Whatisthenewsreportmainlyabout?
[解析]国外时事新闻稿的特点是先说主要发生的事情，然后再详述细节，这种新闻稿写法被称为“倒三角”型。
新闻开头提到，肯尼亚警方称，在内罗毕中部的一个公交车站里发生的一起爆炸事故造成1死26伤。
由此可知，这则新闻主要叙述内罗毕发生的一起爆炸案，答案为B，同时排除D。
本题答案也可以由新闻后面的内容得到印证。
新闻中并未明确指出这起爆炸是谁制造的，故排除A；造成70多人丧生的乌干达首都爆炸事件是去年七月发生的，并不是本则新闻的主要内容，故排除C。
A.OnChristmasEve.
B.Justbeforemidnight.
C.Duringasecuritycheck. √
D.Inthesmallhoursofthemorning.
