Jane Austen(1775—1817), a British novelist, started writing young and completed six novels in her life. Today Austen's books are more popular than ever. In the last 10 years, five of her six novels have been made into Hollywood films, while her books continue to be best sellers.
Richard Jenkyns, a professor of English at Oxford University, says that her novels are about marriage, friendships and the family, which are still with us today. “The stories are timeless,” Jenkyns says.
Pride and Prejudice(《傲慢与偏见》) (1813) is Austen's most famous work. It is a love story about Elizabeth Bennet and Mr Darcy. At first, these two dislike each other. Elizabeth is pretty, smart and lively. She is proud because Darcy doesn't know about her family. Mr Darcy is handsome, rich and has a better family background. So, he is proud as well. At the same time, Darcy holds a prejudice against the Bennet family. He has no understanding of why the family, especially its mother and daughters, should try so hard to find wealthy and powerful husbands. He thinks they are vulgar. Anyway, Elizabeth and Darcy finally fall in love and become a romantic couple(夫妻) but their families don't want them to.
In Pride and Prejudice, some of the main things that Jane Austen wants to teach people are as follows. Opposites can attract(吸引) each other. Lovers should not only make each other feel relaxed or comfortable, but also educate and improve each other.
Austen is often called the greatest romantic writer, so it is surprising that she remained unmarried. “Maybe she was too romantic, waiting for the perfect man,” Jenkyns says.
( )19.From Paragraph 1 and Paragraph 2, we can know ________.
A.Jane Austen passed away in her fifties
B.Austen's works remain popular today
C.all of Austen's works have been made into Hollywood films
D.Austen's works are mostly about war and the family
( )20.Which of the following sentences is TRUE
A.Elizabeth and Darcy fall in love at first sight.
B.Elizabeth has a better family background than Darcy.
C.Darcy has a good first impression of Elizabeth's family.
D.Elizabeth and Darcy become a romantic couple in the end.
( )21.What does the underlined word “vulgar” in Paragraph 3 mean in Chinese
A.粗俗的 B.鲁莽的
C.吝啬的 D.伪善的
( )22.From what Jenkyns says, we can learn ________.
A.opposites can attract each other
B.lovers should improve each other
C.Austen's works go beyond her times
D.Austen married a perfect man at last
Ⅵ.2020·邵阳改编任务型阅读
My favourite book is The Little Prince written by the French writer Antoine. The book tells about how children see the world. It's so interesting that I can't help reading it over and over again.
The prince is kind and innocent(天真无邪的), so he doesn't understand why people want to have power, wealth and praises so much. He flew to different planets to find the answer, but finally he still had no idea. In fact, he also had his own problems. In the past, he fell in love with a red rose that was beautiful but vainglorious(自负的). Later, he left the rose because of her vanity(自负). On the earth, he made friends with a fox. They lived together for some time, but in the end he made up his mind to leave to find his rose. To his surprise, the rose was dead, and the planet was full of monkey bread trees. It's a pity that he lost his rose forever.
In my opinion, he should value the friendship with the fox, because, after all, the rose was dead. The friendship is important as well. The story is about friendship, love and humanity(人性). It's helpful for us students to think more about the world. So let's open it and take a great journey along with the little prince.
根据短文内容,判断下列句子正(A)误(B)。
( )23.The book The Little Prince was written by an English writer.
( )24.The prince didn't find the answer to his problem at last.
( )25.The prince left the rose because she was poor.
( )26.The prince made friends with a snake on the earth and lived with her for some time.
( )27.The story of the book is about friendship, love and humanity.
