Ⅲ.阅读理解(每小题2分，共40分)

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。

In recent years, yoga(瑜珈)has become popular with people for its fitness. Because of the focus on the physical aspects of yoga, like postures and breathing, few people realize that they are taking part in an ancient practice, developing from Indian religion.

Yoga originated in India in the sixth century B．C., when people were trying to answer questions about the nature of the self and the soul. It started as a practice only done by ascetics(僧人). So it was not something that the average people did.

Yoga is not only a physical practice but also a mental practice, designed to reduce the focus on the external(外部), said Whitney Sanford, professor of religious studies. Most people pay much attention to daily existence and as a result, they lead busy lives, while Yoga provides people with a technique to cut off their devotion to the external.

Samantha Tam said that practicing yoga improved her flexibility and treated her injuries. “Every time after practicing yoga, I always felt really relaxed and was in a good mood，”she said.

Yoga was probably introduced on a popular level in America in the 1960s and 1970s, when Western people began to show curiosity about other religions. Now most people pursue yoga to relieve stress, and fair numbers of people are simply curious.

文章大意：本文主要介绍了瑜珈的宗教起源，发展以及现代人练瑜珈的目的。

36．According to the passage, yoga was originally performed for________.

A．its fitness B．relaxed and healthy life

C．religious reasons D．the need of the soul

37．Yoga is the following EXCEPT________.

A．a physical practice

B．a mental practice

C．a way of paying attention to the external

D．a way of reduing the focus on the externeal

38．Today, people do Yoga for many reason EXCEPT________.

A．to get rid of stress

B．to treat injuries

C．to satisfy their curiosity

D．to become a hindu(印度人)

39．What would be the best title for the passage?

A．Yoga, an Indian religion, now attacks American culture.

B．Yoga, originally a religious practice, now popular for its fitness.

C．A good way to practice one's postures and breathing.

D．Pursue Yoga, learn about Indian religion.

You Are What You Eat

Fatness is a main problem for Asia's fast-food generation. Dr. Chwang, director of the Department of Food Nutrition, says children are consuming more meat and soft drinks. That is a thorough departure from the traditional diet of vegetables and rice and little meat.“They like big pieces of fried meat with a soft drink. So although they eat the same volume of food, their calorie intake(卡路里摄入量)has increased. Now about 40 to 45 percent of their calories come from fat，”says Chwang.

Although on the whole Asians tend towards thinness, culture—namely Asians' hospitality(好客)—is a reason for the fatness of today's generation, according to Chwang. “Asian people love food，”she says，“Eating and drinking are important social and family function.”In the past, however, big meals were only hosted on special occasions as people were more careful with money. Today's climate of wealth and remarkable consumption, 10-coure meals are no longer reserved for significant occasions.

More than anyone else, children are on the receiving end of their parents' improved circumstances. “In the past, people had four or more children—now, they have one or two, so they tend to spoil them，”says chwang. The easiest way is to give them“quality food”. Parents think feeding them well is showing their love. They feel bad when their children look thin.

When describing the condition of most overweight Asian children, Chwang says，“There is a clear relationship between fatness and indoor play. Children get fat because they don't move, and eventually, they don't want to move because they are fat.”

Thanks to technology, a growing army of children prefer video games to do old outdoor sports.“What do children do when watching TV or sitting in front of the computer playing video games? They eat chocolate and drink Coke，”says Chwang.

文章大意：作者在文章中与读者探讨了一个话题：在亚洲，大部分人都趋向于身体苗条，但肥胖的儿童却屡见不鲜。

40．Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

A．Asian people tend to save more money.

B．Asian children depart from their diet tradition.

C．Asian children eat big meals on more tradition.

D．Culture contributes to the fatness of Asian children.

41．According to this passage, the“quality food”fed by some parents is actually________.

A．healthful food B．qualified food

C．agreeable food D．high-caloric food

42．Some parents feel bad when their children look thin, because________.

A．their children don't love eating and drinking

B．their children don't have a good physical children

C．they feel that they don't take good care of their children

D．they feel that they are not wealthy enough to afford“quality food”

43．The purpose of this article is to________.

A．compare the traditional diet with today's diet of Asian children

B．find reasons for increased food consumption of Asian people

C．explain why many Asian children are overweight nowdays

D．prove the relationship between fatness and indoor play

It all started at the beginning of the fifth grade. At first, Carmen wasn't really sure what was happening. In calss, she had to squint(斜视)to see the blackboard clearly. As the fuzziness(模糊)got worse, she became more and more worried. It was important for her to see the notes and homework assignments the teacher put on the board.

