[22]An elderly woman yesterday made a legal claim against a department store because it had wrongly accused her of stealing a Christmas card. Mrs. Doss White, 72 years old, is claiming $3,000 damages from the store for wrongful arrest and false imprisonment. Mrs. White visited the store while doing Christmas shopping, but did not buy anything. She was followed through the town by a store manager. He had been told that a customer saw her take a card and put it in her shopping bag. He stopped her at a bookstore as she was reading a book. Mrs. White said, "This man, a total stranger, suddenly grasped my bag and asked if he could look in it."[24]She was taken back to the store and shut in a small room in full view of shoppers for 20 minutes until the police arrived. At the police station she was body-searched and nothing was found. Her lawyer said that the department store sent an insincere apology and they insisted that she may have been stealing. The hearing continues today.
22. What does the story tell us about the old woman?
23. What was said to have been stolen?
24. What happened to Mrs. White after she was taken back to the store?
25. What was now the attitude of the department store in this legal case?
选项
A、She was questioned by the police.
B、She was shut in a small room for 20 minutes.
C、She was insulted by the shoppers around her.
D、She was body-searched by the store manager.
答案
B
解析
题目询问Mrs.White被带回商场之后,发生了什么事。关键是要听到“她(Mrs.White)被带回商店,并在众目睽睽之下被关在一个小房间达20分钟之久,直到警方到来。”故答案为B。选项A的内容文中未提及;其他购物者只是都看到了她,并没有侮辱她,故C不正确;她被带到警察局之后才被搜身,故D不正确。
