In
history,
a
real
cowboy
was
a
simple
farm
worker
on
horseback.
He
spent
a
long
time
a
day
outdoors
working
with
cows.
The
work
was
dirty,
tiring
and
not
very
well
paid.
People
in
the
western
states
had
to 1 cattle
at
low
cost
and
send
them
by
railway
to
the
eastern 2 .
But
someone
had
to 3 the
cattle
and
get
them
to
the
nearest
railroad.
This
was
the
job
of
a
cowboy.
Sometimes
the 4 was
more
than
a
thousand
kilometers
away
and
it
could
take
as 5 as
six
months
to
move
the
cattle.
The 6 was
long
but
the
cattle
were
driven 7 as
not
to
lose 8 .
Then
they
could
be
sold
at
a
good
price.
Most
cowboys
were
young,
9 men.
A
good
horse 10 their
job
of
moving
cattle
much
easier.
A
good
cowboy 11 cows
and
knew
how
to
control
them.
At
night,
he 12 to
the
cows
to
keep
them
calm.
In
the
late
1800s,
America
was
changing
from
a
nation
of
farm
to
one
of 13 and
cities.
The
cowboy
seemed 14 compared
with
other
Americans
doing
ordinary
jobs.
Today,
the 15 of
cowboys
has 16 greatly.
One
change
is
the
use
of
trucks.
The
job
is
not
so
hard 17 it
used
to
be.
And
cowboys
are
better 18 now.
They
are 19 to
be
married.
Some
of
them
are
farmers
or
teachers
or
truck
drivers.
Some
work
for
big
companies.
20 at
night
and
on
weekends,
they
become
cowboys.
These
part-time
cowboys
increase
the
total
production
of
meat,
keeping
the
beef
price
low.
【语篇概述】本文介绍了cowboy的历史变迁。
1.
A.
get
B.
buy
C.
sell
D.
raise
【解析】选D。逻辑推理题。at
low
cost以低的成本。养牛时当然追求低成本,
将来卖牛时当然应当是高价钱,
这样才能从中获得更高利润,
从此处可知是raise
cattle(养牛)。
2.
A.
markets
B.
countries
C.
cities
D.
stories
【解析】选A。从下文可看出是要用火车把它们运到东部的市场,
然后卖牛,
所以此处应选markets,
意为“市场”。
3.
A.
deal
with
B.
find
out
C.
look
after
D.
pay
off
【解析】选C。逻辑推理题。cowboy的工作是照料牛,
并把它们赶到最近的铁路,
所以应是look
after(照料)。
4.
A.
road
B.
railroad
C.
state
D.
farm
【解析】选B。词汇复现题。由上文已出现的railroad,
及表语more
than
a
thousand
kilometers
away,
可知用railroad。
5.
A.
good
B.
much
C.
long
D.
far
【解析】选C。固定搭配题。表达要take“花费”6个月的时间,
自然用as
long
as(长达),
才与句意吻合。
6.
A.
journey
B.
trip
C.
tour
D.
travel
【解析】选A。逻辑推理题。四个选项虽然都有“旅行”之意,
但只有journey可表示“路程,
行程”。
7.
A.
hurriedly
B.
smoothly
C.
slowly
D.
carefully
【解析】选C。逻辑推理题。根据下文“be
sold
at
a
good
price”,
所以不能让牛瘦了,
因此只有“slowly”慢慢走,
不让牛过于劳累,
牛才不会减重。
8.
A.
mind
B.
direction
C.
head
D.
weight
【解析】选D。逻辑推理题。根据下文“be
sold
at
a
good
price”,
所以不能让牛瘦了,
因此用not
to
lose
weight。
9.
A.
unmarried
B.
proud
C.
strong
D.
educated
【解析】选A。因为一出去就是6个月,
因此最好是未婚男人——不必照料妻子和孩子,
A项为最佳答案。unmarried未婚的;
proud自豪的;
strong强壮的;
educated受过教育的。
10.
A.
had
B.
made
C.
found
D.
helped
【解析】选B。语法搭配题。句子最后有easier,
用于此结构(形容词作宾语补足语)的词此处只有found和made。根据上下文,
不是“发现容易”,
而是“一匹好马会使他们的赶牛的工作容易得多”,
所以选B。
11.
A.
recognized
B.
understood
C.
owned
D.
kept
【解析】选B。逻辑推理题。只有“懂得牛”——有这方面的常识和积累的经验,
才是一个好的cowboy,
也才能knew
how
to
control
them。
12.
A.
whispered
B.
shouted
C.
cried
D.
sang
【解析】选D。背景常识题。音乐或乐曲能使人、动物心态平和下来,
这是一般的常识,
所以用sang。whisper小声说,
耳语;
shout大喊大叫;
cry哭喊。
13.
A.
towns
B.
factories
C.
companies
D.
villages
【解析】选B。逻辑推理题。这是美国扩大工业生产的时期,
因此句子里用了“changing
from
a
nation
of
farm
to.
.
.
”,
farm应和factories相对。
14.
A.
free
B.
brave
C.
easy
D.
pleased
【解析】选A。逻辑推理题。工厂的工作是跟大机器连在一起,
工厂都有严格的纪律要求,
因此相比较而言,
cowboys就比较自由(free)了。
15.
A.
manner
B.
job
C.
life
D.
mind
【解析】选C。逻辑推理题。最后一段说的都是cowboy的变化,
通读后知道都是生活方面的。
16.
A.
changed
B.
developed
C.
improved
D.
realized
【解析】选A。词汇复现题。下一句话的One
change,
说明此处用changed。
17.
A.
that
B.
as
C.
which
D.
what
【解析】选B。语法搭配题。此处为比较句型“not
so
hard
as.
.
.
”,
意为“不如……艰难”。
18.
A.
known
B.
paid
C.
treated
D.
dressed
【解析】选C。逻辑推理题。只有雇方对待他们更好了,
才会有较好的工资,
也才会有钱去买衣服。而known“更出名了”,
与上下文不吻合。
19.
A.
afraid
B.
eager
C.
worried
D.
likely
【解析】选D。固定搭配题。be
likely
to
do很可能做某事,
这与前面unmarried相呼应。be
afraid
to
do
sth.
害怕做某事;
be
eager
to
do
sth.
渴望做某事;
be
worried
to
do
sth.
担心做某事。这三项不符合句意。
20.
A.
Because
B.
And
C.
When
D.
But
【解析】选D。逻辑推理题。前面是work
for
big
companies“为大公司干活”,
后面是become
cowboys,
前后在逻辑上表示转折,
所以用but。

