A little girl was given so many picture books on her seventh birthday that her father thought his daughter should give one or two of her new books to a little neighbor boy named Robert.
Now, taking books, or anything else, from a little girl is like taking candy from a baby, but the father of the little girl had his way and Robert got two of her books. "After all, that leaves you with nine," said the father, who thought he was a philosopher and a child psychologist (心 理学家), and couldn’t shut his big stupid mouth on the subject.
A few weeks later, the father went to his library to look up "father" in the Oxford English Dictionary, to feast his eyes on (饱眼福) the praise of fatherhood through the centuries, but he couldn’t find volume F-G and then he discovered that three others were missing, too—A-B, L-M, V-Z. He began to search his household, and learned what had happened to the four missing volumes.
"A man came to the door this morning," said his little daughter, "and he didn’t know how to get from here to Torrington, or from Torrington to Winsted, and he was a nice man, much nicer than Robert, and so I gave him four of your books. After all, there are thirteen volumes in the Oxford English Dictionary, and that leaves you with nine. "
What does the writer think of the father?
选项
A、He was very strict with his daughter.
B、He was too proud to listen to his daughter.
C、As a child psychologist, he didn’t understand his daughter’s psychology very well.
D、As a father, he showed little care for his daughter.
答案
C
解析
文中第二段第二句说:“……认为他是一位哲学家和儿童心理学家,在此问题上不能闭上他那愚蠢的大嘴。”结合最后小女孩的做法及对父亲的态度,我们可知他并不了解女儿的心理,他的理论和做法都是错误的。所以选项C正确。
