On Thursday afternoon Mrs. Clarke, dressed for going out, took her handbag with her money and her key in it, pulled the door behind her to lock it and went to the over 60s Club. She always went there on Thursdays. It was a nice outing for an old woman who lived alone.
At six o’clock she came home, let herself in and at once smelt cigarette smoke. Cigarette smoke in her house? How? How? Had someone got in? She checked the back door and the windows. All were locked or fastened, as usual. There was no sign of forced entry.
Over a cup of tea she wondered whether someone might have a key that fitted her front door — “a master key” perhaps. So she stayed at home the following Thursday. Nothing happened. Was anyone watching her movements? On the Thursday after that she went out at her usual time, dressed as usual, but she didn’t go to the club. Instead she took a short cut home again, letting herself in through her garden and the back door. She settled down to wait.
It was just after four o’clock when the front door bell rang. Mrs. Clarke was making a cup of tea at the time. The bell rang again, and then she heard her letter-box being pushed open. With the kettle of boiling water in her hand, she moved quietly towards the front door. A long piece of wire appeared through the letter-box, and then a hand. The wire turned and caught around the handle on the door-lock. Mrs. Clarke raised the kettle and poured the water over the hand. There was a shout outside, and the skin seemed to drop off the fingers like a glove. The wire fell to the floor, the hand was pulled back, and Mrs. Clarke heard the sound of running feet.
1.Mrs. Clarke looked forward to Thursday because ________.
A．she worked at a club on the day
B．she had visitors on Thursday
C．she visited a club on Thursday
D．a special visitor came on Thursday
2.What does the expression “a master key” in Paragraph 3 most probably mean?
A．A key to all the doors.
B．A key only to the woman’s door.
C．A key only its master can use.
D．A key not everyone can use.
3.On the third Thursday Mrs. Clarke went out ________.
A．because she didn’t want to miss the club again
B．to see if the thief was wandering outside
C．to the club but then changed her mind
D．in an attempt to trick the thief
4.The lock on the front door was one which ________.
A．needed a piece of wire to open it
B．could be opened from inside without a key
C．couldn’t be opened without a key
D．used a handle instead of a key
