问题     It is interesting to reflect how we judge people by the clothes they wear. Long hair and patched blue jeans? A student, we say to ourselves instantly, and not living at home either, or he wouldn’t be going about with those holes in his jeans. A graceful lady in a close-fitting dress, carefully cut nails and earrings? Must be a foreigner, we think, English woman of that age don’t dress so smartly, and she probably has money, too, those shoes weren’t bought in a chain store. And that man walking along the pavement over there? Well-tailored suit, hat just at the right angle? A businessman, of course, and undoubtedly English. Why English? Well, it’s raining, isn’t it? Only an Englishman would carry his treasure umbrella, still perfectly rolled, in the rain.     I once read of a journalist who went into an extremely expensive department store dressed in her shabby clothes. She was eyed with suspicion as she examined the goods on display. When she finally decided on a small purchase, she said she had forgotten to bring enough money with her and could she pay by cheque. The assistant politely told her that cheques were not accepted for goods of 2 or under. The next day she went back, dressed to kill, smelling of expensive perfume. She selected an even cheaper article, told the same story and her cheque was accepted without question. It only goes to show how easily we are impressed by clothes. I wonder if Stone Age Man selected his woman by the quality of the bearskin she was wearing?
Why do we suppose that the "student in jeans" is not living at home? Because his______.
选项 A、clothes are uncared for
B、clothes are badly mended
C、jeans need mending
D、hair needs cutting
答案C
解析 这是一道细节题。即使我们不知道“patched”意思是“打补丁的”，我们可以从“or he wouldn’t be going about with those holes in his jeans”中的“holes”判断出来，这句话意思是“否则的话，他也不会穿着这些有洞的牛仔裤到处乱晃”。再结合常识，如果牛仔裤到处是洞，没有补好，可推断他没住在家里。因此选C。
