I had just gone to bed after a very hard day when the phone rang. It was an eccentric farmer. I had never met him before although I had often heard people talk about him. He sounded quite nervous and he had been talking for a minute or so before I understood anything. Even then all I could make out was that someone called Milly had had a very bad accident. I hadn’t the slightest idea who she was but I obviously had to go.
It had been snowing heavily that day and I didn’t know the way. I had been driving for at least an hour when I finally found his place. He was standing there, waiting for me. It seemed Milly had died. “She meant more to me than anyone even my own wife!” he said. I could see that he had been crying. I thought something terrible had taken place, a possible scandal. I was even more shocked when he told me he had put her in the barn. “I wouldn’t leave her out in the cold!” he said.
Milly had clearly been a secret lover of his. I was about to tell him he could not expect me to cover anything up when he opened the barn door. He lifted his candle and I saw a dark figure on the ground. “She was such a good cow! I wouldn’t let anyone but a doctor touch her!” he said, and burst into tears again.
Questions 33 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.
33. What do we know about Milly from the story?
34. What might the farmer wish the speaker to do?
35. What is probably the person who told the story?
选项
A、A farmer.
B、A policeman.
C、A country doctor.
D、A newspaper reporter.
答案
C
解析
选项表明,本题考查人物身份。说话者提到有一位农夫给他打电话,他从农夫的话中得知someone called Milly had had a very bad accident,等他赶到时,Milly已经死了,农夫说I wouldn’t let anyone but a doctor touch her,由此可推知,说话者应该是一位乡村医生,故答案为[C]。
