“unyoked” in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to
A．sent out．
B．released．
C．dispatched．
D．removed．
参考答案B
解析:细节推断题。在定语从句“…tired men and women whom the factory whistles had unyoked”中，“疲劳的男人和女人们”是unyoked的宾语，从本句的上一句“the workers were pouring homeward in the twi—light”和下一句“they flowed in rivers through the clothing factory districts…”可以知道他们是从制衣厂下班回家。所以他们应该是被工厂的哨声解放出来了。只有[B]项“released”可以表达这个意思。[A]和[C]都表示“派遣”，不符合文章的意思，[D]表示“开除”也不符合。
