How much was the man’s estate worth?
Wilton K. Smith, the local business entrepreneur who was well-known to town residents for his many eccentricities, died at his home last night. He was ninety-three years old. Mr. Smith is survived by his son, Wilton K. Smith Jr., and two grandchildren. Don’t expect his survivors to take over his business, however. Mr. Smith was estranged from his son and grandchildren for many years, and he left his entire estate to his dog, a spaniel named Charles. Man’s best friend inherited over two million dollars. Will he continue his deceased owner’s business, or invest it all in dog food? That remains to be seen. Funeral services for Mr. Smith will be held next Sunday at one o’clock at Brown’s Funeral Home on Third Street. The dog is expected to attend.
选项
A、Nothing.
B、Under two thousand dollars.
C、A million dollars.
D、Over two million dollars.
答案
D
解析
The man’s estate was worth over two million dollars. Choice (A) is contradicted by two million dollars. Choice (B) confuses the opposites under and over. Choice (C) confuses a million and two million.
