原文+答案解析

036.
Mrs. Wilson invited some friends for lunch. She was eager to try a new way of cooking a fish dish, and she was very pleased with herself when the dish was ready. Because the dish was hot, she put it near the window to cool for a few minutes. When she came back for it, she was surprised to find the neighbor's cat by the dish. Fortunately, she came in time to stop the cat. That afternoon was a great success and they talked and laughed till four o'clock. At the end of the afternoon, when she was alone again, she felt tired but happy. She was sitting near the window when she was frightened to see her neighbor carrying the cat, dead. What had happened to her friend's cat? She at once called the family doctor. He told her to phone each of her visitors to meet him. Just as she sat down, the telephone rang. It was her neighbor, "My cat was killed by a car."
