问题补充:

In 1971 a young man who grew up very poor was traveling across the country, trying to make a new start for himself. Along the way he had completely run out of money and was forced to spend the night in his car. This continued until one morning, after a week of sleeping in his car, he walked nervously into a restaurant and ordered a big breakfast.

After eating his first good meal in weeks, he found himself lying to the waiter, telling him he had lost his wallet. The waiter, who was also the owner, walked behind the chair where the young man had been sitting. He bent down, and came up with a $20 bill that looked as if it had fallen on the floor and said, “Son, you must have dropped this,” the owner said. The young man couldn’t believe his luck! He quickly paid for the breakfast, left a tip, bought gas with the change, and headed West.

On the way out of town, he began to understand what that fellow did. Maybe nobody dropped the money at all. “Maybe that fellow just knew I was in trouble and he helped me in a way that didn’t embarrass(使困窘) me. So I just made a promise to help other people if I can.”

Later, he worked very hard and became a rich man. Now he lives near Kansas City. Each year he gives away thousands of dollars. He is known as the “Secret Santa” because at Christmas time each year, he personally hands money out to those on the street and at restaurants. Last year, he gave more than $50,000 away in Kansas City.

答案:

(答案→)C

解析:文章讲述的是一个落魄的年轻人在吃饭早餐后谎称钱包丢了,然后受到了店主委婉的帮助,最后在获得大量财富后,开始大量帮助别人。被称为神秘的圣诞老人。

【小题1】根据上文He bent down, and came up with a $20 bill that looked as if it had fallen on the floor and said可知,店主捡起一张20元钱,认为是这个年轻人丢的(这张钱)

【小题2】推理判断题。根据Maybe nobody dropped the money at all. “Maybe that fellow just knew I was in trouble and he helped me in a way that didn’t embarrass(使困窘) me可知,作者意识到店主并没有真正捡到钱,而是故意要帮助这个年轻人,为了避免让他尴尬。

【小题3】主旨大意题。根据最后一段他在KANSAS city的善举可知,年轻人的经历让他做出了现在的善举。
