In the local newspaper of my community recently there was a story about a man named Virgle Spears. He lived in a small town about 40 miles from my home. He had served 5 years in a New York prison for robbing a restaurant.[22]When he returned to his family, Mr. Spears couldn’t find a job. Everyone knew he had been in prison and nobody trusted him. Finally in desperation, he calmly walked into a local barber shop where he was well-known, pulled out a gun and took all the money the barber had. Up to this point it had been a fairly routine crime. But then something unusual happened.[24]Mr. Spears didn’t try to get away. He got into his car, drove slowly out of his town and waited for the police. When they called him, he made only one request. He turned to arresting policemen and said, "Would you please ask the court to put my family on welfare just as soon as possible?"
22. What made it difficult for Virgle Spears to find a job?
23. Why did Virgle Spears rob the local barber shop?
24. What did Mr. Spears do after he robbed the barber shop?
25. What can we infer from the passage?
选项
A、Mr. Spears enjoyed living in prison.
B、Mr. Spears was known as a greedy man in his community.
C、The police in New York were not very efficient.
D、The only way for Mr. Spears to support his family was by going to prison again.
答案
D
解析
短文提到,出狱后Mr.Spears找不到工作,无奈之下他抢劫了一家理发店,然后等警察来抓他,并请求警察让法院尽快把他的家庭纳入福利体制(askthe court to put my family on welfare),由此可矢口Mr.Spears唯一能够供养家庭的方法就是重回监狱,故答案为D)。
