2．［考点］推理判断题

【精析】D 根据第二段第二、三句“Finally he got a wallet and a watch.When he was removing the watch chain，Coolidge spoke...”可知，窃贼发现了一个钱包和一块手表，而当他正在取下表链时，Coolidge才开始说话。由此可推知，窃贼要偷的是钱包和表链。故选D。

3．［考点］词语理解题

【精析】C 根据第二段第五、六句“＇I don＇t mean the watch and chain， only the charm. Take it near the window and read what is engraved on the back of it，＇the President said.”可推知，charm是附在表链上而且能在上面刻字的一个小物他四地项中项上商用具抗近准

【精析】B根据第二段倒数第二句“Then he counted out ＄32 and said it was a loan．”可知，总统给了窃贼32美元。故选B。

5．［考点］推理判断题

【精析】A 根据第一段第一句“...who confronted him and helped him escape.”和第二段最后一句“He then told the thief that there probably would be a Secret Service agent patrolling the hotel corridor and asked if an escape could be made by going back along the hotel ledge.”可知，Coolidge并没有向特工处举报这个窃贼，而是帮他逃走了。由此可推知，Coolidge为窃贼保守了秘密，所以A项正确，D项错误。B项与文章内容不符；根据第二段倒数第二、三句“Coolidge added up the room rate and two rail tickets back to the campus. Then he counted out...”可知，Coolidge 把房费和两张回学校的火车票费用加起来计算，然后把钱给了这个窃贼，所以C项错误。故选A。
