问题 Where was the marble statue found
A huge storm that collapsed part of a cliff on Israel’s central coast led to the discovery of a statue dating back to the Roman period, the Israel Antiquities Authority said Tuesday.
    The white marble statue of a woman is estimated to be 2, 000 years old. It stands 1. 2 meters tall, weighs about 200 kilograms and was found with no head or arms, according to a news release by the authority.
    A person walking on the shore at Ashkelon on the coast west of Jerusalem made the discovery, the authority said.
    The statue fell into the sea when the cliff collapsed as a result of the storm. The collapse also ruined a bath house and mosaics that had been in the cliff for many hundreds of years.
    The storm, one of the strongest Israel has experienced in recent years, brought winds of more than 100 kph that sent IOmeter waves crashing into Israel’s coast.

选项 A、Out in the sea.
B、Inside a bath house.
C、On a cliff along the coast.
D、On the coast outside Jerusalem.

答案D

解析 新闻中提到雕像是在耶路撒冷西海岸的阿什克伦的岸边发现的,也就是在耶路撒冷外的海岸上发现的,因此答案为[D]。风暴使悬崖崩塌,雕像落入海中,但雕像既不是在海里发现的,也不是在悬崖上发现的,故排除[A]和[C]。[B]是根据新闻中bath house一词设计的干扰项,容易排除。
