2016高考英语二轮阅读理解精选(38)及答案
A
In 1969 I was a young girl working in Toronto. I was from a small town in Ontario and had just moved to the big city about three months earlier. It was one week before Christmas and I was going home on the last streetcar of the evening.
I remember looking at my paycheque(工资单) and asking myself how it was going to endure. At that time in my life I hardly had enough money to exist on. Bread for supper and oatmeal for breakfast was the only way I kept hunger at bay.
I got off the streetcar and started walking up the street, when I suddenly noticed a man was running after me. I stopped, turned around, seeing that he was black. I snapped, “What do you want?” The man answered in a soft voice, “I am returning your wallet. You left it on the streetcar seat.”
Because of that man’s thoughtfulness, I was allowed the comfort of going home by bus for the summer holidays. Otherwise, I would have stayed alone in my small room with a hog plate.
I have never been so ashamed of myself, and that poor, kind man had to walk, who knows how far, home.
I recognized immediately that this was wrong of me and it changed my ways forever.
41. What can we learn from the second paragraph?
A. The writer had no job when the story happened.
B. The writer were leaving the big city for her hometown.
