Did Sarah Josepha Hale write "Mary’ s Little Lamb" , the eternal nursery rhyme (儿歌) about a girl named Mary with a stubborn lamb? This is still disputed, but it’ s clear that the woman【C1】______for writing it was one of America’ s most fascinating【C2】______. In honor of the poem’ s publication on May 24, 1830, here’ s more about the【C3】______author’ s life.
Hale wasn’ t just a writer, she was also a【C4】______social advocate, and she was particularly【C5】______with an ideal New England, which she associated with abundant Thanksgiving meals that she claimed had "a deep moral influence". She began a nationwide【C6】______to have a national holiday declared that would bring families together while celebrating the【C7】______festivals. In 1863, after 17 years of advocacy including letters to five presidents, Hale got it. President Abraham Lincoln, during the Civil War, issued a【C8】______setting aside the last Thursday in November for the holiday.
The true authorship of "Mary’ s Little Lamb" is disputed. According to the New England Historical Society, Hale wrote only part of the poem, but claimed authorship. Regardless of the author, it seems that the poem was【C9】______by a real event. When young Mary Sawyer was followed to school by a lamb in 1816, it caused some problems. A bystander named John Roulstone wrote a poem about the event, then, at some point, Hale herself seems to have helped write it. However, if a 1916 piece by her great-niece is to be trusted, Hale claimed for the【C10】______of her life that " some other people pretended that someone else wrote the poem".
A) campaign I) proclamation
B) career J) rectified
C) characters K) reputed
D) features L) rest
E) fierce M) supposed
F) inspired N) traditional
G) latter O) versatile
H) obsessed [br] 【C2】
选项
答案
C
解析
空格前为形容词fascinating,故本空需要填入一个名词。结合句意可知,但显而易见的是,因创作这首诗歌而声名鹊起的黑尔女士是美国最杰出的人物之一。备选项中只有characters(特点,人物)符合句意,故答案为C。
