问题
(32) Leona Bridges, a New York woman who married into millions, left her mansion and her $12 million fortune to her pet, a little white Chihuahua named Duchess. Although Leona has one son, Wilbur, and three grandchildren, they received nothing in her will.
(33)Wilbur was not surprised. He had already hired a lawyer to fight the will. The lawyer said there would be no problem proving that Leona wasn’t "all there" when she signed her will. No one, said the lawyer, in their right mind could be so cruel to their own flesh and blood while being so generous to a dog that had been rescued from an animal shelter. "The dog doesn’t even have papers," said the lawyer.
Leona had not spoken to Wilbur in five years. They used to get along very well. Then Wilbur made an unfortunate joke. He was visiting Leona one afternoon. She had just spent $ 400 at a dog beauty parlor. The employees had washed, shampooed, and blow-dried Duchess, and then tied a big pink ribbon around her neck. Leona mentioned to Wilbur how beautiful Duchess looked. Wilbur said, "Yes, if your idea of beauty is a large rodent with a pink ribbon around its skinny neck. "Leona gave him a dirty look.
(34) Wilbur apologized, saying he was just joking, but Leona told him to leave immediately. How dare her son belittle her "baby"? She didn’t respond to any of his emails or phone calls. Leona told her staff to never use the words "Wilbur" in her presence. (35)Days later, she fired her housekeeper when he said he was going to "polish the silver" —she thought he said he was going to "watch for Wilbur". The housekeeper had worked for Leona for 25 years.
选项
A、Her only child, Wilbur.
B、Her soil and grandchildren.
C、Her pet dog, Duchess.
D、Her grandchildren.
答案
C
解析
文章的开头就提到Leona将自己的别墅和1200万美元的财产都留给了她的宠物,一个叫Duchess的吉娃娃狗。虽然她有一个叫Wilbur的儿子和三个孙子,但他们并没有出现在她的遗嘱上。故本题答案为C。