However, she didn't want anyone to know that she was having a problem of seeing. At last, her mother noticed her squinting as she watched favorite shows, and called the eye doctor to set up an appointment for her.

Three days later, Carmen had new glasses and instructions from her doctor to wear them all the time. Carmen frowned in the car the whole way home.“You look just as beautiful with those glasses on as you do without them，”her mother said. But Carmen didn't believe her.

The next day, Carmen kept the glasses in her pocket as she walked into the schoolyard. She avoided her friends and stood alone, feeling miserable. Suddenly, Theresa, her friend, cried out，“My silver ring is gone! It's very special and I can't lose it！”

Carmen realized that she could search better if she could see better. She took the glasses out and put them on. She looked down at the ground and a glimmer of silver caught her eye. It was the ring.

“Here it is，”she shouted. She handed it to Theresa.“Thanks Carmen，”she said，“I never thought we'd find it.”She paused. “Hey, I didn't know you wore glasses. They look great”．

As they walked back toward the school building, two more girl from her class complimented her glasses. Carmen smiled. “Maybe wearing glasses won't be so bad after all，”she thought.

文章大意：本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了女孩Carmen(卡门)担心别人嘲笑而不敢戴眼镜，后来发生的事情使她改变了之前的想法。文章说明了一个道理：很多事情并不像我们想像的那么糟糕。

Last summer I went through a training program and became a literacy volunteer(扫盲志愿者). The training I received, though excellent, did not tell me how it was to work with a real student, however. When I began to discover what other people's lives were like because they could not read, I realized the true importance of reading.

My first student Marie was a 44-year-old single mother of three. In the first lesson, I found

out she walked two miles to the nearest supermarket twice a week because she didn't know which bus to take. When I told her I would get her a bus schedule, she told me it would not help because she could not read it. She said she also had difficulty once she got to the supermarket because she couldn't always remember what she needed. Since she did not know words, she could not write out a shopping list. Also, she could only recognize items by sight, so if the product had a different label. She would not recognize it as the product she wanted.

As we worked together, learning how to read built Marie's self-confidence, which encouraged her to continue in her studies. She began to make rapid progress and was even able to take the bus to the supermarket. After this successful trip, she reported how self-confident she felt. At the end of the program, she began helping her youngest son, Tony, a shy first grader, with his reading. She sat with him before he went to sleep and together they would read bedtime stories. When his eyes became wide with excitement as she read, pride was writen all over her face, and she began to see how her own hard work in learning to read paid off. As she described this experience, I was proud of myself as well. I found that helping Marie to build her self-confidence was more rewarding than anything I had ever done before.

As a literacy volunteer, I learned a great deal about teaching and helping others. In fact, I may have learned more from the experience than Marie did.

文章大意：文章讲了自己作为扫盲志愿者的一段经历并从中领悟到帮助别人就能够给自己带来快乐的道理。

48．What did the author do last summer?

A．She worked in the supermarket.

B．She helped someone to learn to read.

C．She gave single mothers the help they needed.

D．She went to a training program and became a literacy volunteer.

49．Why didn't Marie go to the supermarket by bus at first?

A．Because she liked to walk to the supermarket.

B．Because she lived far away from the bus stop.

C．Because she couldn't afford the bus ticket.

D．Because she couldn't find the right bus.

50．How did Marie use to find the goods she wanted in the supermarket?

A．She knew where the goods were in the supermarket.

B．She asked others to take her to the right place.

(2010全国Ⅰ)

Science can't explain the power of pets, but many studies have shown that the company of pets can help lower blood pressure (血压) and raise chances of recovering from a heart attack, reduce loneliness and spread all-around good cheer.

Any owner will tell you how much joy a pet brings. For some, an animal provides more comfort than a husband/wife. A 2002 study by Karen Allen of the State University of New York measured stress (紧张) levels and blood pressure in people—half of them pet owners—while they performed 5 minutes of mental arithmetic (算术) or held a hand in ice water. Subjects completed the tasks alone, with a husband/wife, a close friend or with a pet. People with pets did it best. Those tested with their animal friends had smaller change in blood pressure and returned most quickly to baseline heart rates. With pets in the room, people also made fewer math mistakes than when doing in front of other companions. It seems people feel more relaxed (放松) around pets, says Allen, who thinks it may be because pets don't judge.

