问题     In Haverford on the Platte the townspeople still talk of Lucy Gayheart. They do not talk of her a great deal, to be sure; life goes on and we live in the present. But when they do mention her name it is with a gentle glow in the face or the voice, a confidential glance which says. "Yes, you, too, remember?" They still see her as a slight figure always in motion; dancing or skating, or walking swiftly with intense direction, like a bird flying home.
    When there is a heavy snowfall, the older people look out of their windows and remember how Lucy used to come darting throughout just such storms, her muff against her cheek, not shrinking, but giving her body to the wind as if she were catching step with it. And in the heat of summer she came just as swiftly down the long shaded sidewalks and across the open squares blistering in the sun. In the breathless glare of August noons, when the horses hung their heads and the workmen "took it slow," she never took it slow. Cold, she used to say, made her feel more alive; heat must have had the same effect.
The narrator’s perspective indicated that Lucy was probably
选项 A、a town misfit.
B、scholarly and snobbish.
C、dead at a young age.
D、most comfortable in the city.
答案C
解析 从第二段对Lucy的描写，可以看出她只是个活泼的孩子，人们所能记住的还是她当年的样子。所以很可能她死时，年纪很轻。
