Question

【題目】Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis was one of the most private women in the world, yet when she went to work as an editor in the last two decades of her life, she revealed（展現(xiàn)）herself as she did nowhere else.

After the death of her second husband, Greek shipping magnate（巨頭）Aristotle Onassis, Jacqueline’s close friend and former White House social secretary Letitia Baldrige made a suggestion that she consider a career in publishing. After consideration, Jacqueline accepted it. Perhaps she hoped to find there some idea about how to live her own life. She became not less but more interested in reading. For the last 20 years of her life, Jacqueline worked as a publisher’s editor, first at Viking, then at Doubleday, pursuing（追求）a late-life career longer than her two marriages combined. During her time in publishing, she was responsible for managing and editing more than 100 successfully marketed books. Among the first books were In the Russian Style and Inventive Paris Clothes. She also succeeded in persuading TV hosts Bill Moyer’s and Jose Campbell to transform their popular television conversations into a book, The Power of Myth. The book went on to become an international best-seller. She dealt, too, with Michael Jackson as he prepared his autobiography（自傳）, Moonwalk.

Jacqueline may have been hired for name and for her social relations, but she soon proved her worth. Her choices, suggestions and widespread social relations were of benefit both to the publishing firms and to Jacqueline herself. In the books she selected for publication, she built on a lifetime of spending time by herself as a reader and left a record of the growth of her mind. Her books are the autobiography she never wrote. Her role as First Lady, in the end, was overshadowed by her performance as an editor. However, few knew that she had achieved so much.

試題分析：本文對(duì)第一夫人作為編輯的卓越表現(xiàn)做了簡(jiǎn)介。

【1】D細(xì)節(jié)分析題。根據(jù)第一段最后一句, she revealed（展現(xiàn)）herself as she did nowhere else.此人做了編輯后，充分展現(xiàn)了自己，這是她在其他任何領(lǐng)域都沒有過的，所以可以推斷這個(gè)工作讓她很受益。故選D

【2】A細(xì)節(jié)分析題。根據(jù)最后一段倒數(shù)第二句， Her role as First Lady, in the end, was overshadowed by her performance as an editor，故她作為編輯的表現(xiàn)使她第一夫人的角色黯然失色，推斷她做編輯更加成功，故選A

【3】B推理分析題。第二段第四句，A不符；根據(jù)最后一段第四句In the books she selected for publication, she built on a lifetime of spending time by herself as a reader and left a record of the growth of her mind。她挑選出版的書里面，她在闡述自己一生的讀書經(jīng)歷以及成長(zhǎng)的心路歷程，所以推測(cè)在她的書里面自然是有她自己的觀點(diǎn)，故選B

【4】A總結(jié)分析題。本文通篇都在簡(jiǎn)要介紹她做編輯的一些事情，即簡(jiǎn)要描述了她的編輯生涯，故選A
