问题 When Itold my family that I was thinking of taking a cooking job,the roars oflaughter were rather discouraging.No one believed that I could cook at all asI had never had a chance to practice at home.Our cook had ruled in the kitchenfor thirty years and had an annoying tendency to regard the saucepans,stoveand all the kitchen fittings as her own property.I oncecrept down there when I thought she was asleep in her room to try out anomelette.Noiselessly I removed a frying pan from its hook and the eggs fromtheir cupboard.It was the pop of the gas that woke her,I think,for I wasjust breaking the first egg when a pair of slippered feet moved round the doorand a shriek of horror caused me to break the egg on the floor.Thisdisaster,together with the fact that I was using her very special beloved andcared-for frying pan,upset her so much that she locked herself in thestoreroom with all the food and we had to make our Sunday dinner of bananas.If thefamily weren't going to be helpful,I would look for a job all by myself andnot tell them about it till I'd got one.I had seen an agency in a local paper,so as soon as there was no one about to say“where are you going?”I rushed outof the house in search of it.I sat onthe edge of a chair and could see my nose shining out of the corner of my eye.I thought perhaps it was a good thing;it might look more earnest.The woman atthe desk examined me through her glasses.Having asked me a few questions,shetold me that it would be difficult to get a job without experience.“But,”shesaid,“I've got someone who needs a cook badly.”She wrote down a number,and myspirits went up as I took the slip of paper she held out to me,saying,“Ring upthis lady.She wants a cook.You would have to start tomorrow by cooking dinnerfor ten people.Could you manage that?”“Oh,yes,”said I never having cooked for morethan four in my life.Thefamily had to have bananas for dinner that Sunday because_______.查看材料A.theauthor broke the cook's special beloved frying panB.thecook was on strike and was with all the foodC.thecook was locked in the storeroomD.noone in the family know how to cook

选项 A.theauthor broke the cook's special beloved frying pan
B.thecook was on strike and was with all the food
C.thecook was locked in the storeroom
D.noone in the family know how to cook

答案 B

解析细节题。根据第二段中的“This disaster,together with the fact that I was using her veryspecial beloved and cared-for frying pan，upset her SOmuch that she locked herself in the storeroom with all the food and we had tomake our Sunday dinner of bananas”可知，家里的厨师因为“我”用了她心爱的厨具而把她自己和所有的食物反锁在储藏室里，所以“我们”不得不以香蕉作为周日的晚餐，B项“厨师带着所有食物罢工了”符合题意。故本题选B。
