A.ANewYeardinner.

B.CharlesKrueger'sdisappearance.

C.Abirthdaygreeting.

D.JohnKrueger*smemory.

答案与解析：B理解具体信息。根据第一段中的“Instead,themessage...MIA(missinginaction)”可知，

这条消息说他不会回家了：他的B-29失踪了，后来他被宣布为战时失踪人员；据此可知，第一段的电报是

关于CharlesKrueger失踪的事。

6.WhydidpeoplecriticizethepreviousMIAsearchprocess?

C.Becausetheworkwasstoppedbythemilitary.

D.Because141MIAs*remainswerefoundin2021.

踪人员的工作落在了DPAA身上,该机构成立于2015年，此前批评人士指责之前的失踪人员搜寻过程缓慢，

缺乏科学技术创新。据此可知，人们批评之前的失踪人员搜寻过程是因为其需要的时间长，而且缺乏创造

性。

technology”可知，几十年后，军方仍在努力找回像CharlesKrueger这样的士兵的遗骸，批评人士指责之前

的失踪人员搜寻过程缓慢，缺乏科学技术创新。根据第三段中“Toacceleratethe...groupsoutsidethegovernment^^

可知，为了加速这项工作，国会授权DPAA与政府以外的科学家和团体建立公私合作伙伴关系。据此可知，

文章主要介绍了搜寻战斗中失踪人员的情况及为此所做的努力。故本文的最佳标题为A项“对战斗中失踪

人员的长期搜寻”。
