My friend Vernon Davies kept birds. One day he phoned and told me he was going away for a week. He asked me to feed the birds for him and said that he would leave the key to his front door in my mailbox. Unfortunately, I forgot all about the birds until the night before Vernon was going to return. What was worse, it was already dark when I arrived at his house. (20)I soon found that the key Vernon gave me could not unlock either the front door or the back door. I was getting desperate. (21)I kept thinking of what Vernon would say when he came back. I was just going to give up when I noticed that one bedroom window was slightly open. I found a barrel and pushed it under the window. As the barrel was very heavy, I made a lot of noise. But in the end, I managed to climb up and open the window. (22)I actually had one leg inside the bedroom when I suddenly realized that someone was shining a torch up at me. I looked down and saw a policeman and an old lady, one of Vernon’s neighbors.
"What are you doing up there?" said the policeman.
Feeling like a complete fool, I replied, "I was just going to feed Mr. Davies’ birds."
20. Why couldn’t the man open the door?
21. Why did the man feel desperate?
22. Why did the man feel like a fool?
选项
A、It was getting dark.
B、He was afraid of being blamed by his friend.
C、The birds might have flown away.
D、His friend would arrive any time.
答案
B
解析
题目询问为什么作者感到绝望。关键是要听到“我根本就把喂鸟儿的事给忘了”,“我很快发现Vernon给我的这把钥匙既开不了前门也开不了后门”和“我不断地想Vernon回来之后会说些什么”,由此可知他是怕朋友责怪他,即B。“天黑了”与作者感到绝望没有任何关系,故A不正确;选项C、D的内容文中均未提及。
