The very wealthy English Baron Fitzgerald had only one child, a son, who understandably was the apple of his eye. His wife died when the child was in his early teens. So Fitzgerald devoted himself to fathering the kid. Unfortunately the son died in his late teens.
Meanwhile, Fitzgerald’s wealth greatly increased. He spent a lot on art works of the masters. Later Fitzgerald himself because seriously ill. Before his death, he had carefully prepared his will as to how his wealth would be settled—to sell his entire collection at an auction (拍卖).
Because of the large quantity and high quality of his collection, a huge crowd of possible buyers gathered for the auction. Many of them were museum directors and private collectors eager to bid (出价).Before the auction, the art works were shown, among which was a painting of Fitzgerald’s son by an unknown artist. Because of its poor quality, it received little attention.
When it was time for the auction, the auctioneer gaveled (敲槌) the crowd to attention. First the lawyer read from Fitzgerald’s will that the first art work to be auctioned was the painting of his son.
The poor-quality painting didn’t receive and bidders...except one—the old servant who had served the son and loved him, and who for emotional reasons offered the only bid.
As soon as the servant bought the painting for less than one English pound, the auctioneer stopped the bidding and asked the lawyer to read again from the will. The crowd became quiet, and the lawyer read from the will:“Whoever buys the painting of my son gets all my collection.”Then the auction was over.

最佳答案
(答案→)C 解析:【小题1】推断题。根据第二段“He spent a lot on art works of the masters.”和第三段的“Because of the large quantity and high quality of his collection,”可以推断出Fitzgerald是个收藏家。【小题2】推断题。根据倒数第二段“...except one—the old servant who had served the son and loved him,and who for emotional reasons offered the only bid.”可知老佣人曾为富翁的儿子服务,出于情感的考虑拍下了这幅画。【小题3】推理题。根据最后一段,拍下他儿子画像的人将得到所有藏品,说明了他对儿子的爱是无法衡量的。
