问题     A little girl was given so many picture books on her seventh birthday that her father thought his daughter should give one or two of her new books to a little neighbor boy named Robert.
    Now, taking books, or anything else, from a little girl is like taking candy from a baby, but the father of the little girl had his way and Robert got two of her books. "After all, that leaves you with nine," said the father, who thought he was a philosopher and a child psychologist (心 理学家), and couldn’t shut his big stupid mouth on the subject.
    A few weeks later, the father went to his library to look up "father" in the Oxford English Dictionary, to feast his eyes on (饱眼福) the praise of fatherhood through the centuries, but he couldn’t find volume F-G and then he discovered that three others were missing, too—A-B, L-M, V-Z. He began to search his household, and learned what had happened to the four missing volumes.
    "A man came to the door this morning," said his little daughter, "and he didn’t know how to get from here to Torrington, or from Torrington to Winsted, and he was a nice man, much nicer than Robert, and so I gave him four of your books. After all, there are thirteen volumes in the Oxford English Dictionary, and that leaves you with nine. "  
This short story tells us that______.
选项 A、failure is the mother of success
B、what you do not wish done to yourself, do not do to others
C、we should put others first and ourselves last
D、everything is hard in the beginning
答案B
解析 这是一道主旨题。文中第四段都是小女孩对她的父亲说的话，由此我们可以推断出，父亲曾为四本书的事问过女儿。可见父亲也不愿意将自己的书送给别人，而他却要求女儿这样做，所以自己也得到了同样的结局。由此可以看出，选项B就是这个故事想告诉我们的道理。
