问题     My friend, Emma Danicls, spent the summer of 1974 traveling in Israel. During her month-long stay in Jerusalem, she often went to a caf6 called Chocolate Soup. It was run by two men, of the whom—Alex—used to live in Montreal. One morning when Emma went in for coffee, while chatting with her new friend Alex, she mentioned that she had just finished the book she was reading and had nothing else to read. Alex said he had a wonderful book she might like, and that he’d be happy to lend it to her. As he lived just above the cafe, he quickly ran up to get it. The book he handed to Emma just minutes later was Markings, a book by a former Secretary-General of the United Nations(UN).
    Emma had never read it, nor had she ever bought a copy, but when she opened it up, she was floored to see her own name and address inside the cover, in her own handwriting(笔迹). It turned out that the summer before, at a concert back in Montreal, Emma had met a Californian who was in town visiting friends. They decided to exchange(交换)addresses, but neither of them had any paper. The man opened up a book he was carrying in his backpack(背包)and asked Emma to write her name and address inside. When he returned to California, he left the book behind in Montreal, and his friend Alex kept it. When Alex later moved to Jerusalem, he took the book along.
Who was supposed to be the first owner of the book?

选项 A、An official of the UN.
B、A coffee shop owner.
C、A friend of the author’s.
D、Alex’s friend from California.

答案D

解析 根据最后一段,Alex的朋友把书留在了Montreal,由“his friend Alex kept it”可确定答案为D项。
