21、   文化意识——中外文学作品

It is believed that Huck Finn is based on a childhood friend of Mark Twain's. In fact, Twain was not alone in basing a fictional character on a real­life person.

Severus Snape/John Nettleship

Severus Snape is a skillful teacher teaching magic in Harry Potter. The writer, J．K. Rowling, once said that the character was based on a teacher of hers.

The teacher turned out to be John Nettleship, who taught Rowling chemistry. At first, Nettleship felt surprised. “I know I am a strict teacher，” he said. “But I don't think I am as bad as Snape！” On second thoughts, however, he said that he was so ill­tempered that most of his students avoided making him mad. Also, he used to wear long hair and have an untidy lab. That sounds familiar to Harry Potter fans.

Alice/Alice Liddell

Famously, Lewis Carroll's Alice in Alice's Adventures in Wonderland is based on Alice Liddell.

Carroll was close to the Liddell family. One day, ten­year­old Alice asked Carroll to tell her a new story. Carroll began to create his famous tale of Alice and what happened after she fell through the rabbit hole. The little girl liked the story so much that she asked him to write it down. And the rest is history.

Dill/Truman Capote

In To Kill a Mockingbird, Harper Lee based Dill on her childhood friend, Truman Capote. Capote once said, “Lee was my best friend. Have you ever read To Kill a Mockingbird?  I'm a character in that story! The story takes place just in the town where we lived！”

22、Cheetahs(猎豹) and other big cats(大型猫科动物) are in danger of dying out because they have few places to live and people hunt them. Can we help these big cats in danger?

Wildlife scientists hope so. They are trying to protect the big cats by letting people know about their situation and thinking out some ways to keep them safe.

Cheetahs are the world’s fastest land animals. Most cheetahs live in Africa. In the past 100 years, the number of cheetahs living in the wild has changed from 100,000 to fewer than 12,000.

24、   When it comes to shopping for clothes, my mother and I have always disagreed on what fits (适合) me well. To me, if it zips (拉上拉链), it fits. My mom, however, usually says I need a bigger size. When I was a teenager, I wanted to dress like my friends, but my body size made it impossible. When mom told me something didn’t suit me, or I needed a bigger size, all I heard was   that my body was wrong. To avoid arguments, we stopped going shopping together.

This continued until I got engaged (订婚) last year and needed to buy a wedding dress. Maybe I could buy it alone, of course, but my mom is the most important person in my life. The idea of looking for a wedding dress without her seemed just inappropriate (不恰当的). Although the experience of taking her with me sounds pretty scary, I would still like to try it.

And so the day came. As I tried on a simple white dress, I saw tears in my mom’s eyes. “You look beautiful!” she told me. Nothing could have shocked me more. This one didn’t zip up at the back and I did actually need a bigger size, but my mother didn’t say that. She just told me how beautiful I looked. At that moment, all the arguments in the past were erased off (抹去).

We didn’t buy a dress that day. We decided to see more, which I would never have predicted. A few weeks and many shopping trips later, we found the perfect dress. We both loved it as soon as I put it on. And during those few weeks, mom and I also found the perfect fit (搭配) for our shopping relationship.

A.The writer liked clothes with zippers while her mother didn’t

B.The writer and her mom always argued about the size of the her clothes

C.The writer’s mom could always find perfect clothes for her

D.The writer tried to lose weight when she was a teenager

【2】Why did the writer go shopping with her mom to buy the wedding dress?

A.Because she couldn’t find any friends to go with her.

B.Because her mom was very experienced in choosing a wedding dress.

C.Because it was inappropriate to shop for a wedding dress without her mom.

D.Because they always had a great shopping relationship.

【3】When they went shopping for the wedding dress, the writer felt shocked because _________.

A.none of the wedding dresses could zip up at her back

B.her mom asked her to try on a bigger—sized dress again

C.her mom said she looked beautiful even though the dress didn’t fit her

D.they found the perfect dress more quickly than she had expected
