M: Hi, Rose, you are so absorbed that you didn’t even know I came in.
W: Oh, you scared me. We were assigned the homework to learn more about the Bronte sisters. [12]Now I am reading one of their books Jane Eyre.
M: I’ve just read it the other day. No wonder you were absorbed. It is worth reading. It was written by the eldest sister, Charlotte Bronte.
W: So, you know the sisters. Tell me more about them.
M: The other two are Emily and Anne, and their famous works are Wuthering Heights, and Agnes Grey respectively.
W: I learned they had a brother. Is he also well-known?
M: Well, it’s interesting that those literature geniuses had such an ordinary brother. Whatever he did, he ended up a failure. However, later he got famous because it was he who left the world the sisters’ only picture.
W: You mean without him, we would not have learned what the sisters looked like?
M: Definitely true. Personally, I think the reason, why he was a failure is that he might have been spoiled. Have you learned that his sisters sacrificed a lot to promote him?
W: What do you mean?
M: In the early period of the 19th century, women were usually looked down upon. So the hopes of a family rested on the male child. The three sisters had their first books published in their pen names.
W: So, inequality between men and women was a historical problem. But it’s a pity that the sisters died very young.
12 What was the woman doing when the man came in?
13 Who wrote Wuthering Heights?
14 Why was the Bronte sisters’ brother a failure?
15 What do we know about the Bronte sisters’ first books?
选项
A、Their settings were in the 19th century.
B、They were stories about inequality.
C、They settled historical problems.
D、They were published in pen names.
答案
D
解析
男士说在19世纪早期,女性一般会受到歧视,所以一家人的希望都寄托在男孩身上。三姐妹发表她们第一部作品时都是用笔名。D可直接从对话中听到,故为答案。
