问题     Kathy and Polly were friends but they liked playing tricks (花招，戏弄) on each other. One day Kathy met Polly in the street. She said, "Hi, Polly. It’s good to see you."
    "How can you see me when I’m not here?" Polly asked.
    "What do you mean, you’re not here?" Kathy asked. "Of course you’re here."
    "No, I’m not," Polly said, "and I’ll bet (打赌) you ten dollars that I can prove (证明) I’m not here."
    "OK," said Kathy. "Ten dollars. Now prove you’re not here."
    "Am I in Hong Kong (香港)?" Polly asked.
    "No," said Kathy.
    "Am I in Paris (巴黎)?"
    "No," said Kathy.
    "If I’m not in Hong Kong and I’m not in Paris," Polly said, "then I must be somewhere else. Right?"
    "Right," said Kathy. "You must be somewhere else."
    "If I’m somewhere else I can’t be here. Ten dollars, please."
    "That’s very clever, Polly,  but I can’t give you the money."
    "Why not?"
    "How can I give you ten dollars if you’re not here?" [br] What did Polly say she could do?
选项 A、Prove she wasn’t there.
B、Give Kathy ten dollars.
C、Go to Hong Kong or Paris.
答案 A
解析 根据短文，Polly说要用十美金打赌，因为她可证明她不在“这儿”。所以A为答案。
