Even though they were written 150 years ago, Alexander Dumas' action novels still excite millions of readers around the world, in close to a hundred languages.
Dumas' two most famous stories, The Three Musketeers and The Count of Monte Cristo, have inspired more than 100 films. His 1848 novel, The Man In the Iron Mask, was recently made into a movie. In this movie, Leonardo Di Caprio played both King Louis XIV and his twin brother Philippe.
Few people know, however, that the author was the grandson of a Haitian slave. Even fewer people know that Dumas' father rose rapidly from a soldier to a general in the French Army before he was 31. The general died young, leaving Alexander penniless. But Dumas overcame poverty, the lack of formal education, and the hardship of racism to become one of the world's most popular writers.
Dumas' life sometimes was just like his action novels. He participated in three revolutions and fought with people when he was insulted. After making a fortune by writing novels, he built a mansion outside Paris and kept it open to starving artists, friends, and even strangers. Luckily for his fans, the mansion has recently been restored and opened to the public.
1．Which of the following statements about Alexander Dumas is NOT TRUE?
[ ]
A．He was a victim of racism.
B．He was well-educated.
C．He was the son of a general.
D．He was the grandson of a slave.
2．Alexander Dumas' novels ________.
[ ]
A．have lasted for less than 100 years
B．have been translated into more than 100 languages
C．have not been well received until recently
D．have fascinated readers for many years
3．We may infer from the article that Dumas ________.
[ ]
A．did not lead a colorful life
B．was a man who kept money to himself
C．was a generous and kind-hearted man
D．was a peace-loving man

Often a prize is awarded to just one person, but not always. Sometimes a prize is shared. It may be awarded to two or more people who have worked together to reach a goal. Since the Nobel Prizes are international prizes, scientists, inventors, writers, and diplomats from all countries may receive a prize. Sometimes, two people from countries with different political views may even share a prize. An example of this is the 1973 Peace Prize, which was awarded to Henry Kissinger of the United States and to Le Due Tho of North Vietnam for the Vietnam peace negotiations. It is also sometimes true that a prize is not given. If there is not outstanding achievement in one of the five areas, no prize is given in that area. In 1972, for example, no Nobel peace prize was given.
Someone must decide whether or not to give an award. The process of nominating and choosing Nobel Prize winners have two parts. First, nominations, or recommendations, of people who might deserve a Nobel Prize, are made. The nominations in physics and chemistry are made by the Royal Academy of Science in Stockholm. The nominations in medicine or physiology are made by the Caroline Medical Institute, which is also in Stockholm. The Swedish Academy, along with the French and Spanish Academies, makes nominations in literature. The peace prize nominations are made by a committee of the Norwegian government. Many nominations are made in each area. Nominations from these groups begin the process of choosing the Nobel Prize winners.
The second part of the process of choosing Nobel Prize winners is to decide which of the nominees deserves the award in each area. This decision is made by the Nobel Foundation in Stockholm. The Foundation may decide to give the awards to an individual or to several people in each area. Or the Foundation may decide not to give a prize at all in any area.
1. A Nobel Prize is given in the form of ________.
A. a large sum of money
B. a diploma and a gold medal
C. a large amount of money together with a gold medal and a diploma
D. a prize certificate
2. The 1973 Peace Prize was awarded to ________.
A. two persons B. Henry Kissinger
C. Le Due Tho D. two individuals from different countries
3. Sometimes no prize is awarded when ________.
A. there is no remarkable achievement in that area
B. there is no suitable nomination
C. there is a war
D. there is financial shortage
4. The decision of literature prize winner is made by ________.
A. the Swedish Academy and the French and Spanish Academies

C. a committee for the Norwegian government
D. the Royal Academy of Science in Stockholm
