Most American people hate repeating the same work endlessly, especially those who live in West America. They try their best to make their life colorful and their work interesting. If they have to do the same regular work, they’ll try to do it in different ways. Repetition and monotony (单调乏味) are what they can’t stand.
In the West of America, there is a beautiful old mountain village which is well known for its straw hats. The villagers there can make different styles of hats—hats for old gentlemen, for sweet and playful children, and for beautiful young ladies. People often go there to buy hats.
One day there came a young tourist who entered a hat shop and found a very nice hat that cost five dollars. He said to the shopkeeper, "If you agree to sell at a cheaper price, I’d like to buy two hundred hats of this style. " "No, you should pay me at least ten dollars each if you wish to get so many hats of the same style. "
"How’s that?" the tourist could not understand.
"Well," said the shopkeeper, "if you buy only one hat of this style, I can make it easily. If you order two hundred hats of different styles, I can also manage the business without much difficulty. However,
it will almost bore me to death
if you want me to make two hundred hats of the same style. So at least you pay me double price. "
The answer of the shopkeeper really made the tourist________.
选项
A、frightened
B、pleased
C、puzzled
D、delighted
答案
C
解析
根据第四段"How’s that?" the tourist could not understand.可知,那位游客不能理解店主的话,并问为什么会那样。由此可推知,C项(困惑的,迷惑不解的)符合题意。frightened:惊吓的,害怕的;pleased:高兴,愉快;delighted:高兴的,愉快的,快乐的,这三项均不符合题意。故选C。