(2016·全国卷Ⅰ)
Grandparents
Answer
a
Call
As
a
third-generation
native
of
Brownsville,
Texas,
Mildred
Garza
never
planned
to
move
away.
Even
when
her
daughter
and
son
asked
her
to
move
to
San
Antonio
to
help
with
their
children,
she
politely
refused.
Only
after
a
year
of
friendly
discussion
did
Ms
Garza
finally
say
yes.
That
was
four
years
ago.
Today
all
three
generations
regard
the
move
as
a
success,
giving
them
a
closer
relationship
than
they
would
have
had
in
separate
cities.
No
statistics
show
the
number
of
grandparents
like
Garza
who
are
moving
closer
to
adult
children
and
grandchildren.
Yet
there
is
evidence
suggesting
that
the
trend
is
growing.
Even
President
Obama’s
mother-in-law,
Marian
Robinson,
has
agreed
to
leave
Chicago
and
move
into
the
White
House
to
help
care
for
her
granddaughters.
According
to
a
study
by
grandparents.
com,
83
percent
of
the
people
said
Mrs
Robinson’s
decision
will
influence
grandparents
in
the
American
family.
Two-thirds
believe
more
families
will
follow
the
example
of
Obama’s
family.
“In
the
1960s
we
were
all
a
little
wild
and
couldn’t
get
away
from
home
far
enough
or
fast
enough
to
prove
we
could
do
it
on
our
own,
”says
Christine
Crosby,
publisher
of
Grand,
a
magazine
for
grandparents.
“We
now
realize
how
important
family
is
and
how
important
it
is
to
be
near
them,
especially
when
you’re
raising
children.
”
Moving
is
not
for
everyone.
Almost
every
grandparent
wants
to
be
with
his
or
her
grandchildren
and
is
willing
to
make
sacrifices,
but
sometimes
it
is
wiser
to
say
no
and
visit
frequently
instead.
Having
your
grandchildren
far
away
is
hard,
especially
knowing
your
adult
child
is
struggling,
but
giving
up
the
life
you
know
may
be
harder.
【语篇概述】本文是一篇议论文,
介绍了现在祖辈和孙辈住在一起有利有弊,
应该由每个人自己做出决定。
1.
Why
was
Garza’s
move
a
success
A.
It
strengthened
her
family
ties.
B.
It
improved
her
living
conditions.
C.
It
enabled
her
to
make
more
friends.
D.
It
helped
her
know
more
new
places.
【解析】选A。细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句可知,
现在Ms
Garza去照看孙辈使得他们的关系更近了,
故而加强了她的家庭联系。
2.
What
was
the
reaction
of
the
public
to
Mrs
Robinson’s
decision
A.
17%
expressed
their
support
for
it.
B.
Few
people
responded
sympathetically.
C.
83%
believed
it
had
a
bad
influence.
D.
The
majority
thought
it
was
a
trend.
【解析】选D。细节理解题。根据第二段最后两句可知,
大部分人会仿效Mrs
Robinson的做法,
这会成为一种趋势。
3.
What
did
Crosby
say
about
people
in
the
1960s
A.
They
were
unsure
of
themselves.
B.
They
were
eager
to
raise
more
children.
C.
They
wanted
to
live
away
from
their
parents.
D.
They
had
little
respect
for
their
grandparents.
【解析】选C。推理判断题。根据第三段第一句可推知,
20世纪60年代的时候,
人们想要离开家去证明自己的能力但现实并不允许,
他们心里其实是想离开家的。
4.
What
does
the
author
suggest
the
grandparents
do
in
the
last
paragraph
A.
Make
decisions
in
the
best
interests
of
their
own.
B.
Ask
their
children
to
pay
more
visits
to
them.
C.
Sacrifice
for
their
struggling
children.
D.
Get
to
know
themselves
better.
【解析】选A。推理判断题。由最后一段可知,
有时候对祖父母来说,
和子孙们住在一起并非就是好的选择,
不住在一起而经常去看望他们会更好,
这样不需改变祖父母熟悉的生活方式,
由此可推知作者建议祖父母是否和子孙一起住最好从自己的需求出发,
何去何从取决于自己的决定。

