【題目】 Jo Usmar is a writer for Cosmopolitan and co-author of the lifestyle books. Here she picks her top reads.

Frankly in Love by David Yoon

There are some books I would never pick up if it weren' t for review purposes and Frankly in Love is one of therm. I bad heard of this book and seen it all over Goodreads.

Within the first few pages of this book, I was all in. I think part of what was so engaging is that it's from he viewpoint of Frank Li, a teen of high school.

Game of Stars by Sayantani Dasgupta

Just like any 12-year-old girl, Kiran is just tying to figure out who she is. Unlike other 12-year-old girls, however, she has to0 deal with titles like "princess and "demon slayer (魔鬼殺手)”. She happens to be a princess from the Kingdom Beyond, a world where gods and demons existed. Now it is up to her to save the kingdom and be the hero.

Abraham Lincoln:Vampire Hunter by Seth Grahame-Smith

This is a remarkable book. The depth of the story went far beyond my expectations. The author paints a picture of Lincoln, a portrait (肖像) of strength, determination, and sacrifice in the face of personal and national disaster. Although some readers may find it rude to use a great leader of the United States in a fictional action book for entertainment, Grahame Smith tries to preserve an air of dignity and honor in the character of Lincoln.

1What does the book Frankly in Love probably show to readers?

A.A world in a teen's eye.

B.The building of a new country.

C.The life of a famous politician.

D.Ways of becoming a top student.

2If you don't like to read about sex, which do you prefer?

A.Frankly in Love

【解析】

這是一篇說(shuō)明文!妒澜缰髁x》的作家Jo Usmar列舉了她最喜歡看的幾本書(shū)。

1細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Frankly in Love by David Yoon部分的I think part of what was so engaging is that it's from he viewpoint of Frank Li, a teen of high school.可知,我認(rèn)為如此吸引人的部分原因是Frank Li的第三人稱視角,Frank Li是個(gè)十幾歲的高中生。因此,Frankly in Love給讀者展示的是十幾歲的人眼中的世界。故選A。

2細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Game of Stars by Sayantani Dasgupta部分的可知,Game of Stars不涉及性話題。因此,如果你不想讀與性有關(guān)的書(shū),你會(huì)喜歡Game of Stars。故選B

3細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Abraham Lincoln:Vampire Hunter by Seth Grahame-Smith部分的Although some readers may find it rude to use a great leader of the United States in a fictional action book for entertainment, Grahame Smith tries to preserve an air of dignity and honor in the character of Lincoln.可知,盡管一些讀者認(rèn)為,在一本虛構(gòu)的動(dòng)作書(shū)中,用美國(guó)的一位偉大的領(lǐng)袖來(lái)娛樂(lè)是粗魯?shù)模?/span>Grahame Smith還是試圖保存林肯這個(gè)角色的尊嚴(yán)和榮譽(yù)。因此,Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter的特別之處在于,他與一位國(guó)家領(lǐng)袖有關(guān)。故選C。
