答案
A一名男子五十一年前忘记归还高中时借的图书馆的两本书,当他意外地发
现自己的错误时,立即归还了书籍并附信说明自己的错误,赔付了远远超出书本
身价值的钱。
C推理计算题。由第一段第一句可知,一本书赔付25美元。三本书就是75
美元。故选C。
C细节理解题。由第二段第一句可知这名男子忘了归还高中图书馆的书。故
选C。
D推理计算题。由第二段第二句heborrowedin1958fromhishigh
school可知借书时间是1958年。由第三句51yearslatter和第四句So,hent
thebooksback可知51年后赔付,1958+51=200故选D。
D细节理解题。由第二段第三句可知他在父母家中发现的未归的书的。故选
D。
C综合判断题。文章中没有谈到图书馆、警察也没有强制还书和赔付,排除
A和B;由第一段可知一本书付25美元罚款,由第四段可知男子为两本书付了
1000美元,所以是多付了而不是少付,故排除D。由第四段可知男子赔付了逾
期费。C与原文相符。故选C。
B当人们认为经济危机下任何人捡到二万一千美元都不会归还时,出租车司
机却从钱包里找到了地址并归还了钱。出租车司机只有一个简单的想法,那就是
诚实、努力工作,为自己的车站努力攒钱。诚实永远是可贵的品质。
