In the local newspaper of my community recently there was a story about a man named Virgle Spears. He lived in a small town about 40 miles from my home. He had served 5 years in a New York prison for robbing a restaurant.[22]When he returned to his family, Mr. Spears couldn’t find a job. Everyone knew he had been in prison and nobody trusted him. Finally in desperation, he calmly walked into a local barber shop where he was well-known, pulled out a gun and took all the money the barber had. Up to this point it had been a fairly routine crime. But then something unusual happened.[24]Mr. Spears didn’t try to get away. He got into his car, drove slowly out of his town and waited for the police. When they called him, he made only one request. He turned to arresting policemen and said, "Would you please ask the court to put my family on welfare just as soon as possible?"
22. What made it difficult for Virgle Spears to find a job?
23. Why did Virgle Spears rob the local barber shop?
24. What did Mr. Spears do after he robbed the barber shop?
25. What can we infer from the passage?
选项
A、The long distance between his hometown and New York.
B、His unpopular character.
C、The high unemployment rate in New York.
D、His criminal record.
答案
D
解析
细节题。短文中说,Virgle Spears在监狱服刑五年,回家后找不到工作,人人都知道他进过监狱,没有人信任他(Everyone knew he had been inprison and nobody trusted him),可见Virgle Spears找不到工作是因为他有犯罪记录,故答案为D)。
