I guess the answer is D.題目的問(wèn)題是Birmingham 令人surprise的原因，原文中即對(duì)應(yīng)odd一詞。文中"expect"和"yet"兩個(gè)詞可以看出odd的原因，原本認(rèn)為長(zhǎng)期居住在那里的人應(yīng)該懷念過(guò)去的時(shí)光，但是他們卻對(duì)未來(lái)更加樂(lè)觀。

d) future positively最后一句， yet they are optimistic of things getting better.指的是在對(duì)美好的過(guò)去懷念的基礎(chǔ)上，對(duì)為未來(lái)感到樂(lè)觀，認(rèn)為一切會(huì)更好。所以是D,對(duì)未來(lái)感到積極。
