M: I didn’t see you in creative writing class today. What happened?
W: Oh, just a dentist appointment. That’s all. Say, did we get a new assignment for next week?
M: Yeah. A really interesting one, actually. [23]We’re supposed to write a short story that has some sort of limitation or, or, constraints imposed on it.
W: What do you mean? Like rhyming in a poem?
M: Well, that’ll be an idea. But what we write has to be prose, like prose poetry. Just to make rhyme in a poem is too easy, I guess. I think Prof. Eliot really wants to challenge us, to put our creativity to the test.
W: Well, did she give any hints about what she has in mind?
M: Not really, [24]but I may have an idea of the kind of thing she’s looking for. I just finished a really strange book by some French guy. He wrote a whole book without even using a single e.
W: A whole book without a single e? How’s it possible? But, wait a minute. I didn’t know you can read French.
M: I can’t. I read the English translation. But get this. There’s not one e in that either.
W: No way. Think of the words you couldn’t use.
M: I know, but that translator manages it. I got the book at home if you want to check out for yourself. [25]What’s really amazing to me is that leaving e in French is no easy job and doing it in English is gonna involve a complete different group of words. It’s a real work of mind.
W: Sometime you have to show me that book. But right now I’d better get going on the writing for next week.
23. What are the speakers assigned to write?
24. Why did the man mention a book by a French author?
25. What point does the man make about the letter e?
选项
A、It’s quite different when pronounced in French and English.
B、To write without using it is difficult both in English and in French.
C、Every word in the French author’s book contained it.
D、It’s commonly used in English to make poetry rhyme. Section B
答案
B
解析
四个选项都有 it,根据选项内容判断在此的 it应该指单词或是字母。男士说: “真正让我诧异的是在法语中不使用 e一点都不简单,而且在把它翻译成英语时也不使用 e需要完全不同的单词。真的是很费脑筋。 ”故答案是 B。
