答案与解析
语篇解读作者真诚与优质的服务不仅帮自己找回了丢失的钱夹，而且还得到了双倍的小费，这也鼓舞了作者更好地为顾客服务。

1．C由装有80美元小费和一张照片可知作者把自己的钱包(wallet)遗失在他工作的餐馆里了。

后文也提到了wallet。

2．A作者不能失去(lose)自己一天的报酬。

3．D第一段提到他在一家餐馆工作，因此此处是说他工作的餐馆(restaurant)已经关门了。

4．B因为已关门没方法找，所以作者告诉自己今晚要尽量不再想(forget)这件事情。

5．B本文第一句提到along, busyday，再根据后文中的Iwasalready__6__ fivetablesthere, whena ...可知那天作者更忙(busier)。

6．C作者是餐馆的服务员，他正在侍候(waiton)五张桌子的客人。

7．C此时一对白发的夫妇坐在了作者的服务区。

可以从后文提到的them或thecouple找到答案。

8．Atired“疲倦的〞，见第9题解析。

9．D无论有多累(tired)，作者都会尽力给顾客提供最好的服务(service)。

10．B从后文知道那对夫妇给了作者小费，所以作者感谢(thanked)他们的友好行为。

11．B等作者收起小费时，那对夫妇已经离开桌子(table)了。

12．C作者又数(counted)了一遍小费，竟然有四十美元。

13．A意识到小费给错了之后，作者转身(turnedaround)去寻找那对夫妇。

14．D此处表示作者在寻找那对夫妇未果的情况下最后(finally)决定去问女招待。

15．D作者问女招待是否见到刚刚坐在他服务区域的那对老年(aged)夫妇离去。

前文中的white­haired有提示。

16．C女招待说“昨天他们拾到了(pickedup)你的钱包〞。

17．C因为作者当时很忙(busy)，那对老夫妇让女招待把钱包转交给作者。

18．Abesatisfiedwith“对……感到满意〞，符合句意。

19．B女招待说“顺便说一句，他们对你的服务很满意(satisfied)，给了你两倍的小费(tip)。

〞
20．B作者很感动，下决心今后会尽自己所能服务(serve)顾客。
