A (2018·浙江卷·A)
In 1812, the year Charles Dickens was born, there were 66 novels published
in Britain. People had been writing novels for a century - most experts date the
first novel to Robinson Crusoe in 1719 - but nobody wanted to do it professionally.
The steampowered printing press was still in its early stages; the literacy (识
字) rate in England was under 50%. Many works of fiction appeared without the
names of the authors, often with something like “By a lady.” Novels, for the
most part, were looked upon as silly, immoral or just plain bad.
In 1870, when Dickens died, the world mourned him as its first professional
writer and publisher, famous and beloved, who had led an explosion in both the
publication of novels and their readership and whose characters - from Oliver
Twist to Tiny Tim - were held up as moral touchstones. Today Dickens' greatness
is unchallenged. Removing him from the pantheon(名人堂) of English literature
would make about as much sense as the Louvre selling off the Mona Lisa.
How did Dickens get to the top? For all the feelings readers attach to stories,
literature is a numbers game, and the test of time is extremely difficult to pass.
Some 60,000 novels were published during the Victorian age, from 1837 to 1901;
today a casual reader might be able to name a half dozen of them. It's partly true
that Dickens' style of writing attracted audiences from all walks of life. It's partly
that his writings rode a wave of social, political and scientific progress. But it's
also that he rewrote the culture of literature and put himself at the center. No one
will ever know what mix of talent,ambition,energy and luck made Dickens such
a distinguished writer. But as the 200th anniversary of his birth approaches, it
2/26
is possible - and important for our own culture - to understand how he made
himself a lasting one.

D [推理判断题。根据第二段最后一句“Removing him from the pantheon
(名人堂) of English literature would make about as much sense as the Louvre selling

B (2016·全国卷Ⅰ·A)
You probably know who Marie Curie was, but you may not have heard of
Rachel Carson. Of the outstanding ladies listed below, who do you think was the
most important woman of the past 100 years?
Jane Addams (1860-1935)
Anyone who has ever been helped by a social worker has Jane Addams to
thank. Addams helped the poor and worked for peace. She encouraged a sense
of community(社区) by creating shelters and promoting education and services for
people in need. In 1931, Addams became the first American woman to win the
Nobel Peace Prize.
Rachel Carson (1907-1964)
If it weren't for Rachel Carson, the environmental movement might not exist
today. Her popular 1962 book Silent Spring raised awareness of the dangers of
pollution and the harmful effects of chemicals on humans and on the world's lakes
and oceans.
Sandra Day O'Connor (1930-present)
When Sandra Day O'Connor finished third in her class at Stanford Law School,
in 1952, she could not find work at a law firm because she was a woman. She
became an Arizona state senator (参议员) and, in 1981, the first woman to join
the U. S. Supreme Court. O'Connor gave the deciding vote in many important
cases during her 24 years on the top court.
Rosa Parks (1913-2005)
On December 1, 1955, in Montgomery, Alabama, Rosa Parks would not give
up her seat on a bus to a white passenger. Her simple act landed Parks in prison.
But it also set off the Montgomery bus boycott. It lasted for more than a year,
and kicked off the civilrights movement. “The only tired I was, was tired of
giving in,” said Parks.

5.What was the reason for O'Connor's being rejected by the law firm?
A.Her lack of proper training in law.

C [细节理解题。根据 Sandra Day O'Connor 下的第一句“When Sandra
Day O'Connor finished third in her class at Stanford Law School ...”可知,她
没能在法律事务所找到工作,是因为她是一名女性,这与 C 项“对于女性的歧
视”相符,故选 C 项。]
