Sam had worked 30 years for the same company and now he had to retire. 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、Sam’s wife did not think that the company was fair to Sam.
B、Sam’s wife was satisfied with the gold watch.
C、Sam did not like the gold watch.
D、The company had some financial problems.
答案
A
解析
题目询问根据故事内容我们可以推断出什么。关键是要听到Sam的妻子说“你就是为这块便宜的镀金手表工作了30年吗?”和“你这块手表也不工作了(不走了)。”可以看出她对Sam公司的做法很不满,觉得公司对Sam不公平,故答案为A。B项与Sam妻子的实际感觉恰好相反,选项C、D的内容文中均未提及。
