PASSAGE ONE [br] What does "the penury of her table" in Para. 7 mean?
选项
答案
The meager meals served in Mrs.Manson Mingott’s family.
解析
根据题干定位至第七段第三句。定位句的前两句提到早年困境的记忆令曼森-明戈特太太格外节俭,虽然她在购买衣服或者添置家具时总是注意要最好的,但却下不了决心为餐桌上的瞬间享乐而花费过多,因此,出于完全不同的原因,她的饭菜和阿切尔太太家的一样差,她的酒也不能使她的伙食有所改善。这两句说明曼森-明戈特太太家的伙食非常差。定位句则表明她的亲戚们认为,她餐桌上的“penury”损害了明戈特家的名誉——这一向是与讲究吃喝的生活连在一起的。“penury”有“吝啬”之意,因此,“the penury of her table”是指上文表明的曼森-明戈特太太家供应的粗茶淡饭。故答案为“The meager meals served in Mrs.Manson Mingott’s family.”。
