查看习题详情和答案>>Cross was what people call a mysterious (神秘的) man. We had known him for over five years, eve since he became a member of our club(俱乐部)，but he had a way of keeping all his life to himself. We knew where he lived, though he never invited us to his home, and his age too, but only unimportant matters of this kind. It appeared that he did not have to work for a living as we did . He had once talked about a lot of money on which he managed to live comfortably. He was not, however, ready to spend money freely, he was not especially well-dressed and he did not even own a car.
