Question

【題目】 I never knew anyone who’d grown up in Jackson without being afraid of Mrs. Calloway, our librarian. She ran Jackson’s Carnegie Library absolutely by herself. SILENCE in big black letters was on signs hung everywhere. If she thought you were dressed improperly, she sent you straight back home to change your clothes. I was willing; I would do anything to read.

My mother was not afraid of Mrs. Calloway. She wished me to have my own library card to check out books for myself. She took me in to introduce me. “Eudora is nine years old and has my permission to read any book she wants from the shelves, children or adults,” Mother said.

Mrs. Calloway made her own rules about books. You could not take back a book to the library on the same day you’d taken it out; it made no difference to her that you’d read every word in it and needed another to start. You could take out two books at a time and two only. So two by two, I read library books as fast as I could go, rushing them home in the basket of my bicycle. From the minute I reached our house, I started to read. I knew this was extreme happiness, knew it at the time.

My mother shared this feeling of mine. Now, I think of her as reading so much of the time while doing something else. I remember her reading a magazine while taking the part of the Wolf in a game of “Little Red Riding Hood” with my brother’s two daughters. She’d just look up at the right time, long enough to answer—in character —“The better to eat you with, my dear,” and go back to her place in the magazine article.

【1】

推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段中I never knew anyone who’d grown up in Jackson without being afraid of Mrs. Calloway our librarian.( 我從來沒見過哪個在杰克遜長大的人不害怕我們的圖書管理員卡洛維夫人)以及SILENCE in big black letters was on signs hung everywhere. If she thought you were dressed improperly, she sent you straight back home to change your clothes.(到處都掛著牌子，上面用黑色的大字寫著“肅靜”。如果她認為你穿得不合適，她會直接讓你回家換衣服)可知Mrs. Calloway很嚴(yán)格。故選D。

【2】

詞義猜測題。根據(jù)下文Now, I think of her as reading so much of the time while doing something else.( 現(xiàn)在，我覺得她在做其他事情的同時，也在閱讀)可知作者的媽媽也非常喜歡閱讀，故作者的母親和作者一樣渴望讀書。故劃線短語this feeling指的是“渴望讀書”。故選C。

【3】

推理判斷題。結(jié)合文章主要內(nèi)容可知，作者非常喜愛閱讀，并保持著在圖書館中閱讀和借閱書籍的習(xí)慣，而作者的母親也和作者一樣渴望讀書。故可推測文章可能來自于一份自傳。故選B。
