问题     Mary is a beautiful girl. She studied in a college in London a year ago. When she left London, she returned to the town where she was born. And she found work in a middle school. She teaches her students French there. She sings and dances well and she likes her work. So she makes friends soon and most people in the town know her. She often takes part in all kinds of meetings and parties and she always sings or dances for the people. She spends a lot of time on it. Sometimes she goes to bed late and can’t get up on time. Of course she’s often late to go to work. Mr. Read, the headmaster(校长), is strict(严格)with everybody. He always stands by the school gate when the first bell rings. Mary has to tell him that her watch is slow. She got home late last night, and this morning she got up late again. She hurried to school without breakfast, but Mr. Read was waiting for her at the gate.   “I’m sorry, Mr. Read."said Mary, "My watch…"   “Your watch is slow again, isn’t it?" the old man said angrily, "I have to say: You’d better change your watch, or I’ll change you."
What do Mr. Read’s last words mean?

选项 A、He told the girl to buy a better watch.
B、He won’t let the girl go to the meetings.
C、The girl will be fired if she’s late again.

答案C

解析 瑞得先生最后一句话的意思是…。推理题。从文中可知玛丽迟到时总是以手表慢为借口,因此,瑞得先生不再相信这个理由了,故[A]项排除。瑞得先生说这句话是警告玛丽不能再迟到了。故[C]项正确。
