Every night she listened to her father going around the house, locking the doors and windows. She listened: the back door closed; she could hear the fastener of the kitchen window’s click, and the restless pad of his feet going back to try the front door. It wasn’t only the outside doors he locked; he locked the empty kitchen too. He was looking something out, but obviously it was something capable of entering into his first defenses. He raised his second line all the way up to bed.
In fourteen years, she thought unhappily, the house will be his; he had paid twenty-five pounds down and the rest he was paying month by month as rent. "Of course," he was in the habit of saying, "I’ve improved the property." "Yes," he repeated, "I’ve improved the property," looking around for a nail to drive in, a weed to uproot. It was more than a sense of property; it was a sense of honesty. Some people who bought their homes through the society let them go to rack and ruin and then cleared out.
She stood with her ear against the wall, a small, dark, angry, immature figure. There was no more to be heard from the other room; but in her inner ear she still heard the footsteps of a property owner, the tap-tap of a hammer, the scrape of a spade, the whistle of radiator steam, a key turning, a bolt pushed home, the little busy sounds of men building barriers. She stood planning.
All of the following are true EXCEPT that______.
选项
A、the father built his defenses carefully
B、some property owners let their homes go worse
C、the daughter was thin and very young
D、the father punished the girl when she was young
答案
D
解析
细节题。根据第二段最后一句话“Some people who bought their homes through thesociety let them go to rack and ruin and then cleared out.”可知,有些房主会毁坏房子。根据最后一段第一句话“She stood with her ear against the wall,a small,dark,angry, immature figure.”可推出,女儿很瘦小,年纪也比较小。根据最后一段倒数第二句话“the little busy sounds of menbuilding barriers”可知,他修建栅栏很用心。由此可推出,A、B和C选项均为文章细节内容。本题选不正确选项,因此正确答案是D选项。
