【題目】根據(jù)短文理解,選擇正確答案。
The wind tried pushing Colin to the ground. It felt as if Colin's news-bag was full of potatoes.
Maybe it had to do with the news Dad read before Colin left. The morning headlines(標(biāo)題)were full of the usual sad stories.
“No good news again!” Dad said.
Car accidents! House burns! Storm damage(損害)!
Colin moved quickly from house to house leaving papers in the mailbox. He wished he could bring only good news to his family, also to his friendly neighbours. “How could I make things better for everyone?” he wondered.
Colin noticed Alice coming. She only had one real eye. The other was made of glass. He liked Alice even if many others laughed at her. He didn't realize how much it helped her, having a friend like Colin.
Each time Colin left a paper by a customer's door, he thought, “How could I make some good news?”
Colin gave his usual cheerful “Hi” to everyone on his way. His smile was like the rising sun.
Someone was crying and he ran to where a little boy had fallen and hurt his leg. Colin calmed him down until the boy's mother arrived.
“I'm glad you're my paperboy,” she told Colin.
He continued on his way, but he didn't feel tired. It was fun doing what he usually did—helping others.
He raced up the street to his last customer. Mrs. Williams saw Colin coming and had peanut butter cookies as a treat for her favourite paperboy. She wondered why such a lively boy always had time to chat with an old lady.
Colin's own treat for his customers came from his heart. He did have much good news to share, even if he didn't realize it. His smile and polite manners brought cheering-up news to all his customers.

A.His news-bag was too heavy.
B.He had heard of many sad stories.
C.His dad didn't like his job as a paperboy.
