五、阅读理解
This year the US will honour(纪念) one of the country's most famous writers—Mark Twain(1835－1910). Most readers know that his real name was Samuel Langhorne Clemens,
but how many know where the pen name “Mark Twain” came from?
The answer shows Clemens's colourful early life before he became a writer. “Mark Twain” was the cry shouted on a ship when the ship entered a part of a river that was two fathoms(6 feet) deep. “Twain” is an old－fashioned way of saying “two”. Twain trained as a ship pilot on the Mississippi river for two years, a time when he wrote the humorous Life on the
Mississippi(1883)．
The famous river became an important theme in many of his works—who could forget the journey of Huck and Jim along it in his most famous book, The Ad v entures of Huckleberry Finn(1884)?
With little education, he had to teach himself how to write stories. Whenever possible, he would go to public libraries. There he spent much time reading and thinking, which greatly helped him with his writing.
On the other hand, his life experiences gave him wonderful material to write about and attract readers. Twain wrote in a style that has been called “local colour” because it shows great knowledge of local people and their customs.
The gift is very clear in the two books for which Twain is still celebrated today: The Ad v entures of Tom Sa w yer(1876) and its follow－up The Ad v entures of Huckleberry Finn, which many people call “The Great American Novel”．
The most amazing invention in his book is the voice of Huck himself. Huck did not enjoy
schooling. It shows in the way he uses language, in a spoken style. Only a master like Twain could copy the way a young southern boy talked so well.
()1.What does the underlined word “gift” mea n in the passage?
A. Twain's talent for self－teaching.
B. Twain's “local colour” writing style.
C. Twain's good sense of humour.
D. Twain's experiences as a ship pilot.
()2. According to the passage, what is the best part of The Ad v entures of Huckleberry Finn?
A. The deep social meaning.
B. The exciting life experiences.
C. The special way that Huck talks.
D. The nice view of the Mississippi.
()3.Which is the most suitable place in the passage for the sentence, “Twain did not come from the writer's background you might expect.”？
A. At the beginning of Paragraph 2.
B. At the beginning of Paragraph 3.
C. At the beginning of Paragraph 4.
D. At the beginning of Paragraph 5.
()4. What is the passage mainly about?
A. Mark Twain's career as a great writer.
B. Mark Twain's interest in describing local life.
C. Mark Twain's achievements in American literature field.
D. Mark Twain's life experiences which influenced his writing.
