A father with Parkinson's disease was arrested as he watched the Olympic cycling road race because he failed to smile or look as if he was enjoying himself. Mark Worsfold, a martial arts trainer and former soldier, claims that he was thrown to the floor and handcuffed just as cyclists passed by. His worried wife Nicola only found out he was being held after she reported him missing when he did not turn up for their daughter's ninth birthday party. The 54yearold man had his fingerprints, DNA and mugshot taken before being questioned about why he did not appear to be enjoying the event on July 28. Police said Mr. Worsfold, who was held for over five hours, was arrested because of his manner，his state of dress and his being too near to the course. A spokesman added that the arrest was necessary to avoid a breach(破坏) of the peace because he was standing near a group of protesters(抗议者)． But Mr. Worsfold, who was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in 2010, said that one of the symptoms of the disease is muscle rigidity, which can cause his face to become expressionless. “I was sitting minding my own business”， he told a local newspaper. “Before I knew anything the police grabbed me off this sevenfoot wall, threw me to the floor and handcuffed me, so all I saw of the cycle race was between the feet of people from the pavement. It could have been done better. I was arrested for not smiling. I have Parkinson's disease.” Mr. Worsfold has since asked for a letter of not being guilty from police. The officers who made the arrest have apologized to him. 1.Which word can be used to replace the underlined word “mugshot” in the second paragraph? Clothes. B．Photos. C．Measures. D．Tools. 2.Which statement is TRUE according to the passage? A．Worsfold's wife was immediately informed of his being arrested by the police. B．Worsfold was arrested because he was extremely dangerous. C．Worsfold enjoyed the cycle race though he saw it between the feet of people from the pavement. D．Worsfold was arrested because of his clothes as well as his facial expression. 3.What can we infer from the passage? A．The officers must have been punished for Worsfold's arrest. B．Worsfold has an expressionless face and probably looks strong. C．The officers apologized to Worsfold after one day's arrest. D．Worsfold was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease four years ago.
