B、False

C>NotGiven

【正確答案】A

【答案解析】答案選Ao問題句說"迄今為止在美國沒有一個女人曾經(jīng)被選舉為

總統(tǒng)”。本段說的是“1969年，美國總統(tǒng)RichardNixon很有信心地預(yù)測：’在下一

個50年里，我們將會看見一個女總統(tǒng)，這或許比你想象的更快些今天距離

Nixon總統(tǒng)給出的最終期限已經(jīng)不遠了，美國人現(xiàn)在正關(guān)注這可能性"。相鄰語句

的句意相關(guān)，顯然，定冠詞結(jié)構(gòu)"thepossibility"指答案相關(guān)句中提到的"可能出現(xiàn)

美國女總統(tǒng)"。從該句中可以推斷出“從1969年到現(xiàn)在為止，美國還沒有出現(xiàn)女

總統(tǒng)"。因此問題句提供了正確信息。
