答案与解析
【语篇解读】 Soliman通过为妈妈的商店运家具,了解到许多人有不想要的东西。
于是他有了一个想法——通过运送别人不想要的东西来挣钱。
28.答案 B
解析 细节理解题。
根据第二段中的“Afteryearsofdeliveringfurnitureforhismother’sstore,heknewmanypeoplehadthingstheywantedtogetridof.”可知,Soliman在为母亲的商店运送家具之后,他了解到很多人有他们不想要的东西。

根据第二段的“Ifheborrowedhismom’struck,hecouldmakealittlemoneybycarryingawaytheirgarbage.”可知,当他知道很多人都有不想要的东西时,他便想到如果他借妈妈的卡车来运走这些不想要的东西,他就可以挣到钱。

根据尾段“Theyreducedthecostofunloadingbyrecyclingmetalsandelectronics.”可知,他们通过循环利用金属和电子设备来减少卸载的费用。
31.答案 D
