Life on a submarine may, to many people,
sound fascinating. However, it is, in fact,
horribly boring. Except for the commanding
officers, a day aboard a submarine consists
of six hours on duty, six hours off, day after
day, for months. This being the case, every
effort is made to ensure that the lives of the
men are as pleasant as possible. The meals
are exceptionally good, and there is a daily
film, shown at a specific time, on television
around the submarine. In return, the crew
is always expected to perform perfectly all
the time. A mistake is quite unforgivable. In
fact, a favourite saying is “There’s room for
everything on a submarine except for a
mistake”.

contrary to what a lot of people expect, ----.
A) life on a submarine is extremely rewarding
for the crew
B) submarines have every imaginable facility
for entertaining the crew

a submarine
D) there is comparatively little work to be
done on a submarine