A study reported last fall suggests that having a pet dog not only raises your spirits but may also have an effect on your eating habits. Researchers at Northwestern Memorial Hospital spent a year studying 36 fat people and their equally fat dogs on diet-and-exercise programs; a separate group of 56 people without pets were put on a diet program. On average, people lost about 11 pounds, or 5% of their body weight. Their dogs did even better, losing an average of 12 pounds, more than 15% of their body weight. Dog owners didn't lose any more weight than those without dogs but, say researchers, got more exercise overall—mostly with their dogs—and found it worth doing.

52．What does the text mainly discuss?

A．What pets bring to their owners.

B．How pets help people calm down.

C．People's opinions of keeping pets.

D．Pet's value in medical research.

53．We learn from the text that a person with heart disease has a better chance of getting well if ______.

A．he has a pet companion

B．he has less stress of work

C．he often does mental arithmetic

D．he is taken care of by his family

54．According to Allen, why did the people do better with pets around when facing stressful tasks?

A．They have lower blood pressure.

B．They become more patient.

C．They are less nervous.

D．They are in higher spirits.

55．The research mentioned in the last paragraph reports that ________.

A．people with dogs did more exercise

B．dogs lost the same weight as people did

C．dogs liked exercise much more than people did

D．people without dogs found the program unhelpful

I am a student from Beijing No. 1 High School. __________________________________

I am looking forward to your reply.

Yours sincerely,

Li Lei 1答案：B句意：“为了找到一份更好的工作，他决定再学一门外语”。第一空表泛

指；第二空a second表示“再一；又一”。

2答案：C day by day“一天天地”，强调变化；day after day强调重复，表示“一天又一天”。

3答案：B句意：许多孩子拿他的秃头开玩笑。

4答案：B该题是通过虚拟语气考查动词时态。根据后半句判断，他们已经去了加拿大，所以我们判断这是与过去的事实相反的假设，主句谓语用过去式。

5答案：A从句中时态判断，该句是一个对过去的虚拟句，即if引导的非真实条件句。

6答案：C should在此表示假设，译为“万一”。

7答案：B be made up of“由……组成”；consist of不用于被动语态。

8答案：D主句是过去将来完成时，从句要用过去完成时。此句为条件从句省略引导词if，从句谓语部分需要倒装的特殊虚拟语气题。若不省略if，则应表述为If it had not been for the flood, the ship would have reached its destination on schedule。句意：要不是因为洪水，船就会按期到达目的地了。

9答案：C句意：这家旅馆优质的服务在某种程度上弥补了它劣质食品带来的不足。

get rid of“除掉”；get on with“与……相处”；made up for“弥补”；made up of“由……构成”。

10答案：C句意：汽油快用完了。用进行时态表示将来的意思，若用run out of短语，应该用被动语态。

11答案：C由从句中句子成分知he told us缺宾语，故应选关系代词that/which。

12答案：A“感情”的传递用convey。

13答案：B本题题意：昨天一整天我感到很不舒服，今天早上我决定不会再次面对这样的日子啦。another表示“再一次，又一个”。

14答案：B collected“收集”；contained“包含；包括”；loaded“把……装上车/船等”；saved“拯救；节省”。由句意可知B正确。

15答案：C句意：“你能帮我搬这只箱子吗？”“乐意帮助”。在英语中对于他人提出的帮助请求，通常采用with pleasut回答，表示“非常乐意”。

16答案：B从下文的“laughter, love, and belonging”可知，应用“loneliness”与之对应。

17答案：A从下文“she gave the family one of her little homemade paper roses”可知，此处表示“她为孩子找到了一个新家”。

18答案：D此处意为“这已经成为她的惯例”，tradition意为“惯例；传统”；所以答案选D。glory“光荣”；favor“喜爱”；habit“习惯”；均不符合句意。

19答案：C句意：“一天晚上，玛丽为收养孩子的父亲主持了一个会议”。organize“组织”；plan“计划”；host“主持(活动)”；attend“参加”。

20答案：A既然是向其他人作自我介绍，他肯定是一个新来者。

21答案：B纸玫瑰年月已久，早已经褪色了。broken“破损的”；faded“褪色的”；treasured“珍爱的”；dried“干燥的”；联系上下文可知，答案选B。

