Mrs. Peters stopped playing the piano when she began to work. She had lived in a very small flat, and there had been no room for a piano. But when she married, she had a new flat which was big enough for one. So she decided to get one and her husband agreed and helped her. She saved some money, and her parents gave her a generous amount of money for her birthday. Then she went to a shop and said, " I’ll choose whichever piano does not cost too much and fits into my living room. "
When she had paid for the piano, the shop assistant asked her if she would like him to get it tuned(调音)every few months. Mrs. Peters agreed.
A few months later she heard from the shop that a man was coming to tune the piano at ten that morning. Now she had not cleaned the house yet, so it was dusty and untidy. Mrs. Peters hated having even the least amount of dirt, and felt ashamed whenever strange people saw her house like that. So she had to hurry to clean everything carefully. It meant a lot of effort, and it made her hot and tired, but anyhow, by the time the man arrived, everything was finished.
She opened the door, and the man was standing there with a big dog. " Good morning," the man said politely, "Will it disturb you if I bring my dog in, please? I’m blind, and he leads me wherever I go."
Mrs. Peters had wasted her time getting everything clean as______.
选项
A、the dog would dirty the house
B、the piano tuner could see nothing in the house
C、the dog disturbed Mrs. Peters
D、the piano tuner always took the dog
答案
B
解析
文中讲到,彼得斯夫人精心打扫房间,是因为当陌生人来访时,如果房间很脏、很乱,她会感到很难堪的。而当钢琴调音师到来时,她才知道这是一位盲人,根本看不到房间是否干净。
