An elderly woman yesterday made a legal claim against a department store because it had wrongly accused her of stealing a Christmas card. Mrs. Doss White, 72 years old, is claiming $3,000 damages from the store for wrongful arrest and false imprisonment. Mrs. White visited the store while doing Christmas shopping, but did not buy anything. She was followed through the town by a store manager. He had been told that a customer saw her take a card and put it in her shopping bag. He stopped her at a bookstore as she was reading a book. Mrs. White said, "This man, a total stranger, suddenly grasped my bag and asked if he could look in it." She was taken back to the store and shut in a small room in full view of shoppers for 20 minutes until the police arrived. At the police station she was body-searched and nothing was found.[25]Her lawyer said that the department store sent an insincere apology and they insisted that she may have been stealing. The hearing continues today.
22. What does the story tell us about the old woman?
23. What was said to have been stolen?
24. What happened to Mrs. White after she was taken back to the store?
25. What was now the attitude of the department store in this legal case?
选项
A、She was found stealing in a bookstore.
B、She caught someone in the act of stealing.
C、She admitted having stolen something.
D、She said she was wrongly accused of stealing.
答案
D
解析
题目询问该故事告诉了我们关于老太太的一些什么情况。关键是要听到文章首句:“一位老太太昨天起诉了一家百货商店,因为该店冤枉她偷了一张圣诞贺卡。”故选D。文中提到的事件发生地点是百货商店而不是书店,故A不正确;B在文中未提及;C与老太太的实际态度恰好相反。
