One day a very wealthy American, Hiram Boost, came to Macasso—you may have heard of Boost, he’s in films-and he said he had bought, secretly, a valuable 16th century "old master". He said, "I know that the English government won’t let me take it out of England, but I have a plan to get round that. I want you to paint a picture—it doesn’t matter what it is-on top of the ’old master’." Hiram then explained that he could quite easily get Macasso’s picture removed from the canvas when he got to New York, without damaging the painting underneath. Well, Macasso painted a picture of a London gas-works on it, and old Boost got the canvas to New York all right and sent it to the firm he knew to have Maeasso’s painting removed. About a week later he got a telegram from the firm. It said: "We have removed the picture of London gas-works, also ’old master’, and are now down to a portrait of Queen Victoria. When do you want us to stop?"
选项
A、The nickname of Macasso.
B、Another name of Hiram Boost.
C、A painting by an old master.
D、A canvas for an old master.
答案
C
解析
答案在这句话中:he said he had bought, secretly, a valuable 16th century "old master".一幅贵重的16世纪的名画。注意:英语中可用人名表示作品,如:I bought a Shakespeare yesterday.昨天我买子本莎士比亚的书。
