谁会这道题：阅读理解 The
| 阅读理解 The rumors had been spreading for months but it still came as a shock when the hospital would be closing.It had served this poor neighborhood for nearly 100 years but it would close because of the health care crisis. The day after the announcement co-workers found out that pretzels(椒盐饼干) had been eliminated . Soft pretzels are the lifeblood of this city.So losing access to soft pretzels is no small matter. A week later,I decided to cheer up my co-workers by picking up some soft pretzels at a local store. I arrived just as it opened so I was the only customer.But I only had $6 in my wallet.I was working inside a large office at the hospital and knew I'd need more than the half dozen pretzels my six dollars would buy.A man's voice interrupted my thoughts."Can I help you?" I said,"I only have $6.I'm not sure how many pretzels I need.You see,I work at a hospital and it's closing and they stopped selling pretzels." The man's smile disappeared."What hospital?" "Oh, Northeastern Hospital." The guy looked deeply shocked."I used to sell medical supplies and that was one of my hospitals." Then he turned around and grabbed a box of 25 pretzels and slid them across the counter. I was surprised by his generosity and started to reach for my wallet,"Oh I can pay.Please let me … The guy smiled,"Just tell them Joe Sullivan said to do something nice for someone else." And so that day everyone in medical records was treated to a soft pretzel.Word spread fast as people came asking,"Is it really true?" It was as if I'd carried in a box of gold.It mattered to them that a stranger cared. 1.The underlined word "eliminated" in Paragraph 2 means _____.
