Question 1 is based on the news report you have just heard.

听力原文

    (1) [A waiter has returned a check worth nearly $424,000 to a retired social worker who lost it.] The waiter found a bank envelope while cleaning off a table last Saturday at a restaurant. He ran outside, but the customer was gone. He opened the envelope and got a shock. After an unsuccessful search, the restaurant’s owner called the Daily News for help. The relieved customer was reunited with her check on Wednesday. It contained money from her apartment sale, already planned for a down payment on a new home. The customer did not tip the waiter after her meal. (2) [She tried to give him money later on, but he graciously declined.] The waiter, who’s working his way through school, did accept the customer’s apology and gratitude and said he was happy to have helped her.

1. What does the news report say about the waiter? （关于这位服务员，这篇新闻说了什么？）

解析：D。四个选项均为He的行为动作，听音时应多留意男士所遇到的情况。录音开头提到，服务员将高额支票还给了失主，也就是说他做了一件好事，因此D选项符合题意。

错项排除：录音中提到了买房，但说的是这位顾客打算用出售公寓所得的钱来付一套新房的首付款，即顾客要买房，并没有说服务员想要买房，故A项错误。做题时应注意B项中shock在不同语境下的具体含义，录音中提到了shock（惊吓），但说的是服务员在打开信封后，看到一张巨额支票而吓了一跳，并不是说他受到了惊吓，故B项错误。录音中提到，这名顾客在就餐后遗落了一个信封，里面有一张巨额支票，因此遗失了一大笔钱的是顾客，而不是服务员，故C项错误。