22答案：D由下文可知，此处用“worthless”，表示“无用的”；tasteless“无味的”；powerless“无影响力的”；priceless“无价的”；均不符合句意。

23答案：C bring...into意为“使……进入”。

24答案：A由下文“They not only loved me”可知，这里用“loved”，表示“被爱”。

25答案：D silently“沉默地”；continuously“连续不断地”；unintentionally“无意地”；unconditionally“无条件地”。

26答案：B necessity“必需品”；possibility“可能性”；beauty“美好的东西”；riches“财富”；a world of possibilities意为“一个充满可能性的世界”。

27答案：C依据上文内容可知，他是一个养父，这里表示“他为自己能给孩子机会而感到自豪”。

28答案：A start out“开始”；come up“走近”；turn out“证明是”；grow up“长大”。

29答案：D句意：你们每个人都知道(know)很久以前她是在哪里得到这朵玫瑰的。

30答案：B句意：“我的这朵新玫瑰象征一个新的春天”。replace“代替”；symbolize“象征”；equal“等于”；create“创造”。

31答案：A由上文“to be giving that chance to a child”可知，这里表示“给自己的小女孩一个新的绝好的机会”。

32答案：A此处表示“它提醒(reminds)我要无条件地爱她”。help“帮助”；accompany“伴随”；drive“迫使”；均不符合句意。

33答案：C句意：这些像玫瑰一样微小而特殊的东西把我们的一生系在一起”。tie...together表示“把……系在一起。下文“tie together the meaningful things”也有提示。

34答案：D句意：一件简单的事使我们默默思考一个新的开端。leave意为“使处于……状态”。put“放”；push“推”；cause“引起”，均不符合句意。

35答案：A yet“然而”；besides“此处”；othrwise“否则”；therefore“因此”。

36答案：C推理判断题。根据第一段最后一句“...they are taking part in an ancient practice, developing from Indian religion”以及第二段第二句中“It started as a practice only done by ascetics”可推测人们最初练瑜珈是因为宗教的原因。

37答案：C细节理解题。根据第三段第一句话可知，瑜珈不仅是对身体和心灵的锻炼，也被作为一种切断人们对世俗与物质留恋的手段。

38答案：D细节推断题。根据第四段与第五段可知人们学瑜珈的目的是减轻压力，提高身体的灵活性和治疗伤痛，还有一些人是为了时髦，至于人们认为Mitchell(米切尔)教人们瑜珈是想把他们变为印度教徒，这只是一种误解。

39答案：B主旨归纳题。文章前三段讲述了瑜珈的宗教起源，后面的内容讲述了现代的人们练瑜珈的目的，因此B项的概括最全面。A项中的“影响了美国文化”在文中没有体现；C项“一种锻炼形体和呼吸的好方法”不是本文的主要意思；D项“从瑜珈了解印度教”更是没有涉及。

40答案：A细节理解题。信息在第三段第二句，现在亚洲的人们趋向于消费而不是存钱，故A是错误的。其他三项在文中均能找到依据。

41答案：D语义推断题。第四段说明亚洲人生活水平提高了，而每个家庭中孩子的数量却减少了，因此父母们开始给孩子吃“高品质的食品”，由上文孩子逐渐变肥胖可知，quality food其实就是高热量食物。

42答案：C信息理解题。信息在第四段最后两句，如果孩子太瘦，他们则会认为没有好好地关爱、养育孩子，与C项的表达意思一致。其他三项文中并未提及。

43答案：C主旨归纳题。文章从亚洲人的饮食文化出发，分析食物中卡路里的含量，儿童变胖的原因等。A，B，D显得太片面，在文章中只是有所提及，并不能作为主要内容。

44答案：D词义判断题。据后面提到的“maybe wearing glasses won't be so sad after all.”可知这两个女孩是在“赞美，羡慕”她，所以让她觉得戴眼镜也不是一件很糟的事。

45答案：A细节理解题。从第一段最后一句“It was important for her to see the notes...”可知卡门很在乎学业，因此B项错。卡门不敢戴眼镜，立刻戴上眼镜帮其寻找，说明她在乎朋友，因此C错；由此也可判断，为了帮助朋友，她不顾别人笑话戴上眼镜，因此A项“她为了帮助朋友而克服恐惧心理”的概括正确。

