Subject: The Great Haze
Dear Mr. Timmons,
Ronald Walker has recommended that I contact you regarding editing work.
We are currently looking for someone to perform final edits on a simplified version of The Great Haze, by Seth Mirren. It consists of 112 pages including glossary, notes, illustrations, etc. The simplified version is aimed at typical 3rd-5th grade elementary school students; it has also already been partially edited.
The work will involve checking to make sure the vocabulary in the simplified version is not too difficult for the target audience, and that grammar and punctuation are correct. Usually Ronald returns the hard copy with amendments highlighted —this helps us make a final decision about each change. We would aim to mail the work out to you during the first week of August.
Please would you be able to tell me:
if you are interested in doing the work
how long you think it will take
how much you would charge to do it
Please, could you get back to me as soon as possible and let me know if it is possible for you to do the work?
Many thanks and kind regards,
Sarah Pittman
Editor, Elementary School Guides
MacHenry Publishing, Inc.
What does Sarah Pittman imply about The Great Haze?

选项 A、It was a best-selling book.
B、It has already been illustrated.
C、It was originally more than 100 pages long.
D、It was originally written at a more difficult level.

答案D

解析 考生可在第二段和第三段中找到关键性的线索。文段特别说明简化版是以小学3至5年级学生为对象(The simplified version is aimed at typical 3rd-5th grade elementary school students),应该确认词汇不是很难(The work will involve checking to make sure the vocabulary in the simplified version is not too difficult for the target audience)。由此可以推测原来的版本应该水准更高,故而(D)是正确答案。短文中说明简化版是112页(It consists of 112 pages),但并未提及原来的版本的页数,因此(C)是不正确的。
