I understand there is a two-volume edition of this work.
A、The minister wanted a two-volume edition of the book.
B、The minister wanted another copy of the book.
C、The minister wanted more money.
D、The minister wanted a more expensive book.
【正确答案】:C
【题目解析】:相关内容背景为销售经理为了贿赂部长,在送给部长的一书中夹了两万美元。部长看过了书的内容后说:“据我所知,此书有两巻本的版本。”原句为This man examined its content,then said:I understand there is a...book."句中的two-volume为双关语,表面指书的卷数,实际上是暗示销售经理再加两万美元,也就是C项表达的含义。答案为C。
