Peter loved to buy used articles. Almost a month ago, he bought a popular word game that used little pieces of wood with different letters on them. As he was purchasing it, the salesgirl said, " Uh, look, the game box hasn’ t even been opened yet. That might be worth some money. "
Peter examined the box, and sure enough, it was completely covered in factory-sealed plastic. He saw a date of 1977 on the back of the box.
" You should put that up for auction (拍卖) on the Internet, and see what happens," the salesgirl said.
"Yes, you’re right. People like something rare,’ Peter agreed, "I can’t imagine there being very many unopened boxes of this game still around 40 years later. "
"Don’t forget to tell me if you sell it, " the salesgirl smiled.
"No problem," Peter said.
After he got home, Peter went online to several auction websites looking for his game, but he could not find it. Then he typed in the name of the word game and hit SEARCH. The search result was 543 websites contacting information about the changes of the game. Over the years, the game had been produced using letters in different sizes and game boards in different colors. He also found some lists of game fans looking for various versions of the game. Peter emailed some of them, telling them what he had.
Two weeks later, Peter went back to the shop.
"Hello! Do you still remember the unopened word game?"
The salesgirl looked at him for a second, then recognized him and said," Oh, hi!"
"I’ ve got something for you," Peter said. "I sold the game and made $1,000. Thank you for your suggestion. " He handed her three $ 100 bills.
" Wow!" the salesgirl cried out. " Thank you! I never expected it. "
What happened at the end of the story?
选项
A、Peter gave the salesgirl $300 as a reward.
B、The salesgirl became Peter’ s friend.
C、Peter returned the word game for $1,000.
D、The salesgirl felt confused to see Peter again.
答案
A
解析
事实细节题。由文章最后两段可知,彼得给售货员三百美元作为回报。故选A。本文并未提及选项B。选项C和选项D与文章描述不符。
