(40 points)Text 1 Weve all had cases where weve waited just a bit too long to pay an electric bill or speeding ticket. But one man, from California by reasonable assumption, who goes by “Dave”, recently took procrastination (拖延) one step further, by paying a parking ticket almost a half-century after it was given.In December 2018, the Minersville Police Department in Pennsylvania received a letter in the mail. Whoever wrote the letter decided it was best to keep his name somewhat unknown, so he put the return address as “Wayward Road, Anytown California” under the name “Feeling guilty”.When the officers opened the envelope, they found a brief letter, along with a $5 bill, and a parking ticket dating all the way back to 1974. The note read, “Dear PD, Ive been carrying this ticket around for 40 plus years always intending to pay. Forgive me if I dont give you my info. With respect, Dave.”Even though the initial parking ticket was only for $2, “Dave” must have felt awfully guilty because he left 150 percent, or $3, in interest.Michael Combs, the Police Chief of the Minersville Police Department, stated in an interview that the same ticket would cost about $20 if it were given today. Combs went on to share that the original ticket from 1974 was given to a vehicle that had an Ohio license plate.Because there was no system for tracking tickets given to out-of-state cars back then, “Dave” could have gotten away with never paying the $2 fine. But apparently, guilt got the best of him, and he decided to finally cough up the money more than 40 years past its due date.1、How much do we know about “Dave”?AHe lives in Wayward Road, Anytown California.BThe police are trying to find out more about him.CHis car probably came from Ohio at that time.D“Dave” is of course the mans real name indeed.2、Why didnt “Dave” pay for the parking ticket until recently?AHe completely forgot about it in the past 44 years.BHe didnt find it until almost half a century later.CHe failed to find out who he should pay the money to.DHe didnt pay for it just because of procrastination.3、What drove “Dave” to pay for the parking
