After losing her job and home in 1984, Lynn Carr was living on the streets of St. Charles, Montana, with her five-year-old son. "We slept in our car for about a week," she said, "but then it was sold."
As she moved from one friend’s house to another, Carr began working toward a high-school- equivalence diploma, listening to self-help tapes and making cheesecakes. After developing some new methods which she thought were pretty good, she offered her cakes to a restaurant. They sold out in a matter of hours.
The following year, she met a man at a church service and before long, they married. Carr began selling the cheesecakes out of their home. Later she opened a cheesecake company. As business became better and better, Carr didn’t forget where she came from.
All the women she hires are mothers or high-school dropouts (退学者)--workers most other employers wouldn’t like to hire. Her dozen workers make 100 to 150 cakes a week and Cart owes her success to her employees. She says, "We’re going to have a learning center and a day-care center in the company. Part of the workday will be spent studying for high-school-equivalence diplomas."
Recently, a 33-year-old woman with three children to raise was referred to Cart. She hired her at once. "It has been a real blessing," the woman said.
选项
A、was once a school dropout herself
B、had few friends to turn to for help
C、had to sell her car for a new one
D、didn’t work hard enough to keep her job
答案
A
解析
题干意为“文章暗示我们卡尔的什么信息?”文章第二段第一句话... Carr began working toward s high-school-equivalence diploma... 说明她还没有高中学历。所以本题的正确答案为A。
