I worked for a short time as a cashier(出纳员) at a restaurant a few months ago. I also helped to clean up the tables when it was very busy. One night, just before Christmas, I found a large black wallet on the floor near one of the tables. I guessed I should check it to find out who was the owner, but I was very busy at the time. And I imagined that if there was something valuable(有价值的) in the wallet, the owner would be back. Sure enough, an hour later a man came up to the counter and asked if anyone had found a wallet. I asked him to describe the lost wallet, and after he described it exactly, I gave him the wallet. He expressed his thanks when I handed it to him. He asked me if I had opened it, and when I told him “no”. At once he opened it and showed that it had nearly $ 800 in cash(现金). He took out a twenty-dollar bill and handed it to me and I was amazed at this. “A reward(酬劳) for your honesty,” he said and then turned and walked away.
Thinking about it later, I began wondering whether I would have been honest if I had known what was in the wallet! I thought that if I had no way to find the owner and no one returned to get it, I might keep it. But it also came into my mind that I actually saved someone’s Christmas plans by finding and returning the wallet. The good feeling it gave me was worth more than anything could buy.
1.Which of the following is true?
|
A．The owner of the wallet found a twenty-dollar bill gone. |
|
B．The writer wasn’t surprised when the man gave her a reward. |
|
C．Nothing in the wallet was missing. |
|
D．The man was very, very excited when he got his wallet back. |
2.The writer returned the wallet to the owner because _______.
|
A．she thought Christmas was coming |
|
B．the owner came back too soon |
|
C．she didn’t know there was so much money in it |
|
D．as an honest person, she didn’t care much about money |
3.Which of the following is NOT true?
|
A．The writer accepted a reward of $ 20. |
|
B．The writer regretted (后悔) that she had returned the wallet. |
|
C．The writer didn’t return the wallet until the owner came back. |
|
D．The writer fell very happy after she returned the wallet. |
1.C
2.B
3.B
【解析】
1.选C。由于作者并未打开钱包，更没有从中取出什么，所以说Nothing in the wallet was missing。
2.选B。根据文章最后一段中的Thinking about it later, I began wondering whether I would have been honest if I had known what was in the wallet! I thought that if I had no way to find the owner and no one returned to get it, I might keep it可排除选项C和D。比较选项A和B，再结合文章大意，选B为佳(from www.zkenglish.com)
3.选B。此题可用排除法来做：根据第1段最后两句He took out a twenty-dollar bill and handed it to me and I was amazed at this. “A reward for your honesty,” he said and then turned and walked away可知选项A与文章内容相符；选项B的意思是“作者直到失主返回来才将钱包还给他”，这显然与文章内容相符；根据第2段最后一句话The good feeling it gave me was worth more than anything could buy可知，选项D也与文章内容相符。
