     To help Miss K，Waylon decided to take the pig he'd raised and auction（拍賣） it off at the county fair and donate（捐贈(zèng)） all the money—but after several people heard about his unselfishness，the auction took a very unexpected turn.
     The boy had emailed his situation to several companies who would be buying—hoping they would bid（出價(jià)） higher than the usual price of S3-to-4 per pound.His plan worked.When the bidding kicked off，the price jumped to ﹩11 but then one of the biddens，Dan，had an idea and struck a deal with his competition.He won the bidding on the pig then he donated it back to be auctioned again.The second winner bought it for ﹩10 a pound，but then he gave it back，too.
     Finally，a third competitor，Dave Moll，was free to buy—then，he，too，unexpectedly donated the pig back —for a third time.Dave Moll，who is Waylon's father's employer，said，"I hadn't planned to spend that much money or give the pig back.But that's what the people ahead of me did，and I felt like it was the right thing to do，so I did."
     The pig was finally bought and sold a fourth time for ﹩5.50 per pound，meaning that Waylon managed to raise﹩10.070 for his teacher's charity."I did not see that happening，" Waylon said."Usually they just sell it once!My dream got bigger and bigger every time they said，'Give it back.""
     "I'm so proud of him，" Miss K said. "He doesn't know the influence that he is having.Someday he will."

  B．To tell them how good the pig was.
  C．To ask them if they would buy the pig.
  D．To tell them where the auction would be held.
  （3）What does the underlined phrase "struck a deal"in paragraph 4 mean？

  
  A．Broke a deal.
  B．Reached an agreement.
  C．Went on strike.
