Pete took his seat this day on his usual bench in Union Square．Every Thanksgiving Day for nine years Pete had taken this same seat exactly at one o'clock, and each time the same pleasant thing had happened．But this time Pete had come here more from habit than from hunger．Certainly today Pete was not hungry．Two rich old ladies gave him a Thanksgiving dinner of everything he could eat．

       Pete sat on the bench now, hardly able to move．The buttons on his ragged shirt and coat were about to burst．The November breeze and the first light fall of snow felt cool and pleasant to his face．He happened to look to the left and there in the distance he saw the old Gentleman coming toward him．He wanted to get up and run, but he was so full of food he stayed right there．Every Thanksgiving Day for nine years, the Old Gentleman had come there, found Pete on this same bench, and then taken him to a restaurant and bought him a Thanksgiving dinner．It was a kind of tradition which the Old Gentleman, who had no family and lived alone, had tried to continue．

       "How do you do' "said the Old Gentleman．" Glad to see that the changes of another year have permitted you to move in health through this beautiful world．"

       Each time the Old Gentleman had said exactly this same thin? It was part of the tradition．Pete, too, began to feel as though he himself was now a part of the tradition, and he therefore did not have the courage to tell the old man that he had already eaten．This dinner seemed to mean so much to the Old Gentleman.

       "Thank you, sir, " said Pete at last. “I’ll go with you gladly. I’m very hungry, sir.” Together the Old Gentleman and Pete walked south to the same restaurant where each year Pete had his Thanksgiving dinner. The Old Gentleman seemed pleased and happy. When the waiter brought dish after dish of food to Pete, the Old Gentlenman sat quietly and smiled．Under the circumstances, Pete had to eat．It was part of the tradition, and so he ate like a hero, although when he entered the restaurant even the smell of food almost made him sick．At last Pete leaned back with the battle won．

       " Thank you, sir, " he said, with some effort, " for a fine dinner．"

       They parted as they did each year at the door, the Old Gentlemen going south, Pete north．

       Around the corner, Pete stopped for a moment, felt a terrible pain in his stomach, and then fell to the sidewalk unconscious．A little time later an ambulance came．In the hospital they discovered that he had had an attack of indigestion （消化不良）.

       An hour later, another ambulance brought the Old Gentleman to the same hospital．At first they thought it was also indigestion but later one of the nurses said, "That nice old gentleman over there—you wouldn't think that it was a case of hunger．"

Where did Pete and the Old Gentleman meet every Thanksgiving Day?

       A．In the restaurant．           

       B．In Union Square．

       C．At the Old Gentleman's house．

       D．At the hospital．

Which of the following sentences in the passage doesn't show Pete was full?

       A．Pete sat on the bench now, hardly able to move．

       B．The buttons on his ragged shirt and coat were about to burst．

       C．Glad to see that the changes of another year have permitted you to move in health through this beautiful world．

       D．When he entered the restaurant even the smell of food almost made him sick．

The underlined sentence "I'm very hungry, sir．" in Paragraph 5 implies that        .

       A．Pete didn't have the heart to refuse the offer

       B．Pete was so greedy that he wanted to have another dinner

       C．Pete was suffering from hunger

       D．Pete enjoyed having the Thanksgiving dinner for free
