D. Answer (he questions (根据短文内容回答问题）（12分）
A woman was at the airport waiting for her flight to start boarding.
She still had a lot of time, so she went to a shop and bought a book to
read. While she was in the shop, she decided to buy a bag of cookies as
well.
She arrived at her gate, sat down and started reading her book. She
read her book so attentively that she didn’t notice what was going on around her. But she did see
that a man had sat down next to her and taken one of her cookies out of the bag.
She pretended not to notice, as she didn’t want to make a scene (当众大吵). But
then the man took more. He kept eating the cookies until there was just one left. The
man took the last cookie and broke it in half. He lapped the woman on the shoulder and
held out one half to her.
The woman could not believe how much nerve this man had to steal all of her cookies and then
offer half a cookie in return. She angrily grabbed the half-cookie out of his hand and ate it without
any words.
Finally, it was time for her to board. As she went to the gate, she reached into her purse.

cookies the whole time and simply wanted to share the last one with her. The woman’s face turned
red with shame. Therefore, she quickly caught up with him and said, “______93_____.”

every possibility when trying to understand a particular situation.
