Ann Curry is a famous news presenter of the NBC News "Today" show. When she was 15 she happened to walk into a bookstore in her hometown and began looking at the books on the shelves. The man behind the counter, Mac McCauley, asked if she’ d like a job. She needed to start saving for college, so she said yes.
One day a woman came into the bookstore and asked Ann for books on cancer (癌症). The woman seemed anxious. Ann showed her
practically
everything they had and found other books they could order. The woman left the store less worried, and Ann has always remembered the pride she felt in having helped her customer.
Years later, as a television reporter in Los Angeles, Ann heard about a child who was born with problems with his fingers and his hand. His family could not afford a surgical (外科的) operation, and the boy lived in shame, hiding his hand in his pocket all the time.
Ann persuaded her boss to let her do the story. After the story was broadcast, a doctor and a nurse called, offering to perform the surgical operation for free.
Ann visited the boy in the recovery room after the operation. The first thing he did was to hold up his repaired hand and say, "Thank you. " What a sweet sense of satisfaction Ann Curry felt!
At McCauley’ s bookstore, Ann always sensed she was working for the customers, not the store. Today it’ s the same. NBC News pays her, but she feels as if she works for the people who watch the programs, helping them make sense of the world.
How did Ann help the child get the operation he needed?
选项
A、Ann persuaded the boy to speak on TV.
B、Ann paid for the operation herself.
C、Ann’ s boss agreed to raise money.
D、Ann’ s news report moved some doctors.
答案
D
解析
根据第四段“After the story was broadcast,a doctor and a nurse called,offering to perform the surgical operation for free.”可知,在安的节目播出后,一名医生和一名护士打来电话说愿意为孩子免费做手术,所以是安的新闻报道感动了一些医生,故选D。
