问题 In which of the following works can you find the proper names "Lilliput," "Brobdingnag," "Houyhnhnm," and "Yahoo"?
选项 A、James Joyce’s Ulysses
B、Charles Dickens’s Bleak House
C、Jonathan Swift’s Gulliver’s Travels.
D、Lawrence’s Woman in love.
答案C
解析 “Lilliput，”“Brobdingnag，”“Houyhnhnm，”和“Yahoo”这些怪异的名字，都是英国过去人们生活中不存在的事物，是作家故意杜撰出来以体现故事本身的不真实性。它们是Jonathan Swift的作品 Gulliver’s Travels中的地名和人名。该故事集中有大人国、小人国等虚构的故事。题中特殊词汇出现在这样的作品中也就不足为怪了，因而本题答案为C。
