Not many years ago, a wealthy and rather strange old man named Johnson lived alone in a village in the south of England. He had made a lot of money in trading with foreign countries. When he was seventy-five, he gave some money to the village school to buy land and equipment for a children’s playground.
As a result of his kindness, many people came to visit him. Among them was a newspaper man. During their talk, Johnson remarked that he was seventy-five and expected to live to be a hundred. The newspaperman asked him how he managed to be healthy at seventy-five. Johnson had a sense of humor. He liked whisky and drank some each day. "I have an injection in my neck each eyeing," he told the newspaperman, thinking of his evening glass of whiskey.
The newspaperman did not understand what Johnson meant. In his newspaper he reported that Johnson was seventy-five and had a daily injection in his neck. Within a week Johnson received thousands of letters from all over Britain, asking him for the secret of his daily injection.
选项
A、They wanted to find out }tow to become wealthy.
B、They wanted to find out how to live longer.
C、They wanted to know what alcohol he drank.
D、They wanted to know where to be given an injection.
答案
B
解析
要知道人们为啥要写信给Johson,就要知道报社记者在报上说了什么。从以上的关键词句,可知,记者想打听Johnson 如何在75岁保持健康,而 Johnson 的回答很幽默——"Daily injection",故而人们就很好奇了。本题B正确。
