问题     We walked so quietly that the nurse at the desk didn’t even lift her eyes from the book. Mum pointed to a big chair by the door and I knew she wanted me to have a seat. While I watched mouth open in surprise, mum took off her hat and coat and gave them to me to hold. She walked quietly to the small room by the lift and took out a wet mop (拖把). She pushed the mop past the  desk and as the nurse looked up, mum nodded and said," Very dirty floors."
    "Yes. I’m glad they’ve finally decided to clean them," the nurse said. She looked at strangely and said," But aren’t you working late?"
    Mum just pushed harder, each swipe (拖) of the mop taking her farther and farther down the hall. I watched until I couldn’t see her and the nurse had turned back to write in the big book
    After a long time mum came back. Her eyes were shining. She rapidly put the mop back and took my hand. As we turned to go out of the door, mum nodded politely to the nurse and "Thank you."
    Outside, mum told me:" Dagmar is fine. No fever."
    "You saw her, mum?"
    "Of course. I told her about the hospital rules, and she will not expect us until tomorrow will stop worrying as well. It’s a fine hospital. But such floors! A mop is no good. You need a brush."

选项 A、to clean the floor
B、to please the nurse
C、to see a patient
D、to surprise the story-teller

答案C

解析 从文章最后三段得知:当妈妈从小屋子拿拖把去拖地目的是想去看望一位病人。故本题答案为C。
