问题 By saying "the letter ’b’ is silent in pronunciation", the author wants to indicate that ______
According to Paragraph 2, the waitress plays tricks on the patron by ______

选项 A、telling him the particular meanings of the three pennies.
B、informing him a pun which is intended to insult him indirectly.
C、using a double-meaning joke as a punishment for that few tips.
D、explaining to him the implied meaning of the three-pennies.

答案C

解析 为细节理解题。第2段讲女服务员和顾客之间发生的小故事,为了说明"subtle"透着智慧。她用顾客给的三便士巧妙地戏弄了他,作为小费太少的惩罚。她话中有话,表达曲折,A和D都只讲了话的其中一层含义,并不是为了侮辱他,所以B也不正确。
