Florence Sephton is 77 and lives in Deganwy, North Wales. She is reading for an arts de-gree, "I’m more of a creature to polish my mind than polish my furniture. The house takes second place while I put the studying first. "
"I was very happy at school and had wonderful teaching. I passed the university entrance examination and was ready to go to university but with World War I went into banking. I was paid 1 pound a week. Manchester University kept my place open for three years but I was enjoying the money and the freedom so I turned it down. " Mrs. Sephton is now in the second year of her Open University course and is finding it hard work. She underestimates her ability. "I’m feeling tired more frequently. I can’t do more than an hour’s work at a time. The memory’s shocking. I’m supposed to be revising and I look up notes I did earlier this year and think, ’ Have you read this before?’ So I’m doing it very slowly—one credit a year, so it’ll take six years. "
"At the moment the greatest reward is simply the increase in knowledge—and the discipline. I had an essay failed this week. The professor said I hadn’t answered the question. I’ve been thinking about it all week. I know I haven’t got the facility for essay construction. I just let myself go and get excited. I feel more emotionally than I do mentally. I’m very ordinary really. "
Claiming to be ordinary and lazy, Mrs. Sephton is still working hard daily at her assignments. Mrs. Sephton sees her studies as keeping her fit and independent. "Because of my life I’ve been self-sufficient. It’s not a very nice characteristic. It means I don’t care enough about people. I can’t say I find comfort in what I’ll be learning, so I’ll be interested to see if there’s a life ahead. "
Florence thinks that______.
选项
A、she’s hard-working
B、she has a strong character
C、she’s rather lazy
D、she depends on other people
答案
C
解析
本题问弗洛伦斯认为她怎样。根据文章最后一段的内容,在声称自己平凡和懒惰的同时,塞福顿太太每天仍在努力地做作业。塞福顿太太把学习视为保持健康和独立的方式。因此,我们可以推知本题的正确答案应是C“她认为她自己很懒惰”。
