The men work all week in the factory, and at the end of the week they get their pay. Naturally enough, they open the envelopes and they all count the money. One man is standing in the comer. He’s counting his money. Suddenly he realizes that it is wrong. He counts the money again. No doubt about it--there is a mistake. There is too much. Five pounds too much. He puts his money carefully in his pocket and says nothing to the others. A week goes by. It’s payday again. The men ate counting their pay. The same man is standing in the comer. Suddenly he starts shouting. This time there isn’t enough money in his envelope. It’s five pounds short. He goes immediately to see the boss. He is very angry.
"Look," he says, "there isn’t enough money in my pay envelope." ’What’s right," says the boss. "But didn’t you notice last week? There was a mistake. There was too much. Fiver pounds too much." "Yes, that’s right," says the man (he is very angry). There was a mistake last week. For one mistake, I can shut my eye--but for two mistakes, no, I can’t."
According to the passage, "I can shut my eyes" means ______.
选项
A、I can close my eyes
B、I can’t see it
C、I can’t notice it
D、I can stand it
答案
D
解析
本题为推理题。根据文章内容可知,上一次他薪水多了五英镑,这个错误他能接受,而这次少了五英镑,这第二次错误他就不能忍受了。“I can shut my eyes”即指“I can stand it”,所以选D。
