问题 Where did this interview take place?
  
M: Good morning.(8)This is Allen Pierce broadcasting from university radio. In the local news this morning, the mountain-lake cycle tour is about to begin. And in the studio, we have with us Marilyn O’Connor, president of the Ottawa bicycle club, the tour’s sponsor. Marilyn, can you tell us what this tour’s all about?
W: Well, Allen. The mountain-lake cycle tour is a two-day bicycle tour from Ottawa to Kingston and back. (9)It is not a race, but more like an endurance test for recreational cyclists. People do it for fitness and fun and try to better their time every year.
M: How long does it take to cycle one-way, Marilyn?
W: About seven to nine hours for the average cyclist. Racers can do it in four hours. But as I said, the tour is not intended to be a race.
M: How many people will be taking part this year?
W: This is our biggest year ever. We have twelve hundred cyclists registered.
M: I’d hate to be on the road when the cyclists start out.
W: Don’t worry, we’ve introduced staggered starts to avoid these problems.(10)Our first group will leave Ottawa at seven o’clock, and other groups will follow every twenty minutes.
M: Thank you, Marilyn. Now down to the starting line of the university.

选项 A、To meet cyclists from other countries.
B、To race with professional athletes.
C、To exercise and enjoy themselves.
D、To compete for a valuable first prize.

答案C