newspaper
was
started
in
Rome
in

American
newspaper
in
Boston.
But
not
long
after
it

stopped
the
paper.
In
1704,
John
Campbell
started

Newspaper,
the

排除A;
根据最后一段“But
the
largest
circulation
for
a

is
that
of
the
Japanese
newspaper
Asahi
Shimbun.
”可知排除B;
根据第一段“The

A
Manchester
is
the
“capital”
of
the
northwest
of
England.
Situated
on
the
east
bank
of
the
River
Irwell,
it
is
a
lively
busy
city
with
a
large
student
population.
Although
it
was
once
seen
as
only
a
dull
industrial
place,
in
recent
years
Manchester
has
become
the“in”place.
It
is
well-known
for
its
clubs,
its
fashion
and
its
music,
not
to
mention
its
world-famous
football
team,
Manchester
United.
There
is
plenty
to
see
in
Manchester
and
something
to
suit
all
taste.
For
example,
you
have
a
taste
of
the
Orient
in
Chinatown,
home
to
Manchester’s
large
Chinese
population.
Another
place
to
visit
is
the
historical
Eastlefield
area,
which
contains
the
first
urban
heritage
park
in
Britain.
Here
you
can
walk
around
the
museums
and
experience
the
atmosphere
of
the
19th
century
Manchester.
Football
fans
need
not
feel
left
out;
they
can
always
make
a
trip
to
the
Old
Trafford
Manchester
United
Museum
which
also
contains
a
coffee
shop
and
a
souvenir
shop.
It’s
easy
to
find
your
way
around
the
city
center
and
you’re
never
too
far
away
from
a
bus,
which
will
take
you
wherever
you
want
to
go.
However,
many
people
prefer
walking
in
a
city
where
there’s
so
much
to
see,
and
much
of
it
is
off
the

