My husband and children think they are very lucky that they are living and that it’s Christmas again. They can’t see that we live on a dirty street in a dirty house among people who aren’t very good. But Johnny and children can’t see this. What a pity it is that our neighbors have to make happiness out of all this dirt. I decide that my children must get out of this. The money that we’ve saved isn’t nearly enough.
The McGaritys have money but they are so proud. They look down upon the poor. The McGarity girl just yesterday stood out there in the street eating from a bag of candy while a ring of hungry children watched her. I saw those children looking at her and crying in their hearts; and when she couldn’t eat any more she threw the rest down the sewer. Why, is it only because they have money? There is more to happiness than money in the world, isn’t there?
Miss Jackson who teaches at the Settlement House isn’t rich, but she knows things. She understands people. Her eyes look straight into yours when she talks with you. She can read your mind. I’d like to see the children be like Miss Jackson when they grow up.
Questions 30 to 32 are based on the passage you have just heard.
30. What can we learn about the speaker from the passage?
31. What do you think of McGarity girl?
32. What does the speaker try to tell us?
选项
A、Money is the key to everything.
B、There is something more important than money.
C、The more money you have, the less happy you’ll be.
D、When talking to people we should look into their eyes.
答案
B
解析
短文最后举了一个正面的例子,即当老师的Jackson虽然没有钱,但她善解人意,待人友善,与之前说的McGarity家冷酷的女儿形成鲜明对比,说话者通过这两个例子告诉人们生活中除了金钱还有很多其他重要的东西,故答案为[B]。
