正确答案 · Correct Answer

B

解析 · Solution

Solution 1

First, the tortoise walks at a constant rate, ruling out (D). Second, when the hare is resting, the distance will stay the same, ruling out (E) and (C). Third, the tortoise wins the race, meaning that the non-constant one should go off the graph last, ruling out (A). The answer is the only one left.