California
Boom
Town
with
cowboys,
gunfights,
stagecoaches,
and
a

Anthony
Eskinaizi,
says,
“when

The
Three
Gorges
Dam,
the
largest
dam,
is
also
the
largest
engineering
project
on
the
face
of
the
earth.
It
aims
to
make
the
mother
of
all
floods,
the
Yangtze
River,
into
a
tame
river,
and
to
generate
power
of
181,
200
megawatts
for
Eastern
and
Central
China.
It
will
form
a
huge,
deep
water
lake,
and
make
it
possible
for
10,
000
tons
ocean
going
ships
to
sail
1,
500
miles
inland
from
the
Pacific
to
the
city
of
Chongqing,
making
it
one
of
the
world’s
largest
inland
ports.
Construction
has
already
started.
The
dam
is
nearly
200
metres
high
and
1.
5
kilometres
wide,
at
a
spot
called
Sandouping
near
Yichang.
After
many
years
of
investigation(调研)experts
have
drawn
a
conclusion
that
such
a
grand
project
will
do
much
good.
It
is
the
most
important
to
control
floods.
By
building
hydropower
plantsinstead
of
new
coal
plants
to
meet
its
growing
demand
for
electricity,
China
will
offer
much
in
environmental
protection.
However,
some
scientists
don’t
agree
to
the
project.
They
say
that
Chongqing
and
dozens
of
other
cities
along
the
river
will
pollute
the
reservoir,
which
can
do
harm
to
people,
fish
and
other
living
things
that
depend
on
the
river.
Sedimentation(沉积)and
damage
of
a
breach(决口)are
problems,
too.
The
Three
Gorges
Dam
could
be
considered
when
it
is
finished,
in
2009,
the
8th
wonder
of
the
world.

As
is
known
to
us
all,
baths
and
bathing
have
long
been
considered
of
medical
importance
to
man.
In
Greece
there
are
the
ruins
of
a
water
system
for
baths
built
over
3,
000
years
ago.
The
Romans
had
warm
public
baths.
In
some
baths,
as
many
3,
000
persons
could
bathe
at
the
same
time.
Treating
disease
by
taking
a
bath
has
been
popular
for
centuries.
Modern
medical
bathing
first
became
popular
in
Europe
and
by
the
late
1700’s
had
also
become
popular
in
the
United
States.
For
many
years
frequent
bathing
was
believed
to
be
bad
for
one’s
health.
Ordinary
bathing
just
to
keep
clean
was
avoided,
and
perfume
was
often
used
to
cover
up
body
smells!
By
the
1700’s
doctors
began
to
say
that
soap
and
water
were
good
for
health.
They
believed
that
it
was
good
for
people
to
be
clean.
Slowly,
people
began
to
bathe
more
frequently.
During
the
Victorian
Age
of
the
late
19th
century,
taking
a
bath
on
Saturday
night
became
common.
In
the
United
States
ordinary
bathing
was
slow
to
become
popular.
During
the
18th
and
early
19th
centuries,
many
Americans
were
known
as
“The
Great
Unwashed!
”
In
one
American
city,
for
example,
a
person
was
only
allowed
to
take
a
bath
every
thirty
days!
That
was
a
law!
Frequency
of
bathing
today
is
partly
a
matter
of
habit.
People
know
that
bathing
for
cleanliness
is
important
to
health.
Doctors
know
that
dirty
bodies
increase
the
chance
of
diseases.
As
a
result,
in
the
United
States,
people
generally
bathe
often.
Some
people
bath
once
a
day
at
least.
They
consider
a
daily
bath
essential
to
good
health.

This
may
be
one
of
the
few
occasions
where
death
doesn’t
seem
to
be
such
a
horrible
thing.
Yang
Jiang,
a
renowned
Chinese
author
and
translator,
passed
away
on
May
25
in
Beijing
at
the
age
of
104.
It
is
a
great
loss
for
Chinese
literature.
But
for
her,
it’s
probably
like
going
home.

losing
her
daughter
Qian

in
1997
and
her
husband—the

writer

poet
Qian
Zhongshu-in
1998,
Yang
described
the
toll
death
has
affected
her
life.
“We
three
have
separated,
leaving
only
me
behind
to
clean
up
the
scene,
”Yang
wrote
in
her
book
We
Three(《我们仨》),
which
was
published
in
2004.
“I
am
alone,
missing
us
three.
”
The
spouse(配偶)of
an
influential
scholar
like
Qian
Zhongshu,
who
wrote
the
masterpiece
Fortress
Besieged(《围城》),
could
have
easily
been
overshadowed.
But
Yang
was
not.
Even
Qian
himself
described
her
as“the
most
chaste
wife
as
well
as
the
most
talented
girl”in
China,
a
place
where
it
was
once
believed
to
be
impossible
for
a
woman
to
be
both
a
wife
and
a
gifted
scholar.
One
of
Yang’s
best-known
novels
is
1998’s
Baptism(《洗澡》).
With“her
patent
style
of
irony
and
wit”,
Yang
described
how
Chinese
intellectuals(知识分子)adjusted
to
the
new
social
order
brought
by
the“Cultural
Revolution”(1966—1976),
commented
David
Der-wei
Wang,
a
professor
of
Chinese
literature
at
Harvard
University.
“Even
when
political
fervor
and
human
cruelty
is
being
observed,
Yang
Jiang
never
loses
her
sense
of
humor
and
compassion,
”he
said
in
a
blurb
for
her
book.
Yang
was
also
a
devoted
translator.
Having
studied
in
Britain
and
France,
she
was
fluent
both
in
English
and
French.
But
after
considering
several
English
and
French
translations
of
the
Spanish
classic
Don
Quixote(《唐吉诃德》)unsuitable,
she
started
learning
Spanish
from
scratch
at
the
age
of
47,
and
became
the
first
person
to
translate
Don
Quixote
into
Chinese.

