问题     One day Jack’s wife was cleaning out a closet (壁橱). Look at all these umbrellas, she said to Jack. There are eight and they are all broken.
    I’ll take them to the umbrella shop and have them mended, Jack said. Jack took the eight umbrellas to the shop and left them there. "They’ll be ready tomor-row, the shopkeeper said.
    That evening Jack went home from the office by bus as usual. He sat next to an old woman, she had an umbrella on the floor near her.
    When the bus reached his stop, he picked up her umbrella and stood up. Hey! the woman said. That’s my umbrella!
    I’m sorry, Jack said, and at the same time he gave the umbrella to her. I wasn’t thinking. Please excuse me.
    The next day he got back the umbrellas from the umbrella shop and got on the bus. As he sat down, a voice behind him said, ’ You certainly have a successful day! He turned around and saw the woman whose umbrella had almost been taken by him the day before.
Which of the following is TRUE?(  )

选项 A、Jack had an umbrella shop.
B、The woman’s umbrella was Jack’s.
C、The woman thought Jack was a thief.
D、Jack bought eight umbrellas from the shop again.

答案C

解析 A项句意为Jack有家雨伞店,显然不对。B项句意为那个老太太的雨伞是.Jack的,也不对,那把伞是老太太的,是Jack拿错了。C项句意为老太太以为Jack是个小偷,根据老太太说“You certainly have a successful day!”得知,老太太以为他拿的雨伞都是今天顺手牵羊牵来的,所以这个选项是对的。D项句意为Jack又从雨伞店买了八把伞,但根据文意可知那些伞是他从家里拿去修的而不是买的。所以答案选C。
