Ⅳ. 阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分） （A) ［2010巢湖高一检测］ About a year ago, I went to stay at a Detroit hotel. I didn’t want to carry too much money with me, so I asked the desk clerk（服务员） to put a hundred-dollar bill in the safe(保险箱) for me. The next morning, however, the clerk said he knew nothing about my money. I didn’t have any proof that I had given the man the money. There was nothing I could do but go to the nearest lawyer. The lawyer advised me to return to the hotel with him and give another hundred-dollar bill to the clerk. This I did. An hour later, I went back to the desk and asked for my money.
