阅读下列短文,从[A)、[B]、[C]三个选项中选择一个正确答案。
Dear Sir,
Just over six months ago, I saw an advertisement in a morning newspaper for a set of the complete works (全集) of William Shakespeare: Your company offered this set at a low price: 15 pounds and 50 pence. I had wanted a set of Shakespeare’s plays and poems for some time, so I sent for them.
Two weeks later, the books arrived, together with a set of the works of Charles Dickens which I had not wanted. So I returned the Dickens’ books to you. Two more weeks passed. Then there arrived a second set of the works of Shakespeare, the same set of Dickens’ books and a set of the plays of Moliere in French. I do not read French, and they were not useful at all, so I wrote to you. You did not answer that letter. Instead you sent me a bill for 42 pounds and a set of the plays of Schiller in German. I have no room for any more books, and I have no time to read them all.
Please send no more books, no more bills and no more angry letters for payment. Just send one large truck and take all the books away, leaving me only with the one set of the works of Shakespeare for which I have paid.
Yours,
Simon Walker
How much did Simon Walker pay altogether
