Sam had worked 30 years for the same company and now he had to retire.[19]As a sign of gratitude, the company held a dinner in his honour. "Sam," announced his boss, "it is my great honour 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."[20]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."
19. What did the company do to honour Sam?
20. How did Sam feel when he saw what was written on the watch?
21. 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 推断题。短文提到，回家以后Sam的妻子挑剔地看着那块金表，并问Sam“就为了这块便宜的镀金手表，你为公司工作30年?”，可见Sam的妻子认为Sam的公司对Sam不公平，故答案为A)。
