A short time later, her husband arrived with chains on his feet and hands, and two armed guards as bodyguards. The woman’s tired face lit up like our little Christmas tree when her husband took a seat beside her. I kept glancing out to watch them laugh, cry and share their child. After almost an hour, I called the prisoner back to my office. While I worked, the guards stood just outside my door. The patient seemed like a gentle and modest man. I wondered what he possibly could have done to be held under such conditions. I tried to make him as comfortable as possible.

　　At the end of the appointment, I wished him a Merry Christmas---a difficult thing to say to a man headed back to prison. He smiled and thanked me. He also said he felt saddened by the fact he hadn’t been able to get his wife anything for Christmas. On hearing this, I was inspired with a wonderful idea.

　　I’ll never forget the look on both their faces as the prisoner gave his wife the beautiful, long-stemmed roses. I’m not sure who experienced the most joy---the husband in giving, the wife in receiving, or myself in having the opportunity to share in this special moment.

　　56．What can be inferred from the first paragraph?

　　A．The writer was a newcomer to her office.

　　B．She was in low spirits because she had to work before Christmas.

　　C．A fellow sent her a dozen red roses as Christmas present.
