Ⅴ.阅读理解
Shotgun?themed weddings continue to boom(繁荣) in the US－despite the tragic shooting at Sandy Hook elementary school that saw a gunman pick off 26 people.
The Las Vegas ceremonies are still a hit and organizers of The Gun Store insist no weddings have been cancelled after the incident and bookings are still flooding in.
Couples travel from all over the world，including the UK，to tie the knot(结) at the Gun Store in full bridal wear before firing semi?automatics as well as pistols，UZIs and AK47s.
The ￡300 package includes an appointed minister，access to a private VIP shooting range and five shots on a shotgun for the bride and the groom.Another deal，called the Mr.& Mrs.Smith & Wesson，offers even more guns，bullets and targets.
Emily Miller，an appointed minister at the Gun Store，said，“We're here because people love each other and guns.Guns don't have to be about anger and hate.This is a fun and energetic way to get out their affection and emotions.”
Since February last year，ten Shotgun Weddings have been conducted each month.
One couple travelled from their home in Ottawa，Canada，where gun laws are much stricter than Nevada.
The chapel room (礼拜堂)，normally used for cleaning guns，had been scattered with red rose petals.As the couple said their vows，the loud sound of an attacked weapon being fired could be heard from the nearby shooting range.They later moved to the special marble?floored VIP shooting range to seal(盖印) their vows by blowing away their Nazi zombie targets.
Aaron Dickson，also an appointed minister at the Gun Store，said，“One thing I like to do is to have you guys share a lane (靶道) together so you can enjoy watching each other shoot.To start off the marriage appropriately you guys get to start sharing right away－that's the whole idea.”
1．Why do people choose this wedding form?
A．Because they want to memorize the tragedy at an elementary school.
B．Because they love guns and it can give them a chance to show their love by sharing.
C．Because guns can prove their love more obviously.
D．Because this wedding form is cheaper.
2．From what Emily Miller said we can learn that ________.
A．guns are not the symbol of violence and death
B．guns can keep the society peaceful
C．guns are dangerous for a normal wedding
D．guns can make one more energetic
3．One couple mentioned in the passage is from ________.
