推断题。第三段记叙了Reuben走进店铺的事情,他对店主说“But I don’t have the money right now.Can you please hold it for me for some time?”,直至他离开店铺都没有表现出傲慢无礼,[C]不符合文意,故为答案。“Standing proud and straight in his flour-sack shirt and washed-out trousers”说明他不因穿得破旧而自卑,充分表现出自信,[A]符合文意;他向老板提出要求“But I don’t have the money fight now.Can you please hold it for me for some time?”,说明他很善于与人打交道,[B]符合文意;第五段的“Reuben respectfully touched his worn cap and walked out into the sunlight”表明他很懂礼貌,[D]符合文意。
