  Alice became friends with Jane and would   6   talk to her at lunch.She did it that way in order to avoid the other kids   7   her.

  On her birthday last month, she   8   her new friend to her birthday party, but Jane said she couldn't come.Alice wanted her to be   9   so much that she   10   on her coming.Eventually, the girl said,“I don't have any   11   clothes that I could wear at your birthday party.”After a brief pause, the girl remembered,“I have a   12   from my piano performance,”and asked,“Could I   13   a skirt from you?”

  Alice was happy that her friend would be   14   to come and hurried home to ask her Mum   15   she could lend her friend one of her skirts.To her surprise, her Mum said,“No.”The daughter was very   16   and angrily said to her Mum,“  17   I could, I would give my friend all my clothes.”The Mother didn't understand why her daughter should have had such an outburst as she's normally very well   18  

  Finally, Alice explained to her Mother her friend's   19  .Her Mother immediately changed her mind and said,“Yes.”She also encouraged her daughter not to feel like she should secretly be friends with Jane but to feel proud of her   20   with her.

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中,选出最佳选项。

  Susan Sontag (1933~2004) was one of the most noticeable figures in the world of literature. For more than 40 years she made it morally necessary to know everything---to read every book worth reading, to see every movie worth seeing. When she was still in her early thirties, publishing essays in such important magazines as. Partisan Review, she appeared as the symbol of American cultural life, trying hard to follow every new development in literature, film and art. With great effort and serious judgment, Sontag walked at the latest edge of world culture.

  Seriousness was one of Sontag's lifelong watchwords, but at a time when the barriers between the well-edu-cated and the poor-educated were obvious, she argued for a true openness to the pleasures of pop culture. In Notes on Camp, the 1964 essay that first made her name, she explained what was then a little-known set of difficult un-derstandings, through which she could not have been more famous. "Notes on Camp", she wrote, represents "a victory of 'form' over 'content', 'beauty' over 'morals'".

  By conviction (信念) she was a sensualist (感觉论者), but by nature she was a moralist (伦理学者), and in the works she published in the 1970s and 1980s, it was the latter side of her that came forward. In Illness as Metaphor---published in 1978, after she suffered cancer---she argued against the idea that cancer was somehow a special problem of repressed personalities (被压抑的个性), a concept that effectively blamed the victim for the disease. In fact, re-examining old positions was her lifelong habit.

  In America her story of a 19th century Polish actress who set up perfect society in California, won the National Book Award in 2000. But it was tireless, all-purpose cultural view that she made her lasting fame. "Sometimes," she once said. "I feel that, in the end, all I am really defending... is the idea of seriousness, of true seriousness." And in the end, she made us take it seriously too.

(1) The underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 means Sontag ________.

[  ]

A.was a symbol of American cultural life

B.developed world literature, film and art

C.published many essays about world culture

D.kept pace with the newest development of world culture

(2) She first won her name through ________.

[  ]

A.her story of a Polish actress

B.her book Illness as Metaphor

C.publishing essays in magazines like Partisan Reoiew

D.her explanation of a set of difficult understandings

(3) According to the passage, Susan Sontag ________.

[  ]

A.was a sensualist as well as a moralist

B.looked down upon the pop culture

C.thought content was more important than form

D.blamed the victim of cancer for being repressed

(4) As for Susan Sontag's lifelong habit, she ________.

[  ]

B.re-examined old positions

C.argued for an openness to pop culture
