根据对短文的理解选择正确答案。
Scott is not happy. He has no money (钱) left to buy the new toy train he wants. Suddenly, he has an idea! “I'll ask my brother Alan if I can borrow (借) some money. He always has money to lend people.”
Scott meets Alan in his room. “Alan, may I borrow $20 from you to buy myself a new train?”
Alan replies, “I just spend all of my money on Mom's birthday present. I have no money left. You are barking up the wrong tree.”
Scott is very disappointed (失望). He decides to find a job. He goes to many shops, but no one has a job for him. He walks and walks from shop to shop.
Finally, he gets a job selling ice cream and he is very happy. “My feet are tired for walking all day, but I can get enough money for a toy train.”
