Gladys Holm was a secretary. She worked in an office all her life. Gladys earned about $15,000 a year. She died when she was 86 years old. And she left a big surprise— $18 million! She gave the money to a children’s hospital.
Gladys never got married or had any children. But she always liked children, and she wanted to help them. When her friend’s daughter was ill in hospital, Gladys brought her a teddy bear. After that, she visited the hospital many times. Every time she visited, she brought teddy bears for those children. After that, people started to call Gladys the "Teddy Bear Lady".
Gladys always gave toys and presents to her friends and family but no one knew she had a lot of money. She lived in a small house outside Chicago. Everyone was very surprised when they learned she was rich. A family friend said, "She always gave us nice presents and things, but we didn’t know she was rich. "
How did Gladys get so much money? She asked her boss how to earn more money, and she listened to what he said. She bought the stocks(股票) that he told her to buy, and she got very rich. Before she died, she talked to her friends about "giving something to the children’s hospital". No one knew that the "something" was $18 million!
________, so she got rich.
选项
A、Gladys earned $15,000 a year as a secretary
B、Gladys did what her boss told her to do
C、Gladys got the money from her boss
D、Gladys did another job in the hospital
答案
B
解析
根据最后一段第二、三句“She asked her boss how to earn more money, and she listened to what he said. She bought the stocks(股票) that he told her to buy, and she got very rich. ”可知,Gladys想知道如何能挣更多的钱,于是向自己的老板求教并听老板的话;买了老板吩咐她买的股票,然后她就变得非常富有了。故选B。
