Whom did the lady first think of to help her out? [br]
The old lady was glad to be back at the block of her flats, but she found that her front door was open. She walked slowly into the hall and noticed at once that all the room doors were open. Looking into the drawing room, she saw a scene of confusion over by her writing desk. It was as clear as daylight then that burglars had forced an entry during the lady’s absence. Her first impulse was to go round all the rooms looking for the thieves, but then she decided that at her age it might be more prudent to have someone with her, so [14B] she went to fetch the porter from his basement. By that time her legs began to tremble, so she sat down and accepted a cup of strong tea, while the porter telephoned the police.
They went through the rooms, being careful to touch nothing, as they did not want to hinder the police in their search for fingerprints. [15A] It seemed as though everything she possessed had been tossed out and turned over and over. At least sorting out the things she should have discarded years ago was being made easier for her. Then a police inspector arrived with a constable and she told them of her discovery of the ransacked flat. The inspector began to look for fingerprints, while the constable checked that the front door locks had not been forced, thereby proving that the burglars had either used skeleton keys or entered over the balcony. There was no trace of fingerprints, but the inspector found a dirty red bag that contained jewellery which the old lady said was not hers. So [17C] their entry into this flat was apparently not the burglar’s first job that day.
选项
A、The things she possessed had been searched inside out.
B、All the rooms had been covered with broken pieces.
C、Some of the rooms were in a mess.
D、Some of the rooms had not been touched.
答案
A
解析
文中提到,女士和守门人小心翼翼地穿过各个房间,她发现她的所有东西都被翻了出来(tossedout),并且被里里外外翻了个遍(turned over and over),由此可知,女士发现她的所有物品都被彻底翻过了(had been searched inside out),故答案为[A]。
