Nicael Holt is a philosophy student from the southern coastal city of Wol-longong in Australia. The 24-year old young man who sold his life, including baggage from a painful break-up, on eBay becomes famous recently. Holt sold his name, phone number and all his possessions, including clothes, CDs, a surfboard, a laptop, childhood photos, friends, and a "nice lamp" given to him by an ex girlfriend, on the Internet auction site. The successful applicant bid 7,500 dollars last week to become Holt. Holt, who has set up a website to explain his actions and ask for donations to charity, said he was unable to explain why he sold his life. In his sales pitch, Holt said the winner would be entitled to a four-week training course in how to be him — including lessons on how to surf, climb, skateboard, and do handstands — as well as two months of on-call support afterward. He also promised to introduce the winner to all his friends and potential lovers, including eight people he had been flirting with. "Lifestyle is very social. It includes a lot of going out." he noted on his eBay advert. "Friends will treat you exactly as they have treated me. This includes friends who take me surfing, running, climbing and cook for me. All of these features will be transferred over to the winning applicant." His legal identity, passport, qualifications and future inheritance were not for sale.
Questions 16 to 18 are based on the passage you have just heard.
16. What did the young man do in the passage?
17. What’s the young man’s explanation for his action?
18. What can the successful applicant get?
选项
A、Driving license.
B、Training course.
C、Cooking skills.
D、Australian passport.
答案
B
解析
细节题。“Holt said the winner would be entitled to afour-week training course in how to be him…”表明买家可获得为期四周的如何成为Holt的训练课程,其中的课程包括冲浪、爬山、玩滑板和双手倒立,而且还可获得两个月的随叫随到“售后服务”。但短文最后提到他的合法身份、护照、资格证及未来的财产继承权不在出售之列。故答案选B。
