问题    Frenchmen attach great importance to education. They regard the cultivation of children as a social obligation. French education mixes warm romantic humor into its careful and severe education. I have ever heard such a story:
   It took place in an ordinary French family. One day, when the boy was playing basketball, the ball hit a vase off the shelf with its mouth knocked off a large piece. The vase was an antique handed down through generations from Bourbon Dynasty. To cover the great trouble, the boy glued the pieces together and put the vase back to its place panic-stricken.
   That evening his mother noticed the change on it. At dinnertime, she asked her boy if he had broken the vase. Being scared of punishment, the boy said by a sudden inspiration that a cat jumped in from the window and knocked the vase off the shelf. His mother was quite clear that her son was lying, for all the windows were closed before her leaving. However, she just said that it seemed it was her carelessness not to have the window tightly closed.
   Before going to bed, the boy found a note on his bed, on which he was asked to go to the study. The boy had thought he had gotten by under false pretences, but then felt he couldn’t dodge the misfortune. Now that he had already lied, he made up his mind no matter what his mother said, he would disavow to the end.
   On seeing her son enter in fear, his mother took out a chocolate box and gave one piece of the chocolates to her son. "Baker, this chocolate is a reward for you, for you created a cat with your special imagination." Then, she put another chocolate in his hand. "This chocolate is a reward for your ability to restore. But the glue you used is for restoring paper materials; to restore a vase needs higher special technique. Tomorrow, let’s bring the vase to the artists to see how they make a craftwork intact as it was." With that, she took the third chocolate, "The last chocolate stands for my apology. I shouldn’t have laid a vase in a place where it could so easily fall down. I wish you hadn’t been scared, my little sweetheart."
   "But, Mom, I..." The boy tried to make something clear, but he awkwardly uttered nothing but some words. "Our talk is over. Good night, Baker!" She gave a soft kiss on his forehead and walked out of the study.
   The following days were the same as before. The only change was that the boy had never told a lie since then.
   No scolding. It looks unimaginably queer. In fact, the three chocolates are the alarm in the boy’s heart all the time. Sometimes, no punishment itself is a kind of punishment.
How did the boy feel when he found the note on his bed?
选项 A、Doubtful.
B、Calm.
C、Uneasy.
D、Embarrassed.
答案C
解析 推断题。定位到原文第四段。小男孩发现纸条后，明白自己之前撒的谎并没有蒙混过关，也避免不了惩罚了，当然会感到uneasy(不安的)。下一段的开头“her son enter in fear”也表明了小男孩的感觉是害怕、不安的。故选C。
