Sometimes it is impossible to deliver all the mail that arrives at
the post office. Perhaps there is an inadequate or illegible address
and there is no return address. The post office cannot just throw the
mail away, so it becomes "dead mail." Dead mail is sent to one of
the U.S. Postal Service's dead mail offices in Atlanta, New York,
Philadelphia, St. Paul, and San Francisco. Seventy-five million pieces
of mail can end up in these offices in one year.
The staff of the dead mail offices has a variety of ways to deal
with all of these pieces of dead mail. First of all, they look for clues
that can help them deliver the mail; they open packages in the hope
that something inside will show where the package came from or is
going to. Dead mail will also be listed on a computer so that people
can call in and check to see if a missing item is there.
However, all of this mail cannot simply be stored forever, there
is just too much of it. When a lot of dead mail has piled up, the
dead mail offices hold public auctions. Every three months, the
public is invited to the offices and bins containing items found in
dead mail packages are sold to the highest bidder.
Q: Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a way to deal with
dead mail?
(A) To search for clues.
(B) To throw dead mail away.
(C) To open dead mail.
(D) To list dead mail on a computer.
