Last week, the manager of an old jeweler's shop received a letter marked personal. As he was very busy, the letter lay on his desk till teatime. When he opened it, a $100 note fell. out onto his desk. With the note was a short letter. This is what it said:
Dear sir,
I got engaged (订婚的) forty years ago. Unfortunately at that time there was a lot of unemployment and I lost my job. I was out of work for about six months before I got another one. Of course I was very short of money.
I came to your shop to buy a wedding ring one day. The assistant brought some rings for me to have a look, later she was called away, and then I put one of the rings into my pocket. When she came back, I said I did not know the size of my girlfriend's finger.

So I left the shop without paying for the ring. My wife died a month ago, and the fact that I never paid for her ring has been on my conscience
(让我良心不安) all these years. I always feel guilty about that. At that time the ring cost $ 20, and I think that is about five times- $100 at today's price. Now I am sending you that amount.
Yours truly,
A customer

(答案→)A 解析：短文大意：一位顾客在四十年前订婚时，因失业缺钱，在一家珠宝店给女朋友拿了一枚戒指而没有付钱。他的妻子一个月前去世了，而事实上所有的这些年他一直在为没有付戒指款而感到内疚，所以他给珠宝店的经理写了一封信并且寄去原戒指款的五倍作为补偿，珠宝店经理读后大为感叹“好的，好的，好的，生活中充满了惊喜！”【小题1】细节理解题。根据At that time the ring cost $ 20, and I think that is about five times- $100 at today's price（在那时间戒指20美元，我认为这约是今天价格的五倍，达100美元）可知选.A。【小题2】词义猜测题。根据and I lost my job.（我失去了我的工作）可知unemployment 的意思是失业，所以选D。【小题3】细节理解题。根据My wife died a month ago （我的妻子一个月前去世了）可知选B。【小题4】细节理解题。读短文可知经理自己打开信，读后说生活中充满了惊喜。客户总是为几年前没付戒指钱而感到不安，所以选C。

谢谢回答！！！
