The event happened in the early morning in one of the first days when Calvin Coolidge came into power. He and his family were living in the same third-floor suite at the Willard Hotel in Washington that they had moved in several years before. The former President's wife was still living in the White House.
Coolidge awoke to see a stranger go through his clothes, remove a wallet and a watch chain.
Coolidge spoke, "I wish you won't take that."
The thief, gaining his voice, said, "Why?"
"I don't mean the watch and chain, only the charm. Take it near the window and read what is on its back," the President said.
The thief read," Presented to Calvin Coolidge."
"Are you President Coolidge?" he asked.
The President answered "Yes, and the House of Representatives gave me that watch charm. I'm fond of it. It would do you no good. You want money. Let's talk this over."
Holding up the wallet, the young man said in a low voice, "I'll take this and leave everything else."
Coolidge, knowing there was $80 in it, persuaded the young man to sit down and talk. He told the President he and his college roommate had overspent during their holiday and did not have enough money to pay their hotel bill.
Coolidge added up the roommate and two rail tickets back to the college. Then he counted out $32 and said it was a loan.
He then told the young man "There is a guard in the corridor." The young man nodded and left through the same window as he had entered.
What caused the thief to meet the President?
A.He knew the President had lots of money.
B.He knew the President lived in the suite.
C.He wanted to be a rich businessman.
D.He wanted to steal some money.

听力原文: Lee Harvey Oswald, a 24-year-old former Marine, was being transferred from police headquarters to the county jail. The man accused of murdering the US President, John F. Kennedy, has himself been shot dead in a Dallas police station.
The event was being covered live on television, and Americans across the country watched in astonishment as a man -- later identified as Jack Ruby, a Dallas nightclub owner -- stepped forward, drew a gun and shot Mr. Oswald at point-blank range.
An ambulance rushed Mr. Oswald to the Parkland Hospital -- the same hospital which had fought to save President Kennedy's life two days earlier -- but he died within minutes of his arrival.
He was arrested about an hour after the murder, carried out as the President's motor queue passed through the Dealey Plaza in Dallas.
He was initially accused of the murder of a policeman, JD Tippit, who appears to have recognized him and approached him just 45 minutes after the killing of the President. Soon after, Mr. Oswald was also charged with the President's murder.
But, police gave no explanation of how Jack Ruby came to be in the police headquarters. The building had been under heavy guard after several calls making threats against Oswald's life.
Ruby came to Dallas from Chicago 10 years ago. He runs a downtown club, and is said to have links with organised criminals. Police said Ruby had told them, "1 didn't want to be a hero -- I did it for Jacqueline Kennedy. "They said he wanted to spare the president's wife accused of killing her husband.
