問題詳情

請依下文回答第 14 題至第 17 題：During my high school years my best friend was Susan Miller, a girl who had lived down the street from me all herlife. We knew each other well and had many interests in common. One way in which we were different, however, was inour shopping habits. When I shopped, I always knew what I wanted, got it quickly, and left. For Susan, shopping was agame. She spent all day at it: examining, comparing, and finally, if conditions were right, buying. All too often I havespent hours waiting for her to make up her mind. In fact, my longest “shopathon” was on a Christmas Eve when Susanand I went to pick up a few last-minute gifts. She wanted a fit for her father, and I had to get something for my youngestsister, Sara. We started at 9:00 A.M., and by 10:15 I had bought Sara her gift, a toy Dalmatian. Then I just trudgedaround the mall after Susan. By one o’clock she still had not made a purchase, and the mall was becoming humangridlock. Finally feeling some compassion, Susan bought herself and me each a slice of pizza. We had to eat standing up;the tables were all filled. Then, walking and walking through endless stores, we continued shopping. She examinedshirts, scarves, ties, knickknacks. Her response to every possibility was negative: her father had it, he wouldn’t like it,this was too expensive, and that was too cheap. Nothing seemed right for Susan’s father. Finally, fifteen minutes beforethe mall was scheduled to close, she came out of a store in triumph. “I got it!”she said. I looked up from where I wassitting on a bench, rubbing my swollen feet. “What?” I asked weakly. She held up a piece of paper. “A giftcertificate!”she exclaimed. “With this my father can get whatever he wants.”
