问题     Mrs. Wilson, the wife of a rich man, invited some of her friends to lunch. She was trying a new way to cook fish and she was very pleased with herself when the fish was ready. As the fish was very hot, she put it near the open window to cool for a few minutes. Five minutes later, when she came back for it, she was surprised to find the neighbor’s cat was eating the fish. She was in time to stop the cat before it was too late. That afternoon everyone enjoyed the fish. They talked and laughed until four o’clock.
    At the end of the afternoon, when she was alone again, Mrs. Wilson felt tired but happy. She was in a chair just near the window when, through the window, she was shocked to see the neighbor’s cat dead in her garden. Why? The fish dish must be bad! What would happen to her friends? She at once telephoned the family doctor for advice. The doctor told her to telephone each of the visitors to meet him at the hospital as soon as she could. Finally the danger was over. Once again Mrs. Wilson was alone in her chair in the sitting room, still tired but no longer happy. Just then the telephone rang. It was her neighbor. "Oh, Mrs. Wilson," her neighbor cried, "Chester is dead. He was killed by someone in a car and put in your garden. "
Why was Mrs. Wilson not happy after she had a good party?

选项 A、Because she was sad about the dead cat.
B、Because she found her fish dish had not been cooked well.
C、Because she never thought that she would have so much trouble.
D、Because she felt tired after she had a busy day.

答案C

解析 根据第二段可知,在派对结束之后,Wilson夫人发现邻居家的猫死在了自家花园里,她误以为是因为那只猫吃了自己为朋友们做的鱼,就赶紧联系家庭医生,然后她又给参加过派对的朋友们一一打电话,让他们去医院,好在最后大家都安然无恙,这让Wilson夫人感觉很累却并不开心。由此可推知,Wilson夫人在令人愉快的派对结束后不开心是因为她从未想到自己会有这么多麻烦事。故选C。
