I lose so many things that I am sure they just get up and walk. Perhaps I have never admitted it—even to myself, but I am extremely jealous of people who are so orderly that they never lose anything. Most of my friends always seem to have a place for everything and everything is in its place. I hate comparing myself with them. They have special cupboards for tools, hooks to hang things on and drawers to put things in. It is quite impossible for me.
Some things have a terrible habit of disappearing the moment I need them. Pencils and ballpoint pens are never anywhere near the telephone when it rings, no matter how much care I take. Screwdrivers and tin openers always manage to walk into the garden and, as a result, screws remain loose, and tins remain unopened. Boxes of matches move under the radio, and needles disappear every time I want to sew a button on a shirt.
The situation was getting so much out of control that I decided to organize myself. I had a large cupboard put into the kitchen. On the shelves I neatly arranged a number of boxes and tins, the contents of which I clearly printed in ink on the outside. I had one box for pins, another for nails, and a special place for screwdrivers. There was a new address book in one corner so that I could make a note of telephone numbers and addresses. Before this I had always written addresses on bits of paper—which I quickly lost. Soon everything was tidily arranged in its place, from pairs of scissors to cakes of soap and spare lamps. Having made such a sincere attempt to prevent things from running away, I felt very proud of myself. But it was not long before the matches disappeared and the hammer decided to hide itself in the waste-paper basket. I soon got my revenge, however. I had a lock fitted to the cupboard and thus made sure that nothing could escape. This was an admirable solution—until I lost the key to the cupboard.
Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
选项
A、The author’ s things can’t be found when they are needed.
B、When the author needs to take notes, he can’t find his pencils.
C、You can often find screwdrivers and tin openers in the kitchen.
D、Boxes of matches often stay where they should not be.
答案
C
解析
根据第二段前两句“Some things have a terrible habit of disappearing the moment I need them.Pencils and ballpoint pens are never anywhere near the telephone when it rings…”和最后一句“Boxes of matches move under the radio...”可知,作者的一些东西在需要的时候总会消失不见,在他打电话需要记笔记的时候总是找不到铅笔和圆珠笔,火柴盒会跑到收音机下面,所以选项A、B、D均正确。根据第二段三句可知,螺丝刀和开罐器会跑到花园里,而不是厨房里,所以C项错误。故选C。
