问题     I had just gone to bed after a very hard day when the phone rang. It was an eccentric(怪僻的 )farmer. I had never met him before although I had often heard people talk about him. He sounded quite nervous and he had been talking for a minute or so before I understood anything. Even then all I could make out was that someone called Milly had had a very bed accident. I hadn’t the slightest idea who she was but I obviously had to go.
    It had been snowing heavily that day and didn’t know the way. I had been driving for at least an hour when I finally found his place. He was standing there, waiting for me. It seemed Milly had died. "She meant more to me than anyone . . . even my own wife!" he said. I could see that he had been crying. I though something terrible had taken place, a possible scandal(丑闻). I was even more shocked when he told me he had put her in the barn(厩). "I wouldn’t leave her out in the cold!" he said.
    Milly had clearly been a secret lover of his. I was about to tell him he could not expect me to cover anything up when he opened the barn door. He lifted his candle and I saw a dark figure on the ground. "She was such a good cow! I wouldn’t let anyone but a doctor touch her!" he said, and burst into tears again.
What do we know about Milly from the story?( )
选项 A、She had met with an accident.
B、She had caused a scandal.
C、She was seriously ill.
D、She was hidden somewhere.
答案A
解析 本题考查推理能力。纵观全文，B选项证明为错；C选项因为牛已死所以不妥；D选项不确定，唯一确定的事实是A选项：牛遭遇事故。
