问题     Mr. Grey was the manager of a small office in London. He lived in the country, and came up to work by train. He liked walking from the station to his office unless it was raining, because it gave him some exercise.
    One morning he was walking along the street when a stranger stopped him and said to him, "You may not remember me, sir, but seven years ago I came to London without a penny in my pockets. I stopped you in this street and asked you to lend me some money, and you lent me £ 5, because you said you were willing to take a chance so as to give a man a start on the way to success. "
    Mr. Grey thought for a few minutes and then said, "Yes, I remember you. Go on with your story!" "Well, " answered the stranger, "are you still willing to take a chance?"
In the second paragraph, " . . . take a chance" means______.

选项 A、Mr. Gray happened to meet a stranger
B、Mr. Grey had a chance to help a stranger
C、Mr. Grey helped a stranger by chance
D、Mr. Grey took the risk that the stranger would not give back the money which he lent him

答案D

解析 句意理解题. 由第二段可知,“…take a chance”的意思是Grey先生给陌生人钱,会有他不还的风险。take a chance意为“冒险”。故选D。
