A．Instructiv
B．Humorou
C．Seriou
D．Teasin
参考答案D
解析:观点态度题。文章开篇第二段提到了average，并用“Poor suckers，mostly”表明个人看法。之后第七段明显用调侃的语气解释政客们对于排队的利用“though he’s first driven by motorcade past the stop nearest his house to a station 22 blocks away，where the wait，or at least the ride，is shorter”，而作者这种对美国特权阶级不排队的嘲弄之情在最后两段表露无遗，先是说“Very Important Persons，who don’t wait，and Very Impatient Persons，who do—unhappily．”，接着指出对于普通民众而言，只能“We wait．We are bored．”，这是对特权的讽刺，对普通人的无奈，故[D]为答案。[A]意为“教育性的”，本文并非对读者进行某种教育，排除；另外，全篇充满了作者对富人不排队的暗讽，与 [B]“幽默的”语体色彩不吻合，同时也可以排除[C]C“严肃的”。
