[22]An elderly woman yesterday made a legal claim against a department store because it had wrongly accused her of [23]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. [25]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、They refused to apologize for having followed her through the town.
B、They regretted having wrongly accused her of stealing.
C、They still suspected that she was a thief.
D、They agreed to pay her $3,000 damages.
答案
C
解析
题目询问在这个案子中,商场目前持什么态度。关键是要听到“老太太的律师说百货商店的道歉并不真诚,而且他们坚持认为她可能偷了贺卡。”故答案为C。
