Dear Alice,
I just received your letter. And I was very surprised to know that you decided to drop out of school and wanted to be a model (模特).
Being a model for a living is not easy. In fact, a famous person like me has a lot of problems that you couldn’t see. I can’t eat what I like, even though I’m very hungry. Keeping thin makes me look more beautiful on the stage because no one would like to see a heavy model.
Besides, I have to wear a heavy coat in the hot sun, in a swimming suit in the cold air. And practicing walking nicely every day is tiring for me.
You might say I made much money from modeling. But my dear niece (侄女), you have to know that money is, nothing, knowledge is everything. School is important and everyone should go to school for a certain period of time. The longer they stay at school, the better they will be. Very often, I hope I can give up my job and continue my studies at school. But it is very difficult for me to go back to school again. I am too old to go back to school now.
You are a pretty young girl with a bright future. You only have one year to finish your studies in high school. A year is really short. Please do consider my words carefully before you decide. Of course, there is only one thing I care about, and that is your happiness.
Love,
Emma

答案:
(答案→)D
解析:
文章是书信体,姑姑Emma写给侄女Alice的信,叫她认真考虑做模特赚钱还是继续学习的事情。
1. D 根据I was very surprised to know that you decided to drop out of school and wanted to be a model可知她吃惊的是她的侄女想从学校出来做模特,故选D(不完成学业)。
2. C 细节题。从I am too old to go back to school now可知Emma太老了不能回学校,她错过了学习的最佳时机,选C。
3. A 根据最后一段You only have one year to finish your studies in high school可知Alice还有一年高中毕业,故选A。
4. B 由文章最后一句there is only one thing I care about, and that is your happiness可知选B。
5. A 根据Emma的讲述Keeping thin makes me look more beautiful on the stage because no one would like to see a heavy model可知她是个模特,故A对。B答案不对,从I have to wear a heavy coat in the hot sun…她必须可看出是没办法,而不是喜欢;C答案文章没说,这里还只是在劝说回学校;D答案与原文不符,原文说的是:I can’t eat what I like, even though I’m very hungry。
