My daughter and I had been searching for the origins of my grandfather, Alfred Denny, for several years. We had nothing definite except that he married Minerva Ann Hamilton in Michigan in 1860.
When I was a small child, my father had given me the address of his "Aunt Maggie," Mrs. William Rarick of Everson, Washington. She and I exchanged letters for about three years while I was still a youngster. My father died without giving any further information about his relatives.
About eighty-five years after my correspondence with Aunt Maggie, I decided to see if I could pick up the trail and find out exactly how she fit into the family puzzle. By then I was in my nineties so I knew the odds were not on my side, but I called the telephone operator for a number of anybody by the name of Rarick in the town of Everson, Washington. She told me they have a Charles Rarick and an L. Rarick. I asked her to ring Charles, but there was no answer so I asked her to try L. Rarick.
A woman answered and I said, "Hello, this is Carleton Denny. I am trying to locate relatives of Margaret Rarick."
The lady on the telephone took a long breath and hesitantly said, "She was my grandmother."
I learned that Aunt Maggie was my grandfather’s half sister. The "L" stood for Luella, who still used her maiden name. I had found my family.
选项
A、Her name was Margaret Rarick.
B、She was my grandfather’s half sister.
C、She kept her maiden name.
D、She was L. Rarick’s grandma.
答案
C
解析
题千:下列关于麦琪姑妈的表述哪句是错误的?a选项为“她名叫Margaret Rarick。”;b选项为“她是我祖父同父异母的妹妹。”;c选项为“她保留自己婚前的名字。”;d选项为“她是L.Rarick的祖母。”。根据原文“…my father had given me the address of his‘Aunt Maggie,’Mrs.William Rarick of Everson, Washington”I learned that Aunt Maggie was my grandfather’s half sister.”;“The lady on the telephone took a long breath and hesitantly said,‘She was my grandmother.’”, Margaret的昵称是Maggie,所以a、b、d选项是正确的: c选项是错误选项,因为保留婚前名字的是L.Rarick,而不是姑妈。
