Like most people, I was brought up to look upon life as a process of getting. It was not until in my late thirties that I made this important discovery; giving away makes life so much more exciting. You need not worry if you lack money. This is how I experimented with giving away. If an idea for improving the window display of a neighborhood store flashes to me, I step in and make the suggestion to the storekeeper. One discovery I made about giving away is that it is almost impossible to give away anything in this world without getting something back, though the return often comes in an unexpected form. One Sunday morning the local post office delivered an important special delivery letter to my home, though it was addressed to me at my office. I wrote the postmaster a note of appreciation. More than a year later I needed a post office box for a new business I was starting. I was told at the window that there were no boxes left, and that my name would have to go on a long waiting list. As I was about to leave, the postmaster appeared in the doorway. He had overheard our conversation. " Wasn’ t it you that wrote us that letter a year ago about delivering a special delivery to your home?" I said yes. "Well, you certainly are going to have a box in this post office if we have to make one for you. You don’ t know what a letter like that means to us. We usually get nothing but complaints. "
According to the author______.
选项
A、giving means you will lack money
B、the excitement of giving can bring you money
C、you don’ t have to be rich in order to give
D、when you give away money, you will be rich
答案
C
解析
对本题的选择需要理解文章的大意,并由此判断出“giving away”(给予)并不单指物质上的帮助,更重要的是精神上的给予。C选项与文中第三、四句“You neednot worry if you lack money.This is how I experimented with giving away.”(如果你不是很富有也不必担心。这就是通过“给予”我所得到的。)所以只有C项表达与此意相符。