46答案：C推理判断题。因为根据医生的建议，卡门应一直戴眼镜，而现在从朋友的话语中她知道戴上眼镜并不难看，因此推断以后她会整天戴着眼镜。因此C项正确。

47答案：B主旨推断题。卡门的经历说明了一个深刻的道理：很多道理并不像我们想像的那样糟糕。因此B项正确。“保护眼睛”，“视力不好的感受”和“不要戴贵重的首饰去学校”都不是本文的中心。

48答案：D细节理解题。文章的第一段第一句：去年暑假通过培训我成为了一名扫盲

志愿者。

49答案：D细节理解题。从文章的第二段可以得出正确答案，因为她不知道该乘哪班车。

50答案：C细节理解题。信息在第二段最后一句话，她在超市购物时只能借助于商品的外观。

51答案：A推理判断题。文中讲玛丽原来不会识字，不能辨认车次，买东西单凭外表，而识字后就能做到了，可推断出正确答案。文章中提到玛丽帮助儿子，可推知B是错误的；C，D均与原文信息不符。

52答案：A根据首段可知，很多研究表明，宠物可以降低血压，提高心脏病恢复的几率，减少孤独感和传播快乐。

53答案：A根据第一段内容可知。

54答案：C根据第二段最后一句话可知，“和宠物在一起，人们感到更加放松”。

55答案：A根据最后一段最后一句话可知，虽然狗的主人体重没有多大变化，但是却比没有养狗的人得到更多的锻炼，因为是和他们的狗在一起，他们认为很值得。

选修6 Unit 1 Art-Reading A SHORT HISTORY OF WESTERN PAINTING Art is influenced by the customs and faith of a people. Styles in Western art have changed many times. As there are so many different styles of Western art, it would be impossible to describe all of them in such a short text. Consequently, this text will describe only the most important ones, starting from the sixth century AD. The Middle Ages (5th to the 15th century AD) During the Middle Ages, the main aim of painters was to represent religious themes. A conventional artist of this period was not interested in showing nature and people as they really were. A typical picture at this time was full of religious symbols, which created feeling of respect and love for God. But it was evident that ideas were changing in the 13th century when painters like Giotto di Bondone began to paint religious scenes in a more realistic way. The Renaissance (15th to 16th century) During the Renaissance, new ideas and values graduallv replaced those held in the Middle Ages.People began to concentrate less on religious themes and adopt a more humanistic attitude to life. At the same time painters returned to classical Roman and Greek ideas about art. They tried to paint people and nature as they really were. Rich people wanted to possess t heir own paintings, so they could decorate their superb palaces and great houses. They paid famous artists to paint pictures of themselves, their houses and possessions as well as their activities and achievements. One of the most important discoveries during this period was how to draw things in perspective. This technique was first used by Masaccio in 1428. When people first saw his paintings, they were convinced that they were looking through a hole in a wall at a real scene. If the roles of perspective had not been discovered, no one would have been able to paint such realistic pictures. By coincidence, oil paints were also developed at this time, which made the colours used in paintings look richer and deeper. Without the new paints and the new technique, we would not be able to see the many great masterpieces for which this period is famous. Impressionism (late 19th to early 20th century) In the late 19th century, Europe changed a great deal. from a mostly agricultural society to a mostly industrial one. Many people moved from the countryside to the new cities. There were many new inventions and social changes. Naturally, these changes also led to new painting styles. Among the painters who broke away from the traditional style of painting were the Impressionists, who lived and worked in Paris.

