问题 In contrast to Disney World, one of the characters in the service sector is that ______.
When mentioning "the South’s weather got in the way of its development" (Line I, Paragraph 3), the author is talking about ______.

选项 A、the reason why Walt Disney chose Floridaing.
B、the reason why air-conditioning spread in the South.
C、the South’s weather obstructs the progress of development.
D、the key factor to the success of the South.

答案C

解析 第三段开头:For a long time the South’s weather got in the way of its development.…"Smallish barren farms almost lost in the white heat of a hot and humid summer sun as the owners and their help fought swarms of mosquitoes to plant,cultivate and harvest the meagre cotton crop for market".本题既可以通过理解关键词组来作答,也可以通过后文的描述来解答。本段的第一句用get in the way这一词组来解释天气对南方发展的影响,其意思是"妨碍";但如果考生不了解此词组的含义,还可以根据下文Richard Pillsbury教授对南方描述的词汇Smallish barren,hot and humid,meagre中得知其气候条件比较恶劣,所以阻碍南方发展。注意:有的试题解题思路突破点不止一处。迪斯尼公司在南方选址不是因为南方的地理劣势,作者写此段的目的是为了先抑后扬,A不对。D选项的意思与正确答案完全相反。B谈到空调的问题,此句意思是正确的,空调能够在南方流行确实与南方恶劣的气候相关,但文章的目的不是讲空调的销售,而是说空调的普及解决了南方气候对其发展造成的影响。谨记:正确的观点不一定是正确的答案,错误的观点也未必是错误的选项。
