三、 阅读理解
18. Pride and Prejudice for the Modern Woman
Let us imagine how Pride and Prejudice,Jane Austen’s most famous work,might be updated,200 years on.
Austen’s popularity is rooted in her intelligence.But today she would certainly have had a very different life,as would her characters.Here’s my own suggestion...
It is a truth finally and universally acknowledged that a single woman with brains deserves to have equal opportunities to men,however disadvantaged she may feel by sexism.
“My dear husband,”said his hopeful wife one day,“have you heard that the local store,standing empty for so long,is taken over by a bright young businesswoman?”
Her dull and indifferent (漠不关心的) husband replied that he had not. “But it is,it is,”she replied excitedly. Mr Dull-Husband made no reply.
“Don’t you want to know her plans?”she cried with some impatience. “Well,clearly you think it matters to your silly little head...so I’d better listen.”
“Well,my dear,the rumour (传言) is that she has already set up a string of successful businesses in northern England,though how a woman can know anything about that is beyond me.She will move in herself next month.”
“What is her name?” “Bingley.”
“Is she married or single?”
“What a question!And none of your business.But her coming will be a fine thing for our five boys.” “How so?How can it possibly affect them?”
“My dear love:those lazy boys need something to wake them up.There are bound to be jobs going.” “Is that her point in settling here?Surely as a woman she has simply taken a fancy to the place.” “Nonsense,my love,how little you’ve noticed the world has changed.She’s got a first-rate degree and some sort of business qualification,I’m told.She surely needs one of our boys!Perhaps you might give her a call.”
29.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A.Austen was born 200 years ago. B.Austen rewrote Pride and Prejudice. C.Austen’s success lies in her wisdom. D.Austen’s updated work gains popularity.
30.The underlined part in the passage suggests that Mrs Bennet . A.had mixed feelings of admiration and surprise about Bingley B.felt kind of worried and doubtful about Bingley C.was extremely anxious to meet Bingley D.had a great curiosity about Bingley
31.In the eyes of Mrs Bennet,Bingley surely needed one of their boys to . A.get married to B.work for her C.help her move in D.take over her store
32.What does the author intend to tell us?
A.Women with brains can also be as successful as men. B.Women have to pay a high price for success. C.A judgment must be made free from prejudice. D.Sex discrimination still exists nowadays.
参考答案:
C A B D
29.细节理解题。从“Austen’s popularity is rooted in her intelligence.”可知她的成功是由于她的智慧,故选C项。从文章的开头可知,是将《傲慢与偏见》的背景更新至200年后,并不是说简·奥斯汀在200年前
3 / 4
出生的,排除A项;文章的开头提到,我们设想更新《傲慢与偏见》而不是作者重新写这本书,排除B项;D项信息未提及。
30.推理判断题。本句的含义为“一位女士竟然熟知那样的事情是我所不能理解的”,并且前文提到宾利非常成功,故画线部分暗含的意思是贝内特夫人对宾利的成功既钦佩又惊讶。
31.细节理解题。从“But her coming will be a fine thing for our five boys.”及“There are bound to be jobs going.”和“She surely needs one of our boys!”可知,在贝内特夫人看来,宾利肯定需要她的某个孩子为她工作,故选B项。
32.主旨大意题。从“...however disadvantaged she may feel by sexism.”及最后一段的内容“尽管她非常成功,但是她的薪水和奖金比她的男同事要少,而且在商业领域担任领导职务的时间要短些”可知,作者想要告诉我们的是即使到了现在,仍存在性别歧视,故选D项。
