问题    I’d been living with my wife for eight years and one night. Morn says, "I guess you guys are never going to get married. I mean, you’ve been through jail together, you’re living together, but…, oh, forget it."
   "Oh, well," I said," put it like that and I’ll marry your daughter tomorrow."
   Actually, I don’t know what we were waiting for, except that for a guy it’s never the right time to get married. I’ m also suspicious of any two people who don’t struggle with that decision. Part of my problem was that I was still lusting in my heart after other ladies. But somehow I knew that I wasn’t going to find another woman remotely as great as my soon-to-be wife. It’s a good thing my mother-in-law finally spoke up.
   I finally gathered my courage one day when we were having a picnic, and popped the question. I also gave my wife a big tourist pamphlet about Switzerland. I wasn’t taking any chances.
   She said no.
   It killed me. I felt sick to my stomach. I lost my appetite. Our dog just stared at me, thinking, "If you’re not going to eat your lunch, I will." Finally, I said, "But the Switzerland trip is yours if you say yes."
   "Switzerland , "she said, "is filled with precise, humorless people."
   "Maybe I should have suggested Paris?"
   For a minute it seemed as if my change in travel plans would rate a solid "maybe". But she said no again. When we woke up the next morning, she told me that she’d slept on my proposal. "I guess I was a little rude to you last night," she explained. Meanwhile, I’m figuring I’m off the hook for this marriage thing for at least another eight years. I could afford to be generous.
   "I asked, you said no. It’s okay," I said. I might have looked a little too relieved because later that day she gave me a little box. Inside was a gold watch. On the back was inscribed. "Yes. I’ve reconsidered."
   I liked the watch, so I did the right thing.
The last sentence "I did the right thing" implied he ______.
选项 A、traveled with his wife
B、had a successful marriage
C、liked the watch very much
D、waited for another eight years
答案B
解析  从上段最后一句话“Yes，I’ve reconsidered．”中我们可以推理出，作者的妻子答应了他的求婚，所以这里的it 应该是指他们的婚姻。且A项文中没有涉及，C项仅从字面意思来看显然不对，D项与文意相悖，因为她已经答应求婚。故选B。
