阅读下面材料,从题中所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出一个最佳选项。
Two children stood outside the door with old coats. “Any old papers, lady?” asked one of them.
I was busy. I wanted to say no, but I saw that their shoes had holes in them and they were wet. “Come in and I’ll make you a cup of hot tea. ” They came in, saying nothing. Their shoes left prints on the floor.
I gave them tea and bread to protect (保护) them from the cold outside. Then I went back to the kitchen and started my housework again.
The silence in the living room surprised me. I looked in.
The girl held the empty cup in her hands, looking at it. The boy asked me in a low voice, “Lady, are you rich?”
Am I rich? Oh, no! I looked at the old things in my room.
The girl put her cup back in its saucer (茶碟) carefully and said, “Your cups match (相配) your saucers. ”
Then they left, holding their papers against the wind. They hadn’t said thank you. They didn’t need to. They had done more than that. They had reminded me that I had so much to thank for. The blue cups and saucers were simple, but they matched. The potatoes and meat before me, a roof over my head, my husband with a job—these things matched, too.
I moved the chairs back from the fire and cleaned the living room. The prints of their small shoes were still wet on my floor. I let them be. I wanted them there to remind me how rich I was.
