I was 15 when I walked into McCarley’s Bookstore in Ashland, Ore., and began scanning titles on the shelves. The man behind the counter, Mac McCarley, asked if I’d like a job. I needed to start saving for college, so I said yes.
I worked after school and during summers for minimum wage, and the job helped pay for my freshman year of college. I would work many other jobs: I brewed (煮) coffee in the student union during college, was a hotel rnaid and even made maps for the U. S. Forest Service. But selling books was one of the most satisfying.
One day a woman asked me for books on cancer. She seemed fearful. I showed her virtually everything we had in stock and found other books we could order. She left the store less apprehensive, and I’ve always remembered the pride I felt in having helped her.
Years later, as a television reporter in Los Angeles, I heard about an immigrant child who was born with his thumb attached, weblike, to the rest of his hand. His family could not afford corrective surgery, and the boy lived in shame, hiding his hand in his pocket.
I persuaded my boss to let me do the story. After my story was broadcast, a doctor and a nurse called, offering to perform the surgery for free. I visited the boy in the recovery room after the operation. The first thing he did was hold up his repaired hand and say, "Thank you." I felt an overwhelming (巨大的) sense of reward.
At McCarley’s Bookstore, I always sensed I was working for the customers, not the store. Today it’s the same. NBC News pays my salary, but I feel as if I work for the viewers, helping them make sense of the world.
The author felt very proud______.
选项
A、because she could help do something for the bookstore
B、when she sold all the books in stock to others
C、because she could order books for the woman
D、when she did her best to help the woman
答案
D
解析
本题为细节题,要求找到“主人公感到很骄傲”的原因。四个选项中有两个表示原因的从句,还有两个表示时间的从句。根据第三段最后一句“…and I’ve always remembered the pride I felt in having helped her.”可以得出结论,所以选项D为正确答案。其他三个选项从常识角度讲可能是主人公感到骄傲的原因或时刻,但是文中并没有提及,因此都不是正确答案。
