问题     We have a rather small house, with only one spare (多余的) bedroom. You can imagine (想象) our alarm (惊恐) when Aunt Clara wrote to say that she was coming with her children to stay for the weekend. Her family was not a small one, with four boys all under the age of twelve.
    I sent off a telegram (电报) at once, explaining that our house was too small. Aunt Clara called us up the next morning. "I forgot to mention (提到) to you, "she said in her sweetest voice, "the boys will be bringing their tents (帐篷) . "
    Even so, my wife was still worried. It was true we had a large garden, but there was still the problem of feeding (喂养) four growing boys.
    "And what if it rains? " she added.
    Luckily Saturday morning turned out to be bright and clear when I went to the station to meet Aunt Clara. I pushed the boys, together with the luggage (行李) , into the back of the car, with great difficulty of course. The youngest sat in front, with Aunt Clara and me.
    On the way home. I talked over the shoulder (肩) to David, the eldest boy, "I didn’t see your tents among your luggage"
    "The tents! " cried David. " My God! We left them at home."

选项 A、she and four boys
B、our house was small
C、it was the weekend
D、her family was not small

答案B

解析 本文第一句看出,我们不欢迎克拉瑞婶婶来访是房子太小,而不是她家人多。
