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. "
In the second paragraph "the father...had his way" means______.
选项
A、the father went out to work
B、the father made his own decision
C、the father left his daughter alone
D、the father did what he wanted
答案
D
解析
文中第二段第一句说:“……但是小女孩的父亲had his way,罗伯特得到了她的书。”从罗伯特得到了小女孩的书这一结果,我们可以推断出她的父亲做了他想做的事情。所以选项D正确。
