(1) There were only two Americans stopping at the hotel. They did not know any of the people they passed on the stairs on their way to and from their room. Their room was on the second floor facing the sea. It also faced the public garden and the war monument. There were big palms and green benches in the public garden. In the good weather there was always an artist with his easel. Artists liked the way the palms grew and the bright colors of the hotels facing the gardens and the sea. Italians came from a long way off to look up at the war monument. It was made of bronze and glistened in the rain. It was raining. The rain dripped from the palm trees. The sea broke in a long line in the rain and slipped back down the beach to come up and break again in a long line in the rain. Across the square in the doorway of the cafe a waiter stood looking out of the empty square.
(2) The American wife stood at the window looking out. Outside right under their window a cat was crouched under one of the dripping green tables. The cat was trying to make herself so compact that she would not be dripped on.
(3) "I’m going down and get that kitty," the American wife said. "I’ll do it," her husband offered from the bed. "No, I’ll get it. The poor kitty out trying to keep dry under a table. "
(4) The husband went on reading, lying propped up with the two pillows at the foot of the bed. "Don’t get wet," he said.
(5) The wife went downstairs and the hotel owner stood up and bowed to her as she passed the office. He was an old man and very tall.
(6) "II piove," the wife said. She liked the hotel-keeper.
(7) "Si, si, Signora, brutto tempo. It is very bad weather. "
(8) He stood behind his desk in the far end of the dim room. The wife liked him. She liked the deadly serious way he received any complaints. She liked his dignity. She liked the way he wanted to serve her. She liked the way he felt about being a hotel-keeper. She liked his old, heavy face and big hands.
(9) Liking him she opened the door and looked out. It was raining harder. The cat would be around to the right. Perhaps she could go along under the eaves. As she stood in the doorway, an umbrella opened behind her.
It was the maid who looked after their room. "You must not get wet," she smiled, speaking Italian. Of course, the hotel-keeper had sent her.
(10) With the maid holding the umbrella over her, she walked along the gravel path until she was under their window. The table was there, washed bright green in the rain, but the cat was gone. She was suddenly disappointed. The maid looked up at her. "Ha perduto qualque cosa, Signora?"
(11) "There was a cat," said the American girl.
(12) "A cat?" the maid laughed. "A cat in the rain?"
(13) "Yes," she said, "under the table. " Then, "Oh, I wanted it so much. I wanted a kitty. "
(14) When she talked English the maid’s face tightened. "Come, Signora," she said. "We must get back inside. You will be wet. "
(15) They went back along the gravel path and passed in the door. The maid stayed outside to close the umbrella. As the American girl passed the office, the padrone bowed from his desk. Something felt very small and tight inside the girl. The padrone made her feel very small and at the same time really important. She had a momentary feeling of being of supreme importance. She went on up the stairs. She opened the door of the room. George was on the bed, reading.
(16) "Did you get the cat?" he asked, putting the book down.
(17) "It was gone. "
(18) " Wonder where it went to," he said, resting his eyes from reading.
(19) She sat down on the bed. "I wanted it so much," she said. "I don’t know why I wanted it so much. I wanted that poor kitty. It isn’t any fun to be a poor kitty out in the rain. "
(20) George was reading again. She went over and sat in front of the mirror of the dressing table looking at herself with the hand glass. She studied her profile, first one side and then the other. Then she studied the back of her head and her neck. "Don’t you think it would be a good idea if I let my hair grow out?" she asked, looking at her profile again.
(21) George looked up and saw the back of her neck, clipped close like a boy’s. "I like it the way it is. "
(22) "I get so tired of it," she said. "I get so tired of looking like a boy. " George shifted his position in the bed. He hadn’t looked away from her since she started to speak. "You look pretty darn nice," he said.
(23) She laid the mirror down on the dresser and went over to the window and looked out. It was getting dark. " I want to pull my hair back tight and smooth and make a big knot at the back that I can feel," she said. "I want to have a kitty to sit on my lap and purr when I stroke her. "
(24) "Yeah?" George said from the bed.
(25) "And I want to eat at a table with my own silver and I want candles. And I want it to be spring and I want to brush my hair out in front of a mirror and I want a kitty and I want some new clothes. "
(26) "Oh, shut up and get something to read," George said. He was reading again.
(27) His wife was looking out of the window. It was quite dark now and still raining in the palm trees. "Anyway, I want a cat," she said, "I want a cat. I want a cat now. If I can’t have long hair or any fun, I can have a cat. "
(28) George was not listening. He was reading his book. His wife looked out of the window where the light had come on in the square.
(29) Someone knocked at the door.
(30) "Avanti," George said. He looked up from his book.
(31) In the doorway stood the maid. She held a big tortoise-shell cat pressed tight against her and swung down against her body. " Excuse me," she said, " the padrone asked me to bring this for the Signora. "
It can be inferred from the passage that the woman liked the hotel-keeper because______.
选项
A、he treated everything seriously
B、he had a charming appearance
C、he felt proud of being a hotel-keeper
D、he made her feel being respected
答案
D
解析
推断题。通读全文可知,文章在第五至第九段,以及第十五段描写了女主角对旅馆老板的看法。第五段至第九段提到,她喜欢他举止庄重,她喜欢他愿意为她效劳的态度。由此可以看出,女主角对旅馆老板的第一印象很好,因为他对她表现出很好的服务态度。第十五段中点出,旅馆老板对她的态度使她感到自己既柔弱又非常重要,在一瞬间感觉自己好像是最重要的人物了。由此可见,女主角之所以喜欢这个老板是因为他对她彬彬有礼的态度让她感到被重视、被尊重,因此[D]为答案。第八段第三句提到,她喜欢旅馆老板任劳任怨、极其认真的模样,但不能由此推出旅馆老板对事事都认真,因此排除[A];第八段提到,她喜欢他那觉得自己是个旅馆老板的态度。她喜欢旅馆老板那张苍老而迟钝的脸和那一双大手。但结合前文所述可知,女主角主要喜欢的是旅馆老板的风度和对她的态度,[B]、[C]选项的理由流于表面,故均排除。
