George and his wife had a small bar(酒吧) near a station. The bar often kept open till after midnight, because people want to drink there while they were waiting for trains.
At two o'clock one morning, one old man was still at a table in the bar. He was asleep. Betty was tired and sleepy. She wanted to go to bed. She looked into the bar several times, and each time the old man was still there. Then at last she went to her husband and said to him, “You've woken that man six times now, George, but he isn't drinking anything. Why haven't you sent him away? It's very late.”
“Oh, no, I don't want to send him away,” answered her husband with a smile “You see, whenever(无论什么时候) I wake him up, he asks for his bill(账单), and when I bring it to him, he pays it. Then he goes to sleep again.”

解析:
1.B 这个老人在酒吧睡着的原因是他喝醉了。这里的“he drunk”是“喝醉”的意思。 2.D Betty要George把老人送走的原因是她想睡觉了。 3.C 短文第二段有Betty对George说的这么一句话“You've woken that man six times now,…(你已经叫醒他六次了……)”,为什么乔治叫这个老人,因为每叫醒一次就是给他一次账单,每给他一次账单,这个老人就付一次钱,叫醒六次就付了六次钱。 4.D 喝一次酒付六次钱,为了得更多的钱,乔治当然不想让这个老人走。 5.B 这个老人愿意付钱是因为他认为自己喝了酒。 |
