Vickers was a very stingy man. He hated spending money. Wherever he had to buy something, he always wanted to pay less money, even for the cheapest things. If he wanted to buy a bottle of milk, for example, and the shopkeeper asked for $2, Vickers would say, “ Make it $1.9, and I will take it.” Although the shopkeepers didn’t like Vickers at all, sometimes they had to agree with him because they wanted to make money. In this way, Vickers saved a few cents here and a few cents there, and by the end of the year, he had saved several dollars. One day, he had a bad toothache, and went to see the dentist. The dentist looked at the tooth and said, “ This tooth must be pulled out.” “ So how much should I pay for it?” Vickers asked. “ Forty dollars at least.” The dentist answered. “Forty dollars! That is too expensive. How long will it take you to pull it out?” he asked. “ About twenty minutes.” The dentist said. Vickers couldn’t believe what he heard just now, “ Forty dollars for twenty minutes. That’s just robbery(抢劫).” The dentist smiled and said, “ If you think so, I’ll spend half an hour on that. Do you agree?” “Ok, but I will pay 35 dollars only.” He answered happily. 66The word stingy means __________ A 吝啬的 B刻薄的 C 贫穷的 D暴躁的 67The shopkeepers __________ A gave Vickers more than he wanted.
