下面是一篇有关书籍介绍的应用文,请阅读下列应用文和相关信息,并按照要求匹配信息。

首先请阅读下列应用文:

A

I Am a Pencil

Sam Swope's job was teaching writing to third-graders in New York City. His students were from 21 countries, speaking 11 languages, with different backgrounds. But there were a few things they had in common. Family troubles, for one. Money struggles. And poetry. Every single student, with the help of this creative teacher, came forth with awesome writing. Swope leaves the reader with the inspiring conviction (坚信) that deep within each of us lives a poet.

B

Between a Rock and a Hard Place

Aron Ralston, 28, went hiking in a remote Utah canyon without telling anyone. An unexpected catastrophe struck. With enough supplies only for a day, Ralston knew his situation was full of danger. Sure enough, after five days he was in a fight against death. That was when he carried out a courageous plan - using a pocket knife to cut off his trapped arm. His amazing survival story rests at a place among the classics of the genre (体裁).

C

Our Brother's Keeper

Author Jedwin Smith spent 30 years trying to repress (克制) all memories of his brother, Jeff, who was killed in Vietnam. But in Our Brother's Keeper he tells what happens when the Internet brings him into contact with several of his brother's old Marine friends, including the guy who held Jeff in his arms as he died. First via e-mail, and then in person, Smith gets to know these men.

D

The All Americans

With his graduation from West Point, Henry Romanek sailed toward Omaha Beach on the eve of Dday. It was June 1944, and he was about to face the bloodiest battle of his life. Just yesterday, it seemed, he was a standout soldier on the Army team. Now, he was a leader of youngsters in battle, fighting, quite literally, for his country and the future of the free world. In this book, Lars Anderson retraces Romanek's life and that of three other soldiers.

E

Copies in Seconds

With the push of a button, anyone can make copies of almost anything - unlike the old days, when papers had to be rewritten long-hand, carbon-copied out of fussy mimeograph machines (蜡纸油印机). In Copies in Seconds, David Owen showed how a shy engineer named Chester Carlson perfected his xerography machine (静电复印机) and shopped it around until finally hooking up with the Haloid Corporation. That partnership led to the Xerox copier and changed the face of work forever.

F

State of Grace

Back in the late 1950s and early 1960s, the Lynvets was just a football team in a sandy New York City neighborhood. But to most of its members - the author, Robert Timberg, included - the team was their only experience of a happy family, their only chance to rise above terrible everyday circumstances, their only shot at being heroes. The friendships these men formed sustained (维持) them throughout their lives.

Like many men at some point, I dream about opening a bar. I plan to call it Work Out. It will cater to married women in need of a little fun. On Friday nights, they will be able to come here and enjoy themselves.
See, I have a gift for business. I am, as my wife Zsa Zsa likes to note, “A man with a million ideas, none of them very good.” Speaking of Zsa Zsa, she is fed up with this plain little life I’ve made for us——too many kids, too many chores, mind – numbing debt. The other day, she said she thought we needed a new family car. “Sure. How about an 87 Lincoln?” I said, and saw my dear Zsa Zsa age about 20 years, and become her mother right before my eyes.
Yes, money is our madness. Last year, we thought we had found a little cushion when I published a book about the life here in suburban America. It sold 12 copies——six of them to my mother. Four other copies went to various aunts and uncles, who used them for martini coasters (杯垫), then sold them at yard sales. The two remaining copies went to perfect strangers. (I think I owe you dinner, whoever you are. Call me, OK? We’ll arrange something.)
When the book didn’t take off, I wrote a TV show. Then I penned a short novel based on the earlier TV idea that didn’t sell. Currently, I am at work on a set of encyclopedias(百科全书). In a month, I plan to sell them door – to – door.
Such is the life of a writer, sending off the most personal thoughts possible to his hard drive. I am a writer, but also the breadwinner in my family. I’m at the keyboard at 6 almost every morning, hoping to tap out one idea——just one——that will take us up the hill, to the mountain, to the top.
【小题1】According to the passage, the author is leading a/an         life.

A.enjoyableB.wealthyC.hardD.comfortable
【小题2】By saying “Sure. How about an 87 Lincoln?”, the author          .
A.promised it to his wifeB.was showing off their fortune
C.thought his wife would like itD.was just joking
【小题3】What was the result of the book the author mentioned in the 3rd paragraph?
A.It didn’t sell well at all.
B.He sold it door – to – door.
C.He made a lot of money from it.
D.It was really a cushion for his family.
【小题4】What does the underlined word “cushion” mean ?
A.Comfortable seat.
B.Financial help.
C.Unexpected success.
D.Best-selling book.
【小题5】From the account above, which of the following statements is true?
A.He has a real gift for business.
B.He isn’t serious enough about life.
C.He is a hard – working writer.
D.His wife is satisfied with their plain life.

“Daddy, can I have a piece of cake?” my oldest son asked me.

We had just been to the gym and stopped to   31  at the restaurant.

“No,” I replied, “you don’t need a piece of cake.”

My son   32  15 in a few days. He   33  over 6 feet tall. He is very slim and athletic in shape. It was not always that way. My wife wrote a book about the challenge and   34  of getting him fit. He now takes it   35  and looks as he’s never been overweight in his life.

He had a full plate of   36  and tofu. He didn’t need a piece of cake. Besides, everything in the restaurant is quite   37 . Our dinners could have   38  a family of seven at a fast food restaurant. That cake probably cost $5.

I looked at my   41 . There sitting on the edge was a piece of   42 . I looked at it wondering but also knowing how it got there. “We will divide it,” I said.
