强烈的不满。
