问题 What is NOT missing in Mary’s briefcase?
  
W: Sorry, I’m late, James.
M: It’s all right, Mary. Where have you been?
W: At the police station.
M: Where?
W: At the police station. I’ve lost my briefcase.
M: Oh, no! What happened? Was there anything important in it?
W: Yes! My cheque book, all the papers I need for work, my appointment book (Q8).
M: Ah! That’s terrible! How did you lose your briefcase?
W: Well, as you know, I was with my client at a meeting all morning (Q9) and we had lunch together, after lunch I went shopping, and when I wanted to buy something I couldn’t find my cheque book, then I remembered that was in my briefcase and my briefcase was in my car.
M: So you went back to your car?
W: Yes, I went back to my car. No briefcase! But luckily my laptop was there (Q8).
M: And then you went to the police?
W: Not immediately. Before I went to the police station, I called my client’s office. No luck. They said the briefcase wasn’t there.
M: Excuse me! I’ve got a phone call. Yes, yes, there is. Mary Hopkins. Oh, really? I’ll tell her. It was very kind of you to call. Bye!
W: Who was that?
M: That was the manager of the River Sun Restaurant. Just after lunch today, he found a briefcase under a table, when he opened the case, he found a lot of papers, he said they had the name of our company on them, and he found a cheque book with the name of Hopkins on it— M. Hopkins—M for Mary (Q10).
W: Ah! Thank god!

选项 A、The papers inside had the company’s name.
B、The briefcase was found in the restaurant.
C、The restaurant manager telephoned James.
D、The cheque book inside bore her name.

答案D

解析 推理题。支票本上写着M.Hopkins,M.是Mary的缩写(he found a checkbook with the name of Hopkins on it— M.Hopkins— M.for Mary),所以Mary确定那个手提箱是她的,故选项D正确。
