问题 Where is the conversation taking place?
  
W: Well, look at the words. Someone gave this book as a present, and wrote a note on the inside of the front cover. It’s dated 1893. Maybe it’s worth something.
M: Everything on that shelf is worth fifty cents.
W: But if this is the signature of someone who is well-known, it might bring a lot more. I hear William Shakespeare’s signature is worth about a million dollars.
M: Oh? I can hardly read what that one says. Who wrote it?
W: The name looks like "Harold Dickson". Wasn’t he a politician or something? I’m going to buy this book and see if I can find a name looks like that in the library.
M: Good luck.  Your poetry book may make you rich, but I think my seventy-five-cent story is a better buy.

选项 A、He gave gifts to millions of people.
B、He was a very wealthy man in his time.
C、A sample of his writing is worth a lot of money.

答案C

解析 在第一轮对话中女士先提到了一个人写在书上的字,然后说Maybe it’s worth something,在第二轮对话中进一步指出这个签名也许是某个名人的,it might bring a lot more,然后说莎士比亚的签名值约100万美元,当然是为了说明名人的签名值钱的观点,故选[C]。
