A father with Parkinson's disease was arrested as he watched the Olympic cycling road race because he failed to smile or look as if he was enjoying himself.
Mark Worsfold, a martial arts trainer and former soldier, claims that he was thrown to the floor and handcuffed just as cyclists passed by. His worried wife Nicola only found out he was being held after she reported him missing when he did not turn up for their daughter's ninth birthday party. The 54­year­old man had his fingerprints, DNA and mugshot taken before being questioned about why he did not appear to be enjoying the event on July 28. Police said Mr. Worsfold, who was held for over five hours, was arrested because of his manner,his state of dress and his being too near to the course. A spokesman added that the arrest was necessary to avoid a breach(破坏) of the peace because he was standing near a group of protesters(抗议者).
But Mr. Worsfold, who was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in 2010, said that one of the symptoms of the disease is muscle rigidity, which can cause his face to become expressionless. “I was sitting minding my own business”, he told a local newspaper. “Before I knew anything the police grabbed me off this seven­foot wall, threw me to the floor and handcuffed me, so all I saw of the cycle race was between the feet of people from the pavement. It could have been done better. I was arrested for not smiling. I have Parkinson's disease.”
Mr. Worsfold has since asked for a letter of not being guilty from police. The officers who made the arrest have apologized to him.

最佳答案
(答案→)B 解析:本文是一篇新闻报道。主要报道了英国一名帕金森病患者因看奥运自行车公路赛时面无表情而被警方逮捕的有关情况。【小题1】答案:B 词义猜测题。根据语境知,这位54岁的老人留下了自己的指纹,并采集了DNA信息和照片。由“taken”知B项符合题意。【小题2】答案:D 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“...because he failed to smile”和第二段倒数第二句“...because of his manner,his state of dress and his being too near to the course.”可知D项正确。【小题3】答案:B 推理判断题。选项A文章未涉及;根据第二段第四句的“...who was held for over five hours”可排除C项;根据第三段第一句排除D项。故B项正确。疑难词汇解读1.diagnose v.诊断The doctor diagnosed measles.医生诊断出麻疹。2.arrest v.逮捕,拘留A man has been arrested and is being questioned now.已逮捕了一位男子,正在审问。
