正确答案: C
解析:
从录音中提到的“Westerners get their share of plastic surgery, too”,可见在说话者看来整容手术在西方国家也很流行。
【录音原文】
I’ve read that the first breast implants were performed in Japan after World War II when barrels of industrial silicon were stolen from Japanese docks. This same silicon ended up in hundreds of Japanese prostitutes working the newly arrived invading forces. Of course, Westerners get their share of plastic surgery, too, but I think they have less of a cultural identity problem.
