Ann Richards was a famous Democratic Party politician from the southern state of Texas. She served as the governor of Texas for four years. [20]Richards was known for her big white hair, big smile, and sharply funny comments. She was also known for forming what she called a "New Texas" during her time as governor. She created a government in which women, Hispanics, and African-Americans played important roles. Ann Richards did not always have a career in public service. As a young woman, she worked as a teacher and raised four children. She and her husband were very involved in local politics. Richards began working hard to help Democratic Party candidates win seats in the Texas legislature. Then one day, she decided to run for office herself—and she won. [21]She served first as country commissioner, then as Texas state treasurer. In 1990 she was elected governor. She fought for equal rights, environmental protection and laws to restrict guns. After losing a second term as governor to George W. Bush, Richards worked in public relations. She died this September at the age of seventy-three. At her funeral service, leaders from around the country gathered to celebrate her life. Former President Bill Clinton spoke at the service. [22]He said Ann Richards helped create a world where young girls could be scientists, engineers and police officers. He said she was a great woman with a big heart and big dreams.
20.What does the speaker say about Ann Richards?
21.What did Ann Richards do before she worked as the treasurer of Texas?
22.What do we learn from the words of Bill Clinton?
选项
A、Ann Richards created a world for all the young people.
B、Ann Richards was the greatest feminist in the US.
C、Ann Richards helped young girls find their places.
D、Ann Richards was a kind-hearted person.
答案
C
解析
短文提到Clinton的评价,说Ann Richards使女孩子能成为科学家、工程师和警察,故C正确。Clinton的评价只有针对她为年轻女孩的贡献,并不是所有的年轻人,故A错误;B没有在短文中提到;D是利用短文中的heart设置的干扰项,与短文的意思不符,可排除。
