问题     In England everyone talks about the weather. It is the most common subject. They start talking like this, "Do you think it will rain?" "Isn’t it a fine day?"
    Many people think they can tell what the weather is going to be like. But they never agree with each other. One may say, "Do you see how cloudy it is in the east? It’s going to rain tomorrow." The other may say, "But it’s going to clear up."
    People often look for the weather they want. When a farmer needs water, he looks for something to tell him it is going to rain, and he won’t believe anything else. When friends have a picnic, they are so sure the sky is going to become clear very quickly that they won’t sit eating their lunch while it rains.
    Almost everyone listens to what the weatherman says. But he doesn’t tell them what they want. He will come closer to being correct than anyone else.
When someone says "Isn’t it a fine day?" he means ______ .

选项 A、he doesn’t know it is a fine day
B、he doesn’t think it is a fine day
C、he thinks it is a fine day

答案C

解析 “Isn’t it a fine day?”是英国人见面谈论天气的常用语,不是疑问句,常作为一次谈话的开场白,既可以用于朋友间,又可以用于陌生人之间。该句意思是“今天天气很好。”表明说话人希望有个好天气。
