Sam had worked 30 years for the same company and now he had to retire.[16]As a sign of gratitude, the company held a dinner in his honor. "Sam," announced his boss, "It is my great honor to present this gift to you on behalf of the company." Sam walked down to the front of the table and accepted the gift with pride. It was a gold watch and on it was written "To faithful Sam for 30 years of Service." Sam wept, "I am at a loss for words." At home, Sam’s wife looked at the gold watch critically. "For this you worked 30 years? A cheap gold-plated watch?" "It’s the thought, dear," answered Sam. "The important thing is that I am not working any more." His wife held the gold watch to her ear and said: "Neither is your watch."
16. What did the company do to honor Sam?
17. How did Sam feel when he saw what was written on the watch?
18. What can we infer from the story?
选项
A、He was embarrassed.
B、He felt greatly encouraged.
C、He felt sad.
D、He was deeply touched.
答案
D
解析
题目询问当Sam看到手表上面的字时,心里是什么感觉。关键是要听到“Sam流着泪说:‘我不知道说什么才好’。”说明他深受感动,即D。embarrassed“尴尬的,难堪的”;encouraged“被鼓励的”;sad“悲哀的”,均与原文不符。
