题目内容：

Tom was taken to the police station and put in a room with another thief, an older man.

The man looked at Tom and said, “Why have they brought you here, boy?” “I stole a small radio one day after lessons,” Tom said. The man laughed rudely at him, “you should steal something which is worth a lot if you want to be a thief. You ought to steal something really expensive, so that your name is put in the newspaper. Go and steal a lot of money from a bank next time!”

Tom thought for a few seconds and then said, “I can’t do that!” “Why can’t you?” said the older man. “Are you afraid?” “No,” said Tom, “I’m not afraid at all, but the banks are all closed at three o’clock, and my lessons don’t finish until four.”

答案解析：

小题1:C 细节题。根据第二段1,2行“I stole a small radio one day after lessons,说明他偷了收音机，而被当成小偷抓了起来，故C正确。

小题2:C细节题。根据第二段2,3行The man laughed rudely at him, “you should steal something which is worth a lot if you want to be a thief. You ought to steal something really expensive,说明他认为Tom偷的东西太不值钱了。故C正确。
