23．D　细节理解题。根据文章第三段中的“I was astonished to feel someone unzip my handbag and remove my purse.”作者感到有人在拉开手提包拿了钱包可以判断答案为D项。

　　(2017·江苏省沐阳银河学校检测)

　　A scientist turns out to be able to see the future by offering each of some four­year­olds a piece of candy and watching how he or she deals with it. Some children reach eagerly for the treat they see. Some last a few minutes before they give in. But others are determined to wait until the last moment.

　　By the time the children reach high school, something remarkable has happened. A survey found that those who as four­year­olds had enough self­control to hold out generally grew up to be more popular, adventurous, confident and dependable. The children who gave in to temptation(诱惑) early were more likely to be lonely, easily frustrated and inflexible(固守己见的)．

　　Actually, the ability to delay reward is a sign of emotional intelligence which doesn't show up on an IQ test.
