【答案】C Passage 2
Rosa and her classmates were in a street in West London. The sky was dark. This was Rosa’s big day---her first day in England. Rosa got out of a taxi. The driver carried a very heavy bag for her. They walked through the rain to the front door of a big Victorian house. A small girl opened the door. She was four years old. Her brother stood behind her. He was only two years old. One minute later, a young woman came to the door. \to Wembley!” she said and she offered Rosa her hand. \
\ran back into the living-room. \me Diana! Now let me show you your room and then we can have a nice cup of tea. Or would you like some coffee? \
