3. How many billion dollars did the US billionaires lose in 2008 altogether mentioned in the paragraph 4?
A. 18
B. 25
C. 43
D. 50
答案解析:答案为C。本题为数字计算题。题干要求算出第四段中美国的亿万富翁在2008年总共损失多少美元,由第四段可知,Gates损失了18 billion,Warren Buffett损失了25 billion,他们都是美国人,总共是43 billion,故答案为C。第四段提到的第三位虽然也损失了25 billion,但是是墨西哥人At the age of ten I could not figure out what this Elvis Presley guy had that the rest of us boys did not have. I mean, he had a head, two arms and two legs, just like the rest of us. About nine o’clock on Saturday morning I decided to ask Eugene Correthers, one of the older boys, what it was that made this Elvis guy so special. He told me that it was Elvis’ wavy hair and the way he moved his body.
About half an hour later all the boys in the orphanage(孤儿院)were called to the main dining-room and told we were all going to downtown Jacksonville, Florida to get a new pair of Buster Brown shoes and a hair cut.That is when I got this big idea, which hit me like a ton of bricks.If the Elvis hair cut was the big secret, then that’s what I was going to get.
All the way to town I told everybody, including the matron(女管家)from the orphanage who was taking us to town, that I was going to look just like Elvis Presley and that I would learn to move around just like he did and that I would be rich and famous one day, just like him.