S6 unit1—unit2 阅读： a People are more likely to wash their hands properly after using the toilet if they are shamed into it or think they are being watched, scientists said on Thursday. Hand-washing is the cheapest way of controlling disease but less than one third of men and two thirds of women wash their hands with soap after going to the toilet, a British study by the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine showed. But when prompted by an electronic message flashing up on a board asking: "Is the person next to you washing with soap?," around 12 percent more men and 11 percent more women used soap. Health authorities around the world are stepping up efforts to persuade people t o be more hygienic and wash their hands properly to help slow the spread of H1N1 swine flu, which was declared a pandemic（大流行病） by the World Health Organization in June. "Hand-washing with soap has been ranked the most effective way for the worldwide control of disease," the study's authors wrote. "It could save more than a million lives a year from diarrhoeal diseases, and prevent respiratory（呼吸） infections -- the biggest causes of child mortality（死亡）in developing countries." In developed nations, hand-washing can help prevent the spread of viral infections like flu and sickness and diarrhea bugs like norovirus and rotavirus, as well as hospital-acquired infections like MRSA and C-difficile, the authors said. The researchers studied the behavior of a quarter of a million people using toilets at motorway service stations in Britain over 32 days．Use of soap was monitored by sensors. The study, published in the American Journal of Public Health to mark Global Hand-washing Day, showed that with no reminders, 32 percent of men and 64 percent of women used soap. 1．In which of the following situation can people wash their hands properly? A．After they going to toilet B．when they think they are being watched. C．When they think their hands are dirty. D．When they find soap nearby. 2．Which of the following is the main advantage of hand-washing? A．people can always get their hands clean． B．People can save a lot of time and water．C．It is the cheapest way of controlling disease. D．It wastes no any time and energy. 3．What is the biggest cause of child death in developing countries? A.respiratory infections． B .diarrhoeal diseases． C．H1N1swine flu． D.hospital-acquired infections. 4．Which of the following is true according to the seventh paragraph? A．Hand-washing is popular in the developed countries. B．They authorities persuaded the people to wash their hands daily. C．More and more people know to wash their hands properly. D．The spread of viral infections is a serious problem. 5．We can conclude from the passage that _______. A．Most people wash their hands after going to toilet B.Many people can not wash their hands properly. C．Few people know Global Hand-washing Day. D．H1N1 swine flu was declared a pandemic. II单选： 6．—Will you join us in the game? —Thank you, A．but why not? B．but I’d rather not. C．and I won’t D．and I’ll join. 7．---Could you turn the TV down a little bit? ---______.Is it disturbing you?

The exhibition has created debate (辩论) with some people saying that as fun as video games are, they are not works of art. Other people say that video games may be a new form of art and that they belong in museums. We asked readers for their opinions on the topic. Here are a few of the letters we received. A video game is like a painting on a screen. In order to make a video game, you have to think of something original (新颖的) to reach the players. That is the point of art. — Mary Pottanat, 13 I believe video games are not a form of art. Art should be a visual (视觉的) and creative expression of feelings. Although it is arguable that video games are visual, they do not express feelings in any way. — Pranab Kirshnan, 12 However exciting video games are, they are not art. Painting is art, but not video games. Art has beauty and culture that no technology could ever compare to. Even though you can create art in some video games, the “Mona Lisa” wasn't painted with Nintendo. — Caroline Kaplan, 10 Art is a way of communicating ideas to the public in a way that is fun

Nelle Harper Lee was born on April 28, 1926, in Monroeville, Alabama. As a child, Harper Lee was a tomboy (假小子). She fought on the playground. She talked back to teachers, and she was bored with school. In high school Lee was lucky enough to have a gifted English teacher, Gladys Watson Burkett, who made her fall in love with literature and taught her h ow to write well. There Lee loved nineteenth-century British authors best, and once said that her dream was to become “the Jane Austen of South Alabama”．After leaving high school, she went to the University of Alabama. There she found a second home on the campus newspaper. Eventually she became editor-in-chief of the Rammer Jammer, a quarterly humor magazine on campus. She entered the law school, but she loathed it. Despite her father's hope that she would become a local attorney (律师) like her sister Alice, Lee went to New York for her writing. She spent eight years working small jobs before she finally showed a manuscript (手稿) to Tay Hohoff, an editor at J．B. Lippincott. At this point, it was more like a string of stories than the novel that Lee wanted to write. Under Hohoff's guidance, two and a half years of rewriting followed. Finally the novel was ready for publication. To Kill a Mockingbird was published in 1960 to highly favorable reviews and quickly climbed the bestseller lists, where it remained for eighty-eight weeks. In 1961, the novel won the Pulitzer Prize. To Kill a Mockingbird has sold more than thirty million copies in eighteen languages. In 2011, President Obama awarded Nelle Harper Lee the National Medal of Arts. 4．When Nelle Harper Lee was a little girl, she ________． A．loved reading very much B．was loved by all her teachers C．read some of Jane Austen's novels D．was naughty and liked breaking rules 5．What kind of role did Gladys Watson Burkett play in Nelle Harper Lee's life? A．She recommended her to some living authors. B．She made her become a popular girl. C．She inspired her to write her novel. D．She introduced her to literature.
