32、 best-sellers. Richard Jenkyns, a professor of English at Oxford University, says that her novels are about marriage, friendships and the family, which are still with us today. “The stories are timeless,”Jenkyns said. Pride and Prejudice(偏见 )(1813) is Austens most famous work. It is a love story abo
33、ut Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy. At first, these two dislike each other. Elizabeth is pretty ,smart and lively. She is proud because Darcy doesnt know about her family.

35、them to. In Pride and Prejudice, some of the main things that Jane Austen wants to teach people are as follows. Opposites can attract each other. Lovers should not only make each other feel relaxed or comfortable, but also educate and improve each other. Austen os often called the greatest romanti w

38、h and Darcy fall in love at first sight. B. Elizabeth has a better family background than Darcy. C.Darcy has a first good impression of Elizabeths family. D. Elizabeth and Darcy become a romantic couple in the end. 解析：事实判断题。第三段最后一句他们俩 finally fall in love.A,B,C 项的错误分别是：他们俩一开始相互不喜欢 -第三段第三句； Darcy 的 家
39、庭更好点 -第三段第五句； Darcy 一开始是不知道 Elizabeth 的家庭 -第三段第四句。所以答案： D。 答案： D 36. What does the underlined word”vulgar” in Paragraph 3 mean?