C
There
are
some
great
differences
between
the
traditional
family
and
the
modern
family.
The
first
important
difference
is
in
the
man’s
role.
The
traditional
husband
was
the
head
of
the
household
because
he
was
the
only
one
who
worked
outside
the
home.
If
the
wife
worked
for
money,
then
the
husband
was
not
considered
to
be
a
good
provider.
In
many
families
today,
both
husband
and
wife
work
for
money.
Therefore,
they
share
the
role
of
head
of
household.
In
addition,
the
traditional
husband
usually
made
big
decisions
about
spending
money.
However,
the
modern
husband
shares
these
decisions
with
his
working
wife.
Also,
the
traditional
husband
did
not
help
his
wife
with
housework
or
meal
preparation.
Dinner
was
ready
when
he
came
home.
In
contrast,
the
modern
husband
helps
his
working
wife
at
home.
He
may
do
some
of
the
household
chores,
and
it
is
not
unusual
for
him
to
cook.
The
second
difference
is
in
the
woman’s
role.
In
the
traditional
family,
the
woman
may
have
worked
for
money
during
her
first
years
of
marriage.
However,
when
she
gave
birth,
she
would
usually
give
up
her
job.
Her
primary
role
would
be
to
take
care
of
her
family
and
home.
In
contrast,
in
many
families
today,
the
modern
woman
works
outside
the
home
even
after
she
has
children.
She’s
doing
two
jobs
instead
of
one,
so
she
is
busier
than
the
traditional
mother
was.
The
traditional
wife
learned
to
live
within
her
husband’s
income.
But
the
modern
wife
does
not
have
to
because
the
family
has
two
incomes.
The
final
difference
is
in
the
role
of
the
children.
In
the
traditional
family,
the
children
were
taken
care
of
by
the
mother
because
she
didn’t
work
outside.
However,
today
pre-school
children
may
go
to
a
child-care
center
or
to
a
baby-sitter
regularly
because
the
mother
works.
The
school-age
children
of
a
traditional
family
were
more
dependent.
Their
mother
was
there
to
help
them
get
ready
for
school
and
to
make
their
breakfast.
In
contrast,
modern
children
are
more
independent.
They
have
to
get
up
early
and
get
ready
for
school
by
themselves,
and
they
may
even
have
to
make
their
own
breakfast.

“Dr
Carr!
Is
it
you
Is
it
really
you
”I
turned
and
saw
a
smiling
young
man
calling
me.
It
was
Gibby.
Twelve
years
ago
when
he 1 my
class
to
begin
the
fifth
grade,
he
was
a
shy,
overweight
little
boy
who
always
kept 2 .
As
a
new
student
he
had
a 3 time
during
the
first
few
months.
I
often 4 that
when
the
boys
began
to
choose 5 for
a
game,
little
Gibby
would
usually
be 6 ,
standing
aside
lonely.
Many
times
I
went
out
on
the
playground
and 7 the
boys.
Whenever
I
chose
my
team,
I
would 8 Gibby’s
name.
My
team
might
not
have
been
the
best,
9 we
were
obviously
the
happiest
and
the
most
hard-working,
especially
Gibby.
Every
time
he
would
try
much
harder
than
anyone
else.
10 ,
he
gained
confidence(信心)and 11 to
smile
and
talk
more.
Now,
after
those 12 ,
here
the
little
Gibby
stood
in
front
of
me
like
a
tower.
He
said
he
was
a
manager
of
a
computer
company.
And
a
big
smile 13 on
his
face
as
he
continued,
“But,
Dr
Carr,
do
you
know
the
thing
that
I 14 most
about
you
”I 15 my
head.
“Well,
”he
said,
as
he 16 me
with
deep
blue
eyes,
“Whenever
you
got
a(n) 17 to
choose
teams
on
the
playground,
you
never
left
me
alone.
That
let
me
know
I
had 18 too.
”
I
was 19 deeply.
What
I
did
twelve
years
ago
made
him
find
his
self-confidence,
but
what
he
said
today
makes
me
know
that
I
can
make
a
difference.
From
him
I
know
how
to 20 better
in
the
future.

