A lawyer friend of mine has devoted herself to the service of humanity. Her special area is called "public interest law". Many other lawyers represent only clients who can pay high fees. All lawyers have had expensive and highly specialized training, and they work long, difficult hours for the money they earn. But what happens to people who need legal help and cannot afford to pay these lawyers’ fee?
Public interest lawyers fill this need. Patricia, like other public interest lawyers, earns a salary much below what some lawyers can earn. Because she is willing to take less money, her clients have the help need, even if they can pay nothing at all, Some clients need legal help because stores have cheated them with faulty merchandise. Others are in unsafe apartments, or are threatened with eviction (being driven) and have no place to go. Their cases are all called "civil" cases. Still others are accused of criminal acts, and seek those public interest lawyers who handle "criminal" cases. These are just a few of the many situations in which the men and women who are public interest lawyers serve to extend justice throughout society.
The word "clients" in this passage means ______.
选项
A、people who can pay high fees to their lawyers
B、people who are very poor and can’t afford to pay their lawyers
C、people who have been cheated by stores or threatened with eviction
D、people who needs and uses legal help from lawyers
答案
D
解析
细节题。本题要求回答“clients在文章中表示什么意思?”根据文章大意,我们不难看出clients指委托人,即需要法律帮助的人。故选D。
