Choose the best answer（根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，選擇最恰當(dāng)?shù)拇鸢?:

When the plane arrived on Prince Edward Island in Canada, the snow was thick on the ground as they’d had about 100cm in 24 hours. That amount of snow was unusual for the island but I didn’t know that so I wasn’t worried. It didn’t look much thicker than snow I’d seen in Scotland. I was going to visit my friend, Chris, and he’d warned me it would be very cold and snowy. In fact I was feeling too warm as I had too many clothes on.

Chris met me in his car and we were quite near his house, which was only five kilometers from the airport, when we got stuck in the snow. So we phoned the road rescue services and a man and a truck arrived. He said we were the fifth car he’d pulled out of the snow that evening. He started the engine and he’d almost pulled us out ... Only to find that the truck had brought a whole pile of snow down from the sides of the road onto both vehicles and the truck was stuck too. He phoned to get an even larger truck to come and rescue us all. In the end it did!

Chris turned off the engine and we sat in the car to wait for the second truck to pull us out. I suggested he might keep the engine running so we could stay warm. He pointed out that the gas gauge was showing nearly empty and he was worried that we still had to get to his house. We finally arrived at his house at 4.30 in the morning -five hours after leaving the airport.