The
Aswan
High
Dam
is
one
of
the
world’s
largest
dams
on
the
Nile
River
in
southern
Egypt.
Aswan
is
a
city
on
the
Nile
in
Egypt.
As
waters
from
East
Africa
flowed
down
the
river,
the
water
in
the
Nile
brought
nutrients
and
minerals
that
made
the
soil
around
the
Nile
fertile
and
ideal
for
farming,
but
at
the
same
time,
it
caused
serious
floods.
So,
to
prevent
the
river’s
flooding,
generate
electricity
and
provide
water
for
agriculture,
the
Aswan
High
Dam
was
built.
In
1899,
the
construction
of
the
first
dam
began
and
lasted
until
1902.
The
dam
was
1,
900
meters
long
and
54
meters
high
then.
However,
the
dam
was
soon
found
not
big
enough
and
the
height
of
the
dam
was
raised
twice.
When
the
dam
almost
overflowed
again
in
1946,
it
was
decided
that
rather
than
raise
the
dam
a
third
time,
a
second
dam
would
be
built
6
km
upriver.
Proper
planning
began
in
1952.
At
first
the
USA
and
Britain
were
to
help
finance
construction.
But
both
nations
cancelled
the
offer
for
reasons
not
entirely
known.
At
last,
the
Soviet
Union
stepped
in,
and
possibly
a
third
of
the
cost
of
the
dam
was
paid
for
as
a
gift.
The
Soviets
also
provided
technicians
and
heavy
machinery.
Construction
began
in
1960,
and
was
completed
on
July
21,
1970.
The
Aswan
High
Dam
is
3,
600
meters
in
length,
and
111
meters
high.
It
produces
a
hydro-electric
output
of
2.
1
gigawatts
and
allows
for
the
connection
of
most
Egyptian
villages
to
electricity.
In
addition
to
the
benefits,
however,
damming
the
Nile
caused
a
number
of
issues.

B
For
sixty
years
Barbara
Cooney
created
children’s
books.
She
wrote
some.
And
she
provided
pictures
for
her
own
books
and
for
books
written
by
others.
Her
name
appears
on
one
hundred
and
ten
books
in
all.
The
last
book
was
published
six
months
before
her
death.
It
is
called
Basket
Moon.
It
was
written
by
Mary
Lyn
Ray.
It
tells
the
story
of
a
boy
who
lived
a
century
ago
with
his
family
in
the
mountains
in
New
York
state.
His
family
makes
baskets
that
are
sold
in
town.
One
magazine
describes
Barbara
Cooney’s
paintings
in
Basket
Moon
as
quiet
and
beautiful.
It
says
they
tie
together
“the
basket
maker’s
natural
world
and
the
work
of
his
craft”.
Barbara
Cooney
was
known
for
her
carefully
detailed
work.
One
example
is
in
her
artwork
for
the
book
Eleanor.
It
is
about
Eleanor
Roosevelt,
who
became
the
wife
of
President
Franklin
Roosevelt.
Miss
Cooney
made
sure
that
a
dress
worn
by
Eleanor
as
a
baby
was
historically
correct
down
to
the
smallest
details.
Another
example
of
her
detailed
work
is
in
her
retelling
of
Chanticleer
and
the
Fox.
She
took
the
story
from
the
Canterbury
Tales
by
English
poet
Geoffrey
Chaucer.
Barbara
Cooney
once
said
that
every
flower
and
grass
in
her
pictures
grew
in
Chaucer’s
time
in
fourteenth
century
England.
Barbara
Cooney
wondered
at
times
if
her
concern
about
details
was
worth
the
effort.
“How
many
children
will
know
or
care
”she
said.
“Maybe
not
a
single
one.
Still
I
keep
piling
it
on.
Detail
after
detail.
Whom
am
I
pleasing
besides
myself
I
don’t
know.
Yet
if
I
put
enough
in
my
pictures,
there
may
be
something
for
everyone.
Not
all
will
be
understood,
but
some
will
be
understood
now
and
maybe
more
later.
”

Cooney(芭芭拉·库尼)这位美国作家的情况。
