练习 1
The mayor is concerned about media exposure and his son Freddie. What is his concern exactly?
The mayor is concerned about media exposure and his son Freddie. What is his concern exactly?
"A field day" is an expression which refers to the media exploiting a story and sensationalizing it. The term does not refer to a literal "field".
This is the best choice here. Mayor Flimshaw is worried that the media may discover that Freddie spends his time taking drugs and being lazy, and this would damage the public opinion of the mayor. He says: "they'd have a field day", which is an idiom meaning that there would be a great deal of excitement and attention from the media focused on the Mayor and his son.
Nothing is said to make us believe that the mayor's son is a homosexual.
It is true that the mayor would like to prevent the press from discovering his son's "lifestyle", but this does not imply that the paparazzi is disturbing the mayor's family.
