My mother-in-law, Dorothy, is showing me the red notebook that’s almost as precious to her as my husband’s baby pictures. Inside the notebook is a list of the books she has read since 2007. For some people waking up in the middle of the night is a terrible thing. But for my mother-in-law, that time is a gift. At 87, she is getting the education she never had by working her way through great literature. She has now read close to 100 books, including every single novel by Anthony Trollope, Charles Dickens, Jane Austen, Edith Wharton, Henry James and Thomas Mann.
My mother-in-law discusses her passion with the enthusiasm of a young girl, although she can also be a very tough critic, writing “VG’ for “ very good” in the margins next to her favorites. So far, only a handful of books have received the top prize.
Born in Ridgefield, Conn, Dorothy was the youngest daughter of an Italian gardener. She taught herself English by reading The New York Times. Eager to come to Manhattan, she became a nurse, married a dentist and spent the next several decades keeping the house and raising a family. In her later years, she put her nursing skills to good use by taking care of my father-in-law, who had lung cancer. There were many trips to the emergency room in the middle of the night and then a long hospital stay. She stayed awake to watch over him for 15 hours a day. Always a light sleeper, she developed sleeplessness as a result of the stress.
It worsened after he died. Deeply sad and lonely for the first time in her life, she began waking up around 2am. Julian and Sylvia, the elderly couple next door suggest she read literature. And so Julian, a great lover of literature, became her “professor”, providing books from his large library. Suddenly the terrifying hole turned onto a world of amazing characters.
Why is Dorothy considered a tough critic?
A. Because no books are inspiring enough in her eyes.
B. Because only a few books are thought highly of by her.
C. Because she only reads books by famous writers.
D. Because she finds fault with every book she reads.
It can be inferred from the passage that _____.
A. the books Dorothy has read were bought by her husband.
B. the couple next door are college professors.
C. the author loves literature too.
D. Dorothy was a great wife.
The underlined part “the terrifying hole” in the last paragraph refers to _____.
A. the frightening death
B. Dorothy’s lack of education
C. waking up in the middle of the night
D. a hole in a book that Dorothy read
What helped Dorothy get over the sadness and loneliness of losing her husband?
A. Living with her son.
B. Reading literature.
C. Seeing her son’s baby pictures.
D. Talking with neighbors.

科目:高中英語 來源:2015屆江蘇省宿遷市高二上學(xué)期期中考試英語試卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解
The grandfather of Nell Trent owns a shop of odds and ends. He wants to make sure his grandfather is provided for when he dies. His memory of his daughter’s suffering and early death gives him a fear of poverty. Gambling(賭博) becomes an addiction for Nell’s grandfather, which results in his financial and physical ruin. Nell and her grandfather flee from their home and begin a journey that has no destination. For Nell, all she wants is a peaceful existence with enough to live on.
They come across many interesting people on their travels and often meet with the kindness of strangers. Yet, in a colorful world, they also face the reality of the Industrial Revolution. From simple villages and fields of flowers, they go into a dirty city full of mass unemployment and plague (瘟疫) victims --- where children die of starvation and many are abandoned.
The story isn’t only about Nell and her grandfather, but also the people who are connected to them directly or indirectly. There is Richard Swiveller, a careless young man who is a friend of Nell’s older brother, who wants Swiveller to marry Nell for the fortune he thinks she has. Daniel Quilp is a cruel moneylender, who manages to fool the grandfather into borrowing large sums of money from him. There is honest Kit, a boy employed at the shop, who becomes a victim even though he never harms other people. Kit desires to help Nell, whom he considers an angel that has always inspired the best in him. The mysterious Bevis Marks, who is a generous customer to some people and an enemy to others, also has his own reasons for looking after Nell and her grandfather.
Unlike Dickens’ other works, The Old Curiosity Shop is a book of contrasts: the purity of Nell compared to the dishonesty of Quilp, fresh air and scenic villages to the polluted, stone-covered city, etc. Even people’s reaction to the book presented a cruel contrast. At first, Nell Trent was praised and considered Dickens’ best character. Later, she was criticized by many well-known people like Oscar Wilde. While characters in Dickens’ other books are moving towards a better future, Nell and her grandfather are fleeing for their life and their story is moving towards a sad ending.
1.We can infer from the first two paragraphs that ___________.
A. Nell’s mother died young because of poverty
B. Nell’s grandfather made a fortune by gambling
C. Nell died of starvation during her journey
D. Nell had no one to turn to on her travels
2.What’s the third paragraph mainly about?
A. The plot (情節(jié)) of the story. B. The characters in the story.
C. The background of the story. D. The inspiration behind the story.
3.The Old Curiosity Shop is different from Dickens’ other works because it ___________.
A. is full of contrasts B. has a surprise ending
C. reflects Dickens’ own life D. is set in the Industrial Revolution
